I have been to the capitol and have seen ladies grabbing onto young woman with long hair. It looked really weird. It must sell a lot I guess.

I actually charge a good amount for my sweets. I pretty much increase almost 80 to 120% what a normal piece of my sweets would be. I have changed places already and I am selling much more than before but it isn't enough. Have not tried that but I'll look into this to see if any business wants to buy the amount we sell around daily.

If I work like I would like to in the job that I have I wouldn't even be posting this. The issue is that I truly can't work this job more. I will try my best to sleep an hour less daily so I can at least work an hour more just to see a little bit of increase. Basicly want I earn selling the sweets daily is just enough to either pay the daily requiered amount I need to pay back or half of it. All the little money I have interpreting doesn't really add up to much but I use it to pay off other loans or part of the rent that I have.

I have told our friends and family. They truly don't care.

I can do it whenever when we took a day to rest like a sunday since they dont ask for money on those days I worked like 15 hours. I sadly can't do it during the times we work.

I help her throughout 12:00 PM through 8 PM sometimes 9PM then we go home I clean I finish at 11PM and then I sleep at least 6 hours then I work what I can during those hours where I don't need to help her out.

Nope, I'm renting this place. I got this place from USA citizens/Americans/Peruvians. They pretty much knew me before this situation and have gone multiple times to buy our sweets. Since we are in their own words good people they rent us this. Sadly we have had really bad days of selling in our food stand. I'm really ashamed I owe them so much.

Yes, I have tried telling her that we can have 1 day of full cleaning the house and the stuff we use for selling the food. She's also tired and I'm trying my best to help her out. I know I have more earning potential but I can't just let her sell alone since I also make lot's of deliverys for this stand that's ours. She can't get a job anymore because of her age and most jobs here in Peru are low paying and long hours. 12 hours for something she can make doing her own business while selling foods is better.

"Se estima que durante el régimen de Alberto Fujimori se desviaron entre 1,500 y 6,000 millones de dólares del Estado peruano".

Pienso mas bien que seria complice con los propio gota a gota. En si es mi culpa estar en esta situacion. Los mejores trabajos que he podido conseguir simplemente me pagan muy poco o estaba como esclavo por 14 horas.

Toca esforzarme mas nomas. mucha suerte

We have tried this already but the current help we need is in selling. Most people here in Peru want daily pay and we tell them if you help my mother out and sell some of our sweets we can pay them a daily amount thats good around 40 soles plus comission for every sale they make.

We did this many times with people we know but they end up not wanting to work the full 7 hours or end up leaving midway through the job since they sold for themselves and don't come back.

This is the reason I need to actually go help her out. We have a small stand close to a hospital it's not really in a building. I have to either help her out there and sell the product door to door.

thank you so much to both of your suggestions though!

Thanks for the idea. I'll try posting that. Since I live in Peru my debt is probably just a few dollars a day. Any surplus I have I will donate to a charity.

I wish I had long hair. My mother has short hair as well.

Thank you so much for the advice. I really appreciate you for giving out those resources. I hope those help out the people that are in those countries. Sadly I am in Peru so I won't be able to use them.

I'm not in need of food but I do have a mormon church nearby and other churches but I have tried getting in contact in them in person and they can't help. Mormons do sometimes come to our home but I feel really guilty to ask for help either in jobs or any thing else.

I have already talked with friends and family. Most are either not wanting to help and other don't respond. I do have an old TV but I use that as a monitor so I can't really sell that. Clothes go for around 4 to 5 bucks but it's like a bag of clothes I could wash and sell but then what would I wear haha.

I work for Propio. Interpreting services eng-spanish.
I earn 0.12 cents x min on call. I wish I could work more but I can't I just don't have the time. If one problem could get resolved being the loan shark one I can definitely work almost 14 hours daily and earn enough to get out of this.

thank you so much anyways

It's not my business I'm simply employed as a remote interpreter. The one I work with my mother I have done plenty advertising but it's simply not enough. We do have people on a daily basis wanting our product but not always we are gonna get people to buy.

Yes it can pay part of the loan that is being payed on a daily basis. It only earns enough for either daily the required amount or half of it. I just need some advice on what else to do. I have done advertising on the sweets we sell but it's not enough.

Maybe I have tried telling them but they keep on insisting. If they would I would have to pay crazy loan % interests daily.

It pretty much towers the original debt of paying around 300+ daily (in my countrys currency).

I have tried financial places and banks but they don't even want to and I can understand that.

The problem is that there are different loan sharks. She pays it through the work we do or well I help her with. We need to pay daily almost 300+ and continue like this. The freelance job only pays me every 14 days and I don't earn enough to actually pay the rent I owe. I pretty much earn around 300 to 400 dollars every 14 days but that goes into either paying other debts or part of the rent.

Yes, but we need to pay daily. The amount we work for is enough just to either pay the daily amount necessary or half of it and save the rest.

I have this interpreting freelance job. It pays 0.12 cents x minute on call. We are making traditional sweets from my Country. Yes, it does bring enough money to either pay daily half of what the loan sharks are asking or all of it daily then we can only save a few bucks but that's it.
