Tips On Earning Extra Cash 03•26•2019



Let’s talk about money. The one thing the most of us are trying to obtain. Whether you’re a member of the corporate world like me or a full time entrepreneur, we could all stand to add more sources of income to our catalog. We’ve all heard or read the quote “The average millionaire has seven sources of income”, because all of our readers are destined to be millionaires, we’ve put together a few supplemental income ideas to help you earn a few hundred bucks a week.

  1. Uber/Lyft Driver. Do you own a newer car with no visible damage? Do you have full coverage and a good driving history? Driving an Uber/Lyft might be perfect for you. With the option of an instant deposit up to 5 times a day, the turn around time on your cash is the ultimate plus. This does not include cash tips that you may receive from your passengers for the outstanding customer service that you will provide. Your car will be fully covered by Uber/Lyft for all rides given and will cover any damages or injuries caused during your rides. A few things to keep in mind when driving an Uber/Lyft. First, you will get more of a return when you live in a busy city. I live in South Florida where an Uber/Lyft is requested by the seconds. Secondly, keep in mind the miles that will accrue on your vehicle. If you lease this is not the gig for you. Lastly, choosing your hours of operation will be critical. Let’s not forget that you will be driving complete strangers to their next destination. Choosing a time where you’re less likely to encounter the partygoers or making yourself vulnerable for other unforeseen instances are an important piece to making this gig successful.
  2. Trade. What are you good at? Cooking? Cleaning? Dog person? It’s time you started charging for it! Stop baking cakes and pies for family members when they should be paying you for your services. The best thing about making a profit on a trade is most likely it’s something you love to do and have been doing for years. Charging people for your expertise will be the only difference. Stop thinking about all of the people who are already doing it. Look at the tissue isle and detergent isles. Hundreds of product that serve the same purpose. It’s about targeted your own loyal customers and keeping them coming to purchase from you and only you.
  3. Tutoring. Is there a subject that you know a lot about or understand with ease? You should really think about helping out students who struggle in these areas. Not only will you be helping the community, you’ll also earn extra money while building relationships with kids who may return the favor in the future (babysitting, lawn care, pet sitting etc).
  4. Air BNB/VRBO. Do you have a vacant property or secluded area in your home with a full bathroom and private entry? Maybe you’re an extra tidy person who spends a lot of time somewhere else and are hardly home. Using your home to host out of town guests seeking accommodations is a pretty lucrative idea. It’s an even better idea if you live in a high tourist city. The prices you can charge nightly can be just as much if not more than an average hotel in your area. Not only that you get a service/cleaning fee added on top of that. If you have a vacant rental property this will be a good way to make money until you get your unit occupied. You just have to be willing to furnish it in the meantime.
  5. Online Store. Do you own a lot of things? Or have friends and family members that do? Start a consignment shop reselling items that are no longer wanted. There are lots of different avenues you can use to make a profit. eBay and Craigslist aren’t your only options anymore. Now we have Let Go, Offer Up and Amazon. You can create a store on all apps at the same time to increase your chances of landing a sale. The best things about these apps are you can sale local only if you would rather meet up with locals in a safe common area and cut out shipping and handling.

Toxicity 1•20•2019

So we are over half way through the first month of 2019.    How many people have you actually cut off like you told all of your social media followers you would?    If your answer is no don’t feel bad.    You’re only a small percent of the millions of people being victimized by toxicity.    I also have been blinded by toxic friends, lovers, jobs and family members.    Whether you like to admit it or not, keeping toxicity around us rubs off.    You may not realize it, but because of your interactions with toxic situations and toxic people, you have acquired some toxic traits.    Hopefully after reading this article we will all start the process of removing toxicity from our lives, but I hope we also are able to identify our own toxic characteristics and avoid victimizing other people and being apart of the never ending circle. There are so many toxic situations surrounding us but the most popular are friends, ...

Bridal Gang 101 08•19•2019

 I got to be apart of a beautiful union between two friends. I experienced being a bridesmaid for the first time. If you’ve never been married or ever been a bridesmaid/groom like myself, then 9 times out of 10 you have no idea what accepting that title entails.    Don’t fret! That’s why I’m here to try everything first and give you the do’s and don’ts after.  First things first. You need to go into this experience with the mindset that everything you are about to do is all for the bride and groom. Nothing about this experience is for you. A lot of people accept being a bridesmaid/groom and somewhere down the line the focus shifts from who the wedding is about creating all sorts of havoc. The bride/groom owe you nothing! By accepting the role in this union you are agreeing to take on all that comes with it.  As a bridesmaid/groom, you are required to buy your dress/tux and shoes. For women you will have to pay for you own hair, makeup and nail care. S...
