Nine Nifty Ways to Earn an Extra $100 Bucks a
Month
You don’t have to suffer if you are hurting for money. Renting
can be expensive, and sometimes not exactly worth the money you
pay. You’ve got to pay your monthly rent, plus your electric
bill, water bill, gas bill, and other bills. Consider
everything monthly. The rates build up, and you can easily fall
into debt. No one wants to get in debt, but sometimes it seems
unavoidable. However, there is a way you can afford it, and get
your money’s worth every month, while seemingly lowering your
monthly payments. No matter what the situation, there’s an
apartment that’s right for you.
Get a small side Internet job that you can work from home. Many
online jobs allow you to put in some time once a week or so on
weekends, so you can have more money coming in. This can
quickly equate to earning an extra $100 a month.
Sell items on eBay. If you have a hobby of garage sale hopping,
look for small treasures when you’re out shopping. Buy cheap
and sell high on eBay. EBay is an online auction website that
allows you to sell items quickly and easily. If you stick to it
and make it a priority, you can easily earn an extra $100 a
month.
Turn a hobby into a small business. If you enjoy web design but
don’t do it as a career, advertise that you can create web
sites for people quickly and easily. Don’t charge too much,
because you want to do it as a hobby and you do want to get
customers. But charging a nominal fee is a great way to turn
something you enjoy doing into $100 each month.
Find people who owe you money. If you start tying up loose ends
and tracking down people you have judgments against, you can
start collecting cash. Also look at cable companies that you
may have overpaid. Ask for your refund. Find companies that you
owe money to and it quite possibly can turn into an extra $100
each month.
Start selling old things in your house that you no longer need.
Everyone has things in their home that they haven’t used in a
year or more. These items oftentimes can be sold quite easily
and not missed. Start posting these items on sites like Craig’s
List or eBay and you can quickly and easily earn extra income
each month. This is also a great way to start sorting out the
things from your home that you no longer need. Soon enough you
will have a streamlined household.
Instead of having bills mailed to you, and having to worry
about writing and mailing out checks to several different
people every thirty days, there’s one flat rate to pay every
month. This payment will include your rent bill, water, gas,
electric, and many other things that come with the apartment.
You’d be surprised at how low the payments per month actually
are.
Look for hidden fees if you are contemplating renting an
apartment. You want to make sure you are paying for the
amenities you want and not for things you do not use or could
do without. Find out how utilities are paid for. Obviously, gas
and electric bills are very high due to everyone living in the
apartment, but are the bills divided up equally among tenants
or does everybody pay their own according to use. Which option
would suit your needs best?
Living in an apartment and having one fixed bill per month can
be a major stress reliever, and a good way to help things get
organized. Apartments can be fun and cheap places to live.
Annual fees are expenses paid every year for keeping/owning
your credit card. These fees are usually tracked by points. For
example, 10 points equals 10% of the original credit line. So
if you’ve got a $200 bill, you might have 25 days to pay it,
and if you’re late on the payment, you’ll get charged a certain
amount of money in addition to the original $200
fee.
