I think i already mentioned i have tried to sell things and just can't. My stuff won't sell. I seem to have some kind of jinx or curse or something around me thats preventing me from making any money. Would be really grateful if someone could remove it.
By the way if anyone is interested i have a racing saddle ive been trying to sell for about 7 or so years now. It just won't sell.

Sell your saddle for half of whatever you're asking. If no one is buying, it means either you're asking too much, or the quality isn't good enough to warrant someone's attention. That isn't a slight, but you're going to have to cut your prices. At one point, in an effort to lighten the load on my own financial situation, I sold 100 DVDs for $20. You're going to have to cut deep in some places.

If by looking outside my local area you mean moving to the land of opportunity, i.e. the US, then i would love to do that. If you mean anywhere else in the UK then its pointless. The work situation is the same everywhere. If you read any UK news site you will find tons of articles about how people here are better off on benefits than getting an actual job.
I can't relocate my horse. I would be worried that the stress of a move would kill her.

Don't be so eager to come here for economic salvation. We're in a bad situation here, and the likelihood of your finding a decent job isn't very good at the moment, and that's not factoring in travel and relocation costs.

Not to mention getting a work visa, etc.

Oh, Lord no. Just to name a few of the movies: "The 6th Day", "Fifth Element", "School of Rock", "Talladega Nights", "Twister", "Small Soldiers", "Minority Report", "Stardust", "The Truman Show", etc.

Not to mention getting a work visa, etc.

Yep. It's a touch of "the grass is always greener...". Contrary to popular belief, our streets aren't made of gold.
Shoot, at this point, we're lucky if they're made of asphalt.

Ain't that the truth. For every Andrew Carnegie, there are 100 immigrants who caught cholera or even the common cold and died in the streets. And another 100 immigrants who were stuck working in the factories or the railroad for the rest of their lives doing unskilled labor and their children would be stuck doing the same. I'm not hating on America, just stating facts. Moving to America would not grant you instant quality of life. Hell, I was born here and I don't see any of that.

Not to mention that coming here for a job in the current market would be fruitless unless you have rare skills and an employer lined up to sponsor you.

At least America still had factories back then!
