    Please elaborate. How does writing a blog make you money?

    If you have adverts on your blog then you can get paid when someone clicks on that advert (but there are checks in place to make sure you don#'t click on your own ads)

    The same thing can be setup on YouTube if you have any videos that might be of interest to other people. Some of the most bizarre things can get huge numbers of hits. One I shot of a lorry fire on the way home from work has got over 350,000 hits and has ads on it so any clicks earn money.

    Overall I'm getting £60-£90 per month from ads so not masses of money but once the hard work is done much of it is self sustaining.
    Remember the saying: if it looks too good to be true it almost certainly is.

    Set up a cleaning, ironing and general odd jobs business - Doing the things that people dont like doing or just dont have the time to do. For the cost of using your ome printer, youre set up....

    got to be worth a puntfor zero set up costs....
    So little tolerance for those who's ignorance will be their downfall....

    Dog walking, if you're experienced and confident with them. Now's quite a good time, as people may be back to work, or off on holidays. My brother has two lively, strong dogs. While he's away my mum will house-sit for them, but can't walk them - so if there was a card in a local shop window, I know he'd buy that service!
    Reason for edit? Can spell, can't type!
