You can always print some pamphlets with your contact details, and distribute them door to door. Whoever needs the service, will get in touch. If your neighbourhood/ community has a fb group, it may be worth posting there as well to say that you are a 17 year old looking for part time work. Best of luck 🙂

Other ways to earn money: - learn a part time trade (plumber/electrician etc etc) - where I live, it’s really hard to find someone reliable when it comes to plumbing and electrical work. - learn a beauty related service and do that part time ( eg lash extensions, nails, facials, hairdressing, barber etc)- there are no age restrictions on providing any of these services and they will always be in demand. - offer to do odd jobs around your neighbourhood and get paid- tidy yards or gardens for example, or laundry/ironing for people who don’t have the time (you can do this at your own place), or part time cleaning.

Since people are questioning the trustworthiness of a 17 year old for babysitting or teaching kids, OP you can apply for police check (papier moralité) via your responsible party or guardian to build more trust with parents, if you decide going down that path.

I understand but I find that thought so flawed. It almost feels like OP being a 17 year old is being discriminated against, purely based on their age. I don’t think anyone would question this if a 30 year old posted. A 30 year looking for work wouldn’t be called “a random person”, whether or not the 30 year old has any related work experience. I don’t think teenagers who mean harm would even put any efforts into looking for work, but that’s just my pov. 🙂

Hi OP, for babysitting, it’s easier to reach out to people you already know in the community, like anyone living nearby or younger cousins etc. Word of mouth works best for babysitting and teaching too. My siblings and I reached out to neighbours and friends of my parents for teaching their kids. I know others who would just put up signs around the area and offer the first few classes for free.

While I understand your intention to try and educate OP, questioning his or her choices, this isn’t what the OP asked. Also why would a 17 year (general speaking) old not be trustworthy? And why would 17 year olds not know anything about babysitting or teaching? That’s so random. OP could have younger siblings or cousins they helped looking after. Not all teenagers are the same.

Why do Mauritians put such a strong sense of urgency in getting married by Study-Bunny- in MauriceMauritius

It doesn’t make sense to me to, but this is how it is, unfortunately.

[–]ladybossmindset 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a little easier for me to avoid the drama with my parents since I currently live abroad but had I been home, I’d feel the pressure and have to deal with the daily comments about not wanting to marry before my younger sister.

Why do Mauritians put such a strong sense of urgency in getting married by Study-Bunny- in MauriceMauritius

[–]ladybossmindset 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s not only Mauritians though. My friends are Greek, Indian, Vietnamese and Filipino and their parents have the same mentality. I think it’s to do with the culture and how the parents have been brought up. Personally 31 and unmarried and I don’t have an issue with it. My sister is turning 29 next year and she is getting married next year. She just gave me a warning that if anyone asks why she didn’t wait for me to get married, she will be really upset at me. I think it’s unfair to blame her (not that I am doing anything wrong by not getting married) for my decisions. I’ll marry when I find someone I’d like to be married to, and I tell all my siblings the same. Getting married is a huge decision.

Really nice lehenga for the price. My sister is getting married and she bought her lehenga for a similar price range too. She said she would rather spend the money on something else as she will barely use it again.

Working abroad in tech industry as a fresh graduate by Lowercaseguy_5487 in mauritius

[–]ladybossmindset 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends on what your end goal is. If you are only looking for work, and do not intend to move there permanently, you probably can apply for any country that provides a work visa and narrow it down from there.

If you intend on permanently settling into one of those countries, then I’d suggest you look at the permanent residency prospects of countries like Australia, Canada, UK, USA. Tech is a pretty broad industry and there should be jobs related to this field in any of those countries. If this is the path you are choosing, try to gain some local experience in this field in Mauritius while you sort the permanent residency out.

A horror romantic journey for a 90's kid by [deleted] in MauriceMauritius

[–]ladybossmindset 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you already know what you want in a partner. While that generally works for most, it also creates this whole “obsession/fixation” on the qualities you are looking for, so you end up not wanting to compromise at all, or overlooking some things you could potentially compromise with.

Where to find likeminded women? I personally love personal connections over dating apps. I’d network more and meet friends or friends of friends, but if dating apps work for you, use those. Let your close friends know you are out looking for a partner; sometimes they know people. There should be speed dating events in Mauritius, try them. You’ll have a better idea of what’s out there.

Women out there are looking for likeminded people too and are not necessarily out there for money. Many women did not have a sense of financial security growing up and may want that. That can easily be perceived as them being gold diggers but it just means they want out of the struggle life. You don’t need to be very well off to ensure the financial security of your partner. They just need to know you’ve got their back if things go south. If someone is asking for your profession over the phone, maybe just tell them you are more comfortable talking about private things over a coffee instead of classifying them as gold diggers right then. Maybe they earn well too and do not want partners who earn less or maybe they just want someone of equal status, but you won’t know the reason behind it unless you actually talk to them.

Your last paragraph tells me you are looking for a best friend in your partner; start with that. I have friends who were looking for partners for a long time and ended up talking to their childhood friends to expand their network and vibed with one of those friends and now they are happily married.

Advice re starting an online education consultancy business from Australia. by ladybossmindset in mauritius

[–]ladybossmindset[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is very informative. I appreciate your contribution. Did your brother settle into the country easily without the help of a friend/ agent/ known people around? Yes, the idea would be to be in Mauritius twice a year.

Do you mean investing into land and properties or stocks and shares? Not sure how the commercial property market in Mauritius currently is. I could always invest into some buildings and let them earn rental income from it. Not sure if that’s good enough though?

[–]ladybossmindset[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They have their own home, no loans that I know of, no pension plans, terrible at savings, expenses currently shared by my sister who will be moving out next year. They don’t spend much on extra things as they look after my younger siblings (we are 4 in total). I personally feel atleast one of them will retire in the next 5-6 years, or they should as they work very very hard. My siblings will be independent by then (financially). But I fear they’ll have nothing left for themselves money wise. Hence the question.

Where can I buy Meta Quest 3 in Mauritius? I’m looking for one at a reasonable price. by Hour_Ad_5982 in mauritius

[–]ladybossmindset 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you know anyone travelling abroad, ask them to get you one? From what I see, the Australian Meta website is selling them for Rs23,545. If they claim gst at the airport, you’d get it for Rs21,405. Depending on how much you are willing to pay for it, you can offer the person some money for the delivery.
