You could try Amazon Turk as a side-job. In a few hours you could make 5 to 10 dollars or more..
It wouldn't serve as a main source of income, but at least you'll have money to spend on commodities that you won't have to take out of whatever actual main source you find.
Tip: If you try this, when searching for HITs, only look for 5-cent HITS or above, and don't bother with $5 stuff, which no one ever gets.

- PostOnce 17y agoHN needs the ability to rescind an accidental misvote for at least a few minutes after a post, doesn't it? I've done that before as well.
- volomike 17y agoI wouldn't wish Turk on anyone unless their currency level is very low compared to the USD or other stronger Western currencies. I mean, spending several hours just to make anywhere from $5 to $10 -- that's not worth my time and there are faster ways to earn a buck online. Besides, for anyone, I would recommend they get a relatively easy regular day job, such as paper-pusher or something -- anything where they work 8 hours exactly, never get asked to stay late, and can go home. Then, at night, work very hard for two years on passive income niche forums and blogs, small scripts, products, and eBooks. Once that builds up steadily, quit the day job and do online freelance work whether that be for PPC Management, SEO Management, programming, whatever. Mix the two -- active and passive income -- such that you can live a comfortable life. Then, use the Dave Ramsey Snowball method to pay down debts as fast as possible. Then move into site flipping, then small-time angel investment of websites and products in your interest, and eventually full-time angel investment work.
