Yeah, those are okay, but they arent on the list here.

You need some ideas you havent heard of.

I suspect youll be able to use a couple of them to boost your income…

1.

Waitress Waiting Tables

Why not team up with them to make some money?

For example, years ago a coworker wanted to buy an old Corvette for $2,300.

He came to me for $3,300 to buy it and prepare it for sale.

Okay, so people like old stuff.

I never even sat in the vehicle (it was just a car).

Offer a percentage if shell format it and get it listed for sale as a Kindle e-book.

2.

If you work in the kitchen you’ve got the option to start your training there.

Ask questions of everyone around you and investigate every part of the business.

Study how your boss financed her company.

When someone clicks through and decides to buy something I get a 5% commission.

If someone buys something after clicking on those links you get paid.

Finda good list of affiliate programsand search for those that have a second tier.

That means if you refer another affiliate youll get paid for their sales too.

Get enough people under you and these little streams of income could add up to something substantial.

Get a Second Paycheck

Nobody knows what employers need as well as those who work for them.

They paid us cash for a few days work.

Look for anything that your employer needs which you’re able to provide.

He ran right over to apply.

That might have motivated a few people to apply.

What if your employer doesnt pay for referrals?

Suggest that they start.

Who knew that charging 6% per week might be illegal?

I wasnt familiar with usury laws.

I was just being helpful.

Youll make more than the bank is paying.

I worked for years at a business which had a soft drink machine in the break room.

I once salvaged a perfectly good door that an employer was throwing it away.

I used it for an addition I built on my house, but I could have sold it.

Keep your eyes and ears open.

Look for any opportunity to get something cheap or free that you’re free to sell.

Cut Your Costs

You probably have to work or pay to take a bus or train.

You might buy work clothes and necessary tools and supplies.

Ask your employer to provide any necessary things that you ordinarily buy.

Ride with coworkers to save on gas.

A friend had her schedule changed from five eight-hour days to four ten-hour days per week.

Commuting one less day saved her about $12 per weekandmore than an hour of her time.

Work Better Hours

Not all work hours are equal in terms of pay.

If you get a higher rate for working weekends and holidays, why not work those days?

Overtime usually pay 50% more per hour.

But what if you dont want to work more hours?

Remember, I said that one wasnt going to be on this list.

The solution is to creatively arrange your schedule.

Take a day off one week and work an extra day on overtime the next week.

Youll work the same number of hours for the two weeks, but get paid more.

Do this with holidays and weekends too if youre paid more for those.

He could be right behind you now looking over your shoulder.

Sorry to scare you like that, but then who needs a boss who is scary?

As part of your job you probably interact with other potential employers and their employees every week.

Make polite conversation and ask people about their jobs.

Now close this window quickly if youre at work… really.

Your Turn: Have you got your own tricks and techniques for squeezing more income out of your job?

Probably not as good as youd like.

It always seems like an uphill battle to build (and keep) a decent amount in savings.

But what if your car breaks down, or you have a sudden medical bill?

Ask one of these companies to help…
