I do not really have any big problem right now. It seems like I never have really any big problems in my life. I know we do not have enough money for every month, my husband is working hard on this. Ever since I quit my full time job, he handles and worries about the financial part and asked me to focus on the rest, as my main job now is to take care of the children. With living simple and frugal, we are still able to survive.

I am glad I have got a few freelance projects to work on lately, and hope this will help to bring us some good income. That’s why I am rushing for the projects now, and also working on some online sites. I want to at least help out as much as I can. We are not in a critical situation, but having the third baby will need a little bit more money. Glad that I am breastfeeding my baby and also using cloth diapers (already bought when my second child was born), so I don’t need to spend too much on the baby’s stuffs now, just the hospital and doctor cost will be really expensive. 😛

@lolaze Hope you will be able to find a better way for your situation now. It’s good that your mom is supportive and you have two awesome kids to babysit. Kids aren’t always that awesome. 😀

Sorry, I do not really know what SS is, but hope they will accept your case very soon. Hope everything will be fine to you soon too.

@nakitakona13 Same here. I am also trying hard to reach my first cash out now, that’s why I am making my best to be active here. I would like to see and also show that this site pays. Though it requires lots of time and effort, I am happy to have met many friends online, learned something new from others, and also enjoyed myself participating in the forums as well.

Hope you will continue to enjoy yourself while trying your make your first cash out. 🙂

@4cryingoutloud Good that you know goal setting will not make you feel good. 🙂

@lolaze Hope your complaint letter will be considered by the local hospital seriously, and you’ll be well taken care off. Enjoy writing here and on another site too. 🙂

@rapidblue You are doing great!

@morgoodie Congratulations on reaching $3, and hope you’ll be able to cash out from other sites too.
Actually I always have a lot more on my to-do list, but now since I know I am pregnant and need to sleep, I try not to put so much on my list. 😛
I am really grateful for having the nap nowadays, as I really need it, thanks to my two children as they can play well together, so I can sleep more.

@grecy095 Good that you have achieved your goal again at Humanatic. Yes, I think the new week is going to start soon, and you won’t be having much time online. Hope you will enjoy your new job! 🙂
I guess as long as you find which way makes you more comfortable, that’s good for you.

@swalia Hope you will meet your goals! Those are a lot to achieve too. 🙂

I agree with @ruby3881 . I actually always remember to vote up whenever I found that reply is useful and positive too. I guess it’s a habit of mine after joining Facebook. I do not simply click on Like button, but I usually Like any status or comment whenever I think it’s good, positive, useful or meaningful, just to show my appreciation.

But I also try not to “spam” the voting system here, though I’d definitely like to vote everyone up. 😛

May 15, 2016 at 8:15 pm

@bestwriter I experienced the same as Kyla explained. Once you saved it as draft, it is actually displayed in your Blog Dashboard with the status Offline, but you just can’t do anything with it.

Glad that I have saved a copy of the post in my computer, so I created another post and submitted that. You can create another new post for that, or as Kyla suggested, you can just PM support to help you to work on that draft.

May 15, 2016 at 6:54 pm

@peachpurple I hope support will answer your questions very soon. I think most of us do not really know how the referrals work.

Thank you for sharing your list. I have not try hubpages, writedge and wikinut. Do you recommend these three sites despite you have been paid? All of them are writing sites, am I right?

I have been paid a few times from clixsense, and I think it’s a very promising site. If you can do the surveys, it’ll help you to earn faster. Sometimes $10 in a month, but I don’t get qualified for the surveys all the time.

May 15, 2016 at 6:40 pm

@thinker I agree with you on that, though I have not really try to vote down anyone, I guess it’s like that too.

Hope we will get to know more about the points, it’s interesting to know. 😀

May 15, 2016 at 6:38 pm

We have the similar discussions on other threads about the points you mentioned. It’s like reputation points. When our comment gets voted up, as it’s marked as useful to other members, we will get one point increased. When we get more points, more functionalities will be unlocked to us. I think I am able to edit my comment once I reached certain points.

I have no idea if this affects our earnings, but I don’t see any relationship between them.

I hope we will get to know what benefits we will have for each rank and a certain amount of points too.

This is the reply from support in another thread:

“Ranking and voting system is one of the factor that will help you in getting promoted to the next level as the current level being “Newbie”. Once you are promoted, you have more options to earn and additional capabilities.”

You can check out the similar threads here:

Are you voting up in the forum?

What ranking do we have in LiteracyBase?

May 15, 2016 at 6:22 pm

@bestwriter I guess none of us can blame the time, they treat us equally and fairly enough. We just have to learn how to manage it and prioritize our tasks. Sometimes, we might want to do TOO MUCH. My husband has always been saying I am too greedy, because I want to do too many things at once, and sometimes when I am overwhelmed, it makes things worse too.

So now I learned to prioritize my tasks, and also get help from my husband and children whenever possible. This helps a lot! 😀

@dawnwriter I am staying in tropical country, where everyday seems to be quite hot, perhaps not as hot as summer. We are used to drink tea whenever we want to drink. I enjoy drinking tea together with my family and also drinking tea alone. I do not know why, I find drinking tea and coffee can help me to feel relax and calm me down too.

I haven’t try out those new flavors you mentioned, except for Jasmine tea. I like it as well. It’s good that you keep trying different flavor every day. 🙂

May 15, 2016 at 5:59 pm

@dawnwriter I totally agree with you! It seems like I have been working on the same thing over and over again, the daily house chore, preparing for the meals, cleaning up here and there. I also admit that I have recently spent too much time online and on my freelance work as well, and that also make me neglect others and things got piled up too.

I agree that we have to learn how to better manage our time, and prioritize our tasks as well. There was once I could manage things quite well, and I felt really happy with it. That was when I didn’t have my freelance project to work on. When I have more free time for my home, I can do it better. But, when I am busy at work, I just don’t can’t juggle all the balls I have, then something slipped.

How old are your children? I am making my 7yo son to clean up as much as he can. As I am pregnant now and also rushing for my work, he understands and sometimes he really helps a lot. Sometimes, but not all the time. But I am already thankful for him. 😀

@morgoodie I got frustrated with them sometimes too. But, I just think that if I continue to clean up for them, they will never learn, and they will always depend on me to do it for them. Since my eldest son is 7yo, I think he should be big enough to tidy up the stuffs he’s played and also help out a bit at home. I really don’t think I can handle everything when I have a baby later.

I realized that if I have a home for everything, the kids will know how to bring the stuffs back to their home. So firstly, I have to organize all the stuffs and give them a home.

I guess many moms, especially with young children are facing this challenge at home. 😀

May 15, 2016 at 5:15 pm

@bestwriter Yes, that happens in my family or culture as well. As Chinese, many of us like to drink tea at home, with the tea pot and the small tea cups. Even if we dine out, we usually drink tea as well.
I have no idea about the tea you mentioned, glad that you are happy with Taj now.

@sunil I am sure your wife will always make tea or coffee for you. If you are making it yourself, do you make coffee with coffee maker?

May 15, 2016 at 5:06 pm

@thinker I also think it’s good to have our own website, but that requires more time to study and set up, hence I haven’t get to work on it until now. 😛

I have totally no idea how bitcoin works, perhaps I will need to spend some time to study about it as well. Hope you will set up your own website soon! 🙂

By the way, I am actually working on my freelance business, hence I will concentrate on that more than the online working sites.

@swalia Those are the sites I am currently working on, but I am not active on all the sites every day. Especially when I am now busy with LiteracyBase, so I can’t spend much time elsewhere for writing. But I still work on those PTC sites daily, as I can click on the ads while writing here. Currently, there’s no work for me in postloop, as the forums I joined are all disabled.

I am also working hard on my freelance project (software development), hence I can’t spend too much time here as well.

I think working on personal websites will require more time. Good that you can still manage to write regularly. 🙂

May 15, 2016 at 4:53 pm

@morgoodie I am not sure if these online sites we are joining can help us to earn enough for monthly expense. I used to think about setting up an online business, like online store that might be helpful. I also thought of setting up a blog or website that can help generating money as well. You might want to try this out, but I am sure these require much time to study and set up as well. I thought of a few alternatives when I planned to quit my full time job. I ended up didn’t do all these, as I was busy taking care of my young children, and I was lucky to get some freelance projects to work on as well.

For Ayuwage, does the site pay monthly or on demand?

I wanted to check out the ebook, but I couldn’t access it now. I have more than $6 now, I am thinking to wait until it reaches $10, since I read that grecy has not receive her payment yet, so I guess there’s no point for me to make the redemption now too. I’ll just wait for awhile more.
