How many jobs is too many jobs?
As I write this, I am on vacation. And I’m not just working for GRS while on my break. I’m posting on social media for six other clients, and writing freelance pieces for two other websites.
So when I say I am on vacation, I really mean that I am working in a house that is not my own, with a lovely view of a beach. Since being laid off from my traditional full time job three years ago, I have fashioned a working life that involves working for multiple entities, doing multiple tasks.

My most stable employer provides 25 hours a week (but it’s also the lowest paying). The rest range anywhere from 3 to 10 hours a week, depending on what’s happening and what’s needed. Some of the work is seasonal. Some clients pop up for a few hours’ work and then disappear for months.

How to save money on dental bills
According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, around 108 million Americans go without dental insurance during any given year. And since paying the full weight of dental care is often out of the question for those living on low incomes, many people simply choose to go without or get by with as few cleanings and check-ups as they possibly can.
However, if you do have out-of-pocket funds with which to pay, you already know how quickly cleanings, fillings, and basic dental care can take a bite out of your budget. After all, a typical dental filling can cost anywhere from $100 to $200, a cleaning can cost upwards of $200, braces can cost $5,000 to $6,000, and so on.
Obviously, one of the easiest ways to save on dental care is to have a dental insurance policy for your family. The bad news is, many employers don’t offer dental coverage to their employees, even at a cost, and the dental plans commonly sold on the open insurance market can be of questionable value.
