Many Jamaicans living in Jamaicans take for granted the money that Jamaicans abroad send to them via remittance. What they have to do is go to the bank, Western Union or The Foreign Exchange to get their cash that was sent from family abroad.

They don’t know and they don’t realize that most Jamaican living and working in America have to


work very hard in order send money to them. The sad part of this is that many people who receive this hard earned money takes thing for granted. Many people who get the money squander this money and then turn around and asked for more.

Most Jamaica living abroad has to work very hard in order to send monetary help to Jamaica and to maintain a decent lifestyle in America.

Most Jamaican work more than one job and because of their working practice many comedians and artist have made fun and sing songs about Jamaicans and their many jobs. Therefore it is a known fact here in America that Jamaicans are very hard workers who will go above and beyond to help their families back home. Therefore it is only fair for people in Jamaica to do something worthwhile with that money instead of squandering it.

They need to do a business, go back to school, learn a trade or do some farming instead of partying every day and night, getting long fingernails and big hair do with someone else’s money. This is hard earned money it was not picked up off the streets, as we once believe
