My financial hardship story dates back to when I was 15.
15:I got pregnant.
16:I decided to keep and raise my son, and become successful regardless of the additional responsibility of being a single parent.
16-18:I continued to live with my parents and graduated high school 1 semester ahead of my class.
18-22:I moved out with my son so that I could get a student loan and pursue my post-secondary studies in hopes of becoming a teacher. I worked full-time in construction and went to school full-time, with little to no assistance from my son's father.
22:I got into a work-site accident, falling two stories in a high rise building downtown. Post-recovery, I dove straight back into work and abandoned my studies.
23-31:I worked and advanced nowhere, I received my Journeyman's Certification with no adjoining recognition or pay increase, all the while my brain was wasting away. I tried having relationships, all of which were unsuccessful because of my line of work, and because I was too pre-occupied trying to be a mother to my son.
32/present:I am desperate. My bills kept adding up, and this year it has caught up to me and has brought me to an all-time low. I don't understand how I got here...I was always that person who paid their bills early, paid more than the required amount, made 'dents' whenever I could...and now I am filing for a consumer proposal, my son and I have exhausted all favours and assistance from family, friends, and government programs, and are approaching the holiday season with no idea how I will cover the next months' rent. I work full-time, which means nothing in construction, it's winter, and I have recently returned to university to finish my bachelors' degree.
Truthfully, I'm hoping for a miracle. I want to continue my education. I want to provide for my son. I work my back off to put food on the table yet I can't seem to get ahead. I'm incredibly embarrassed to be in this situation.
My debts add up to $38,000. The cost of completing my bachelors program is estimated at 1.5 yrs, and $15,000. The cost of living for us, bare minimum, is $2800/mth. I have nowhere left to go, noone left to ask, and i feel myself giving up and becoming more and more depressed each day.
If money were no object, that is to say if I had no debts looming over me, I would choose to write, to teach, to inspire. And I would encourage my son to pursue what he loves.
We appreciate your consideration, and for the time it took you to read our story. I am sure that there are several other people on here that may abuse peoples' generosity, or even some that are more worthier candidates than us. Regardless, we thank you.

My family's monthly income is 300 Euros. My expenses per month are:
30 Euros- rent
38 Euros- electricity and water
20 Euros -kindergarten (the youngest son is 5 years old)
60 Euros - Nutrition at school (two children of school age 8 and 13)
The left amount 152 Euros for food (5 Euros per day)
I didn't included all unexpected expenses, ex. in two weeks I have to pay 20 Euros for my son's uniform. Also my daughter very often goes to various educational competitions (some of them are not free of charge).
Eight years ago I had enough for living. I was always happy to help people. But after economic crisis in our country my husband lost his job. Now he earns 13 Euros per day. I am a translator (everybody begins laugh that I don't have money), but I get very small projects or sometimes I sit without job for a few months. My university studies are not finished (lack of money to pay for education) so I can't bid for well paid European projects. Most of agencies pay only after 30 or even 60 days so how to survive all this period. We've borrowed money from neighbours, parents, husband's boss etc. just to have money for essential things. For ex. I've finished translation project for 150 dollars, but when I get them I'll have to give back these money to people who are waiting their money half a year. At the moment we have approx. 720 Euros of debts.
It would be wonderful to start from zero without debts. We are honest people and want to earn money honestly (without doing anything illegal in order to have a good life). We live in a small town where it's difficult to earn more than a minimum wage, but I am happy that my children are not ill. I would appreciate any your help.

Again, thank your for viewing my post. I won't forget to pay it foreword.

Make money by writing reviews - Music and Fashion |

You can earn money by writing reviews. Originally, this site would pay for song reviews, and now it also pays for fashion reviews. Just write your honest opinion of each song or item of clothing, and you get money everytime.
https://www.slicethepie.com/join/UBF76348
Music:
You are only required to listen to the first 90 seconds of each song, and you can make up to 12 cents per song review. This can add up pretty quickly and you able to cash out after accumulating $10.
Fashion:
For a limited time, you can get over $0.20 per fashion review. These add up really fast, and there is no music to listen to. Just look at the item, and give your opinions about it. I just reviewed 5 jackets in under 10 minutes, and got a very easy $1.10. I will definitely be visiting this site a few times a day to rack up some extra cash.
If you are ready to get started, here is the link:
https://www.slicethepie.com/join/UBF76348
Here's a hint: you can earn more per review if you type more words and are descriptive. Describe what you like and don't like, and use a variety of words. You can even use a thesaurus, if you start to run out of descriptive words.
If you don't care about fashion, you can opt to only review music.
Let me know if you try this and what you think. Also, post any questions here, and we can share tips on maximizing your earnings.

How did they get my email address? |

The most annoying thing about paypal is that creating the default donate button allows your email address to be displayed. It is not a big deal when you are transferring money to or from people you know, but when you are asking for a donation from strangers, it allows people to get your email address.
Usually, the worst is just a minor annoyance. I have heard reports of people receiving an email from someone who pretended to want to help, but asked for more information, sometimes even bank information. Obviously that is a red flag. Never give out your bank information, or any other information. The site was created to allow people to donate to you, and they can even write on your page, so there is no reason for them to contact you directly. The best way to deal with this is to ignore the email.
You can avoid your email address being shared by using a paypal.me or cash.me link.
If you have any questions or comments, feel free to post them.
