[Sugar100]

Work has been slow since December and I haven’t been able save any money. I kept getting bad luck December and wanted save $1k. But 2022 was a bad month for me financially so I hope it’s just a curse and 2023 I begin saving a lot. Work was cancelled last week & now this wk after chritmas work is cancelled tomrow & I don't know if I’ll work Thursday to Saturday. I hope work isn’t cancelled those days. I’m broke $0 need work. I’m home bored using my chritmas gifts I got but stressed out. I’m bored. Work was quiet yesterday. I know January is slow. I feel so bored , anyone wanna chat?

My problem now is work has been cancelled past 2 weeks almost the whole month. This is the last month and I wanted work daily have $800 saved but they cancelled work tomrow and I’m scared they will cancel Thursday Friday and Saturday. I need money. I don't know what to do. Ik there are apps where they post random shfits and you can go work at different jobs for one day or 2 for extra money. I might try that but having issue downloading the apps.

Everyone says save 10% but look at this, staring at age 20 if you make $40,000 a year which is around the US median, and save 10% at 7% in 30 years when you're 50 you'll have $400,000 on which you'll have to pay taxes sometime, bringing it down to around $250,000. Living off the interest of that for the next 30 years until you're 80 is only $15,000 a year, after half a lifetime of struggling to save.

Much better to put it into real estate (not at the top of the market) and just keep buying properties and renting them out or rolling them over, and putting your time into a business that can bring you millions.

When you work a job your salary gets taxed at the highest rates. When you own real estate or a business or invest, taxes are much, much lower, or non-existent in many cases.

Learn how money works.

This book teaches you about real estate.

This second book about having a business is a very poorly written, he repeats himself and brags a lot, but the information is good so it's worth slogging through to learn that.

Just let your boyfriend help you out that's what you do in relationships he can lean on you and when your down you can lean on him and if work doesn't start picking up in the next week it's time to start looking for another job

I have applied to some agency jobs already and hope I can start one next wk in case work is cancelled this wk. But I won’t quit my current job. I don’t like changing jobs every month I want keep this job as stable job for years. . It’s just slow rn. But There’s always work daily tho. I’m surprised it’s slow 3 wks now

[Sugar100]

It’ll hard tho work the agency job for 2 wks at least cuz in order keep the curentjob I have I need go at least 2x a wk. So I might need lie at the agency job one Friday or soemthing and say I’m sick lol to go To my real job that day

Consider putting 10% of your paycheck into a savings account that you don't touch.

The issue is I need there be work daily so I can save one whole check but I’m scared I don't know if there will be work daily this wk or January all month. Cuz u know after Christmas it’s slow. But I need work I’m not on vacation. I don't know what to do

Perhaps its time to look for a new job?

[Sugar100]

I don’t want quit current job as the job is always stable. It’s just slow after Christmas which is normal. I jsut can’t predict wen work will stop cancelling. I’ll need try work a temp agency job and still work current job at same time
