Should I go for it? Work

I’m thinking of setting up myself an income on the internet. It should cost no more than £1000 to begin with and then it should pay for it’s self. Thing is I’m on benefits and I depend on them to help pay my debt I have. I would just continue to claim the benefit at first just to see if this plan pays and notify the benefits office once I’m confident I have an income, my trail period would be a few months until deciding if to continue.

Motivation is a huge problem, concentration and depression, but the beauty is, is that I work my own hours at my own speed. My confidence has also taken a huge hit with this illness but I would be dealing with people by email, no face to face or phone calls thank god.

Great idea. I think you should try it. Becoming self-employed was one of my best choices in life. It’s better to worry about your clients than about your boss/manager. And it also gives a great confidence-boost. Now I even have an employee :slight_smile:

I couldn’t handle a normal job working for someone. I have nothing to really offer to anyone else as I’m unskilled, I would end up in a food factory which I tried working in, in my teens and what horrible places and jobs they can be.

Then it’s definitely worth a shot.
