How To Have Money?

Throughout the years I was told from a family member that buying U.S. Saving Bonds are great to have for long term and I did buy a few and financial hardship came along and I cashed them before my bonds matured in 5, 10, 15 or 20 years, lesson learned. This is a great way to have cash in the long run.

People don't trust the stock market but investing in stocks and mutual funds is helping people predict future growth. Researching and personal experience will give people a better judgment on their finances.
Financial professionals and others that are trustworthy to build a successful future.

Why Are People Poor?

Is being poor a state of mind? Well, it depends on who you're asking and why would anyone care?
There is a saying, "Life Is What You Make It", sometimes this is easier said than done because if you're depending on others to help out financially, goals can be dragged out. Indeed, it's best to try achieving tasks on your own without interruption. Building confidence is a top priority to prosper.

Finding Your Niche:
Many people choose to stay at home with their kids, not having an income can hurt the family but if other family members are working than life is manageable. Parents stay home if they don't trust anyone to watch their children, conflict of scheduling activities or can't afford to pay a babysitter. Nevertheless, this is why some parents look for legitimate work at home jobs and start researching on how to start a business.
Parents and single adults result to public assistance and nonprofits for help as their last alternatives.

Structural Differences:
In other countries they don't have welfare and get a lot of help and depending on their demographic areas, different governments and some with no government structure in place and everyday is haywire and critically a burden and worrisome for people.

Do People Steal Because They're Poor?
Is it because they don't have anything? or They're too lazy to search for employment?
What about people who have decent paying jobs and steal or involved in other illegal activities?
Is it an adrenaline rush, peer pressure or arrogance?

Solution Step 2: Always ask family members, friends, acquaintances, former co-workers and others.

Solution Step 3: Walking in the Employment Center for job assistance is a great start and researching local nonprofits who assist job seekers.

In conclusion, thinking of creative ideas to grab potential hiring employers attention by marketing resumes in unique ways like on a Cereal Box, Recycling Bag, A Project Board, Fruit Basket, Vase of Flowers, T-shirts and other creative ideas to land a job. Indeed, you can use video such as www.instagram.com and

How To Start A Nonprofit?

Starting a nonprofit is rewarding in serving a mission and 100 percent dedication in assisting participants.

9 Essential Ways To Get Started:

1. Create a nonprofit name

2. Register the name at a local business center that distributes business licenses. It usually  costs $100 or less for a nonprofit name.

3. Then you go to www.irs.gov and search for starting a charity to download the 1023 Application to complete and mail to the IRS.

4. Selecting at least three Board Members (VOLUNTEERS) is the minimum that is required and you must create a mission statement (What is your nonprofit about?) Example: To establish the youth inability to rise above poverty and become productive citizens in society and continuation of their education.

5. If all your information is correct to be mailed to the IRS and they don't have to send it back to you for more data then it usually takes about 30-45 days to received an approval letter from the IRS stating that you have been approved to be a 501 (c) (3) tax exempt (from paying taxes) entity.

6. It will be a challenge to keep a nonprofit afloat and maintain a lifetime of sustainability with maintaining a balanced budget with a positive cash flow (money coming in and money going out).

7.  Nevertheless, creating a strategic fundraising plan and taking action on the ideas is life or death of your nonprofit.

8. There are a few books on Fundraising Ideas that is helpful.

9. Applying to as many foundations as you like and hoping to get selected is encouraging and self-confidence. In addition to be eligible to apply for grants through foundations you can register with
www.grants.gov, individual donors, and you can sell products or services like t-shirts, pens, pencils, books and other ideas.
