Specific Ways to Improve Income

                 I am going to give, offer you positive way to bring more money into your home, your life, way of living to help you pay off your mortgage sooner and I am dead serious.
         Okay so most of you know all about, get an extra part time job. Well usually that part time job in you live in a big city cost more to get there and back again, leaving you making little towards that extra bill and so on. Living in the country, you know you need a car.
     So here are some part time jobs you don't want, newspaperman/woman, bartender, bodyguard, babysitter, unless it can be done in your home.
    My interest in putting this out there is because I was presented with it the same way, that I could consider it a part-time job, but there isn't anything part time about it. It is definitely full-time and can be very wearing. Here goes: Foster Care.
    Talk to your spouse or partner or if a single person, talk to your self. This take planning. You are bringing a child into your home you know nothing about, except for what is written on paper. As you go you learn more. Habits, sleeping, food, clothing , like, hates and more. So starting off, you can actually choose age, and gender as well as culture.
   When I started I was told I would be paid once a month and then it helped me beyond belief as I was single, worked full time in mental health, brought home very little and also worked part time as a youth advocate where I spent my whole measly check on the kids, but I enjoyed it very much.
    Adoption is another issue that comes up with foster care. You may be asked if you would consider being a pre-adoptive parent. Adoptive continue to get a monthly stipend for the child they adopt to help with financial needs and get this, which sounds awful. They want you to negotiate !!!
   Here is my advice if you think about checking into this. Look into foster care agencies. Do Not go right to Children and Youth. Children and youth barely pay you what might amount to babysitting for half a day. There are so many kids who need a home and you could be that one person or family who gives a child or children a chance at a whole brand new life. It isn't easy at all, but it is definitely worth it. Good Luck to  new foster parents. By the way, you can live in an apartment, home, mobile home, just not a tent:)

College, Voc. College , Military or Missionary

      Don't waste your money or your parents money. While it's hard to know at seventeen or eighteen what you want to be when you grow up, just look at your parents, and talk to them. Just as important talk to other parents. How many parents went back to school because either they didn't finish or they always wanted to be something else?
      YOU HAVE CHOICES ! YOU have to pay back student loans or they come after you. Just when you finally get that job you've waited for so long, in it about a year, the notice comes, you owe....thousands of dollars. How freaking scary is that?
It can ruin your credit! So USE your choices before College. YOU can go to traditional college, check out the vocational schools. We are not all meant to be teachers, scientists, historians, doctors(but we sure need them all)
      What about joining the service for both men and women? Have you thought about volunteering for missionary work? YOU get to see new places and I say that with a smile as we know most of the new places you'll see but well worth it. How many young adults do that?  Then there's mommy hood and/ or daddy hood. Do you want to just settle down and marry? That too isn't meant for everyone. IT cost a lot of money and love. Love isn't measurable, not the kind you need for marriage and babies, so choose wisely. This is your life!
