Fast Cash Please!
So I am feeling like I need a second job cause I need more income, but if I were to have a second job with my crappy schedule (about 9am-7pm including my on campus job) then it would have to be worth it. All I can think of is waitressing and maybe being able to make tips, but the hours would be really late and I might not survive.
Anyone have any advice? I doubt theres any quick money making tips out there... legal ways lol

Possibly tutoring or editing? I edit, mostly late in the evenings. It pays alright.

People's papers and such. There's a rate for just grammar/spelling/punctuation/awkward wording and phrasing, and then a rate for that + content. Also, I sell notes around midterms. Whore out my brain and such.

How do you get into that, and how do you know you're good enough for tutoring. Like I could tutor Level 1 math but so could alot of people right

-do ppl's homework
-tutor people
-beg your parents
-have a garage sale
-sell shet online
-stand in a corner downtown at night

edit/
-get a rich bf/gf, whichever way u swing

You could just quit your mac job and get a decent serving/bartending job. that way you could make enough tips to balance out only have one job vs. two, and save yourself having to coordinate your class schedule ontop of 2 jobs.

Its all about the lottery.
Tutoring isnt bad as well.

Gamble?

Yeah, Idk. Some are practical, some aren't.

I was thinking about that for a while now, I really like making people mixed drinks and I own a bunch of obscure liquors, if I could learn a bit more about it Id like bar tending... how do you get the license? I know you need your smart serve for waitressing
