M.s. And Bills

This is exactly the forum for you! Money is probably the biggest issue with any chronic weakness. The way the world is set up, survival of the fittest is sadly the law and how does it feel to see your friends gradually disappear watching them climb the ladder you were once on?

Firstly, you are now different and no longer in the rat race. Hurrah for that, alone! Take a little solace is smelling the roses, even if the fridge is empty. I know that one. Secondly, poverty is relative to your detachment from social norms. People should know you are ill. They can be indifferent but they know and even strangers (sometimes your best friends!) have to cool it.

Next, your mind is beyond your cns and has a natural inclination for normal life of course. But "the flesh is weak". Knowing your actual state physically is vital before undertaking any money-making enterprise. Then proceding wisely, but with courage, is best. See peletier's book "sound mind sound body" for deep wisdom and inspiration. This is not supermarket reading and shows how people with capacity overcome grave disabilities and come out on top professionally due to will power and strategies. You have to be strategic in that world out there, even if not a devil.

Lastly, I have studied business at grad school. Are you an experienced business person, even on the smallest levels? My feeling is go ahead with networking on low or no investment levels. See how savvy you become. This is vert general but, again, the mind is beyond body, and using your mind beyond your body, without depending upon the latter too much, is a consideration. I'm going on. But you struck a critically important note here for everyone. In aother words you are not alone! Just be careful about the internet gurus and their business plans. The management of ms comes before the management of business always. You are feeling the crunch. Wow, how that feels over the long term! Work should be pleasant. Be frugal - sometimes we spend more than we think on "necessities" - try and put away a few dollars a week continually with determination. If you have trouble writing and communicating relax and flow as you read and get a handle on your new venture. But we all have to keep track of our own progression with ms. Communications and a coonsistent presencce are primary for making a living independently in any field I know of. But the internet disguises your absence, although it is complex in setting up. Look into it. There are good sites for weaker people. If I discover something I will hope to get back to you. Search around but hold on to yout credit car number. Maybe contact with richdad.Com may give you a few ideas and they may respond to enquires from people in your condition. Even in building a network, there will have to be a sound business plan of some kind and a product for distribution. I hope this has helped and not challenged you. You seem like a very kind soul. If the above is not applicable just ignore it. Books like "out of the box for life" help in psychologically dealing with the "impossible".
