How are you making extra $ with your computer?

Thursday, May 12, 2005 by RomanDA | Discussion: Community

I'm curious as to how many people here are making part time $ with your pc.

OK i don't want to know if your selling your body, either for sex or science.
I also don't want to know that you work 5 jobs hauling trash.

I want to know how you are using your computer to make extra $ ?

Do you do part-time web design like i do?
Do you sell skins? Do you run an eBay store?
Do you run Porn Sites (if so, please provide login/pw for me to verify).
Do you spam people and make money that way?
Do you use Phishing to get peoples credit cards (if so please provide me with your name/address/phone # so i can send the police there with a special gift JUST FOR YOU!).
Or are you doing something totally new?

I'm sure there are a lot of people here that would love to know how people are making extra $.

As for me, as I stated above, i do part time web design, i have about 10-12 customers that i do work for all the time.
I also do web hosting as a reseller, and that works pretty good. I have one customer who's hosting fee covers all my costs, and 12 others that i basically host for no money out of my pocket, and make a fair bit of $ from them. I love the hosting part, as i don't really have to do anything to make $. Now if i could get about 100 clients id be really happy.

I see signs posted on telephone poles all the time saying I can make $1000 a day from my home computer. Think I should check it out? Anybody that advertises on utility poles has to be on the up-and-up, right?

I spend more than I take in... in fact, I don't take in anything.
LOL

What I am trying to do is show a company that I have some 'diamond in the ruff' skills by showing them my websites and work.

So I guess that is how I am making money... by looking for work so that I can make money.
