I currently work part-time from home, mostly behind a computer. She wasn’t opposed to buying things new, but she kept everything until it wore out, cars, appliances, furniture, and she took great care of all of it. Here’s Beth: 1. Tell us a little about yourself. I’m 52.

Our mom stayed home to raise us kids; she went to work part-time in the local school system after both my brother and I were in school.

My husband drives for Uber every time he comes home from overseas and makes around $1000 a month working part-time. Facebook Marketplace (and local buy/sell groups) have made it much easier.
