Jewelry, party purses, kitchen utensils, food items, Tupperware, candles, and scrapbooking are just a few of the products sold through the home party networks. Facilitated by consultants and hosted by friends and acquaintances, these parties have created an opportunity for people to work from home or to supplement their income while leaving the 9-5 grind behind. Using extensive networking and presentation skills, consultants outline products available. The hostess for the party invites friends and family into her home to participate and shop for a variety of products. Party networks cater to women, both from a sales and marketing perspective as well as from an employment perspective.

A particularly popular sales item for these parties are candles. Many women who want to stay at home with their children supplement their family’s income by selling scented candles through candle parties. These parties tend to be at nights and on the weekends so it is ideal working hours for ladies who want to work during non-traditional times. Easy to sell, jar candles are a common household item. Candle parties meet both social and economic needs; consultants find the work fun and stimulating. For candle consultants, an outlet for them to interact with other women and sell their products is a winning combination.

When I took Matt to the doctor the other day for his checkup, it really hit me how fast he’s growing up. That’s why I’m going to open a savings account for my child. Money is a little tight right now, but I can find a little money each pay period to put into his account.

Also, I’m going to start his account with the cash for gold that I got last week. I decided it was high time to sell scrap gold jewelry that I no longer had any use for. Let me tell you, it was a great decision. The value of gold is pretty high, and the company compensated me very well for my old jewelry.

I’m also thinking about holding a garage sale pretty soon to earn a little extra money for Matt’s savings account. It will also help get rid of a lot of the clutter in our house! We have so much stuff taking up space that we haven’t used in months if not years.

Anyway, I’m excited about opening up the savings account for my child. By putting in a little money over the long-term, I think he’ll have a nice sum of money later on in life.

I bet that many of you didn’t know that you are a corporate engineer in training did you?  Each time you sit behind the wheel of your car, you are taking on many responsibilities that corporate engineers and mechanics do every day.

Each day you have lubrication systems and cooling systems that you are responsible for.  You must make sure that you have enough oil in your car to keep the engine parts running smoothly and you must keep enough water in your cars motor to keep it cool and running.  Water flow measurement is easily done in one of two ways.  First, you have a temperature gauge in your car.  If this is approaching the danger area, then you must take action to cool the car down.  Also, you must keep your water bottle and radiator filled with water at all times.

You even have an oil flow monitor that you must watch every day.  If your oil light comes on, then you know it’s time to put some oil in the car.  Of course, hopefully you are checking your oil before the light comes on. 

I know some of these things are considered basic car maintenance but they are not dissimilar to what a corporate engineer does every day on the job.  Of course, you don’t get paid six figures to monitor the gauges on your car.
