When my husband's coffee ☕ shop business failed to produce sufficient income to cover expenses and provide for us adequately he fell into a deep depression and felt most discouraged. He slept at the shop to protect his interests when construction and changes ensued. He never spoke of his feelings 😞 because that's not what he does 😔 and not what I do much of either. He decided to eventually change to a household items 🏪 store. It was a decision between a store like that or a fish restaurant. I have always told him to open a 🥯🧁 bakery as it's guaranteed to be a success but he never liked the idea 💡 of the long and early hours to start. I can't blame him as it's a huge commitment to make if it's something you don't really want to do. In Safi, Morocco where we live, people are generally quite poor. We all seem to struggle for money and people have very little to spend so they spend on essential items and their children mostly. In the bigger cities, people have more money. Anyway how often do you buy new pots, pans, brooms, glasses? So of course the new store 🏪 did not generate sufficient income either 😞😕. So of coúrse more depression came with the financial recession as the two go hand in hand ✋✋. It's much more than that .. mental trauma, torture, low self esteem, 🤬 anger, rage, lashing out. I am sure you are familiar with these things and have witnessed something similar in your own lives or in the lives of people around you. So after the anguish and mental strife he decided to once again open a coffee ☕ shop again.  I, in the meantime have been trying to generate an online income. He thought I should teach English to Moroccan children but I didn't want to do that. I loved working online and it was my passion so that's what I should pursue. So it was difficult to generate income 😕 especially when I was starting from zero. My husband paid the internet and that was essential of course. He had also provided me with a computer 🖥️💻 and I had a mobile 📱📲 phone 🤳. I joined Webtalk and thanks to my sponsor who paid for my upgrade, I managed to earn some income. I grew a massive downline of over 45000 members and then I had to pay for the internet and electricity too. I tried to generate income from other bizops but either they took forever ♾️ and a day to launch and required investment but never paid or it paid but monopoly money 🤑💰 as my father called cryptocurrency. It's money that represents an illusion of what could be if and when...liquidity...etc actually comes. So you potentially have thousands of dollars that you have earned but can never actually withdraw to your bank account and spend it. How useful and helpful is that? Morocco is not crypto friendly and has a very long ways to go with their stone age banking 😮. I had a hard time opening up a PayPal account. Anyway... Webtalk sunsetted the beta launch and our much needed incomes. That happened in July 2023. My husband still expects me to pay the internet and I refused to pay the electricity as I am barely able to float my financial 🚢⛵ boat nowadays. My family has helped but nowadays everyone is struggling. I joined LiveGood knowing that Webtalk was struggling financially. So how did that go? I got a few referrals who got a few referrals too but then nobody could recruit anymore. I finish my year with LiveGood this month. I made back more than I invested so I made a profit but I was expecting much more...Afterall I got in at the start and the matrix was compressed and the only place new members can go under...are the members that are already there...right? Wrong. So the financial struggle continues... I have pretty much run out of money to sustain my online business as my husband refuses to pay the internet 😔. I am making money but it's not enough to pay the internet. I have been online since mid 2019 and no I would never give up trying to succeed in doing what I love. Am I a failure or have my chosen bizops failed me? Have I being lied to? Yes, many times. People 🤥 lie. Have there been unavoidable delays, challenges, obstructions that these bizops have faced due to no fault of their own? Sure. The road to success is long and arduous. In order to succeed you need to invite others to walk along the path...towards success....but whether you reach the destination or 🚫 not, remains to be seen. So many affiliates, network marketers, comrades have died before tasting that sweet taste of success. So I shall be forced to quit for a while, not because I am choosing to quit but because I do not have the support from the bizops I have supported over these years. They keep their phantom money 🤑💰 locked away in their phantom safes, under lock🔒🔐 and key...no smoking 🚬 barrels from me...and the struggle we are ashamed to speak of...continues. Financial struggle is something to be ashamed of, something people don't want to admit or acknowledge...sweep it under the rug. Well, since I am going under the radar, I better speak 🗣️🙊 of it, while I still can. Very soon I shall become one of the unheard and unseen people...the ones too poor to be able to afford to even pay for the internet at home 🏠 🏡. My husband has internet at his ☕ coffee shop. I might pop in sometimes so I can go online. So how will I resurrect myself from my tomb of financial oblivion? ONPASSIVE or Webtalk? When will it happen? 😨 Only time will tell. Being a part of the online world 🌎🌍 is something so normal nowadays and an expected luxury but it is a luxury nonetheless. Our lives are full of ironic contradictions. My husband owns the coffee ☕ shop but we are too cash poor to have coffee ☕ to drink in our home. If this article teaches you nothing but to be grateful for the everyday things you take for granted, then I am happy 😊.
