Thoughts on earning money

I’ve heard things on XM radio about getting your debt transformed, heard it over and over and over for a long time, so I decided to look into it today, just to see what it was about.

It’s not anything I’d want. I can figure things out fine if I want to.

Which led me to other pages online. Work At Home to earn money online … it’s just not my thing, not at all. How about the easy way, blog and get the information for how THAT can pay you … no thanks. My blog is just that, MY BLOG. My BLOGS in fact. I fund them, household money. My thoughts, no one subsidizing, no anything but honest what I’m thinking, what I’m doing, what has happened, what I have, what doesn’t work, how to fix something, blah, blah, blah.

That’s just it. I don’t regularly “blog” at all. I don’t read other’s blogs either, since $$$$$$$$ has hit so many these recent years I find it annoying to go to blogs that are setup with so much junk their content is behind a cloud, and I prefer sunny clear blogs. I have a cynical view of earning money … work = $

I prefer work to be valuable, something real is created. For me, my work is real, at home, and not a paid job. I am part of a family, my husband earns the money, that’s where mine comes from, I’m subsidized, you could say, but it’s a family unit thing. That’s quite different from a COMPANY/COMPANIES subsidizing someone. I mean this: My hubby works for someone doing things for them to make money, and he earns money due to effort. But it’s REAL world effort.

I would love to do something to earn some side money, but I already know what it would have to be. Artist-like, making blank books, embellishments, altered art, digital art, clear stamps, etc.

This is doing something with value, IMO.

I’m not knocking others doing things I don’t value. I do not value them and that is that. I just truly know that I am fully uncomfortable with online earning, just as I was uncomfortable with all the things my Dad used to do in the 1970’s & 1980’s –mail stuffing, get-rich-quick schemes … and other junk.

I know that “stuffing envelopes” is what some people do for extra money, but I’m just saying I don’t like it, it’s a lot of “work” for who? You, working for some company stuffing stuff into envelopes. It would be one thing if it were this, one thing if it was that. It’s up in the air, not necessarily bad, not necessarily good, not worth the paper cuts and dry hands first off (something I’m prone to.)

The other thing is phones bug me. I don’t want to be in the position to HAVE to call anyone. I have been through lots of phone work in the past, my last being something so hateful it has driven me to disdain phone work, any that isn’t just my immediate family.

So much is sign up free online … oh, to cancel, you have to CALL us. Ick. Ridiculous.

I’m all over the map here, talking about lots of ways you can earn money online … lots of different other things … all involving working at home … I guess I’d love to be paid for something I MAKE, and that is that. So I’m no good to earn money without putting effort and money into something. It’s the old adage, “You need to money to make money.” Amen.

I’m modern and old fashioned. Nothing new.

Anyhow, I have to figure out dinner, get my children doing their chores, educational stuff instead of playing, etc. If I want to earn money, I’ll do something that’s fun, and it ain’t fun trying to keep track of complex offers, sit and do something that has no value to me except money and time. Nope. I’m totally a “create something” person, artist, let me make something, and if you buy it great. I haven’t ever sold anything like that. I’m more talking about the future, as I have more time to create as things as the children get more self-sustaining, and hubby gives me the tools I really need to do more.
