@Moore Income You're a good husband Jon. It's always best when both spouses are on the same page with all spending. It's great to me that you put thought into your wife's gift. In this case, flowers or candy would have been a thoughtless gift and wasted money. My brother in law is horrible to his wife all year long, but ALWAYS buys her flowers on Valentine's Day. If I was her, I'd tell him give me the money and save up for a divorce. My husband is great to me all year long and I get an extra...Read More...

Good morning! Glad to see you here. Good luck with that medical bill. I hope you have documentation that it was paid! It's always hard when dealing with a large organization.Read More...

Yes! I believe that gratitude is the key. Being grateful for what we do have, does not mean that we cannot strive to better ourselves, it just means to be grateful in the moment. And before someone talks about how there's nothing to be grateful for and how I don't understand dire situations, I do. I practiced gratitude (NOT even close to perfectly though!) when in the same 6 months I went though cancer, divorce, job loss, loss of house, move, bankruptcy, and more. I am grateful to be where I...Read More...

It is so true, money can become something that consumes our entire life, it shouldn't be that way but it is a subject that affects each and every one of us. I have come to realize that worrying about it doesn't help me at all, but that doesn't make it easy. I try to remind myself on a consistent basis that I am taking steps, even if they are just baby steps to go in the right direction to get my finances on track. That is why, I believe it is super important to celebrate our financial WINS...Read More...

Thanks @MsKimberly I have noticed that the items I have sold in the past couple weeks have all been related to light in some way. It must just be the time of the year. That being said, I did actually pick up some other light bulbs the other day that should bring me in a decent profit once I get them listed and sold.Read More...

Clothes do not sell well for me. Executive desk chairs and vacuum cleaners are excellent sellers.Read More...

Great question @MsKimberly ! I would say for me, the category of item that has been the biggest waste would have to be glassware. It is not so much that glassware isn't valuable... it actually does sometimes sell for a lot of money. I is more so the fact that I don't really have a good understanding of the market and nearly every time I ship it, no matter how well I package it, it ends up breaking on me and I waste a lot of time and money trying to make sure the buyer is happy and resolving...Read More...

I agree with you. Definitely worth checking out. I like to have my hands in as many pots as I'm able to. Thanks again.Read More...

Hi @BearWarrior , It depends on what you're trying to accomplish. There is no 'get rich quick' scheme out there except for the scammers. There are ways to make money online, but you're only talking a few bucks a day. Unless you find a work from home job, you're not going to make a steady income. There are options such as online surveys, selling online through eBay/amazon/Etsy/etc, freelance online jobs such as translating or freelance writing. NONE of these require any money sent to anyone...Read More...
