Creative ways of earning money

Posted: 8/15/05 at 10:51pm

I'm working on getting a job, but until then I'm having to use the little resources I have to scrounge up cash...

So far I've got...

online garage sale

and

taking pictures (it really is a better idea than it sounds)

What are some things you've done?

That may or may not work for you, but just throwing that out there.

There's always the old standby of babysitting. I've also TAed at a local private school during breaks from college, and when I'm on campus I have 2 jobs as well. Try applying for work with a temp agency- you'll probably get boring stuff like filing, but it's money.

What about working in your local library? Its airconditioned, you just stock books or answer phones or something. You can go on BWW probably if you're just sitting at a desk .

And the other thing about the Phantom Lady was, Bert, she realized, in the city that never sleeps... What did she realize, Kitten? That all the songs she'd listened to, all the love songs, that they were only songs. What's wrong with that? Nothing, if you don't believe in them. But she did, you see. She believed in enchanted evenings, and she believed that a small cloud passed overhead and cried down on a flower bed, and she even believed there was breakfast to be had... Where? On Pluto. The mysterious, icy wastes of Pluto.

GirlforTartaglia, there's a reason our local library always has way too many applications. :P

Walk around your local mall; there'll probably be at least one store with a "Help Wanted" sign up.

Better yet, sell your eggs. There's lots more of them.

Or you could be a Mary Kay lady.

You could be a camp counseler or work at a retail store. If you can draw, you can draw things on shirts and sell them.

Good Luck.

Hmm.. Di2, I'm not sure what to think about that, your name, I mean.

About the creative money, I think Chuck has a great thing going with that jeans idea.

My friend Cait takes pictures of houses for real estate companies and makes big bucks. If you're good at taking pictures, that might be an idea.
