how to inform your family about your source of income

[RockBell]

why do i have to tell my family about my income? even i have never needed to disclose my family or friends about my income source.
it's my personal matter and i think it also confidential to me and my family never asked me about it. though i shared some of my friends of mine know about my online income.

I don't see the reason why I need to tell my family about my income because the moment they know they might increase your billing and might feel their is need for you to do more and that is one of the reason why when they don't know they will appreciate anyone you want to do. And another thing is that if they know we're you are working their is nothing you can do to convince them, they will bill you because with the company's name they will be able to predict the money you are earning so it is better to accept your faith in situation like that even your wife i don't think I will tell her, because we all know how women are with money the moment they find out they they will drive out peace from that house until they get what they want that is just women for you delete any form of alert if not if she sees it then you know the rest, am not yet married but money is usually one of the biggest problems that married people always have, to avoid problems like that just start planning on how you will manage your finances and how to manage matters when they arise because when they know you have they can even leave all the bills for you to pay that's women.

For me personally, I don't have too much trouble telling my family about my online income, because my family understands what freelancing is, so I explain to them that I work on forums as a freelancer. Maybe it's quite different from what I do here, but at least my family understands what I do and I don't do bad things to earn money. Because if I explain in detail about what I do, maybe they will be a little confused and not understand what I'm saying, especially since they have very little knowledge about bitcoin.

They will understand if you have informed them already. But for the other freelancers or those that relies solely on forums for their income, it's very unstable. And if they haven't told anyone from their family then no one is going to understand on how it goes for their end. That's why, telling your source or income will as well help you with the situation that your family won't rely on you that much so, be open on it and there's no need for you to be secretive. It's better that they know what you are up to so that you won't be pissed off as well when they're trying to ask you for some money.

I know some people working online find it hard to decide whether to let their family know about their income and its source. this problem is one of the major problem that youth working online in some countries are facing. so today we are going to talk about this.

I’m someone who, from the beginning of my life, has done nothing more than go to school and come back home. I don’t have any handwork, but still, I did not find it difficult to let them know I earn money online because what I’m doing is not a bad thing. I’m not scamming anybody, so the reason why some people are finding it difficult to tell their parents what they do online is that when your parents are not that understanding or they are kind of strict people, or maybe even if you tell them,

they won’t believe because of the kind of environment you are in or the kind of friends you have. You know there are some environments that are full of fraudulent behaviour, so in this kind of place, your parents may find it difficult to believe what you say. But another thing is that you will find it easy, and you can confront them confidently to tell them how you earn money online. If you know that what you are doing is legal and acceptable, but if you do illegal things, then you definitely can’t tell them.

Basically at your level you try to have outline this for your age, because manority of us have grown beyond that age where we need to explain the source of your money to anyone, be it family and friends, know that to make money you need to have privacy and secret, and many believe that bad things happen to whatever they let others know most especially the thing that only them have developed over time.

You are correct because OP is literally talking based on their level but for someone who have grown to take responsibility of their actions, it doesn't matter telling anyone about the kind of job or work you do online inasmuch as you are taking care of your bills and that of your family. Except someone who is still living in their parent's custody will need to explain to them about the things they do to make money from the Internet otherwise it's not necessary.

So for that, we just decide to remain private, I don't think at my age, anyone around me will still be questioning my earnings, most especially when I dont have anh questionable characters.

Yes of course, you don't owe anyone explanations to what you do online inasmuch as you are doing legitimate jobs and the world we are now is going digital or should I say we are in a digital era already were we don't necessarily need to appear physically to do jobs, people can work and earn at the convenience of their homes without going to the office so everyone should learn to adapt to this digital age we are now and shouldn't question anyone who is earning money online. The world has gone digital so we should accept it the way it is and not having negative thoughts of labeling people working online as fraudsters or internet scammers.

The rate at which Internet fraud have become rampant in the society lately contribute alot to the way people view those that work online, and also the way of life of an individual can also be a pointer to what the do really, when someone is working online a d have so many young friends always discussing deals, you will know that something is not right with them, but if you see a legitimate online worker you will know.

He she hardly have time for friend since most of his friend may probably be online and social media, no scammers walk alone, they are always in group which is one way to know scammers.

You are not far from the truth, like even when they are spending money, they spend extravagantly but someone who do legit work online knows that it wasn't easy for them to make the money so they spend judiciously so what you said is actually the gospel truth since the rate of frauds and scams now are on a very high rate but however, we cannot completely refer to people who spend extravagantly or who moves in groups as fraudsters because everyone is at liberty to live their life the way they want and some people who also make legit income also like flamboyant lifestyle so if they are suspected of being internet scammers then their are agencies and other government forces that checks the activities of people they suspect to be into frauds so it should be their duty to investigate the source of income of such a person.

You can't really say no scammers walk alone because some of them also values their privacy and doesn't like to appear much in public places as almost everything they literally need to facilitate their jobs and other things they need are being ordered online and the online vendors delivers to them at the comfort of their homes and however, there are also people that do legitimate jobs online and decides to move in groups so it shouldn't be a criteria for identifying Internet scammers or fraudsters.

One day, my Dad was telling me that he has raised me with a good discipline and has thought me all the things that is supposed to guide me through life and also how to handle my finance and also to raise my own family. So, at my age, my parents doesn't bother to start question me about my nature of job or what so ever. They will not also get scared about my nature of job because they are confident that they have given me a good home training not to ingagge in any illegal activity that will cause me or cause them problem.

If one is living a life where they have to start convincing or explaining to their parents if their job is legit or not, that means the parents are scared that the job might be illegal.

That alone has given them the confidence in you that you can never go outside from what they have taught you. As a young man that wants things to be in place base on what your parents showed you right from day 1, you won't want to let them down but still we have some who are being brought up the same way you said but they still fall out of line because of bad influence, friends also have a way of making someone go astray and it would be very hard to open up to disclose the nature of his/her job that's when ways of getting money isn't legal or in the right way.

There is nothing wrong with telling your family about your source of income. Parents of every family want to know what their children are doing to earn money. Are they making money legally or illegally?

Many of our members in this forum are spending time here besides their own jobs or businesses and I am one of them. I am working as a small entrepreneur and even trying to give time to this forum but now I hide the money earned from this forum to my family. Because the money earned from this forum is still not valid in our country so it will be considered as illegal money by my family. But my family is already aware about my offline based money making method. My way of earning money is small but it makes my family proud.

[Zanab247]

If you know that the source of your income is coming from a genuine source, and your family members what to know your source of income before they can relate or collect anything from you, you can tell them your online sources of income.or what is bringing the income. Recently, my parents was asking me where I my getting money to pay my school fees and house rent without them given me the money to do all those things in school, which I told them that I made all those money from Bitcointalk.org signature campaign and they where very happy for me to have such knowledge.

Now that am planning to establish other business once am done with my higher institution, it will  improve my source of income in the future because I was told that you don't need to depend on one source only, if you want to be stable in your wealth.

On the contrary, if my wife wanted to know my income, I would not hesitate to tell her, I don't think hiding my income from my family would benefit me.

Different from what you said, if my wife knew my income was high, she would find a way to stop me from spending wastefully because men are inherently very generous with their friends when they have money. And if she knew my income was decreasing, she would automatically cut down on unnecessary expenses to save money.

It's difficult to understand when you doubt and speak ill of your wife and loved ones, the people who are always by our side no matter what happens to us.

In addition, not trusting your wife and family means you are causing division in the family. If you can't trust them then you have no right to make them trust you.

[serjent05]

Do we really need this guideline to inform our family about our source of income?  I do not think there is a need to keep our source of income a secret to our family.  We may keep it a secret outside our first family but keeping it a secret to our first family sounds awkward.  

I feel like having a problem revealing our source of income to our immediate family shows distrust to the member.  And it should not be that way.  If you can't trust your immediate family about our welfare then I believe that kind of family is wicked.  As long as it won't put our family in danger then I do not think we need to be secretive about our source of income.

Family should be built with trust and concern and not with distrust and suspicion.  Also we should be patient in explaining if they fail to understand how it works, they are our first family after all.  If we are full of suspicion about them then we can just forget calling them our family.

That's what a parent can do as their best ever job. If you raise a kid that can handle themselves then you are going to end up with a good result, it will not matter too much and you are going to be able to handle it easily. We are going to end up with a good result as a grown up if we had parents who raised us well.

When you do that, you are not going to get a result that will be just fine, or something that will not be a big deal or anything like that, if we have something like this, we are going to get no questions asked, because it's going to be just a normal situation without any other situation, it's going to be just fine and we will be just fine. Of course this takes time, but we are going to be fine in the end.

Raising kids in a good manner or with discipline is still to the advantage of the parent, because they will have the peace of mind that their kids will not be involved in any illegal activity that can cause a lot of trouble for the family. Although some kids can decide to choose their own part, if they choose a bad lifestyle, that's when their parents feel so concerned to question every action the kid takes, including their source of income.

For example, I have seen a situation where parents refused to accept any money from their son because the kid refused to tell them the source of the money.

Looks like you have the same way as I do, the income from this forum is not publicly published because I consider it a side and I am here to maintain the confidentiality of myself, so there is no one who knows that I have a pretty good identity in the forum and already very long.

But unfortunately I am not very active in an offline business, so I use other methods that can be revealed to my family knowing where I get income, because I am not only active in the forum, but I also wade the world of the web3, some of the income that I can produce from airdrops , became a creator content, becoming a Crypto project telegram channel manager and so on, and they believe because they pay attention directly so I think I am quite safe until now.

You are correct. I said in one of my previous comments that some kids might choose their own part, which is different from the morals that they have learned from their parents, and once some parents notice it, they will definitely caution the child, and if the kid refuses to live uprightly, the parent will question almost every activity that their kid is involved in because they always want to make sure that they don't get into illegal activity.

I think if you mean earning from the signature campaign of this forum there will be no problem if you explain the income to your family, but some countries may not be legal with gambling activities so they think negatively of the explanation of generating income from promoting gambling projects. So I agree with you that we can explain income from other online jobs without intending to cheat the family but we want them to assume we are working illegally without getting in trouble with the law.

Everyone has their own way of explaining income to the family in their own way, the family just wants to make sure we earn income from real and legal work, so they don't want other people to think their children are rich from theft, narcotics and other income.

Yes, that's right. We have to be open with our families about where our income comes from, even if they don't understand this forum, let alone bitcoin. But, if we explain it slowly, eventually they will understand. Even if they don't understand, at least they know that we get money the right way, not from the wrong sources.

I myself have tried to explain to my family, at first they didn't understand at all, but because I kept trying to explain, they finally understood. Indeed, they will not understand completely, but at least they don't think badly of my income. So, the reason I keep explaining to them is because my family initially thought I got my income from gambling. 

[Juse14]

It may be quite difficult to explain the online work we do to our parents. Especially if they are not tech-savvy. The curiosity and concern of parents towards their children about how their children can make money just by looking at a laptop, of course this is difficult for us to accommodate, so we have no choice but to explain about the work we have. Unless our parents really don't care and pay attention to us, then most likely questions about the work we have will never arise.

Although it will be quite difficult to explain about the online work we have, we must explain it anyway. Apart from this aiming to eliminate the curiosity and concern of parents about the work we have, it can also prevent us from a wild view that can have a negative impact on us.

Yes, it's true, even in every region in every neighborhood there are different responses to gambling, some are normal and some become negative sentiments towards us, so it's best to be more realistic in determining what we need to explain so that we stay safe and continue to operate properly.

I also remember that previously I was said to be someone who worshiped mystical creatures to earn money, because indeed in my family environment it is quite close to the old culture, so many assumed that, but they now know and understand that work does not need to sweat and be seen in the field, only by using PCs and cellphones today can make money so I don't bother to explain work that has sentiments towards the norms in the environment.

[darkangel11]

Is that really a problem for some of you? If they ask how you get money, just think of something. You can always say that you write homework for people, or tutor kids who want to pass exams...
You don't have explain what cryptocurrency is and all that because it could lead to more questions and keep the focus of the family members on you for more than you'd want.
Be yourself, that's the most important thing and choose the path you want to follow. It's your life not the life of your parents.

[sulendra12]

It just depends on how well your parents could understand what you are saying in simplest terms possible. If you know what you are doing, then you can probably just fragment what you do and change it into simplest sentences to make them understand about what you do. I told them about what I'm doing most of the time in basic way and they can understand and let it slide without further questions.
