This is the fifth in a series of brief tidbits of ideas that will hopefully help you if you need to create more money in your life.

If you enjoy people, having a good time or just chatting, here are some ideas for you to make some extra money.

Performer. This could be anything from being a clown to a magician to a DJ. If you have a talent (e.g. harpist or singing) these are definitely marketable. If you have a little talent and a good sense of humor you can turn an act from musical to comedy (e.g. The Smother’s Brothers.)

Weekend bartender. This requires some education but can be quite profitable.

Elder companion. Services for the elderly are growing by leaps and bounds. Some families just need someone to stay with their family member for a few hours while they shop, go to the doctor, or have a much needed break.

Tour Guide: Most of us live in interesting areas because we live in areas with histories. Become an expert and conduct walking tours of a special area in your community.

Teach: Teach something you have a passion for. Your enthusiasm will gain you a great reputation and your teaching opportunities will grow.

Provide entertainment for birthday parties--for young and old. Research this subject and see what’s being done. Put a new twist on it and your phone will ring!

NOW HERE’S ONE OF MY FAVORITE FUNNIES:

So I said ‘Implants?’

She hit me.

More Money: How to Make More Money if You Are Good with a Computer

This is second in a series of brief tidbits of ideas that will hopefully help you if you need to create more money in your life.

This blog is focusing on “If You Are Good with a Computer.”

1. Teach. Many people need productivity and buy a nice shiny box of software from the office store, take it home, and can’t get through the first pages of instructions.
