Get an education/skill/career. It's old-school, sure, but it's still the best approach for those without major inheritance coming their way or exceptional capping abilities.
How are people surviving these days

#37Dad owned a construction company and when he passed away it became mine and my brothers. We sold it for some nice coin. Married to my beautiful wife with one kid. And I live happily ever after. I know its tough for some people to make ends meet and I don't understand why there are people betting away there last couple of dollars on here. Its sad, it really is.
I bet on sports because its a hobby for me. Nothing more, nothing less.Comment -

#40On unemployment right now and moving in with my sister at the end of this month to save on expenses.
Times are tough now and I hope that work will pick up for me in the next few months......I'll be taking a couple of certification courses through my union to help make me more accessible to pick up work.
Being on unemployment sucks but is better than nothing.Comment -

#44Unemployment money doesn't come from the government. Unemployment benefits in the United States are paid out of trust funds established by each state. These funds are funded by employer premiums. An employer's premium is determined by its past layoff/claims history and - the more people the employer has claiming unemployment over time, the higher the premiums paid. The employer pays the premium for each worker on its payroll.
So if you get laid off why not collect that money from your old employer.Last edited by Keelo; 01-18-11, 06:15 PM.Comment -

#45I work for the "welfare Department" for my state, and have to see people who I went to school with who are now homeless. It's really odd, because usually you can just say "well if your jobless, its just because you dont want a job." That doesnt seem to be the case today. I know college educated guys who would love to get a job doing ANYTHING. Manual labor and fast food places wont hire them for fear that they will leave quickly due to finding another job...and there are no other jobs.Comment -

#55some people get fired for bull shit reasons right now. im not saying that a bunch of people out ther dont deserve to be fired from time to time but right now is insane. and i dont know if youve been on the job market lately but its a joke. there isnt shit as far as a real job is concerned and the ones being offered are even more horse shit. plus people pay into unemployment when they work for a company so they deserve it.Comment -

It's a sad fact that most people have jobs they don't even like, but they must work to stay in the game.
I also have enough money to live a life without working, but I don't use my right, instead I do what I like. It would also be unethical to live up everything my ancestors had collected.
I have to make more then my father and my son has to make more then me, that's the rule.Comment -

#57Obviously its only the internet but the sad part for you is that its the truth. And there really are people (such as myself) that do live the life that I do. I know its unfortunate you have to read this and you have to make a stupid comment. No where does it say in big bold letters that Trident has to read it. Sorry dude, but its the truth.
I couldn't live my life without working I don't know how you do it. Humans are made to create things even if I had all of the money in the world I wouldn't settle down and live happily ever after, that just wouldn't be me. People are made to create, design, manager regardless if they get money for it or not, couse they love to show their products to other people and get their reputation.
