I thought about this since yesterday. I can't put "money" in the same category as "feeding my family or they starve". Generating monitary wealth is another story.

My family would not starve no matter how poor we were. I can food in the fall. I am able to hunt and fish. My children would eat. I raise food. If it were to the point of needing food because I was physically incapable of doing it? I have resources that would gladly give me what I need because I have spent my time giving to them - it may be in the form of giving respect, information, helpful advice, or just pointing them in the right direction. But I could name a hundred people who would gladly provide food for my family if it was requested.

However. Generating money for providing them perks and comforts is a different ball game. In one day I could post I was looking for work on any of several local message boards I participate in and would have tutoring, teaching or computer repair jobs. But my preference would remain via the internet utilizing web sites. There are a zillion people to reach on the net. Provide a service or product that everyone needs and wants is going to give exponential results. A good product and word of mouth by happy customers is the most valuable resource one could have. Also, providing expertise to newbies is quite a valuable resource.
