Ramen noodles for dinner, a packed of canned beans for breakfast, it’s the ideal image of a broke student trying not to squeeze too much cash out from its wallet. Yes, college is hard, how much more when your allowance doesn’t cover enough both your expenses for school and yourself.
That’s why a lot of students have opted for part-time jobs while they’re still at school. Student in the morning, worker in the night, what a life. Finding a part-time job isn’t easy. However, there are three of them that you can make some extra cash during your spare time. So what are they? Let’s take a look at them down below.
- Cryptocurrency
- If trading is your thing, then
you’ll love a job that involves cryptocurrency. But first, you need to do your
research so that you’ll know how to survive in the world of trading. Once you
get the hang of it, then you’re ready to bust some moves and let the money flow
in. The best part about cryptocurrency trading is that you can do this whenever
and wherever you want. Be it during a class break, or while waiting for your
torrents to finish, or in the middle of cooking where you wait for your dish to
be fully-cooked. The flexibility of trading is limitless.
- Being a Freelance Writer
- If you’re good with words and
mostly excels in English classes, then being a freelance writer is suited for
you. There are plenty of freelance jobs that involve writing. Be it
copywriting, article writing, or editing, you name it. However, the world of
freelance is full of scam. So you better be careful if you want to take this
road of opportunity. Proper research is key to avoid such “scams” so you’ll be
able to find a legitimate one.
- Sell Your Stuff
- If you have a lot of stuff with you that you’ve already grown into it or doesn’t use anymore, then it’s time to sell them to earn some cash. If you take a look at Facebook or Instagram, you will find lots of students selling “pre-loved” items at a price that won’t break the bank. These items are mostly clothing, but if you have some “other” pre-loved items such as gadgets, vinyl records, or collectibles that you don’t find use anymore, then time to open up a garage sale then. The best way to sell these items is by using Facebook’s “marketplace” feature, where you can find buyers around your area for an easy cash grab.
