I just need $ 20k to pay my abroad degree and independent-life
PS: Please, tell me something I didn't thought yet
- paulhauggis 14y agoBuy and sell things online. It's the simplest way to make money and you don't need a degree. You just need to do some research to figure out what will sell. It won't be easy..but making money usually isn't.
- thekillerdev 14y agoWould you have any example of this, working out? * I mean, you buy something on amazon, sell on ebay? * How much you increase in the price?
- autophil 14y agoBe a due process server and deliver court documents to respondents. Everyone is suing or getting divorced nowadays, so the demand is there. Heck, you don't even need a car. I started the business in an afternoon and made deliveries on my bike. Other deliveries I had someone else do (gave him half - I did nothing but take the order and pass it off to him). Get a simple three page website and some business cards made up and you will make your 20G. One bit of advice: Get paid in advance, every time. Even if it's a legal firm. ESPECIALLY if it's a legal firm.
- armenarmen 14y agoGreat suggestion! What would the typical fee for this be?
- autophil 14y agoIt varies. Check your competition.
- writeclick 14y agoIf you hone your design skills enough, and you get to know WordPress development, you could create premium themes and then sell them on Themeforest.net. Some of their top sellers are making $10K+ per month.

- verganileonardo 14y agoYou can write ebooks and record videos on the subjects you have knowledge! Sell them on your website and marketplaces.

- hodder 14y agoWalking dogs is a surprisingly lucrative gig if you can fit that in your schedule. Seriously, one group walk a day at 20-25 a dog could be your solution.
