		<description>Cheryl,
There are tons of ways to pick up some extra income online.  Start a website ( very small cash investment ), and once you build a readership you can begin selling advertising space. Adsense is very popular for this - and it's easy.  You can also freelance - you can do graphic design, SEO, consulting, web design, etc.  There's no limit if you are dedicated and creative.</description>

		<description>Using the excuse of "Born into poverty" is one hundred percent bullshit.  What does that really mean?  Your parents were poor, so you just give up without making an effort?  That's just being weak, not hopeless.  After all, a poor kid goes to school just like everyone else.  Whether he chooses to pay attention and actually learn something is up to him, and him alone.  

One doesn't have to have a fancy college degree to earn a good living ( though it sure helps ).  I have never completed a college class in my life, yet I make more than well, just about everyone I know.  Except for my bosses at my current job, of course.  I wasn't *poor* growing up, but certainly very, very far from wealthy.  

You will never be handed anything in life, and making excuses to make yourself feel better is just sad.  I don't sugarcoat things, so if you're offended, that's tough.

As for the pirates remark, quite frankly, if you're abducted by pirates I highly doubt that money will be on your mind again until you're safely back home.  You have bigger problems.</description>

		<description>A lot of financial situations are hopeless. Many people are born into poverty and no one will hire them. If they start making money they lose welfare benefits so most of them choose to remain on welfare instead. Many can't even get into debt because they have no way to open a bank account and take out loans. Also if you are kidnapped by pirates and forced into slave labor that is a hopeless financial situation. You will never see land again.</description>

		<description>Right - it's all about dedication and desire.  If you want to be out of debt badly enough, you will spend less, and you will find a way to make more.  No matter how tough it looks, it's all about how badly you want it.</description>

		<description>Im not in debt but I do believe if there is a will there is a way.  I also think using the web to make money is definitely a good source of extra income, because it doesnt necessarily take alot of money or effort to produce some profit at least, if you are smart.</description>
