Repair Cars

The majority of college students who have a car don't know how to make minor repairs on their own or how to deal with sudden situations that might face them. If you do, you're in luck. Consider making a small investment in tools and supplies and then advertise for reasonably-priced onsite repairs and maintenance work like oil changes.

How to Make Money on Youtube

Here's an interesting video we found for making money on Youtube. Enjoy :-)

Time Management

As we all know how students are enthusiast and energetic when it comes to trying and exploring new situations. When students start making extra income through what they enjoy the most such as; cooking, photographing, teaching and drawing, they become more eager to make more and more money. 

Where can they go wrong? Lets keep in mind that those students have other responsibilities like studying, assignments, home duties family obligations. Getting into the "money making" field, it will affect the students time management regarding all the duties and tasks they have. 

My advice to you is, you still have time to become one of those people who have millions in their bank accounts. Take the advantage of being a student but it does not mean that you cannot make money, time management is important. 

Advantages and Disadvantages of Making Money Online

Here is an interesting video highlighting a few points you might consider when trying to earn money online :-)

Shedding light on the darker side of the coin

Talking about the alternative methods of income often engages work from home – it's more  convenient, doesn't involve long hours in traffic in your way to the office plus you can do some of the housework during your “office day”. The big question that arise does it make you more productive, stimulated and motivated or there is a possibility that you are missing something by not seeing your colleagues face to face every day.

I found an interesting article that discusses the decision of Yahoo’s Marissa Mayer to ban “working remotely”. From Yahoo’s point of view working side-by-side is a crucial component of working effectively and efficiently and that the speed and the quality when we work from home “are sacrificed”.

Another opinion that supports Yahoo’s view is given by the Virgin mogul Sir Richard Branson saying that working remote from the office and your coworkers is “a backwards step”.

So what do you think? If you work from home, no matter whether is a part time job or full time job, permanent position or just an alternative way of making additional income, how much time do you actually dedicate on working and how  for much making tea, checking the press or shopping online?
