MAKE More moola
WHAT can you do better than the person next to you? With an answer to that question, your ability to earn money is limitless.
Take advantage of that skill to start a business and share it with the world. If you don’t have an answer to that question, there are still a variety of other money-making ideas proven to work.
Try honing your retail arbitrage* skills, renting out space/possessions you don’t use to full capacity, or getting out and mowing lawns.
If running a business doesn’t interest you, check out apps like EasyShift for simple tasks that turn free time into money. For more steady work, become an independent contractor for TaskRabbit or Lyft.
Earning money in college is not limited to flipping burgers for minimum wage. All it takes is the hustle to take advantage of the opportunities in front of you.
