hmmmmI am quite wealthy now
but when I wasn't and things were really bad the line was blurry
I can live poor it didn't matter but my daughter is a different story
okay...if I were victim of Katrina or Tsunami poor (and I mean the people who have NO place to live, out on the streets, no private or government help, no skills, etc) then I might prostitute myself (with my hygiene standards this would be very hard) but only after I had gone to some churches and asked for a bit of help and they couldn't help me
I would never prostitute my daughter... i have seen people do this all over the world and it is bad
I once left my abusive first husband....I left everything: credit, home, etc. I had to or he would have eventually killed me.
I left with clothes on my back, a shirt and pants extra, my purse, $5.00 I had that an elderly neighbor gave me and some heirlooms
I couldn't ask my parents for anything because they had warned me about marrying him
I stayed in a Greyhound bus station for a bit and walked around...and after about 3 days I ate a McDonald's cheeseburger
I then spent the night at a homeless shelter where I knew I could get some day work
I worked like this and lived like this until I got my check and then I went and bought a few work clothes and stayed at a really ratty motel
My ex had all the credit cards and even ruined my credit, out of spite, but I was able to get a down payment kind
slowly I built myself back up and met my current husband who helped me while I helped him
I ate some not eaten food out of the trash and got some stuff that people had thrown away (a couch) but I did not prostitute myself (if worse came to worst then I could have gone back home)
THANK GOD i didn't have a kid yet
and as bad as things were, it still does not compare to what I have seen elsewhere here in America or outside the country

I would do absolutely nothing for the money itself. In this society I must earn funds with which to house and feed myself, but the money is nothing more than a tool with which I survive. Of itself, it is worthless to me.

It depends whether or not I'd want to do it for free. Anything I would not choose to do probably isn't worth money anyway.

Anything that I wouldn't want floating around on the internet I wouldn't do.

Anything that would hurt someon I would not do. Other than that I'd have to think about it before deciding to do it.

I wouldn't do anything for money that I would otherwise do. Money doesn't persuade me to do anything.

If it doesn't harm anyone ELSE, I believe --- do what you will. Even if you're harming yourself, society has no right to intervene.

If it is morally wrong, I won't do it. I have to be able to live with myself.
