When will banks start lending again?
Several sources have said that the year-to-date job losses are 760,000. Do you have a plan to supplement your income?
I realized that my corporation was in serious trouble when the Small Business Administration didn’t have any money to lend; moreover, the top level executives didn’t even know when they would have anymore capital to loan to businesses large, medium, or small.
Truly, this marks a clear downshift in the economy and people who had jobs are now being forced to look for a new job in a starving market. There was a net loss of 159,000 jobs in September and you guessed it-- this is the ninth straight month the U.S. economy has lost jobs. I never thought I would have to update my resume for any other reason than to include it in my business plan.
We now have a $700 billion bailout plan that was signed into law but there’s no near future end in sight. The question remains, “Will it prompt banks to lend and help the economy get out of the red?” I understand that life without the bailout bill would be much worse, but what is going to happen with this bill and when?
Even thought the rescue plan has passed and financial experts insist that government action is better than the alternative—most would say, “I need a US Treasury bill with at least five zeros in each corner, front and back, in my pocket today!” That’s what 304.5 million in 2008 American population would call a bailout. It’s also wishful thinking.
Like so many other Americans I turned to the internet to find a source that would bail me out. My frustration is a result of what I should have expected in the first place. Even the scammers need a bailout. They are scrupulous and devious while feeding you a crock of crap in pursuit of making a farce sale.
6 TIPS WHILE IN SEARCH OF A BAILOUT (A JOB)
1. Stay far away from websites that ask you to pay them an upfront fee for work at home jobs. Don’t believe the hype! Any business that is interested in hiring will not ask you for money. They will only pay you for your services.
2. While searching for a telecommute position, update your resume to reflect your work-at-home capabilities and cater it to employers who hire home workers. Do you have a computer, internet access, fax machine, additional land lines, software, etc.? Put those capabilities into your resume and cover letter. I could write a book about the resume and cover letter subjects but for now I’ll stick to the topic. Think of your resume as your sales letter and use your cover letter to close the deal. Using a standard cover letter that looks like you just picked a business out of the phone book and decided to ask them for a job is too generic. Using a standard text cover letter can also be a waste of time. Do the research, make the calls and focus on the company you can see yourself working for. Then write your cover letter to reflect why you would be uniquely qualified to do the job.
3. Never send your resume to anyone who lists a job without any contact information. Don’t even bother to click on a link. People who own legitimate businesses and pay for advertising will be more than happy to brag about an available position and seize the opportunity to advertise by publishing their name and contact information as well.
4. Proofread then have someone else read and proof read your resume and cover letter for you. Do not send an email, fax, attachment, or copy and paste until you do.
5. Be careful with Craigslist. You may wind up with an inbox full of spam. Once again no contact information usually means ulterior motives.
6. Don’t wait until you’ve been scammed to realize it. Try a free work at home job. I found a couple that don’t involve telemarketing, customer service, or call centers. Feel free to visit my blog for more information. I began to wonder if there is just one honest soul on the Internet. Finally I came across my bailout and its working. The best part is I don’t need your resume and I don’t need to sell you anything because the training materials are free.
Amazingly, the bill that was passed by legislatives won’t bailout the economy tomorrow or next week or even next month. Frozen credit markets are still icebergs, but that doesn’t give scammers a free pass to scam on…and…on…and…on!
Unfortunately, it remains to be seen as to how long it will take to jump start our miserably ailing economy. In the meantime you can use the free strategies to supplement your income. I know what it’s like to be in the market for a job unexpectedly. Here’s the free work at home jobs blog address: http://blognpost.blogspot.com/
