Making money the weird way.


Being that I lost my job quite a while ago, I've gotten into the habit of trying to find ways to make money without finding a job, unfortunately this isn't quite as easy as it sounded when I thought of it. I started like most people, I backed up all my DVD's and CD's to my computer and sold them all, I started finding random shit around the house I could sell on Ebay. Right now my biggest source of income is donating plasma, you can donate twice a week and my clinic gives about 60 bucks a week which is better than nothing. That and some surveys my local mall does for 75 bucks are my major source of income at the moment. Some friends suggest that I sign up for clinical trials for new medicines, and donate sperm. I'm trying to avoid those while I look for a job.

Do any of you do anything like this for money? Do you know of any other ways to make supplemental income while job searching?

    Just basic health. That and you can't have gotten a piercing or tat in the last year. There are a few more things I can't remember. If you google "plasma center" and put wherever you live after it then you should find someone and call them. They may have more guidelines.

    A couple of my friends work for Cha Cha, you can do it from anywhere as long as you have an internet connection. Some of my friends have made pretty good money at it.

    Have you tried blogging? Just kidding. I don't really have anything constructive to tell you although I wish I did.

    Actually, you need a college degree to donate sperm.....To pay your way through college. :(

    Taking online surveys gives some good chunk change, but it's not very reliable.
