Didn't finish Uni. Have been helping on a friend's busness for last 6 years. Learnt alot but not earning money for myself. At this age, where can I go and what should I do?

To start my own business, I don't have the capital. To leave my friend, I pity her. I am pulling my hair everyday, thinking of what to do. At my age 34, I don't even have CPF. I can't even feed myself. What kind of job is there for me?

I wish some one out there is willing to give me an opportunity.

At 34, its not too late to start a new job. What is your interest? What business is your friend doing? Do you have a driving license? What are your strong points? Maybe you should discuss with your friend to be partner instead of just helping without pay.

You are a true friend. If you feel bad to leave your friend, don't then. But the problem on your livelihood need to be solved.

Maybe consider my suggestion....
I'm doing computer repair and tailor made PCs.

Age is not a problem. Anyway you are still very young.
Why not concentrate on what you are doing now and get customer for me when you are free.

I'll pay you commissions as per job basis. 2 pay day a month.

No quota, no commitment but cannot cheat customer.
You need not informed me before hand even when you want to stop working with me.

It just like your own business, you talk, I go and close to deal, that simple.

In my opinion, CPF is something you only can touch 20 odd years later.
Think more on where to get $ to buy bread for tomorrow first.
Work hard now and build up your saving slowly.

Email me your contact or whatever you want to tell me at
sgp_alan_36@yahoo.com.sg.

Above offer open to all in Singapore.

This is NOT a spam, I just want to help.

Firstly what is your basic qualification. If you have Diploma in any field, I think you can start trying the job at a much lower pay. Alternatively you can give a try on the trade which you are helping your friend and employers may wish to employ you based on your experience and your knowledge in the trade

You are such a generous person, keep it up ! Meantime, just lower yourself and pick up any type of job that pay you reasonably. I'll am very certain you can find a job here in Singapore because a "MBA" holder can drive a cab, thus don't be choosy, you can make it.

you need to have your own life and ambition. you only live once.
go find a job. are you living on your own or with parents?
face the fact that money and job would not drop from sky.
go online to see job postings? go career fairs? read newspaper?
