Can Anybody Provide Assistance Please - In a Precarious Situation?

Hey All

I am in a precarious situation at the moment and could use some help please...

Having tried for almost 2 years to make money online (tried everything to try sort out a awful financial position...

To make matters worse due to all the stress coming with the financial stress, spending 7 days a week online to try to earn some extra money my marriage broke down too...

Thus going through divorce and my financial situation has even worsened...trying to also provide for my 3 children when they stay with me....I need to also pay Child Maintenance Care...

Which I want to do, but have no money at the moment...the first bill is to be paid at 10th November, otherwise I end up in court.

What I am asking is there anybody who knows of a genuine way to be able to make about £325 (about $250) by that date...

Something that doesn't cost money, can be implemented easily by anybody.

(I bought 'Choose Income' - but the $5 per article writing for Yahoo Content Network is only for US citizens and the CPA bit - sending visitors to pages for lead generation / freebies - did not work as all CPA networks denied my applications sofar...)

Hope some of you out there know of a genuine way to make some money to pay the Child Care bill by the 10th November.

Really appreciate your time and help to provide some info...

Warm regards
Arjen

    How about getting a project-based gig on your strength on Odesk/eLance etc?

    Fiverr.com. Put up like 20+ different services like article writing or directory submissions and such. You can probably get a bunch of the money you need fairly quickly though it will put a lot of work on your shoulders.

    That would work. You could also offer writing services here, or on Fiverr.

    Sorry to hear about your situation.

    I have to agree that the fiverr.com is probably the best way to make fast income.

    Write down what you think you are good at doing and use that as a starting point on what you think you can offer. Go to fiverr.com and look at all the categories that are listed there to see if you can get any ideas in case you can't think of any.

    Just in case you are not familiar with the process, you will need to get an account on PayPal so you can get paid. But that is free so no worries there.

    Wish you the best.

    I agree. there are a whole host of money making opportunities out there. However, many take some time and patience to set up and build to a level that can pay you a part or full time income. For this reason I would suggest places like elance.com and guru.com where you can post writing jobs that you would do for other people. You do not need to be a best selling author.

    Dear SmartSuccess
    ouch I so sympathize..am in very similar situation! I go and do some writing to earn money, don't worry too much about not doing it before..you have done loads of writing for your own stuff..so you can do it. I have a friend who runs a writing service, she can probably find you some work, google thewritersblock that is her website.
    If you have any websites that are not doing very well, add some good articles to them then go see if you can sell them on Flippa..cut your losses with anything that you find difficult to maintain!

    Hope you get through this...

    Offer BMR writing service here at a cheaper rate is what I can think of, doesn't need much research and many people need it (and often order in bulk).

    If you are able to write well, you may find that offering your services as a writer could be just the thing. What I don't recommend is offering to write articles for $5 (or whatever that is in pounds).

    Instead try offering to write articles for about £65 and find just five clients.

    Where can you find clients like this?

    I would try cold calling local businesses and seeing if they need any writing work done.

    Or maybe call a PR or advertising firm in your area.

    Another idea is to find a local business that doesn't have a website. Offer to set one up for £325.

      I agree with the others who recommended trying Fiverr. It's free to put up ads there, and there are plenty of buyers who use the site. You should be able to earn the amount of money you need that way.

    I suggest you start by going to the CAB and explaining your situation. Maybe you can come to an arrangement where you can pay what you can currently afford. Make an offer, even it's only £20, rather than nothing.

    Btw - £325 is nearer $500.


    If you have transport, get yourself to Ledbury where there are more factories than in Ross and you might find some shift work. Call in at all the pubs on the way, in case any of them need staff.


    Good luck.

      Well, here goes. I have read through all of the posts in this thread and am quite surprised that no one has suggested that you get a conventional job. I sympathize with your situation but there should be nothing of greater importance than providing for your kids! I would do the hardest,hottest or dirtiest jobs to support my kids, up to and including shoveling s%#t, if that were a paying job. I'm sure you have the same determination for providing for your kids as I do. Do internet marketing in any spare time you might have. I'm a realist; if you haven't made any money online after 2 years at 7 days a week then the likelihood of making enough money to improve your current situation is very doubtful. I wish you and your family well. Jimmy

      Instead of writing jobs only..you can do one thing, if you know how to set up blogs, then offer website set up service with your unique contents, domain hardly cost 10 bucks which you can get writing few articles, if you are working since 2 years, you must have few premium themes with you, so after setting up blogs you can flip on flippa near 100 bucks each site, offer a future link building service, for each blog to get good price, that way you will have 3-5 clients who will easily give you this much money if you keep your words and can do the same you commited for.

    For emergency cash, you can do the follwing offline methods.

    1. Car wash for businesses. One big building and you'll meet your goal
    2. Blood and sperm donations. This is instant money if you're ok with it
    3. Pawn things arround the house.

    I hope these 3 ideas help. Good luck

    I'm kind of wondering if this thread is real. It probably is, but I really did tell the OP his best options. Starting with taking legal advise about his position.

    Oh well, guess fiverr was what he wanted to hear.

      $325 is actually £520 to put it into perspective for those folk across the pond. Looks like you mistyped.

      This isn't really a situation where you can even contemplate messing around with article writing. You've been threatened with court action.

      The first thing you should do is take a nose around your home. I know I could shift a few hundred pounds worth of junk on Ebay within a few days...

      Get that burden off your back then focus on the IM services which you can establish over time and guard yourself against this happening in the future.

      Best of luck!
