Ok now i can hear some negative feedback on this already, but I really nee to get my finances in order, recently I lost my job now IM looking for a way to gain some income while still being able to pay my mtg. Just wondering if anyone knows if you can be a bird dog and avoid losing your unemployment? Hopefully i can get some advice.

    As a bird dogger, you will be considered "self-employed" and you may lose your unemployment. I have not been in the situation before, so I would not really know the correct answer. You can ask a CPA, they may be able to answer it correctly.

    Sometimes, you can still have a part time job and earn some extra income to make up for the gap with unemployment insurance. You should call and find out but don't tell them you have a job. Just ask if you were to get a part time job for some extra cash, would that be ok?

    Here's the number:609-292-7162. You can actually get a real person believe it or not.

    Let us know how you make out.

    Lots a luck...
