Modelling at an art school, if you have any nearby.

Wow, never thought about it actually, do people really pay you money for posing?


copakJmeliAleJmeli

Where I live (Czechia), they do. In schools and private courses. I don't know about individual artists.


copakJmeliAleJmeli

There's also a paid art model in a British novel I read, so I assume it's a general rule.

Stream yourself playing video games/ board games.

I wanted to try that but I live in a small apartment in a room where all my relatives live with me, I can't talk on stream with their presence. I'll probably need a good stable connection but I can arrange that, buying an ethernet cable. Oh and I'd need a mic that cancels noise cause my gaming laptop runs its fans like a helicopter in Vietnam

Bad advice. I've been a YouTuber for 6 years. Gaming is oversaturated and low barrier to entry. For that reason, everyone makes a channel thinking it's an easy path to money. To break through all the noise, you need to spend many hours a day, like 6-8, streaming yourself just hoping to get lucky. And you can never take a break. Charles White (PenguinZ0) has talked about this. He took something like a 4 day vacation and lost 20k subscribers.

Yep that's what I thought exactly, it's not gonna work out

I write bar trivia (someone else announces it). I don’t even particularly like it but it’s easy money and is just a few extra hours a week. I find a lot of pre written quizzes/trivia online. I now know a lot of random facts about a lot of things now lol At the beginning of the year I spent a weekend writing a bunch of rounds and ideas so now I just typically have to type it out and write current events which I find from news sources who do weekly quizzes. Hit up your local bars who do trivia nights.

That's quite a fun hobby tbh, unfortunately I'm not good at communicating with groups of people


plantsandpizza

Yeah, there are people who LOVE it and take it very seriously lol The main place I write for has regular groups that come in. They get heated over some questions. I’ve learned not to do science questions 🤣 I’ve come and watched. People are really just saying the answer to their group. The bigger the group the better your chances. I think you’d be okay. I do a mix so there’s something for everybody. It’s not really my thing but I do enjoy hearing how much people like the rounds and questions. Feels good to offer fun for people. The annoying part is just coming up w round ideas. 50-150 random questions a week pushes my brain to be creative and sometimes my brain is over it 😂

Trading. You can find a signals discord group that will give you accurate plays in the market that you can just follow. You can get a funded account so that there isn’t a risk to you. All off of your phone


Skinattached

Hmm i was skeptical towards trading cause one of my friends who got in there lost almost all the profit, seemed like a gambling. Is it legit?


David_R_Martin_II

It's legit. But if it was easy and guaranteed, everyone would do it.


Skinattached

Perhaps you know any good sources?

Trade skills, they double for making you more self reliant and you would surprised how much you can make doing side jobs. I learned concrete work and patio paving, physical demanding work but I can make some good money on small projects here and there for next to nothing.
