As a stay at home mom, looking for an outside job is not easy. If I leave my children in the nursery or in a day care center, maybe my salary is equivalent for the daycare fee. You know what I mean? I am foreigner to this country though looking for a high paying job is hard. If I’ll get a job, surely I’ll get the basic per hour. So, I have decided to start how to make money online. Good thing though my friend told me about paid blogging advertising. For a start it was hard but I didn’t give up. Look at me now, I do the paid blogging on the internet for over a year. I keep all the money I have earned and put it a bank. Hubby and I agreed we won’t touch the money because that money is intended for our business plan. Since I have decided to be a stay at home for years and put up a small business. Hubby and I are planning to apply for small business loans in addition on our saving. That way, we have enough money to start our small business. I wish this plan will come true because right now, there is always something unexpected problems came up. As I said, our savings in the bank will stay there until it reaches for our goal.

A person like me can’t sleep if I have debts. It reminds me when I had appliance debts in one of the appliances center. The item were payable in 24 months with no interests added. That means, I will only pay the item only. The item is not that too expensive maybe about $350. Every end of the month, I will pay a little bit a time. I started paying my bills for about three months but after 3 payments, guess what?! I fully paid it because I can’t sleep having debts in my back. Well, it was really good that I paid them off before I forget to pay.
Now, hubby told me I should get a credit card for future reference especially for building a credit history. As a working mom, I am busy and I don’t like any responsibility to think aside from my children. Anyway, I have no plans to use my credit card but hubby is using it now and he is the one will pay it for me.
