Comments on: Yes, this update is a tad late ;) http://www.girlndebt.com/yes-this-update-is-a-tad-late.html Follow me on my journey to get out of this debt mess Tue, 31 Jan 2012 17:25:35 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: girlndebt http://www.girlndebt.com/yes-this-update-is-a-tad-late.html/comment-page-1#comment-559 girlndebt Tue, 27 Oct 2009 21:02:30 +0000 http://www.girlndebt.com/?p=694#comment-559 Thanks J! I thought the exact same thing. Heck, I think everything is a scam-because half the time they usually are :). I started out writing a few articles for a site a while back and made a few bucks. I got excited. I would read various writing forums and WAHM forums and paid attention to advice from people that actually do this full-time for a living. I found other companies to get my feet wet with by doing that and have been so happy with the outcome! The sites I work for from what I hear aren't the top payers, but I will admit I am not exactly upset by that. I am new to this and don't expect to get paid the big bucks that an experienced writer would make. When I get that experience, yes I would want to be paid for it. In time I hope. I am happy with the pay so far. The real passive income though is in the niche blogs/sites I talk about. I have a few and have let them sit. It is funny, I neglect my own sites but write content for others...lol. I am gonna work on those tonight. I wish I knew about a lot of this stuff when I was knee deep in debt. No wait--not knee deep...drowning in debt! This may have helped us with settlements. But I still have no regrets. For as much debt as we had, I am just grateful we are no longer suffering. Gosh it was hard. We lived and learned and will never go back again. Doing all these things like being frugal and cutting coupons, surveys, writing, and saving will definitely keep us out of debt. Even if I keep working a day job or if the writing for some reason doesn't work out, I know now to always have a few things lined up. My eggs will never be in one basket--that's for sure. :) Thanks J! I thought the exact same thing. Heck, I think everything is a scam-because half the time they usually are :) .

I wish I knew about a lot of this stuff when I was knee deep in debt. No wait–not knee deep…drowning in debt! This may have helped us with settlements. But I still have no regrets. For as much debt as we had, I am just grateful we are no longer suffering. Gosh it was hard. We lived and learned and will never go back again. Doing all these things like being frugal and cutting coupons, surveys, writing, and saving will definitely keep us out of debt.

Its awesome you have money in savings, and glad the job worked out with 4 days. Are you really making money freelancing? I always hear about it but never really knew anyone that could make a go of it. It's awesome if you are, and then just keep it up! If you could make it work than maybe you have a new profession! : ) Hey glad things are working out, hope everyone is feeling better now!
