Even in an economy like this, there are many ways to make money. So if you want to know how to make money, you've come to the right place. It doesn't matter your age, gender, race or physical ability. You would be hard pressed to find someone who is incapable of making money. The great part about it is there are easy ways to make money as well as some ways that require time or a special skill set. What you have to first deal with is your mental state. A lot of people will immediately become offended and start blaming all sorts of reasons for them not being able to find work or come up with ways to make extra money. There are a bunch of ideas for making money further down, but you really need to read this whole post to get in the right frame of mind.

Consider this, during the great depression, believe it or not, there were people that didn't even know they were supposed to be in a depression. There were those who capitalized on the situation and there were those that actually created businesses during that time that are still around today. That in itself should show you that you're capable of learning how to make money. "But what can I do; I'm the wrong color or age or sex or disabled in some way." I tell you it doesn't matter. With the right plan and determination, you can earn enough money to change your family tree.

There's a personality trait that's in most people and it hinders their money making efforts as well as keeps potential new home businesses from being born. I'll give you a couple of examples from the bible. There is a story told around two lepers that were banished out of the city. The city was famished and so were they. As they were sitting, one said to the other, "Why should we sit here til we die? If we sit here, we'll surely die. If we go to the city, they may kill us for coming into the city as lepers jeopardizing the health of the citizens, but due to the wide spread famine, they may have mercy on us and help us." So they decided to go to the city and lo and behold there was a battle that took place and soldiers from other camps brought food and other substances with them, but in the heat of the battle they lost heart and ran; leaving all their stuff behind. Well, the lepers had a feast.

The other is a parable Jesus told of a steward that mishandled his master's goods. The steward was summoned by his master and was set a date to answer for himself because he was going to be rejected from being steward. Well, the steward thought to himself seeking a way to rectify himself before his appointment with his master. He accepted he didn't have any other skills to support himself and if he were to be reduced to begging, he was too ashamed to do that. So he decided to do what he knows. He went to those that owed his master and had them pay something on what they owed. It doesn't openly say whether the payment was to be a paid in full or just an installment on the total. But it showed that at least the steward was making an attempt to at least get something rather than waiting for those that owe his master to get around to settling their debts. In the end, the master commended the unjust steward for what he did.

I used the two above examples because they reveal two powerful enemies to making money. It's best not to go into defence mode. These traits are prevalent in the majority of the world's population. Its failure to take disciplined action and fear of shame and embarrassment. These two culprits have stopped more progress than lack of knowing what to do ever could. If you can overcome these flaws, you can write your own ticket to success. Most of us will begin a project, but go flat in the follow through. Think of all the weight set, the exercising outfits, the gym subscription, the tread mills, the tools, the how to books and on and on that are just gathering dust because we started on something but lost the drive to keep going; so we never so the results. You have to beat this weakness. Ask your self a question. How's that not taking disciplined action been working for you?

The other character fault, fear of shame and embarrassment is just as debilitating. Granted, you should have shame about some things, but if it's a legitimate opportunity, shame has no place in it. Some people are afraid of that feeling of rejection and having to see the person in another environment who turned down their offer . They're afraid of the feeling of embarrassment that may come from people finding out they're looking for ways to make extra money. It may give the impression of being in financial trouble. They may fear the embarrassment of failure itself. At any rate, that fear of shame will rob you of your opportunity to go forward and leave you dependent on someone else idea of your self worth and whether you should be allowed to advance or not. That is the real shame. You have the same right to succeed as those that have gone on before you and achieved it. The only way to beat these enemies of success is to meet them head on and win by shear determination. You have to push through to the end result. If your first effort doesn't fly, try something else.

Just the other day, as I was driving, I saw a guy standing on the side of a busy street outside a tax office wearing a mint green statue of liberty outfit; holding the US flag and dancing around like he was trying to fire ants out of his pants. The tax office was called liberty tax services. Now I don't know about you, but I would be a little hesitant about standing on the street of a busy road for all to see me in a liberty outfit. Maybe I would if it came with a piece that completely conceals my face. But, hey, you do what you have to if you want to get noticed and make that money. My problem is, I didn't ask him, but he probably was hired or was on a wage and had to do it. Instead of making a spectacle for one low paying personal business, why not be your own boss and go around soliciting other businesses for a fee and make some real money. You could cut out the middle man and keep more of the profits; and pick your own costumes that have head pieces that hide your identity. Or you could hire your own workers and pay them a small fee to do that all over town. You see, you have to change your way of thinking before the real money making opportunities reveal themselves.

The average Individual is steeped in debt or is always one paycheck away from being harassed by creditors; so they want to know the easy ways to make money in the shortest time possible. Well, the quickest way to make a few dollars is to do what Jesus did. Remember when he taught the masses. He had compassion on them and wanted to feed them before he sent them away. Well, no one planned for that, so they were woefully unequipped to deal with the situation. Jesus asked the question, "what do you have?" There was a little boy who had his lunch of some fish and loaves of bread. Jesus took that and fed over five thousand men, not counting women and children. I know you're probably thinking, "That was Jesus, the Son of God!" The principle is the same...

You may not have a lot of smarts, or technical skill, but ask yourself the question what can I do. Some of the examples below illustrate the fastest way to make money. You don't have to wait for training or someone else to help you or anything. You're wired to do at least one thing better than anyone else. You just have to find it. Even if you think you're not, there are basic abilities in all of us that we can do. Just look around. People in this day are either lazy or have way too much on their plate. They're practically drooling over themselves trying to find someone to do something they just can't or don't want to do. There's one thing you have to accept, though. Usually, fast money is little money. If anyone can easily do it, don't expect the task to have a large return with it. In this case, you will have to let volume increase your return. What I mean is you will have to do a lot of those jobs to get the money you want.

So in no random order, let's list a few ways to make more money   

An important note to getting some of these gigs is to key on solving a problem for your potential customer rather than coming across as looking for a job. It's your responsibility to show them how you're actually helping them by providing your services. To do that, you need to be able to talk about the dangers, the negative attention, the fears and what ever else that causes concern for your potential client and how you can fix that worry right now for a price that's great. Starting with how you can make something better may not be the best route if they don't see where they're at as needing to be changed.

 

Tax time comes around yearly, quarterly, semi and anually. Everybody's not expecting large returns or long difficult forms to fill out. If you can follow written instructions, you can go around neighborhoods and businesses and make your services known for filling out simple 1040EZ and sales tax returns. you'll find that a lot of people are scared to make a mistake so they wont even trust them self to fill out this extremely easy form. Tax agencies even use them as a loss leader to get customers into the doors.

You can give them the 411 on what happens. See, the tax agencies advertise free tax preparation on 1040EZ forms, but the catch is the preparation is free, but the filing has a charge to it. They may or may not let you leave with the finished prepared tax if you don't use the filing option. You could use that to your advantage and agree to prepare, file and mail it for them for $10 or $20. It takes less than twenty minutes to complete a 1040EZ.

That's anywhere from $30 to $60 an hour. Consider how many you could do in a neighborhood and day? Because of the sensitive information that you're privy to, you may want to avoid insisting you take their information home and opt to do it in their presence. You'd be surprised how many people would jump at the chance to have their taxes filed and out of their hair.

 

Offer specialized landscaping that their regular guy wont do. You don't have to have a ;large mover or truck to earn extra money landscaping people yards. During this time, pine needles, pine cones, dead branches, over grown bushes and so many other things that's done by your neighbor's yard man can be done by you. Usually, the average landscaper doesn't trim branches from over grown trees and shrubs without adding more to the bill.

They'd rather focus on what they do in order to get as many yards done per day as possible; and nit picking with extra requests tends to slow them up. So they have no problem dishing the job over to someone else. Just invest in a sharp saw and go around offering to shape up their tree branches in preparation for the coming spring and summer. Once again, many people don't even think about having this done because they feel they would have to pay crazy prices to a tree surgeon.

Focus on limbs that aren't hanging over homes and other stuff that might get damaged from falling debris. You don't have to be bonded in such cases.

 

Do what the maid wont. yes, she may not do windows, but you should. Especially during the winter. Snow is filthy. It leaves an awful residue. You can offer your services to clean the snow off the window, the seal and clean the glass. In many cases, they'll even let you use their household tools to do it. However, I would suggest you invest in your own. How much could a scraper, rag and window cleaner cost. You can work out the fee for such things.

 

Offer to clean gutters and snow off roof tops. Every year, many people are injured going up on a ladder trying to do this on their own. A sturdy broom and garden hoe will do wonders. In this case, if you're short on cash, you may have to use their ladder, but it may be worth while to get your own. You could haul it around on a wagon or some sort of apparatus with wheels on it. If you have a car, you can strap it to the top. Place a sturdy cloth or rubber mat on the top to help prevent scratching your paint.

 

Go around the neighborhood or marketplace parking lot and offer to restore the headlight coverings of vehicles. You can go to any big box mart store or auto joint and pick up a kit for less than twenty dollars. offer to do it for ten dollars a pop. You could go to a junk yard and score a set of headlight of a junker or find them at someone house who has old cars. At any rate, they're easy to find. Clean up one and leave the other as is. This one works great with the note above. You can increase your odds by mentioning how you can make it easier for them to see at night and help protect their little ones on the road.

You can go around and show the difference the cleaning makes, that you can do it while they shop. Tell them it takes no time at all and voila! almost instant sell. The only problem with the market place thing is you will not likely get paid until the job is done and who knows how long it's going to take them to finish shopping. The best would be going around the neighborhoods offering your services.

 

Go to the above mentioned retail outlets and purchase this amazing product called Rain-x. It works fabulously. It causes water to cascade off smooth surfaces. It even makes the surface crystal clear allowing you to see better even at night. Once again, you can get small panes of glass or plastic. Treat one and keep a spray bottle with you. Approach people showing them the difference and state your price. For the skeptical, you can do a 6x6 spot on their windshield and show them how well it works in that spot. More than likely, they'll want the rest of the windshield done. You'll want to treat a spot that they don't use for viewing like somewhere on the passenger side.

You can price per window or just the windshield. This is an awesome one for using fear to bring awareness of the need for this service. Once again, you can allude to the safety of having clean clear windows that help them get back safe and sound to their little ones or get their little ones home safely. It's so slick that it helps to keep ice and frost from sticking as bad, too. You have to try this stuff. It was originally used in the air force for jet fighters.

 

Instead of letting the city collect the recyclables, why not go around and ask your neighbors if you could get them. You have to be diligent about picking it up, though. No one wants to have a bunch of garbage hanging around their home any longer than they have to, unless they're a hoarder; and that's a whole other topic there.

You don't need fancy collecting bins. Just buy some sturdy trash bags to hold your stuff. Agree to a pickup time and stick to it. That could be a chore for your kids. You could even drive them around and let them collect it. You could even use them as part of your marketing by taking them with you as a way of showing them work ethic. People tend to melt over stuff like that and will grin from ear to ear over their chance to help these wayward kids learn discipline and hard work. You don't have get it all. Just focus on the aluminum products. People drink sodas year round and constantly. you'd be surprised how quickly you'd need to turn them in for money. Also, your neighbors get to do a double solid by recycling, which helps the environment. They also get to help their fellow man, namely, you.

 

If you have a truck or solid car, offer to haul off trash for those out of the city limits. The city has drop off points that are convenient for its citizens, However, those in rural areas tend to be not so fortunate. They can burn it in order to reduce the size, but eventually, something has to be hauled off. Just drive around and look for piles of clutter in yards and offer to assist. Usually, you'll have no problem dumping it at the drop point if you tell the attendant that you're helping out those who live in the area but don't have the transportation to come themselves.

 

Offer to paint around windows and doors. People hate doing that stuff, yet, know it needs to be done. They don't want to have to commit to a full blown paint job, so they wont ask a painter to do it. You can target homes that have the basic black or white scheme. If you look at them, you can see where dust, dirt and rain has discolored the wood, also where greasy hands mar or keys scratched around door posts. You could spiff up those areas for a fee.

 

Offer to paint or clean lawn furniture and swings. That stuff is hardly ever touched up. You can use bleach free cleaners and make it look a sight better than it did before you did them.

 

Offer an in-house ironing or clothes washing service.

 

Offer to take the elderly to doctor appointments and shopping. Many elderly don't want to be seen as a bother to their busy loved ones and would gladly pay to have you taxi them around.

 These are just the tip of the ice-berg. You should be able to see how this can grow into a business of its own. It doesn't only have to be how to make extra money. It can be money to replace your current employment. You've probably seen other sites that only give examples on how to make more money that disclose ways that still take more effort than you want before you can even start the job. But the ones above can get you started right now. Most don't require any additional manpower, certifications or licenses. You can be well on your way using the easiest ways to make money around. Easy doesn't always mean lack of effort. but it's easy in relation to time needed to start and tools required.

Making extra money can be the difference in a stress free life and one filled with tension. Most business opportunities try and grab you with scenes of vacationing on an exotic beach or living in a huge mansion. Yet, most people would breath easy if they could get just one or two of their creditors from ringing their phone. The above jobs can do just that. Speaking of creditors calling, here's a big tip you can take from them.

Most people aren't aware of their net worth. They define things by the money they have on their person or bank account. Have you ever heard the statement that some people are millionaires on paper? That's because they have assets in other things that aren't as liquid as cold cash. For instance, some people may have a cash surrender value on their life insurance policy or can take a loan out on it for a certain amount. Some have jewelry that they haven't worn in years or completely forgot about. Some may have broken jewelry that they can't wear. Some may have bikes and tread mills that are gathering dust. you get the picture.

If you sat down and went through all the things you could turn into money, you'd be surprised how much money you could come up with in a day. Practically every city has a pawn shop. Just go through your possessions and separate the needs from the wants. Release the emotional attachments from them and sell it off. This is a great way to make extra money...Fast.
