Why is it that if we work so hard we are so poor?

Question

i never seem to have any fun anymore.

Answer 1

That's life!

Answer 2

Everyone's situation is different, mine is that I work hard and when I come home the TV gets turned on and I sucked into some stupid show and then another, we take a bike ride or go to the health club, we make dinner and before you know it, it’s bed time.

You probably have a car, a house, phone, cell phone, internet access, lights, nice clothes, children, education loans. You probably have a lot more than 90% of the world population.
Make the time to have a little fun, you probably have it somewhere and it doesn't have to cost a lot of money to do it. Count your blessings my guess is you have quite a few.

Answer 3

I've read a while ago an interview of Edward Luttwak, a consultant of former president Reagan. He stated there that capitalism gives every one a chance to make something of him/herself. Capitalism gives us the chance to reach for the stars or to live a simple and humble life. It doesn't force us to be rich. We can make the choice to live simple. That's the beauty of capitalism.
Butt Luttwak only said that with the arrogance of a supporter of capitalism and the globalized economy, who knows that NO ONE would choose to live a simple life because of a certain "fail-safe device" we all know too well: The American dream.

I personally love to live in a capitalistic society. It really gives me a choice to live the way I want to. No other economic system can provide that choice for me and that is, I hope I'm not exaggerating, a true blessing.

BUT whatever choice you make you must think of the consequences.

So when you say "poor" do you mean really poor or just frugal? And do you see yourself as poor only because you can't buy "stuff"?

If you want to be rich pursuit it, take risks. Throw yourself into the game. But bear in mind that by taking risks you may fall hard on your *** and die of an heart attack. The American dream has no place for "losers"!

If you don't want to take any risks, enjoy your life as it is. I'm sure you will find out that there are many beautiful things besides a big car, a big house etc. Learn to love your life. Enjoy your time with your family and friends!

Answer 5

I figured this out recently. The harder you work the more money you earn and the more things you find to spend that money on. Unless you have a strict budget plan you will continue to spend what you earn.

I use a strict budget on a spreadsheet for everything like bills, food, mortgage etc. I know exactly what goes in and what comes out. I have a buffer of what is left over and decides whether i can buy something or not in any given month.

To supplement that income or give me some "bonus money" as i call it i use these sites below:

Try these FREE sites. Complete offers, answer surverys and they will either send you a cheque or pay you through paypal.

Treasure Trooper: http://www.treasuretrooper.com/143096
Minimum Payout: $20.00
Referral Bonuses:Two Tiers - 20%, 5%
Payment:Every month - by check.
Get Paid To:Complete offers, play games, and shop.

THIS IS THE ONE I SUGGEST IF YOU'RE JUST STARTING OUT.

Take surveys, sample products, signup for free trials, join clubs, and get paid for it all! There are over $2,000 worth of offers alone.

Shop at hundreds of brand name stores and get cash back on your purchases through Treasure Trooper. If it's shopping you might already be doing, why not get paid for it?

As of July, 06 Treasure Trooper currently pays its members over $100,000 a month. The top paid members currently make $800+ per month. The extra perks like treasure hunts and the 'Trading Hut' are sure to keep this company popular.

Treasure Trooper probably has the most offers of any of the sites. Like Cash Crate they send you e-mails to let you know if an offer has been approved. When I had a question I logged into their chat room and it was immediately answered. The fact that it revolves around a game doesn't appeal to me, but many people really enjoy it and it does provide benefits to those who participate.

Minimum Payout: $20.00
Referral Bonuses: Two Tiers - 20%, 10%
Payment: Every month - by Check, Visa Gift Card.
Get Paid To: Complete offers and join free clubs and websites.

"Companies need consumers to try and review products, services, and websites and are willing to pay you to do it...What we do is take the money companies give us for your participation and give back up to 75% of it!"

Cash Crate gives nice bonuses and you can get paid very well over the long term with their generous referral program - 20% for direct referrals, 10% for second tier.

They don't have quite as many offers as Treasure Trooper or Instant Profitz but their site is very navigable and they are very organized with their information. Cash Crate clearly states what you can earn from each offer. They take care of your pending offers for you and send you confirmation e-mails when offers go through, as well as when they didn't so you can re-try.

Instant Profitz: http://www.instantprofitz.com/?ref=sanpedro

Minimum Payout: $20.00
Referral Bonuses: Two Tiers - 10-20%, 3-5%
Payment:Every month - Paypal!, Check, Other.
Get Paid To: Complete offers, play games, shop.

Instant Profitz really does put more instant money in your pockets. A great $3.00 sign-up bonus is an easy plus. Along with their standard referral system, you also receive a $0.25 bonus for each new referral you get.

Instant Profitz offers higher than normal payouts with the option of Paypal, but the referral program is different compared to others. Referral % earnings are only credited when and IF your referral reaches a $20 minimum and cashes out. Some of your future referrals will do offers but never make it to the $20 cash out minimum, costing you lost referral earnings. Other programs like Cash Crate and Treasure Trooper will credit your percentage instantly and they also offer higher referral % earnings.

Once you're earning a few bucks email me and we can discuss other ways with minimum investment.

As always any questions please ask.

Answer 6

Two things, don't work hard, work smart. And next time your going out to spend that hard earned cash, when you see that "must have" item, ask yourself, do I NEED it? nine times out of ten you probably don't. You'll be surprised how it takes some of the pressure off of your financial situation. Being happy with what you've got is better than being unhappy wanting things that you can't have.

Answer 7

Work hard, be honest, be poor. Only the crooks are rich. Don't envy them, it's bad for your soul. It may be acceptable to be a crook in a capitalist society, but it doesn't make it right.
