Hello all, So I'm a n00b here & hoping to learn the ropes from all the fine folks here. I've recently gone through several devastating life changes that have impacted me in everyway. I've always been self employed, am licensed in a few areas & have extensive backgrounds in a few others. How ever due to what I've gone thru I am unable to do almost everything I've spent my life doing. I'm now disabled, homebound & trying to do what ever I can to earn a living as I no longer have an income. It's been tremendously scary, painfull & I just want to regain some normalcy in my life. I have 2 goldens that are my babies that thru all the miserable devistation, put a smile on my face every day. I have always been a hard worker, been able to provide myself & my kiddos a good life. Not being able to work & living off what little savings I have left has been terrifying, especially w/ever mounting medical bills. I've had to cut everything that is not dire out of my life even things I've had to rely on for most my life due to a spinal chord disability as I can no longer afford them. That has also impacted my situation. Not in a million years did I ever envision my life going in this direction so I'm trying to do all I can. Anyhow I hope to learn all I can from this forum, members & vets, as well as make some new friends. I look forward to meeting you & hope to be able to contribute all that I can as well. Thanks for stopping by, take care, TWNC
I'm in a similar boat. I lost my job and had to move after getting sick. It feels great to be making any money at all--even if it's just $27 like today. I didn't earn anything from Oct '13 until mid-June when I discovered mTurk.
