Last May my Laptop got busted, I got it repaired in a week then got busted again after several days, costing me a lot.

By July I got scammed by a Russian site which I was working on, never got the $328 they owed me.

It's sad to know you got scammed especially with that kind of amount. A lot of people likes to be successful at the expense of others. But, I am glad you are able to cope with your disappointment and failures. You are still motivated to work and trust clients. Good luck.

That's a tough series of misfortunes man. I feel for you. Is there a way for you to maybe name the site that did not pay you? So that others can avoid transactions with them? I don't know if that is allowed here though, if it is not then that is okay. We'll just be extra careful from now on. Thanks.

Be careful when working with websites that offer a big amount of potential income. Look for reviews of the website if it is really paying or if it has some issues before starting to work. It's really disappointing that after you've worked so hard, you only end up with nothing.

You are right. For us not to experience being scammed we look for reviews of the website. We should not easily throw our hard earned money away.

Reading reviews is like the best bet not from Google even,read it from forums that's where we can get very authentic reviews not those paid reviews some sites pay people to write and upload on Google. It can even be depressing having to work without pay.

There are so many bad things that happened to me this year. It's not really a happy year for me but I'm still positive for the coming year. I'm still grateful and positive that there is still a good future waiting for me. Hoping for the best this 2019. Problems are part of life so I'm just letting things go and leave it all to God.

Bad things happened this year: Yes I also experienced bad things this year but If I compare it to the good things that I've experienced this year those bad things is no match to the rate of good things. I always look for the good things rather to the bad things that came into my life because I have a mind set that everything happens for a purpose and I can overcome it all by God's grace.

I'd like to think that bad things is always a part of our life. Thou, it hurts but we need to accept reality. It also teaches us the moral values in life. We get to appreciate and learn from it. Had it not with it, we will not be courageous and strong to face our trials. Life would also be boring. Failures and happiness is what makes our life worth living. In spite of the negative things I just want to see the positive side of it. Keeping my faith and believe that everything will be fine in God's guidance.

January, my whole family got in an accident. They all came out fine but the car was totalled. I don't really count that as a bad thing though because everyone was fine and that's what's most important. This year was quite good to me as l didn't experience anything bad that was life-changing.

I think I had also some bad days during this year which feels me to be disappointed and frustrated at some point, which is something that is inevitable. I remember being scammed for a few times on some freelancing sites that I have worked before, I give my time, knowledge and patience in working from a particular site but lately it will just scam me which I really don't expect to happen but then I have no choice but to accept my faith and just move on.

This year and the latter part of 2017 was actually the hardest. My brother got into an accident and my mother was diagnosed with Cancer. Anyway, I won't share the details of it, but it really was a hard time for us. But, thankfully, my mother and my brother are both recovering well.

This year was hard since I got really sick and am still recovering and on treatment. However, I'm grateful for having a new chance to live, also I've become more aware of what's important and what I should focus on. I think this has been a very important lesson for me and a signal as well.

I don't really like labeling certain events as "bad things", since I try to look at them in a positive light. Instead, I think of them as obstacles. After all, though they might not have turned out with the most ideal outcomes, these events have taught me a thing or two about life. This 2018, there weren't many major obstacles that I found difficult, but the most challenging one would be stepping up as the president of my organization. It was much more stressful than I imagined, but so far I'm surviving.

Everything happens for a reason. God allow things to happen in our lives because He has a purpose. A lot of wonderful things happened to me this year. However, there are also some things that we can consider bad things or set backs. This year, my ex girlfriend was married to her new boyfriend after me. I was hurt because after three years I am still hoping and praying that God would give us another chance. On the other hand, I am also happy that she had already found that someone that can make her truly happy. She really deserves to be happy.

My mother suffered from a mild stroke, was hospitalized for one week, and was not able to walk when we checked her out from the hospital. It was a scary experience for me, seeing how my mother suffered while she is in the hospital. She couldn't eat while. She couldn't even sit by herself. But because of God's grace, my mother totally recovered and his body is back to normal again. It took more than one month before she was able to walk again.

This year has been great for me! However, one bad thing happened. I broke my finger on right arm while playing football. It was so painful that I screamed. Now, I have recovered but it still hurts a little bit and I do not why is that the case. Maybe the doctors did something bad, I do not know.

This year was no different from other years as far as “family drama” is concerned. It continues just like the world turns. As for my work-at-home projects (forums, blogging, freelance writing, affiliate marketing, cryptocurrency adventures, etc.), 2018 was a really good year! Looking forward to 2019.

Well, I'm going to add on to my comments here. I don't mean to get political but I feel so badly about this that I feel compelled to mention it. I don't any responses from anybody. I just want to say it and get it off my chest,

Our government had a partial shut down because the president couldn't get money for a border wall he wants to build. That's not the bad news. The bad news is that people set up a GoFundMe to BUILD A WALL!! So far over $17 million has been raised. "This fundraiser is GoFundMe's 2nd largest ever (USD), reaching that status on the 4th day of the campaign. It was created to facilitate the construction of a wall at the U.S.-Mexico border to improve security." Quote source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GoFundMe

I don't care what anybody else says.
This goes down in my book under "Bad Things That Happened in 2018".

Hmmm... bad things as in things that happened in my freelance career or just bad things that happened in general? Well, my freelance career is going pretty well I will say. I launched a new blog for top 10 lists in a very unsaturated niche - so that is a good thing. The only bad thing about that is that I need article writers willing to write 1000 word articles for about $5 (all i can afford at this time especially with the holiday season).

Another bad thing that has potentially occurred was an overwhelmingly backlog of support tickets that I am still trying to reply to. Again, because of the holiday season and being so busy I can barely keep up with my own helpdesk at this point.

In general life, I just got over being sick with either a cold or the flu. I think it was flu as the sickness was awful. Had to take a day off work because of it, so there's that. Yay for cold and flu season.. not!

I lost both my grandparents in the past year, it was very surprising and a somber reminder that everyone in my family is getting older. While I'm happy that their suffering is over - both of them were terminally ill - I still miss their presence greatly as they were my biggest cheerleaders and were so proud of the successes I have had in life.

Aside from knowing my ex girlfriend got married this year and now she was already pregnant, another test in me is that my youngest brother was diagnose with a Cyst in his stomach last quarter of this year. We still need some laboratory test including a CT scan to know if that Cyst was cancerous or not. We're still praying for miracles.

One bad thing that happened to me this year was when, at school, while we were having our title proposal for our Research subject, my stomach began to jumble and I suddenly needed to go to the bathroom. It was very embarrassing, having to excuse myself while our proposal was still on-going. I quickly defecated in our school comfort room and, despite my shame, I went back to our yet to be finished title proposal. I don't want things like that to happen again so I'm going to make sure that I defecate at home before going to school.

There are a lot of bad things that happened this year. But one that's affected me the most is the family problem that came up. Though I'm not that close with my family, they're the only stable thing that I have. Having my family become an unstable mess was too hard for me to handle. Hopefully things are much better for us next year.

I have relative who passed away this year 2018 due to sickness which is something that really feels me bad at the moment. I am not expecting that he will die this year since he was fighting with his life and I thought that his condition was slowly going better but in an instant he died which is something that really saddened us. It really feels bad to lost a love one which you really like the most but then we have no control over our faith since only god knows on when we will die.

I had a whole rant planned. But after reading some of the stories here, I've heard a pretty good year. I think we all tend to forget what is important in life and worry about the most insignificant things. We stress about what to eat or what to wear or having no money yet the most important thing in life is having your health and your life, anything else is not important in my opinion.

We all have those different bad days when it comes to our friends or family. My only bad day happened this year is that me and my girlfriend broke up. It was about April this year but then I am already moved on and we are good friends right now. I don't have any bad things happened to my friends and family and we are always happy and there is a lot of additional family members and friends that came to my life this year.

Lot of good and bad things happened this year. I had feet injury this year this month. And also some of the clients lost this year. I hope to see changes with the earning systems next year. And hopefully there are some other options for me open next year. I am going to work hard though. Let's see where that lands me in near future. Bad things happen but its always the time we have to move away from that.

There were many things that happened this year which I may not like and expect. People may view those as bad things or experiences. On my part, I view those undesirable situations as prayer and faith boosters. For instance, this year seems to be the worst time with my daughter. She has become more disobedient and disrespectful. I dealt it with more prayers and more trust in the Lord. This year, two cousins died, one was diagnosed with cancer, an aunt died, my husband was diagnosed with delusion. and I had two-moth bleeding. I was not able to control those realities of life. I simply prayed and gave due financial and emotional help.

There are bad things, all right, but I have thrown them all out to the wind. What I want to remember for this year are the good things that came my way like the raise that I got from our office. That $200 a month increase in my salary is worth the long service that I gave to our company. That is the perks of having a job with a fixed income that when a raise is given it is big deal and very gratifying.

Well 2018 has been a mixed bag for me. There were some very good things that happened in my professional life and there were some problems that I faced in my personal life. However , I was able to overcome all the problems eventually. It helps to have a very supportive friend circle and family. Overall I would say that the positive things outweighed the negative things that happened this year. All that matters is that I am feeling great right now and looking forward to the next year with lots of optimism.

It is true that life won't be life is all that happened to us was pleasant. It is also true that this is a fact of life and to be happy we must accept this truth. It is equally true as well, that accepting the bad things that have happened to us and focusing on the good things is a great way to live a fulfilling life.

I tried thinking and thinking but honestly, I couldn't remember what are the bad things that happened. I have a really selective memory, I can force my mind to forget bad things so I'm not sure if nothing bad happened or I just forgot! I really don't know if that's a bad thing or good thing but I think it's better to focus on the good things in life rather than to dwell on the bad things that happened. It may be hard but remember, God only gives us problems when He knows that we can get through it.

I think that getting a light form of depression was the worst, and I almost lost a job because I wasn't productive at all. But then I learned what is cbg and started taking this supplement, it helped me normalize my mood, more or less, and I was able to go to a doctor and get a proper treatment, so now I'm almost fine.
