I am hugely critical of most self-help information, but this is not what your site is. I save 1 in 2 of these and have kept a library folder. They are intelligent, concise, relevant and are pitched at exactly the right level." -Martin Chalk, CEO, Balance Water

Beauty School Drop In

Beauty School Drop In

If Frenchy were around in during this current economic crisis, would the most fashionable of the Pink Ladies at Rydell High have been so quick to tell her to pack up her shears? Chances are, probably not. Educational experts are predicting that the current economic downturn will lead to higher enrolment numbers at colleges and universities, especially at community colleges and trade schools.



This includes people who already have undergraduate and even graduate degrees in more traditional fields. The shift in demographics is great news for any older folks who are planning on returning to college. With all these other people headed back to school, you probably won't be the only one who has to rush out of class to pick up your kids from karate or has to turn down a night at the bar in order to prepare a proposal for work the next morning.

We're not really surprised at the news, given that many of our members have recently shared in our Career channel that they're looking for creative ways to pick up extra cash! Even if you don't have the time or resources for heading back to school, you can parlay your knitting skills into a part-time business, or start babysitting in the evenings.

Have you considered extra education in the hopes of making more money?

Great Mother is Real... I am Aisha Kun and i want to testify about Great Mother how she cured me of hiv aids. I was diagnosed of this disease some time ago and i was worried. when i was searching the internet looking for a cure, i came across some testimonies of Great Mother how she has helped a lot of people and i decided to contact her on her info and explained to her. She laughed and told me that she will help me and i was surprised. She sent me the cure and it was a spiritual holy oil and water which is more than a medicine. She directed me on how to take it and i did. I took the cure for 3 weeks and i went to the doctor for check up and to my greatest surprise the disease was no longer in my system. I am so glad and i want to thank Great Mother for helping me.

TRUSTED LENDER (LEXIELOANCOMPANY@YAHOO.COM)
My name is Michael Lee a citizen of Illinois, USA. i have been scammed by 7 different Internet international lender, they all promise to give me a loan after making me pay several fees which yield nothing and amounted to no positive result. i lost my hard earn money and it was a total of 23930USD. One day as i was browsing through the internet with tears on my eye i came across a testimony of man who was also scammed and eventually got linked to a legit loan company called MARTINEZ LEXIE LOAN COMPANY where he finally got his loan, so i decided to contact the same loan company and then told them my story on how i have been scammed by 7 different lenders who did nothing but to course me more pain. I explain to the company by mail and all they told me was to cry no more because i will get my loan in their company and also i have made the right choice of contacting them. I filled the loan application form and proceeded with all that was requested of me and to my greatest surprise my loan was granted to me without further delay and here i am today happy because Martinez Lexie Loan Company HAS GIVEN ME A REASON TO LIVE, so i made a vow to my self that i will keep testifying on the internet on how i got my loan.

I love to drop in a beauty schoo. I get a professional facial which is really great!!!!! and a manicure every couple of months. I wish I could do it more often!!! I do get my hair styled and it comes out really great. The students that work on you are usually are close to graduating and have the professors looking over there shoulders to make sure they are doing everything correct. With not having a job my money last longer and I feel great when I leave. I feel great that I pamper myself now. There was a time even though I was broke and feeling guilty to even spend a scent, I found that the uplift in spirit did wonders for so many areas in my life. Eventually, even my cash flow increased as well, I got a job and everything started to work out.
