Need Income To Care For Terminally Ill Family Members

by MDAZ
26 replies
I currently have 3 immediate family members with terminal illnesses who all live across the country. I've come to realize I really need to create an additional income source to allow me some flexibility to travel not only to help pay for my travel but also provide some care for them.

I only have about $500 seed capital to work with and need to save as much as possible for unexpected travel expenses. I would like to generate at least an additional $1000 in income from the initial $500 investment.

I'd love to hear some feedback from experienced warriors who can point me in the right direction. Let me know if using Facebook Ads for CPA would be a good way to start? Who offers the most comprehensive Facebook Ads course for the money out there?

I won't have time to create blogs or write articles for organic traffic. Thank you all for your input and advice!

    MDAZ,
    Sorry to here about your situation. I would be very careful about finding a course on Facebook advertising to promote CPA if you are limited on time and funds. Facebook can make serious income, but learning how to do it right and optimizing campaigns can take much time and money.

    If I were in your position I would join the War Room and find some ideas for free there that are proven money makers.

    One such thing which jumps out is Kensters Rags to Riches. This is a great CPA course with some really great ways to make some money quickly on the cheap.

    There is a ton of great strategies in the War Room to make quick cash with minimal investment.

    The quickest way for you to make some money is to provide a service like writing articles, web design, etc.. You could also broker someone else's services for those same things. Check out this thread for some other good ideas:

    No offence, but that is a pretty daft question to ask on this forum. The only responses you will get are from people trying to sell you their services, which will get you nowhere.

    Regardless of what your circumstances are, and despite all the ridiuculous claims of the "marketing gurus", there is no quick fix to make money.

    You need to read these forums and look at what people have already said they have had success with, you need to do a **** load of research and a whole lot more work before you make a $.

    Sorry to break it to you but there are a lot of people here that live in cloud cukoo land.

        Hi,
        Sorry 2 hear that but plz dont think IM is a immediate source of income.
        For immediate income look for offline jobs in your area.

        Thnx

    I don't know you.

    With 24 posts, I can honestly say I haven't read any of your posts other than this one.

    With that said, I cared for a family member of mine who had terminal cancer. The struggle isn't easy, and it can take an emotional and financial toll on everyone involved. Even with hospice care visiting on occasion, I cared for her until she breathed her very last breathe where we had put together a makeshift bedroom in the downstairs dining room, simply because she could no longer bare the excruciating walk to her real room at the top of the stairs.

    I couldn't imagine having 3 family members endure that simultaneously, whether at home or spread across the country.

    While I'm all about the quote "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime", I'd like to help out with a little something more.

    PM me over your PayPal address. I'm serious.

    Tis' the Season, and best to you and your own!

      Thank you so much for your kind offer.

      X3...I couldn't agree with you more about teaching a man to fish. I've been a member here since 2008 just reading and soaking in as much as I can and quietly observing for the most part.

      I really want to learn from someone who is genuinely interested in teaching others. I know it's difficult to find because many so called "gurus" are re-hashing the same info available but never really offering much support or revealing all the information necessary for someone to experience success.

      I've purchased so many courses, some good some not so great. Problem with most of them is there are usually so much more expenses involved that it ends up nibbling away my IM budget before I even get started.

      I know a lot about many subjects but master at none. I have a decent job which I'm very thankful for and it pays for my monthly expenses without much left over to try various IM method. With everything on my plate right now I just don't have much time to research and write articles.

      Thank you for sharing your experience with me. I'm sorry that you had to watch a loved on die of cancer. It's a horrible and painful way to die. I've already lost a sister a few years ago to breast cancer, she died at a very young age of 35 with 2 young kids. I saw her whittle away to skin and bones, a mere 65lbs and felt absolutely helpless. I have 1 sibling left with Lou Gehrig's, my mom who is the caretaker for my dad with alzheimer was just diagnosed rare form of breast cancer in it's late stage.

      I'm thankful that I've had my parents around for quite a while and I know at their age, we cannot expect them to live forever. My mom's biggest worry is who will care for my dad when she passes away. Guilt is always on my mind as I keep thinking that I should be living there to help, but I have a job here and my husband is also not able to relocate. If we moved there, we'd end up in a much worse situation.

      To top things off, mom speaks mostly Chinese as she didn't work much outside the home. . I've lost most of my Chinese vocabulary, I used to depend on my dad to translate for me, he can no longer do so due to Alzheimer and my sister who knows more Chinese, can't speak due to the progression of her disease.

      They all live in east coast, unfortunately I am the only healthy one left and live 2000 miles away from them. I've been using google voice translator to help translate medical information to my mom, whether she really understands or not, that is still to be determined.

      I always said to my friends that the big man upstairs doesn't give us what we can't handle...well, he must have a lot of confidence in me! I also used to say "what doesn't kill will only make me stronger". Guess I need to quit saying it otherwise the universe will keep throwing more obstacles my way.

      It's good to be able to share personal life experiences with a fellow IM'er. Thank you for reaching out.

        Very true. He knows what you need and will give you
        what you need - when you need it.

        I can't begin to imagine what you are going through,
        but if you are willing to put in some work you can
        make some extra income writing articles.

        Judging by your post it looks like you wouldn't have
        any problems creating articles or blog posts.

        If your interested in going this route, then shoot me a
        PM with your email and I'll send you my guide in my

        First off: my apologies to everyone for the "bump" from the first page. I know it's against the rules, but I hope you all can make an exception....

        Amidst the high tempo and high visibility logistics mission I have here in Camp Arifjan, Kuwait, I did see your post, however, I wasn't able to respond until now.

        I'm not one to typically shed the rugged military exterior that I've been groomed to maintain for the sake of "the mission", especially in such an open public forum....whether I like it or not, in my profession, the expression of emotions like this can oftentimes be seen as weakness. Sure, the culture and paradigm of the Military is gradually evolving into one that some argue is over nurturing and harmful, while others argue that topics such as "resiliency" are absolutely necessary.

        Having a loved one pass away is never an easy thing. I'm no stranger to it (like many, I'm sure, who'll read this thread and may or may not comment themselves), and because of the professions I've chosen in life (the Military and Nursing), death is just an overwhelming reality that I've come to accept.

        It pains me to say that I can also relate to your loss of your sister. My 5-year old sister was killed 1 day before boarding the plane for my first deployment to Afghanistan, as a 19 year old, newbie Soldier fresh out of basic training. I can clearly remember leaving my mobilization base in uniform, attending her funeral, and returning the next day to deploy shortly after 9/11. With me leaving for a year, it was as if my mother had lost 2 children in the matter of a day.

        To this day, I still believe she's the strongest person I know.

        Faced with the opportunity to stay home, I decided to leave with my friends and unit. It was a hard decision to make. It was a perosnal choice. I'd like to think that other would make a similar choice, but I'd totally understand and support them either way.

        Remember, no matter what you go through in life, you are never ever alone...ever. Someone, somewhere, has gone through what you are/have gone through. It sucks when it happens to you, but I've come to accept that there really is a great universality governing experiences like death, grief, and mourning.

        With that, again, I wish you the best.

        And....My offer still stands....

          Wow...I had tears streaming down when I read this.

          I want to personally thank you for putting your personal life aside to serve our country especially helping other soldiers over there in time of need.

          I thank you personally for your offer as well as Andrew's offer, I truly appreciate it! I hope you won't take offense if I graciously decline the offer. I don't want others to think I'm here for handouts nor do I want to see others on this forum begging for handouts when we are all perfectly capable of working for the end results. I'd much rather learn to fish for life rather be given a fish for a day. I know I can be successful with the right mentor/support.

          You're so right, while my own friends may not truly know the emotional roller coaster I'm experiencing and can only empathize...I know there will always be others out there who have gone through what I'm going through now. This is why I'm sharing some very personal experiences on such a public forum. I believe that the more you share with others the more others are willing to open up to you both personally as well as professionally.

          I'm thankful for those who have offered their advice and time/services. I never thought I could find such caring individuals on a forum like this. I feel very blessed!

    The fastest way to make money online is by being a service provider (like a ghostwriter, for instance). It's because you not only get paid via Paypal but, many times, you can get paid upfront. I'm sorry to hear about your situation.

    Good luck,

      vivi62,

      Thank you for the amazing list of ideas! Most of the sites you've listed I am not even aware of! I am going to copy and paste it into a word doc so I can go back to it often and get my creative juices flowing!

      I wish I was good with graphics. That's always been something I wanted to learn but didn't have time. I guess I love the idea of designing, but designing doesn't necessarily love me.

      Growing up in a traditional Asian family, Academics always came first...creativity and extra curricular activity was just not an option. So...my two siblings became engineers and I'm the business major and "serial entrepreneur" who never quits trying. Guess you can call me the "black sheep".

      Thank you...I do have a f/t job here. Fortunately the owner is very understanding of my situation. However, since I'm in sales, the more time I miss from work, the less income I make which is why I wanted to find additional sources of income.

    MDAZ,
    I am sorry to hear of your troubles and wish you and your family the best. As far as how to intelligently invest your money towards helping them...
    I would use that money to go visit with these family members and spend my time researching true ways to help their illnesses. There are 1000 yr old natural remedies which could help and even cure most "fatal" illnesses. Including Cancer! Do your research and focus more on being there for them and helping them battle these illnesses. Remember today's doctors are merely practicing, it won't hurt to do some research.
    If you need any help with this I can help point you in the right direction. Again I am sorry for your troubles and wish you all the best.

    I'm sorry to hear that you're in this situation (x3!). I myself found out my mom had stage 4 lung cancer a few months ago and desperately want to get her moved here (she lives near the coast and we're smack dab in the middle of the country). If you PM me I'll send you my latest WSO for free, which is about a place and ways I've been making some decent extra money lately.

      Oh, I don't consider myself a victim at all, by any means, if that's what I had subtly conveyed in my post. I wouldn't give up some of my experiences for the world, both at home, overseas in Afghanistan, or currently here in Kuwait. I do believe that being so close to death has refined my approach to leadership in such a way that I believe is optimal when handling, and relating to, others (especially my Soldiers) who are/have gone through the same thing. An empathetic approach has come in really quite handy, as a Soldier, and, in my 'other' profession of Nursing when I get home.

        Its very sad to hear about your situation and about your family-members terminal illnesses, my condolences

        There have been mentioned a lot of great ideas. One thing you could try to do with facebook, which costs no money and might be beneficial to you! I've seen it being done before! Generally many people are very helpful to people in need! So you could try to setup a campaign for your family-members, by making a fanpage about them and your problem! Urging people to help you and your family-members by donating something as little as 1-5$. Make sure invite as many to as you can, and have friends and family support and share it!

        I hope this might help you as well!

    I am truly sorry to hear about your family members, I lost two grandparents last year and it's not easy by any means.


    The problem with CPA in this case is if you need the money quick your probably not going to see a check for at least a month. I know you said you don't have much time but I would really try to set aside an hour each day and offer services such as writing in exchange for immediate payments straight into your paypal account.
