How do I make extra money?
Permalink Closed

Here's my situation - I have a really great, full-time job and I make plenty of money - for myself.  But I live w/my boyfriend and he's been going through a tough time and he's currently going to school full-time so he doesn't have much time to work.  So his mom helps him out, but we hate to ask her all the time, so I help him out sometimes too.  We split all the bills, but sometimes I have to lend him some money for spending/daily expenses.  I don't mind at all, I would do anything for him and know he'd do this for me too.


I always made enough money to take care of myself and be comfortable, but now I'm starting to feel the impact.  I put in some overtime at work to make even more on my paychecks, but it's becoming hard.  On top of that, I'm trying to save some $$ and pay on credit cards.  It's hard to do all of this.  In Oct, he'll be done w/school and have a job, but until then, I'm wondering if there's any way to make extra money.  I really don't have time for a 2nd job.  I know this is a long shot, but can anyone help me??

well, you could sell things on ebay. it might take some initial investment, but it's easy to work from home and make money this way.

I've really considered this, but here's my problem - I don't own a digital camera.  I know, I live in the stone age, but if I can't post pics of my items, how can I see anything?

I thought of an idea today - I could possibly charge money to type papers for college students.  But...can anyone help me - where do I sollicit my service or find people interested?  Also, does anyone know what I could charge, or how I would get the person's paper they need typed?!  Thanks.

Well if I recall you said you live in Lakeview right? Maybe posting up a sign somewhere on DePauls's campus? I'm sure they have a student center where you can put something up on a board. It's a start at least.

What do you mean type them? Like write them? Or just physically type them?  I think most people type their papers right away (as opposed to handwriting them).

Disregard the typing thing...I'm actually interested in selling on Ebay.  If anyone on here does it, please PM me - I need more info.
