We’re pretty sure that if you caught the title of this article, you can totally relate. Here’s the good news: If you have some old electronics lying around your house, they may just be as good as money in the bank.

Go with Gazelle. A very popular way to make money from used tech items is to visit the website Gazelle.

How To Cash In On Others Scrap Metal

I know you are probably wondering why anybody would want to use scrap metal as their way of life and that is why I am writing this. Most people just assume that the junk they have around their house is worthless, however, that is not the case. If you take all the scrap metal that you have in and around your home you will start to see it all add up. Now, I am not saying that you need to hurry and clean around your house but what you should do it cash in on other people’s scrap metal instead.

Most people have junk just lying around their house, so if you can talk them into paying you a small amount to take the scrap metal out of there, then you can make a good amount of money. The reason I tell you that you need to ask people to pay you a small fee is so that they don’t realize what they are giving away. I know that most people won’t bother taking their scrap metal to a recycling company but you don’t want them waiting around and thinking about it since this is how you will make money. Below you will see some of the best thing to get that will yield a lot of scrap metal and make you a lot of money.

How To Make Money Doing Computer Cleanups

Did you know that you can make money doing computer cleanups? This is a very lucrative business because the majority of people who own computers don’t know much about them, and most do not know how to do a cleanup correctly. A lot of computer owners think that their computer cleans itself, but, unfortunately, that is just not the case.

The best way to make money doing small computer cleanups is to start off with basic software that cleans the computer and then runs the already installed Windows software. Usually, this will take you about an hour to do and in that time you can easily make $50. This is not very hard work either; all you need to do is find the clients that you will do this for.

How To Make Extra Money On Craigslist

What is Craigslist?

By now you have probably heard of Craigslist, right? Craigslist is a website which caters to the entire world. The best part about Craigslist is that you can sell anything you want and it doesn’t cost you a cent. Think about it, where else can you do this very same thing?

How can I make money using Craigslist?

Now, if you want to make extra money on Craigslist, then it is imperative that you find a few items around your home to list. What you should do is list items for less than what you think they are worth. By doing this you can get people to buy your items just for the sake of it as opposed to waiting around until somebody actually needs what you have to offer. What I highly recommend is that you stay away from electronics as they are difficult to sell and usually are a big hassle to deal with.

How To Make Money By Peer To Peer Lending

What is peer to peer lending?

Have you ever heard of peer to peer lending? Peer to peer lending is where you lend money to another person. The benefit of doing this is that you will get the interest payment sent to you as opposed to simply putting your money in the bank. Think about it, if you make a lousy .5% by saving money at the bank and you can make 6-9% by lending money to other people, which one would you choose? My guess is that you would rather make the 6-9% and that is why you need to participate in peer to peer lending.
