Money Making Schemes

What are some good websites online where you can make money for free by taking surveys?

I recently got an allowance of $10.00 a week, but I want money much faster than that because I want to save up for a playstation portable core (psp 1000) on amazon selling for $400.00. I’m talking about a website that pays you to take surveys. All the other ones I’ve tried are scams, but I need to know some websites that you can make money just by answering questions. Thanks.

Where can I read books for free online?

Hi. I’m trying to find a site where I can read books for free online. I don’t care if you have to download them as long as there’s no viruses.

Please don’t tell me that I should buy the books because the writers need to make money and all of that other stuff. I do buy books, but I read them very fast so its wasting my $20.

So…does anyone know any sites?

are there any animal games that are fun, free, online, and have quick growing animals?

Besides creature breeder, foopets, howrse, or any of those other general sites that take a long time for your pet/animal to grow or you have to pay money for. I want a game where you can breed for free and have your pet fast.
Thx!

How / where can I find a LEGITIMATE job opportunity to work from home? So many are scams or pyramid schemes?

I live in a rural area of Pennsylvania, & enjoy using the computer, writing, organizing, & taking care of pets. I do not want to be involved in a pyramid scheme or get ripped off, but I am willing to work hard, for a legitimate business that does not charge up-front fees to get started.

What is a pyramid scheme and why is it illegal?

so for example a person tells you to buy a product online and get as many people you know
you get a percentage is that the case? thats what i have been told but wouldnt that be considered as a commission
ohh and how is MLM different ? i need examples lol 🙂
ok a person wont lose their money as long as they recruit people so how does this scheme fail

How can I make fast money to pay of debt and buy my wife a wedding ring?

Or if someone can loan me some money and I will pay you back? I know it sounds kind of silly, but I want my wife to be happy this year for Christmas. Whether it take a few years or months if someone is out there willing to help please let me know.

Well paying but flexible jobs for college students?

I am 19 going on 20 and I live in Tampa, FL. I am a college student and I just recently got my own apartment. I pay for my own utilities and rent as well as gas for my car, laundry services and groceries. Plus I am looking for money to save up for the future and for current necessities like furniture for my apartment. I don’t have a room-mate to share the bills with so I am looking for a job where I can earn AT LEAST about 1500-1700 dollars a month or more. I only attend classes 3 days a week and I’m free most weekends (or at least I’m willing to free up my weekends if it means earning some cash instead of spending it). Of course flexibility is always convenient but seeing as I have weekends free I don’t think I will encounter a challenge in that area. I’m looking for a job that is close to downtown, where I can earn a good salary. The only thing is I don’t have much “on-the-books” experience. I worked at my parents family owned restaurant business from the time I was big enough to stack the bottom 4 shelves to the time I was 16. I was a nanny/babysitter for a year when I was 17-18. I was a server at TGI Fridays for 7 months and I served at a country club for one month between ages 18 and 19 until I moved to Tampa to transfer schools. I am majoring in elementary education but I don’t necessarily ONLY need a job working with kids. I am a people person. I do love serving/waitressing but I need to work at a place that pays very well and is not picky about experience, which is not the usual combination. Anyone know of any jobs that would be good for me? I heard that Starbucks has great benefits but how can I apply and make sure I have a better chance of getting hired if they don’t see me face (since applications are all online)… that goes for other online apps too. I just need to get a well paying job soon and fast. And for all the smarty pants out there, please don’t say stripper (or anything like it) just because there’s so many strip clubs in Tampa -___- **ALSO I love art! anyone maybe think of any creative ways to make money like crafts, baking or selling something, entrepreneurial style? 😉
Thanks James that’s SUCH a good idea! McDonald’s would definitely pay the bills. Thanks for being so helpful. Your sarcasm is greatly appreciated!

How do I save money?

My husband left me and my 4 month old about 2 months ago (we live in Texas) to work in the Hurricane Damage in New Orleans. The main reason he decided to go was becasue he more that quadrupled our income by going down there. (He’s now making roughly 4,000 dollars a month compared to the 1k a month (I’m not kidding) we were making). I’m a college student and SAHM by the way. Anyway, the hwole point of him working there was for us to have a new start, buy a house etc, but we can’t seem to save ANYTHING. The money goes SOOO fast between me going there to visit him, him coming here, and living expenses for both of us plus we are honestly blowing a LOT of money (not necessarily blowing, i mean we’re buying clothes for our daughter, new carseat, new crib, clothes for us, TONS of videos (that’s our hobby since neither of us drink or smoke). We really cant help it, we are so used to NOT having any money, its hard to not be spending. ANyone have any suggestions, I honestly want him home already

19 year old dates guys 30-50 yrs. old for MONEY?

My friend we are college students. She hooks up with older guys like 30-50 years old. She tries to talk me into doing it but I am not dumb and I feel that its wrong for her to be using these guys for their money. I also tell her that these guys are just as crazy to be involved with a girl her age because she is just 19 years old. I think these guys are creeps and are dumb and will talk to any woman regardless of their age just for sex. I got sooo upset at her because she literally has a answer for everything. She thinks what she is doing is okay and their is no harm in it. Ofcourse these guys are looking for sex and will give her money and gifts to buy her love but so far she hasn’t gave them sex so this is her little strategy. She leads them on while they are giving her all these things then dump them before they ask for sex. So she feels like as long as she is not sleeping with them everything is okay. I get mentally tied up because since she has an answer for all that she is doing wrong its almost as if I can’t be the one to stop her until she realizes its just simply morally wrong to be using people for their money. I called her an Idiot and told her she is an A**. Once she met this guy not even a week later she was in his pool at his house swimming with her friend. They guy had a daughter the same age as her, I found that so disgusting. He brought her some expensive diamond earrings. And now she says he’ll be asking for sex soon, so she is preparing to dump. Long Story Short. She feels that she don’t need to find a job because she can make money faster from them than working. Like i said she has an answer for everything…. So i want to know from you, whats your advice??? she is sitting here next to me, i am telling her stop this lifestyle. And she wants to continue. Plz give some HARDCORE ADVICE. Let her know that this is not the right way. or am i WRONG?

How to eat healthy at Boars Head Deli.?

At my university, we are required to buy an allotment of money that can be spent on fast food places such as the on campus chick-fil-e, burger king, java city, ect.. but we also have this new place called Boars Head Deli that makes sandwiches.

I want to be healthy in addition to not gaining weight like many college students do, so is there any way to utlitize this sandwich making place without calorie bombing myself? I asked for a nutritional chart but they could not provide one and I’m being given the run around by trying to find one online

Thank you!

How can someone out of this country send me money?

Is there a way she can send me money fast or online?

How do you really make money online?

If people really can make money online, than why hasn’t all the unemployed and disabled people done it? Simple.. Because it takes a heck of alot of money to start any business, and scammers love to trick those who have a penny into giving it to them.. Any one else have another idea?
Ok, everything so far has been a chain link or surveys. Surveys that just put you in for possible wins don’t pay nothing, it just allows people to know more about me and they call non stop. Not cool.

Why do people keep thinking Global Warming is real no matter how many facts they get?

Global warming is actually fake. I have done a LOT of research for my iSearch at school. My topic is Scalar energy. Scalar Energy is a energy that can changa the weather, do mind control, create fresh water, cure diseases like cancer and aids, create unstoppable weapons, and do much MUCH more. I still can’t believe Katrina was made by the goverment! Scalar Energy is not a conspiracy theory and has been scientifically proven. Many scientists are just afraid of reprisal. Any way “global warming” is just another money making scheme. People keep fallin for it like buying solar panels. Saying Global warming is real is like saying the Earth is flat and we will accidently drive off the edge. With scalar energy they can refreeze the ice caps since they made them melt in the first place!

Starting the Baldrige program in the fall?

Is it as bad as I’ve heard?

Let’s get real here, folks. Anything good come of this or is it just another money making scheme by a company with a new wonderful program? See today’s article in the NY Times on this very issue. Feedback or your thoughts?

Isn’t it time religions and churches are taxed again?

These monstrous mega-churches are nothing but money making schemes and the American citizens are losing out on $$millions by not properly taxing them.

For pete’s sake this is the 21st century. Santa is not real.

Looking for a movie about an engaged man who goes to buy his “dream” car and it’s a sham?

This movie was probably made in the 80’s and he is engaged and goes to the city to buy his dream car, there is a beautiful saleswoman and she sits him down in the “option” room and he spends a ton of money on everything. He leaves with car and it falls apart a few miles down the road, he finds out that it was a money–making scheme and the saleswoman helps him get the real car he wanted and paid for. I think it ends with her dropping off the real car as he heads home to his fiance.

Is this “Leadership America” scholastic thing for real?

We received something in the mail today advising us that our son has been invited to attend a Leadership America conference over the summer. He is very smart and very outgoing and involved in school, but you never know if these things are just a money making scheme or if he was invited based on scholastic ability. Has anyone ever heard of this conference and or attended one?

Looking for a female singer for a small project?

I have posted before and decided to post again

I’m 15 years old from the UK and looking for a female singer. If anyone would be interested in singing about 10 tracks over time I’ve wrote the lyrics for. I use instrumental production music from online and write some lyrics for it. The music is mainly 80s style pop/dance sounding tracks. I could send the lyrics/music to you, you could record the vocals and send them back and i’ll mix the vocals with the music and send them back to you. Eventually there would an album of 10 tracks which would be something nice to have. This would be done online only. I’m not a professional musician by any means but this is just one of my hobbies. I don’t make money from this, I ain’t selling them, this is just a project for fun really. In the end I can make an album cover, booklet etc with the 10 tracks. I would prefer a singer who can work quickly as too many previous vocalists took too long over the first song. Thanks.

I almost got suckerd to play in a scam….do i go to the police?

I was chating with a guy(on yahoo chat) who was located in London but (he says) he is from CA. He wanted to know how much I made each month being that im a single mom and that right there caused me concern. I told him it was none of his concern but it was enough for me to get by with me and my kids. He wanted to know if I wanted to make more money and of course I said yea. He was telling me that I would work for him just filling out checks by putting peoples names on the checks/and money orders. And then I would send the checks out to these people located here in the states. Then I would get paid thru western union just for helping him out.

At that point, I told him that it sounds like a scam and if I were to recieve these checks I would go to the police first before filling out any of these checks to make sure that it was legal. He then quickly told me that I would just recieve the checks/money thru western union and I would send the money to these people that way. He then told me that he is with a finance company that is spread thruough Europe, UK, and Africa. His name is Johnson Smith. Heck he even gave me a pic too. But maybe that isnt so real, ya know?

So, im thinking that since I did not close this conversation box with this guy yet, I should just take my laptop to the cops and tell them what I was dealing with and this guy is possibly trying to recruit me as well as others to help in his scam…Do you think that that would be the thing to do or do ya think that the cops will just laugh at me for bringing this to their attention.
Yeah, i just called the police station and spoke with a female and she told me that there is nothing that they can do but just tell me not to talk to this guy anymore and that is that. I only wish it does not end here though. I wish I could go further and catch this guy before he strikes someone else, ya know? He is probably the source of the scam something like that. GRRRRRRR
ok, i was able to file a complaint thru ic3.gov. But I think I have to save this conversation or something from my yahoo chat….

Advice on purchasing a puppy. Should I avoid this transaction? (Border Collie – UK) PLEASE HELP?

I found a puppy I was interested in via the pets4homes website. At first I felt really positive about the find but since doing more research, I need further input on whether or not it is actually a REALLY bad idea to buy from this breeder.

The Ad was for a Blue tri-colour. I wanted a female and was told there was only one left. Apparently they had been hoping to keep one but were happy to wait until the next litter as this was only the mothers second and she had ‘a good few left in her’ I forget now which of us spoke first.
Apparently The parents and a grandparent can all be seen and are all both KC and ISDS registered. To my recollection, however, there was no mention of health screening or health in general beyond worming and pavo vaccinations. The lady I spoke to did not profess to be selling them for anything other than pets but was saying they would be good for agility etc.

When I first rang, I was asked, by the very well spoken lady that answered, whether I was interested in the border collies or the labradors. Upon telling her I wanted a BC, she asked if it was the black, red or blue ones I had been interested in. As I had been looking at the blues specifically, I stipulated this and we left the conversation on the understanding that she would email me some pictures of the female and her parents the next morning.

It is now the morning AFTER that and I am yet to receive them. I did give her a call yesterday afternoon, a few hours after they were due to be in my inbox but she had apparently had a friend over and not had chance to get on the computer yet. She said though, that she would go out in the next half an hour to take some pictures to put in an email so I could make a decision on whether or not I wanted to lay down a deposit to secure her. For one reason or another, that didn’t happen.

She wants £400 pounds in total (£350 for the other colours) and was asking for a deposit of £100 sent by cheque through the post. a deposit makes sense to an extent as I am based in the east riding of yorkshire while they are in Carlisle. She said she didn’t know whether I’d be able to just do a transfer of the money from my bank (not sure why)
my questions are:

1. Does the fact that she has so many puppies on offer mean that she could be running a farm despite the parents being able to be seen?

2. Could the fairly reasonable price be indicative of her trying to shift them quickly or is it just well known that you can’t really ask for more unless you can prove they are from champion bloodlines etc

3. Is it unsafe or unreasonable for her to request the deposit through cheque or is this fairly standard procedure?

4. Should I be suspicious that I have still not received my photo’s or am I worrying over nothing as she obviously has a lot of dogs on her hands?

5. If this IS a situation I should avoid, what’s the deal with the KC and ISDS reg? I thought the point of these organizations was that they don’t allow sub-standard dogs and breeders on their register?

6. Can dogs be K.C. reg but still be a bad idea and is it possible to fake the papers?
I forgot to mention that she also said that their grandma had ‘retired’ and wasn’t with them any more. Also, in the UK, KC stands for the Kennel Club and ISDS is the international sheep dog society xx
To Miss B, I was asking in the start to try and figure out whether or not this was a puppy farmer, the reason I was asking about blue’s in particular was because she had set aside a higher price for them as if they WERE a ‘rare’ colour. I don’t have any preference on the patters or shades on my dog but I wanted to collect together as much information as was possible.
You have aided me in this endeavor and for that I thank you. But your assumptions are neither warranted or welcome. Even if I had no idea what so ever what I was dealing with, I’d have to ask questionS… That’s plural.

Welcome to my Christmas + Hows yours?

Hey

I really cannot sleep at the moment and its Xmas tomorrow and i was wondering how this year is going to be for you guys and how you celebrate Christmas.

Here is my story:

Ok, well I’m 21 from the UK. Where i live there is no jobs at all, I’ve done a lot of voluntary work. My most recent was at a college near me for Children with Disabilities which ranged from mild Learning Difficulties to the more extreme Terrible Palsy. Because i don’t have a job, many assume I’m scum and not having a job is something I’m not proud of but the only job i can get is one which i cannot get too due to the public transport not running early enough so I’m stuck in some loop hole until something local comes up. At the moment, I have to have a car to get to work but i need to work to get a car. My last job was a few month back, I had to walk 5 miles to get to a destination then a 2 hour walk over hills (No roads/paths) to get to the actual job as where i worked was on the moors on the hills. Worked this job for around 2 month and i got paid around £30 for it in total and everyone who worked there was done over by this guy which the job center “told us about” then they laughed it off when i told them i got done over. I went to college but as i came out the crunch hit really hard and lots of companies closed and no one was taking on. It was difficult i guess but i knew people had it worse.

At home i live with my Dad and my Brother. My dad is now in his 50’s, has COPD (Life Threatening lung disease) hearing problems, 60 something % use of his leg and struggles to work and also has really bad depression which he will not leave the house. It was only last week i got him to finally go to the doctors after 3 years of persuading him. He is a great guy, he will give you his last penny and has worked since he was 15 until his work place closed down about 5 years ago. He now gets treated like dirt from the employment places.

The reason I’m putting this is because i don’t want people to jump to the guns quickly making assumptions. I’m not what you call a “Good Guy” but i guess i do my best and live my life for others.

My dads mother (My Granma) helps us when she can with money as our cupboards are pretty much always empty. Its horrible stuff really and i know a lot of you may relate to this.

Anyway, i never let things drag me down regardless of how low they have gone.. So i was in high spirits for Xmas. We have a small family who are not close so on Xmas day i Invited my little brother up who lives with my mom. My mom is at her boyfriends about 60 mile away so he was on his own although hes 19.

I give every penny to my dad for the bills and a little food just as my older brother does but this year, i decided I was going to order some food, maybe online.. a Turkey and cook a real Xmas dinner for my Dad and 2 of my brothers with the £50 a week i get from the benefit office (Which i am ashamed to say) and when i went to them, they told me because its Xmas they will be paying me on the 22nd of December due to not being open for Xmas.

On the 21st of December. I was looking for some recepies as I’m rather a good cook although it will be the first real dinner we’ve had so i wanted to make it special. I found some nice things and xmas was only 4 days away.

On the 22nd of December, I checked my account online and the money was not in. I decided I’d give it another day before contacting them just in case they made a mistake..

23rd of December comes and still nothing so i ring them, explain the situation.. what i was told by the staff at the Job Center about being paid early and they say i won’t be paid whilst the 3rd of January so i was completely gutted really. That was our Xmas over. I love the whole Xmas Spirit.. the Music, Coldness (weirdly enough) and even the Smell! but it was a real blow. We don’t normally have presents, when we was younger we did but since my parents split that went so i thought it would be nice to do the whole dinner thing for us 4.

This is my reality of Christmas this year and how the whole crunch has hit us. Its kind of awful but i know people have it just as bad. Anyway, good or bad, whats your Xmas going to be like this year? or are you in a similar situation to myself?

It would be nice to hear your story..

Just because mine hasn’t turned out as planned, still post your Xmas story for this or the past years.. It’ll be nice to read them and see how other people have, cope or even deal with it :p

Merry Christmas to you all! and have a wonderful new years!

If any of you are a little stressed out or fancy a chat.. just mail me and I’ll get back to you! I’ll be on here for a few hours 🙂

manwithaplancalleddan@yahoo.com

My name is not Dan by the way.. It was a moment of randomness 🙂 <3
Thanks 🙂 It'll work out someday for me. Who knows what fate has lined up (: but its nice to see people are good and doing nice tings. Happy Christmas to you! (:

Response from seller about a Craigslist ad for football tickets – is this a scam?!?

I responded to a seller’s ad on craigslist for some football tickets who was selling them (for what he said) at face value and he e-mailed this response back to me:

“Hi,

Thank you for your interest in my tickets.

Up for sale are (4) side by side tickets for $300 ($75 EACH) , including shipping.

YOU ARE GUARANTEED TO GET YOUR TICKETS ON TIME OR YOUR MONEY BACK!

I only ask for a quick payment so I can get you the tickets as quickly as possible.

I have recently moved to London, UK with work and I will miss the games. I’m not a broker I’m very well paid here and I’m not looking to make extra money using these tickets.We will use Buyer Protection to handle this transaction as they act like a 3rd party, just like Escrow.
Here is how Buyer Protection works:
1. Buyer and seller agree on the transaction terms and price.
2. Seller contacts Buyer Protection Center with the transaction details.
3. Buyer receives the transaction details and payment instructions from Buyer Protection Center by email.
4. Buyer deposits the payment to eBay agent and sends the payment details to Buyer Protection Center.
5. eBay center verifies payment from buyer and then will notify the seller to proceed with the shipping.
6. Buyer receives the tickets and has 3 days to inspect them. After the inspection period is over, the buyer must contact Buyer Protection Center with the result of the inspection. If the buyer refuses the tickets, the money is refunded to the buyer after the tracking number for the returning shipment is verified.
7. If the buyer keeps the tickets he must notify Buyer Protection Center to pay seller with the amount of money.
VERY IMPORTANT: After you send the money to the ebay agent he will deposit them into an escrow account until you get and verify the tickets.
Shipping will be done via fedex.

IF YOU WANT TO BUY THEM REPLY WITH:

FULL NAME:
SHIPPING ADDRESS

Thank you”

Does this sound like a scam? Has anyone ever fallen victim to a similar scam? Any feedback will be greatly appreciated!!

Do you think America will collapse soon?

I have been studying this topic lately and I’m afraid to say but I believe America’s time as the strongest world power is over. We (as Americans) are headed into the abyss.

I’ll start by pointing out a commercial that has recently aired about Americans math skills being placed at the 37th rank in countries. I find this appalling because America is/was one of the most prosperous countries in the world until recently. Math is not as important as it should be, and graduating high school requires no more than Algebra 2 basically. I would like to say that my generation is at fault by consisting of mostly morons who do not care about education, and think that because we live in America (The greatest country on earth in some opinions) that no work has to be done to maintain that title. My generation seems to think that getting rich quick by becoming a musician or an actor is the best way to make a living, without realizing that not everyone can do this, nor will everyone be able to. Disney shows that air now are mostly about people who form bands or become internet sensations by posting videos on Youtube and the like.

I live in a small town but even so we had foreign exchange students come to our school in the years i attended. Most of these students were very intelligent, and spoke more than one language. Important languages as far as job opportunities go. Languages that would improve their abilities to communicate with large foreign companies, i.e. German, English, Mandarin.
However in America learning a second language is believed to not be needed. In my high school the only two languages that were taught were Spanish and French. Spanish may be useful in communicating with Immigrants (Alot of which come to the area I live in) but Spanish speaking countries are not known specifically for their top tier businesses. And in my opinion, French is almost useless. It is not spoken by many people who live around here, and the two main countries who use it are Canada and France. Canada also uses English, so it may not be necessary to speak there.

Less emphasis is placed is on education these days and even in the school I went to, most of the schools funding went to sports teams. I know America has some of the highest ranking Colleges in the world but not everyone attends these, and until recently, a college degree was not thought to be needed to be successful. Even having a college degree though does not guarantee a decent job (shown by the idiots who were the “99%”). These were students who thought it unfair that they had went to school for History and English degrees and could not find well paying jobs. I mean how stupid is that. Its not that i don’t think those degrees aren’t somewhat important, but if money is the reason they went to college, shouldn’t a more lucrative field have been chosen? Rather than hoping they could learn what they thought interesting and become millionaires? I’m not trying to say that sports aren’t entertaining, or useful in building character, leadership, and social skills like working together, but I’m sure that if as much emphasis was placed on education as it was on sports that we wouldn’t have as many stupid people in America.

I would like to ask if anyone knows why my generation is as stupid as it is.

I would like to be wealthy myself one day, but I plan to attend college to study for Electrical Engineering, and on the side I am learning German by myself, with hopes of it helping me acquire a job with a company like IBM, BMW, Mercedes-Benz ect. And even then I know that a degree and knowing a second language does not guarantee an excellent paying job, and that I will have to work my way up the totem pole so to speak by learning on the job skills.

Where did these problems start? I’ve heard people say we need education reform in America but that teachers unions get in the way, because faulty teachers have guaranteed jobs regardless of how well their students learn. And standardized test make teachers teach what is on the test, instead of other useful career building information.

These are just a few of the reasons why I think America will collapse soon. Not enough people understand how our economy works or how the world economy works. People look to our President and country leaders to solve all of the problems instead of trying to help in ways they can.

Maybe this is more rant that question but I honestly believe America’s time at the top has ended.
Does anyone else have more insight as to why our country will fail? Or why it will not if that be the case.

Forgive the long question and disregard and spelling/grammatical errors.
@ Ann I’d like to believe that too but one thing my Pastor often mentions is in the Book of Revelations America is not mentioned lol. That may not mean that America wont be around but there is no promise that it will be,

Im attending a small Sixth Form College in Birmingham, England, with a student population of around 150 students. It is a very well off school and many of the students have extremely rich families. I want to raise money to send to a charity involved in helping ther situation in haiti as i have lost many friends in the natural disaster along with many friends who have lost family and possesions. I need some quick way of making a lot of money. Suggestions i have come up with so far (please give me your input on these) are; holding an auction getting some of the rich parents and local businesses to donate good items to go into an auction, have a dinner with a respected wellknown person/people attending and giving a speach selling the tickets for a fair price, some sport event although i dont know what – im a competetive swimmer but im not too well connected so i couldnt raise alot of money by myself, a competition within the school, a comedy event or a music event – im sure through contacts i can arrange an event with a comedian or well known musician to do a gig for free which would raise alot of money. How could i get people involved/interested.. eg. publicity. I need quick responses as the hatian people need our help now. Thank you!

I need help with making money while I am in High School.?

Okay so I am a senior in high school in Indianapolis, Indiana. I love working with kids, and I babysit all the time, but that is just not cutting it! I need money so I can do what I love to do; shop, keep my hair and nails done, go to games, movies and etc. But with me babysitting every now and then isn’t working for me. I am still 17 and will be 18 in January so I can’t work at day-cares or things just yet because you need to be at least 18, or I think so anyway. My question is what can I do in the mean time to make some money that involves kids and me NOT having to be 18 just yet. I know if I cant find anything I’ll have to do what I’ll have to do but I really, REALLY DO NOT want to work in a fast food restaurant! If there isn’t anything that you would recommend me to get new clientele for my babysitting PLEASE HELP. I really don’t charge that much like if it’s 2 or 3 kids for 4 or 5 hours I’ll charge like $35 or $40! I just need new ideas on what I can do until my birthday Jan. 23! If you can help in ANYWAY possible I will GREATLY appreciate it.

Ways to Make Fast Cash?

I am 14 years old and i want to make some money so that i can buy a new computer. I am fed up with everyone telling me to take online surveys because i don’t have a bank account, checking account, or pay pal nor will i get one in the near future. I really don’t want to go walking around the neighborhood saying: can i babysit your kid? Can i mow your lawn? etc. Any good ideas for how i can make some fast money(cash) without having to do any of those things?

Ways to earn money and quick please?

You see, I really wanna go see Diggy Simmons (please no hate, cuz I LOVE Diggy!) He’s coming to Kansas City on the 12 of February. I have 20 dollars so far because I watched my seventeen’s old cousin’s dog over the weekend while she went out of town for a cheer leading competition. The tickets I see are 44 dollars and the VIP package is 154 dollars. How can I make some more money and fast? My parents won’t let me model, so any ideas? And no babysitting, because half of the kids on my block are in their teens! Thanks!

P.S
I saw other people answer ‘prostitution. If anyone says that, I have no choice but to put that as abuse and report it! Just a friendly warning!

How can I book a vacation to LA with very limited funds and bad credit? It’s to visit my long lost brother.

I have just found my brother after thirty two years, I live in WV and he lives in LA. He is going to be on vacation in August and wants me, my husband, and two children to fly out there so he can meet us and take the kids to Disneyland. It’s going to cost $2500 with hotel, car, air, and tickets to Disney. That’s a really good deal, but I cannot have the money immediately to pay in advance without borrowing it. I have terrible credit and don’t want to apply for a bunch of loans and be declined to make my score worse. I need ideas and fast. I am about two months out from when we would fly out.
