Im fucked. Starvation

Try yard work(not sure where you live).. go house to house offer stuff for cheap.. maybe sell stuff you got?

Get on welfare and go to your local shelter,

or

stop bitching and keep on pushing !

The choice is yours, red or blue pill.

This is the attitude you should have.

If you have no cash to buy food there is always goverment programs to help (welfare, unemployment, etc) and food donations, soup kitchens. I suggest you join one even if you plan to do IM since it may take you some time to make stable income if you have no resources, and you probably is going to need to pay rent for somewhere to stay

you know what, i was going to donate to BHW, the 97 bucks, but i second this, i was in a hard place once, posted a thread here, and the guy sent me 100 bucks. for food. im glad he did, because i literally had no food at all and had not eaten in 2 days. but anyhow, will send you $50, but , you have to do both pk_69 and i a favor(sorry for speaking on your behalf w/o permission), when you have it good, for whatever reason, the second you find someone that needs help, then help them. also, get yourself a job , stop playing around on BHW and get your arse out there and get a job. im sure you can get one. so, go for it, once you have a job, come back to BHW and give us an update

SORRY did not read a single reply.
Here is my opinion regardless.
You fail. No offence. But you obviously do.
Dont ask for others to help. Especially not here.
Hell its not a support forum. Its what it is.
I say destroy scab threads like this.
Disgraceful honestly.
Hell i could loose my house and my home for my children but i would not scab online to help my problem.

I'll try and make more sites as I've got a shitload of domains (can't even sell them - I'm pretty sure a few of them could be worth a couple of hundred dollars for branding but Sedo wants evaluation fees. Tsk. I've earned 4p parking with them so far.) but I have to hurry as my hosting runs out in a couple of months.

Stop fucking around feeling sorry for yourself and sell the domains. You don't need to put them on SEDO or pay for a valuation (you can list on SEDO without one anyway). You sound as if you gave up after about 1 day of looking. Nothing is handed to you on a plate in this biz, just get out there and hustle.

Put some of them up on DNforum (if you have an account), namepros and all the other domain marketplaces. Most you won't have to pay anything upfront. Even put them on DP. If you have "shitload" then even selling at 20 bucks apiece is going to add up quite nicely.

If you have any geo domains, chuck a site up and call all of the businesses in that niche/area. Sell them the site for $500. It's so easy it's not even funny.

If you get into the losing mentality it's just going to be an uphill struggle.

Thats a big part of your problem right there. There's a whole world out there. Take advantage of it!

Just worded in a way you think is wrong, that doesn't change the guys position and it certainly doesn't make this a scab thread.

This is a reality thread pretty close to where most people are online.

This thread has a real message to those that hang out around forums ect.

First of all Im not a scabber I refused the 100 Paypal offer above and second I been for six jobs I past two weeks with 12 years experience and not one of those employers even send a letter or phone call saying you have not got the job.

So work your miracles on that.
Secondly I have had some good domains on Sedo for TWO YEARS and not one have sold also on Godaddy
THirdly when you dont have a car and only a few pounds and bus you cant go far

My reply was to Asgard.

I'm not saying you are a scabber, either. Six jobs? No offence, but there's something like 65 applications PER JOB in the UK at the moment - so unless you've done at least that many then I don't really have any sympathy. It's a numbers game just like anything else.

Secondly: put them on DP then. And everywhere else. Namepros is good too. If you really are that short of cash try EVERYTHING.

Thirdly: you can email and/or call them. You should be able to close some over the phone, especially for a few hundred quid.

I feel for you. I've been in this situation too and with an extra mouth to feed, it was no joke. Finding some breathing space is what helped me, and an idea to help make some money.

WRT your housing benefits problem. I would try to find a local counsellor who deals with these matters, and get them onside. You'll find a list at your local library. This might not stop your council from getting back the over payment, but at least you can put something in their spokes to slow them down a tad.

You have some domains to sell. Great! Put some content on them, and flip them. I've not done this myself, but you'll probably some guides in one of the forums. You should realise much more money than just selling a domain on its own.

If you have a local domain name, send me a PM. I'm putting the finishing touches to some software to help build vertical niche directories. Get those pages ranked, and you'll be able to rent pages out. A vertical niche directory is a directory dedicated to one niche. Let's say "Stoke on Trent Florists". Of course you'd cover the whole of the potteries area. Please note reader: This offer is for the OP only! Do not PM me asking for copies.

All I can say is that sometimes thing go bad in life, and believe me I was once at the top and after a few of the worst things happened to me I fell to the bottom. But I fought and I'm still fighting. I moved where I am now 2 years 2 months ago to one of the countries where people think that are smarter and know more than you, it's annoying, but I hold myself, I think 3 times before taking any action, and I stick to what the old I Ching says: "Perseverance brings good fortune". IM is tough, there is too much material specially here to get out of focus. Do things honestly and the way road to success will come sooner than later.

Aye I know, but I'm not a noob at this you know. I've been doing (trying) for over 2 years. If I was a quitter I'd have done so before now. So yeah, I'm hanging in there but we aren't all 'hustlers' and as bizarre as it seems to some of you, those skills don't come naturally. I spent 9 hours the other day sending 100's of individual emails (so I didn't risk getting done for spam) for an offer to specific businesses to help them get leads for their business. It was a good offer and the sales letter was already done for me (a business friend was helping me out by letting me promote his offer). I got quite a few clicks but as soon as they saw it was actually a sales page (even though they should have been prepared) they clicked off. Got 2 replies telling me to basically fuckoff. Shouldn't let it bother me but it does.

Just sold my TV so that's given me a couple of more weeks grace. I'm trying to approach a DM firm with a JV for a business opp (as one of Kevin Rileys original workshop attendees I got a reseller license to his product which is currently selling for $395 - my costs would be $79.50 delivered to the customer). As I suck at writing sales letters, and DM costs are quite high, JV seemed the way to go. If I fail at that then I'll just have to wait until I can afford to rent a list myself and somehow write the sales letter and fund the campaign. One day. But no, I won't give up even if I have to temporaily go on Income support - no jobs round here for 50 year old crones (I've been looking after my Father for 6 years 24/7 so was out of the job market a while anyway.)

It just wears you down after a while ya know. Regarding the domains for DN, I've previously mooted them on such sites like NamePros but domain buyers tend to go for names with keywords in them, my domains are more branding types. I'm greatly reluctant to sell them for $20 unless I really had to. Though ironically I recently let a few go because I couldn't afford to renew them. I'm gonna try stick some sites on some of them - SmallSpreads.com for a spreadbetting/forex/ site with adsense and maybe look for some high end affiliate products. Though got a forex site already which earns a tiny sum with adsense but the actual forex affiliate program earns nothing.

If you have any geo domains, chuck a site up and call all of the businesses in that niche/area. Sell them the site for $500. It's so easy it's not even funny.

I'm trying to get the nerve to approach a funeral/memorial chain for the LastFarewell.co.uk but will probably try put a site there first. And yes, it will require nerve to approach them. What seems easy to you may be a monumental mountain to others.

Thanks for the advice, I really appreciate it.
