Aight' guys here's the deal. Was hanging on the block with my crew when this uppity *** ***** strolls into our territory like it's nothin'. Well I couldn't let it go so we had to lay him out. Find out later that that he's someone important with connections in the russian mob. Now I need a cool million to get this settled or my head has a price on it. Tell me how to make some extra money yo'

I tried eBay for a whiles too, between the eBay listing fees, closing fees, paypals fees, there was almost no profit left. On top of that, had to deal with NPB, which was a hassle.

Now I am trying out to be a landlord, the only thing that I can do without giving up the day job.

aside from my status as a student, i work in the summertime and play online poker when i get the chance. an idea i always had was to work a graveyard shift somewhere, it seems like it would be an interesting job to have and the pay is pretty good.

I consider managing my credit card deals and balance transfers a part time job. I save $425 a month in HELOC interest, make $60 in interest and another $100 or so in rebates. But I do spend a lot of time managing juggling the payments for 10-15 accounts and $100K-$150K in balances, making sure everything is paid on time, looking for new deals etc. But I kind of enjoy it anyway, so why not.

I am a full time graduate student and work full time, and was thinking about getting some 0% CC deals and putting the money into ING and getting a couple hundred in interest a month, but figured having 50k or so in my ING account would have a negative impact on my possibility for studnet loans, thought the bad would outweigh the good ya know, so I opted to stay poor

Outside of my day job, I do a number of things:

1) I used to be pretty hardcore on eBay. Sort of gave up after a while, but still dabble a little.
2) I have 3 websites, 1 of which is currently making about $75/month in advertising and $100/month in sales (the others make a few bucks/month, I just keep them for hobby).
3) I'm starting to get into the money-juggling game (ING, etc.) now that I'm finally starting to make more than I spend and have real money to play with.


How does one get started in e-commerce and websites that make money by advertising? What kind of sites do you run?

I just started e-bay w/2 of my friends. They've been selling bodykits for cars for a while, they just recruited me because they've become frustrated with all the e-mails and full time jobs on the side. We average about $2000 net profit per month.

I notice 1000's claiming they make $$$$ or a living from online poker.

I never saw one post saying "I lose my shirt every week playing online poker"

I think the Poker sites are hiring shills to post.

Work on the weekends, full time college student. To make extra money:

-half.com, selling text books (huge market out there). Last year, finished an environmental science class online, sold my book for $75 on half.com (barely used the thing). Then was looking at the scools local website for books for sale, and saw another student with the exact book for $25!!! I got in contact, we met up, I gave her the $25, and she handed me the book. Got home, listed it on hlaf.com, and had it sold in less than a week for $80!!! (they do take comission, but there is no listing fee, or time duration). My brother sold some old CDs on half.com, and brought in about $50-$70.

- Saw an aritcle in my universitie's paper about plasma donation. $20 (or $30 with flyer) for first time donation, but takes 3 hours (test and stuff to make sure you can donate). After that, $20 for each donation, and you can do it every week or so (maybe twice a week), and get $20, takes about 45 minutes for each donation after the initial one. Not bad at all, $20 for an hour of your time (pays more than my work job). Thinking about doing it, but VERY busy right now with mid-terms and projects coming up. Where to find 3 hours in my schedule, dunno.

- being cheap, cutting coupons, and finding good deals. Saving money in ING and ED, and one day find a 0% BT and put the money into ING (need to pay off my credit card to make my score nicer).
