I'm happy because the slow month is almost over! Seriously....I've made less than $3k this month. I usually make anywhere from $180-$640 per day (typically $5,400-$12k a month). Not that I'm complaining. 3k is good, but it sorta makes you worry you're doing something wrong with your advertising or services when you get so little business for such a long time. I made $270 today so things are sorta getting back to normal. Tomorrow I have a guaranteed $180 without doing any work at all. It's good to have things back to almost normal again.
Not that I'm keeping all this money. I normally invest it, but my family is in financial crisis right now so I've gotta make enough to keep my ma and great aunt/uncle from going under. Ma needs to borrow about $1200-$1500 per month and my great aunt/uncle need at least $2.5k every month. Needless to say I haven't made enough yet this month. I need to make about $700 more to keep them from going under.....otherwise I gotta take money from my reserves, which I really don't like to do. I use my reserve money to buy parts and stuff so I can make MORE money. The lower my reserves get, the less potential money I can make per month. I just spent $1,200 on used computers and I plan to spend another $500 for DDR ram and $1,000 on hard drives. Getting about $200 worth of DVD burners wouldn't be a bad idea either. I'm also planning to spend $2k on a lot of 50 used computers. That'll make 'em $40 each for a P4 2.4ghz computer with 512mb of ram and a 40gb hard drive along with a legit copy of XP Pro. I can sell 'em for $100 each easy.
