Oh, and don’t forget that investing in various financial products on the stock market can be pretty lucrative too. Of course, you will need to educate yourself about the different types of assets like Forex, EFTs, and Bitcoin, and the risks involved beforehand.
Also, not many people realise that you can buy up bitcoin, and rather than spending it you can save it and earn interest instead. Of course, to do this you will want to pick the bitcoin interest account that has the best rate of interest going. Then you will be able to maximize your returns and hang on to your Bitcoin too!

Cash Back on Online Purchases
Get a % back in cash/check when you make online purchases. If you are going to be doing some shopping anyway, do it online and get some cash back. There are tons for stores like Ebay, Old
Navy, Target, Best Buy…. and many other stores.
On Ebates, if you go through their site to get to many online stores you get some cash back on your purchases. They either send you a check or just put money in your PayPal account. It is that easy! If you plan on doing shopping anyway, this is a good deal. There are lots of stores (Overstock, Best Buy, Gap, Apple Store, HP, buy.com, …) They have a huge list.
It’s totally free. It looks like they make money from these sites advertising on their site.
They provide links to the stores and when you buy
stuff from the links you get a certain percentage
back. I think you can still use your own coupons when
you go to check out at the online store from whatever
site you go to.
You can also get cash when your friends buy stuff as
well. On Ebates
you only get a flat $5 when someone you refer buys
something for the first time. But, Ebates gives you
higher percentages back and you get $5 for yourself
when you sign up.
Surveys and Focus Groups
You can also answer surveys and join focus groups. Here are the ones which I have had success. Focus Forward is the best paying. I made $200 for a couple of hours once, and then we also got $75 for participating in a message board online for a few days.

MyLot
Mylot – It is like Myspace, but you get paid! You have friends, discussions, and your own profile. You get paid to write your own discussions or answer/respond to others. You also get paid just for posting your own pictures. Although it may seem like not very much at first, those pennies really do add up. This is a really easy way to get some extra money. It’s also a fun place to go to make friends and help others.
Sell Your Photos, Video, Artwork
Like to take pictures? Do you have some nice photographs? You could possibly make some money off of them.
There are many sites where you can upload your photos and start making money.
Here are a few: (I got this list from Site Point by J. Catone )
- BigStockPhoto – 50 cents to $3.00/image . I recently signed up and have 22 pictures on their site. Someone bought the first one yesterday. I got 50cents for the one photo and more people could end up downloading it as well. I don’t think there is a limit to how many times it can be downloaded or sold.
- iStockPhoto –
20-40% for photos from $1 to $20 (for photos) – more if you offer them an exclusive on your work. Also sells videos, illustrations, flash, and audio. 3.5 million + photos. - Dreamstime – $ .35 to $8.40/image – more for exclusives.
- Shutterstock – 25 cents per downloaded image. Refer friends and earn 3 cents/image sold by photographers you refered. Illustrations and video too.

Just Answer
Just Answer – If you have a degree, are an expert in a particular field, or just are good at researching topics you can make some money answering people’s questions. I recently started doing this. You have to first answer a few questions in a particular topic to be an expert in that category. There seem to be a lot of different types of questions being asked.
