How can I make more money?
Comments

I already get paid twice the (london)going rate for one of my jobs, and well over national average for the other - I hate both of them, so am really only in them for the money - not much I can do there I'm afraid.KatrinaC wrote:What about working smarter instead of harder? Have you tried looking for a better paid job (I know, there aren't many of those flying about) or asking for a pay rise?

Incidentally Mirtos, Ive a spare rail here for car booting, if you want it- its yours. Lodger left it behind & im going to freecycle it if I cant offload it onto a DFW.
We trekked a bit for our car boot, went out west ( quite far) but it was very busy, loads of buyers & selllers, we got the recommendation off off the car boot/ ebay board. Cant remember where It was though now
:beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.
Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind
This Ive come to know...
So if you agree have a drink with me, raise your glasses for a toast :beer:0 -
You could try out ciao.co.uk as well?
You get paid for surveys and you also make a bit of money writing reviews and checking out other people's reviews as well. I have started doing this and ok it's not a lot of money but it's quite interesting and they all seem a friendly bunch.Bank Balance: In the black for the moment.

I had never read the Matched Betting thread on here until two weeks ago - now look at my signature!
Have a look at the newbies guide - it's not gambling, as long as you follow the instructions to the letter then it really is a risk free way of making quite a bit of money :TDebt at Highest: £11,630.10 (May 2006) Debt now: £0.00 !!!!Married to the man of my dreams :A - Sat 2nd June 20070 -
LookingAhead - can you give me any info on making money reading other peoples reviews on Ciao?
I already do their surveys and have written a couple of reviews myself - I hadn't seen anything about reading other peoples though so any info you can provide would be gratefully received!
