    Hi everyone,

    Just wondering if anyone can come up with ways people can make extra cash in their spare time?

    Was thinking of getting into something like this, as my current job is relativly boring, and doesnt pay very well. Iv been trying to leave since about Jan, but Im a little fussy, and cannt find a job in the area I want to get into (marketing - or something related to it, where I can be a bit creative!!)

    Was thinking maybe photography (altough Id have to buy a camera!!), or maybe do some art work and sell it off (no idea who would even buy it though).

    So any ideas would be great. Was thinking this thread might be handy for other out there too!

    Thanks:)

    uh, you're thinking of photography and you've no camera? thats like trying to be a english teacher who can't read. do you have experience with art or do you just think art work is a easy way of making money? if you know any crafts such as knitting try selling your wares at fairs and markets.

    I took art classes a while back, and really enjoyed it. Was pretty good at it too. I was in a furnature shop the other day with a friend of mine, and they also sold art work. Thought I could have done better myself to be honest!!

    I do have a camera, but I would have to up grade it, if I was going to take it up as a serious hobbie. I know a guy that works in the same company as me and he is very serious about photography. Has his work displayed all over the world. But he said it can be hard to make a sale. He might get 800euro or so a month out of it, and therefore needs a full time job. His work is amazing though.

    Im just looking for some ideas. Was even thinking maybe giving grinds to secondary school students, in business or maths!! Donno.
