article: . If you already have some extra cash on hand, you can earn even more by lending it out and charging interest on your loans. There are many companies, the largest of which are Prosper and Lending Club, that match prospective lenders with prospective borrowers. Although the industry has been shifting away from private investors, there are still opportunities to be had. If you wish to become a money lender, be sure to abide by any and all applicable laws in your area. Instead of letting the money you have languish in checking account (or under your mattress), put it into an interest-earning account, like a money-market account, a certificate of deposit (CD) account, or a 401k. These types of accounts pay a higher rate of interest than normal savings accounts. Ask a professional at your local bank for help placing money in these types of accounts. Note that these types of accounts may require a minimum balance to start generating interest. They also may require a long-term investment, during which time you will not be able to access your money without paying a penalty. One way to make money without working is to play the stock market to your advantage. Stock trading is by no means risk-free, but if you're smart, careful, and a little lucky, you can stand to make lots of money on the stock market. Whatever investments you choose to make, never invest any money in the stock market that you can't stand to lose.  Low-cost e-trading platforms are ideal for investors who don't want to pay to have their investments managed for them. There are tons of different investment strategies out there, so do your research and find one that works for you. No matter what your strategy, it's important to keep a diverse portfolio and stay up-to-date with changes that happen in the market. . Investing in a successful business is a surefire way to become wealthy, although finding such a company is more challenging. If you are lucky enough to find a business that you really believe in, make sure to do your research before investing.  It's very important that you have faith in the leadership of the company. Even if the concept is great, a bad CEO can destroy the business. You should have a very good understanding of the company's expenses and potential profits, as well as of their brand and image, before you invest. Make sure there is a clear contract that outlines your rights. You should also understand what your options are for exiting the agreement. Don't invest all of your money in one business. If it goes south, you could be left with nothing. . "House flipping" refers to the process of buying cheap, run-down property, increasing its value (either by adding improvements or simply by waiting for the market to perk up), and then re-selling it for a profit. With smart choices and practical know-how with regards to home repair, you can stand to make  thousands of dollars per flip, although unexpected expenses and a bad real estate market can leave you in the red.  Make sure you really understand the local market before investing in real estate, or you may lose money when you try to sell. Unless you have enough money to hire contractors to do all of the work for you, flipping real estate will require a tremendous amount of work. Even if you do hire others, you will likely need to supervise them. If you don't have the money to invest in real estate, there are lots of other things you can flip, including furniture and cars. Anything you can buy cheap, fix up yourself, and sell for a profit, can be flipped.

article: . Oftentimes, addiction is the culprit if someone is stealing your medication. Your family member may have an addiction to prescription pain medication. If this is the case, spend some time learning about addiction. This will help you foster empathy and best address the situation.  Read about addiction online. There are many resources you can use, such as Narcotics Anonymous, that provide information about what addiction is. Try to remember addiction is a medical condition and your family member cannot help being drawn to the substance. If you're currently seeing a therapist, you could try asking your therapist for more information about addiction and talk over confronting the family member with them. Remember, while addiction is one possible reason your family member took your medication, it is not the only explanation. A family member may also be stealing to sell the drugs for money. If you find your family member does not display symptoms of addiction, look for another explanation. You may even want to connect with a local rehabilitation center to talk with a drug counselor about your situation and get some advice about how best to proceed. You do not need to write out what you're going to say word for word. However, it can be helpful to have a rough idea of what you want to express going into the conversation.  Jot down your feelings for a few minutes. Pull out a few phrases that best convey your feelings and concerns. You can have these in the back of your mind going into the conversation. You do not need to write down an entire script for yourself. In fact, doing so can make the conversation worse. You may sound disconnected when speaking to your family member, which is not something you want during a hard conversation. It's vital you talk to your family member at the right time. A poorly planned confrontation can give your family member a chance to evade or escape the conversation.  As this is a sensitive subject, choose a place that's private. You can try confronting the family member when they're at your house, for example, or go to their place to talk. Make sure there are no external constraints. You do not want to begin the conversation only to have your family member run to work. Choose a time when they're not distracted and will be more receptive to your words. You do not know how your family member will react. Trying to predict as much can affect how you approach the conversation. If you, for example, expect a bad reaction, you may come into the conversation angry or overly confrontational. Try to approach the conversation without any particular expectation about what will occur.  Remember, no matter how well you know someone, you can never entirely predict their reactions. This is especially true with difficult issues. There is no way to predict the future or someone's behavior. Therefore, go into the conversation reminding yourself you do not know what is going to occur.

article:
You should never jump into a strenuous workout without a warm up. This will greatly increase your risk of a muscle cramp. To prevent cramps, do a light warm up before engaging in a full workout.  Warming up means engaging in light physical activity for five to 10 minutes before you begin a vigorous workout. Warm up activities are usually slower versions of your main form of exercise. To warm up for a run, for example, walk briskly for five minutes. Before aerobic activities, such as running, make sure to give your calves a good stretch. This can reduce the risk of cramping in this area.  Place one leg in front of another and then lean against a wall. Bend the knee of your leg closer to the wall. While you do this, stretch your back leg behind you and point the heel towards the floor. Hold this stretch for at least 20 seconds. Any less than 20 seconds will not be enough time for your calf muscles to stretch out. Repeat with the other leg. You should also stretch your hamstrings if you do any exercises that use those muscles. To start, sit on the ground with your back straight and stretch both legs out in front of you.  Place your hands on the floor with the palms facing downward. Slide your hands forward until you feel a stretch. Then, hold this for 30 seconds. Your quads should be stretched before any workout that uses them. To start, stand next to a wall or chair and hold onto it for balance.  Lift up one foot, moving your heel towards your buttocks, and then grab your heel with your hand. Hold this position for 30 seconds. Then, repeat with the other leg. After a workout, you should have a period where you cool down before stopping. A cool down involves engaging in slightly less strenuous exercise for five to 10 minutes. It's essentially the same as warming up, but you do it after finishing a workout. For example, you can walk for 10 minutes after a run or do some slow swimming for five minutes after an intense swim. It can be very dangerous to swim if you're at risk for a muscle cramp. Therefore, you should avoid swimming, especially in large bodies of water like the ocean, until your muscle cramps are infrequent. If you're having severe cramps with no apparent cause, talk to your doctor before you attempt swimming.
