Ways to Make Money
For one month, work hard for Uber eats, Doordash and the like to get what you need to save for that day. It is really just that easy to work only as much or as little as you want and if you choose busy times of day and busy areas, you will make money fast.
Another way to make money that takes more work but definitely works, is to clean up your old clothes and things that you haven’t used in a while and list them on quick selling sites like Nextdoor app, Offer Up, Facebook Marketplace and more. Some people have things sitting in storage and in closets that will be better used by turning them into cash.
Another way to use these apps is to search for people who need help with things that you can do from odd jobs to something in your wheelhouse. You can put out an ad as well describing skills you have and things you can do. People are always looking for help with landscaping, moving, power washing, car repairs, dog walking, home repairs and much more.
There is always the possibility of donating plasma that can provide up to $100 or more per session. You can donate about once a week or so, and can even earn donation bonuses from certain companies.
You may encounter ideas that suggest you use payday loans, take payroll advances and other similar schemes. But when you borrow against yourself by taking from your future budget and adding high interest, you are putting yourself in financial trouble. The way to financial freedom and saving money is to use legitimate ways to make some extra cash.
