You have to be who you are and stick to your morals, but you also need to put food on the table, and have the electricity.. I have been working hard online trying to bring in a little more income as well. I'm using Ehow.com, I used to use HubPages.com great sites. And doing my blogging of course. You could check those out is what I'm saying. <br /><br />And you hun, hang in there.. it'll get better soon.

My post was more than "just" about fees and money. <br /><br />I have absolutely zero problem with the IDEA of charging LOTS for what I do, and think it would be worth every penny. I just don't think it necessary.<br /><br />In addition, when people want help, sometimes they are unable to afford it, and I want to be accessible to them.<br /><br />With things as they currently are, it would seem to me that more money is not likely to the answer...look at where the quest for more money has gotten "us" as a society. (I wonder if perhaps there is a different question to ask).<br /><br />I have yet to figure out what the answer is, but I am not sure it's the one that has been "given." Just because I would CHOOSE to do something for no cost, or a lower fee doesn't mean that I don't value what I do - or myself. There can be those who will take advantage, given the opportunity, however, I think it all depends on where you come from. <br /><br />I am also happy to trade services, or work out other options whenever needed and it works to do so, and within those arrangements value is exchanged.<br /><br />I know there's more to this picture, I just don't know yet what it is. The one thing I am certain about is that I do not believe there is one "the" answer for everyone, everywhere, although the one I come up with for myself may just fit to some degree for others in a similar place.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by.Elizabeth Alraunehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06424278576626529817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5168337788506782369.post-10593759736331039022009-11-03T04:03:57.876-08:002009-11-03T04:03:57.876-08:00I agree 100% with what Sarah said, and could not p...I agree 100% with what Sarah said, and could not put it any more plainly.jpnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5168337788506782369.post-21763934696924329482009-11-02T22:17:25.335-08:002009-11-02T22:17:25.335-08:00It's actually funny that you asked for my opin...It's actually funny that you asked for my opinion or ideas, views on this matter... Because just yesterday I had a discussion with my best friend about how much to charge for my services clercial services that is. <br /><br />Here's the deal i am a quick typist i type about 72 words per min. and I have a friend who needed me to run his twitter account because he is starting out and he has a new business he is going to be running and he needed some leads and followers etc. so i took on the challenge of finding him a 1000 followers and i have up until the end of november to help him gain that. OH ME OH MY i thought it was going to be easy and fast and quick but people are afraid to just click and follow even if they are referrals.. which is understandable. <br /><br />But then i started to help him and it became more of a chore than something fun to do but because i have time to do this and im home with grandma its ok, as far as i see. So my best friend and i had a discussion about how come your not charging, and i said because he's a friend of the family.. and my best friend advised me of a saying' "DONT LET THE COW OUT OF THE BARN" he said he has done it many times.. he owns a business he's a mechanic and he says that everything is a negotiation, and he helped me to see that some people like to take advantage of others. even if not done intentionally. <br /><br />He went on to say this is how you negotiate and offered me some valid information and vital things to say that would help me. <br /><br />Because my friend wanted to pay me from the begining but by me saying oh yeah ill do it for free, there i let the "cow out of the barn" <br /><br />i guess you have to go on the idea of how much you value yourself and what you have to offer.. if you dont take any value in what you are conveying then you are going to charge less and if you believe in yourself well then you will charge a fair amount, but at the same time.. if you value yourself then that value will reflect on what you are selling or trying to convey. <br /><br />basically dont let the cow out of the barn my opinion is to figure out your own value and go on that.Sarah Saldanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05214232803807689625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5168337788506782369.post-16206056040682121592009-11-02T18:41:27.755-08:002009-11-02T18:41:27.755-08:00you know I get the same thing with my art, I am al...you know I get the same thing with my art, I am always being told to put my prices higher, but I want everyone to have a chance to own a piece before the price do get too high, they go up 10% every 6 monthsthe famous nemohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01509428539878510921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5168337788506782369.post-71596085823548418872009-11-02T18:41:13.956-08:002009-11-02T18:41:13.956-08:00Value.
