Hi all,

I have a student loan on my head. And I am a foreign exchange student here in Canada. I am looking for quick ways to make 100-200$ a day or so. I need to manage my expenses along with tuition fees. So, can you guys please suggest me the ways to make $100 fast or daily online?

    1: this is a UK site. It's unclear if you are a Canadian in the UK, or a citizen of somewhere else in Canada.


    2: there is no fast or daily way to make $1000 online (unless the dollars you're referring to are a denomination of one of the many failing or failed states)

    Keep dreaming or get a part time job to supplement studying like all students do.

    Why did you move to Canada (from wherever) if you could not raise/plan enough money/funding to live off comfortably?


    That point aside, the default suggestion is to get a job. An entry-level one may well touch $100 a day. If you have specialised skills then $200 a day may be achievable but very rare (I reckon the likes of electricians, garage workers, plumbers or truck drivers MAY earn closer to that depending on how their industry is going).


    Aside from that, I would also like to know what jobs could make $50 a day, let alone $100-$1000! I don't think they exist, and if they do, anyone in the know wouldn't tell other people...


    PS, do you require/have a permit to work in the country?

    A 'little extra money' usually means a few pounds (or dollars). You're dreaming if you think there is anything out there paying the sort of money you want.

    Ever written an app or similar? That could be a way to speedy income if it is good and takes off.
    Googling on your question might have been both quicker and easier, if you're only after simple facts rather than opinions!

    I accidentally put up an extra zero there. I know there are no such things to make $1000 fast.

    Thanks for reaching out. I can't happen to have a physical job because that would interfere with my college hours.

    I did move to this country for better life opportunities and my support my family as well. I am really doing great in my college studies so I guess it was the right decision.

    Anyway, if there are simple online methods or gigs that I can try, I'd love them.

    Every student I know has a part time job pretty much so I still don’t understand how you can’t. There are no quick fix money making online schemes or we would all be doing it.

    You might be better on the 'up your income' board where people make a few pounds a week extra to supplement their regular income. That board is here;

    https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/forumdisplay.php?f=145

    However If you want a job, as most students have then this current board is better.
