10 EASY ways you can make money in college(:!

Hey out there ladies! 

So as of late I've really had finances on the brain - yawn, right? No one likes to talk finances. However, the Google machine has popped out many useful tips that I will start doing this summer! Allow me to share them with you...:)

1. If you want to make some easy money for college, start donating plasma and blood! Apparently, you can get paid a pretty decent amount for doing it! And I know for the blood they let you go every few days, but i'm not really sure how many times a week you can go for plasma. But hey, $35 extra dollars in your pocket is nice! 

2. If any of you have blogs or YouTube accounts, this one's for you! All you have to do is apply for Adsense and start making money off of the ads on your videos or blog pages. Granted, you won't neccessarily be rolling in the dough, but in time you could make a pretty penny! 

3. If you have a computer and the internet, this one is easy: freelance writing. All you have to do for this is be decent at writing and the ability to send your work to other people. There are freelance writing jobs all over the internet! Just use Google (:. 

4. Bouncing off of freelance writing, you can also sort of be a freelance photographer! Take stock photos and give them to websites where you can make a profit everytime someone downloads your photo. http://www.dreamstime.com/?gclid=CJP3zeOu87cCFZE-MgodXF8AcQ

5. I recommend starting a little online shop of handmade items. Etsy.com is a place where you can sell anything you make handmade! I'm going to be selling a jewelry line on there soon!

6. Find out what you are good at doing and sell your talent! I saw an idea on a website that said if you are good at mani/pedi's than sell your services at a cheaper college-friendly price! This is very inexpensive as the equipment needed for a pedicure can all be purchased the the Dollar Tree :). If you're a good note taker, sell your notes. If you are good at teaching, be a speech tutor or writing tutor! 

7. This one is easy and everyone can do it, no skill level required. Recycle! Take what you already are buying and using, and sell it back! Easy! 

8. During the holiday seasons, sell something like flowers or handmade chocolate! Charge at a reasonable college-friendly price on campus! Put flyers around to let people know!

9. Teach a mini-course. You can make this mini course on DIYing, cosmetics, writing, speaking, study habits, making money ;) - anything! Any skill that you think people would want to learn :).

10. For all you organizers and cleaners, how 'bout this one! Put flyers around campus letting people know that you can be there cleaning lady for a fee, or even someone who is good at sorting and organizing! If you want, you can keep this limited to your dorm building too as a way of getting to know the people there. 


Those are my ten unique ideas! Hope you got some inspiration from some and take advantage of all the easy ways to make some dough! I know I will. 

Happy hunting!
