It's when you don't hold a job with longer hour's you look for a second one.
40hrs a week is the ideal when the rate is good,but 60hrs a week will sustain you

Lord have mercy

That's very expensive.

The Lord is your muscle.

It's Canadian dollar not USD.

Whats the essence of this post other than showing off and childishness. Peoples circumstances in life are different. We have people at home doing better than those abroad and we have some residing in Western World who are stucked there for years and cannot even feed themselve. We all know those abroad send money home regardless of the country. Even those at home spend more money on their loved ones. We can't be comparing and competing with ourself. This post is highly unnecessary. God can bless anyone regardless of the country you are and your situation can change quickly.
