My husband and I live within our means and budget and hope our children will learn from example. His usual diet of sugar and white bread has not served his health well. In light of these recent events, I have found that I’m not only serving as the primary caregiver for my own children, but my parents as well.

“ Did you know that in 2014, women working full time in the United States typically were paid just 79 percent of what men were paid, a gap of 21 percent?” The gender pay gap is alive and well – but why?

I have posted several images of checks sent to me by paid survey companies on my niche site as well as on my blog. These are just a handful of examples to demonstrate that money can be made by completing paid online surveys.

As an IT consultant, you’d more than likely be able to offer remote services as well as on-site assistance, giving you freedom and flexibility while working in a field that’s in high demand.

My husband works as an architect and I teach art part time at my son’s school. We save and try to manage our finances, but do so with an openness to give money away as well. Were there arguments during the time you were working on your debt? We strive to be a pretty active family.

I also had a blog several years ago (a little more on that below), but these days I write periodic essays at A Word on Substack as well as short, inspiring (I hope) messages most mornings at Good Notes.

Gently used clothing, baby items, furniture, electronics, small appliances, books, fitness equipment, and tools sell well. 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.
