I was once told by a mentor that during difficult and trying times one should adhere to one’s core values. And when all else fails, fall on the sword of truth.

I am looking forward for business tips from Tom Prendergast, I know he can handle business. Starting a part time business is a great way to bring in extra income, for debt relief or saving up for a big vacation, or just some extra beer money. For instance, making jewelry in the home, or at least the kind that doesn't require you to get a kiln or smelter (you can't lost wax cast on the kitchen stove), can bring in a few thousand extra bucks a year, if you can consistently sell it. There's also baking –everyone loves cupcakes. Or you could board pets for people that are always traveling. You could take that hobby you have a passion for, and turn it into extra cash if you take the right steps.
