I need money...broke college student?

Hello,

I am in college and I need money. I'm only 18 so my bank won't give me a loan because I don't have enough credit history. I have been looking for a job ALL summer but I did not find one. I come from a very poor family and so they cannot help me. I have no way to get back to school or buy new clothes (I have only one pair of jeans), or anything else that I need because my mother, who is pure evil, stole my money (over $1,000). I'm extremely depressed and I'm thinking of committing suicide. Do I have any options such as a loan from online? I know that people say that they are bad and are loan sharks, but I have no other options it seems.

College students: how much money do you make a year?

i got some really great answers so far! i plan to work on campus and i really need to too because i have about $5000 a year that is still unaccounted for. *frown* and i think i will have fewer expenses because i will be living on campus (the reason i need that 5 grand) and i won't have a car (freshmen aren't allowed) so i won't have to pay for insurance or gas. and i will be on a meal plan so that expense is covered.

Can College students really make money selling for the Southwestern company?

RUN GRASSHOPPER, run fast! Away from this company! If you want to make money, go get a real job that pays you an hourly wage! If you want to own your own business, then go start one! But stay very far away from this brainwashing cult! And if you are a foreign student, STAY HOME and get a job there. OR come to American and find a real American job that will let you have a life and also make money!

Important financial information for ANY FOREIGN STUDENT TO KNOW BEFORE WORKING FOR SOUTHWESTERN!

According to the company, in 2006 the average first-time sales program participant made a gross (before expenses) profit of $7,944 over a four-month summer.

They never tell you the NET, always the gross. I think there is pun intended there! Here is a breakdown...PAY ATTENTION!

* 80 hours a week, plus Sundays=88 hrs. wk
* 15 weeks of summer
* 1,320 work hours
* Gross profit of $7,944.00
* Net Profit $40 percent=$3,177.60
* Hourly wage=$2.40
* Minus $100 week living expensive=$1,677.60

NOW on the contract YOU SIGN with Southwestern for the 2008 work agreement- they state an average GROSS profit of (not fixed) for 2007 of $1,726.53

* 80 hours a week, plus Sundays=88 hrs. wk
* 15 weeks of summer
* 1,320 work hours
* Gross profit of $6,906.12
* Net Profit $40 Percent=$2,762.44
* Hourly wage=$2.09
* Minus $100 week living expensive=$1,262.44


Your take home is $1,677.60 FOR THE ENTIRE SUMMER on the 2006 figures and $1,262.44 for 2007! And if you take the latter number of a net profit of $1,262---because NET IS what you GET and average that out to an hourly wage, YOU ARE MAKING 96 CENTS AN HOUR!!!!

Do not come to America and spend $3000+ dollars getting here only to be an indentured servant(SLAVE) to the SouthWestern Company!
The numbers above are for average English speaking students. Imagine how little you will make when you can't speak the language!

RUN RUN RUN away from this company as fast as you can!
