Getting Paid for your Opinion

This one is mainly aimed at students who want to make an extra bit of cash which allows you to procrastinate from doing your essay due tomorrow and instead roam around the library......

Back when I was in my first year, I was wandering the corridors of my library and found a piece of paper pinned up in the men's toilet reading "Earn £10 for 45 minutes of your time" and instantly I was like yes please how hard could it be?

After a quick email to the person in charge, the following Monday there I was, being asked some random questions about mortgages for someone's PhD project. 35 minutes later (yes we finished early) I was walking back to the library to try and find some more of these, with £10 in my pocket.

For the last 3 years, I've done countless of these and earned hundreds of pounds and amazon vouchers because of it. So next time you're bored and meant to be studying, go check the toilets, especially the cubicles, any common spaces and also in local pubs for any easy money makers!

Net worth tracking

Ever since I read ‘Secrets of a millionaire mind’ I was inspired to track my net worth monthly and meticulously budget each month. Net worth simply means the value of everything you own of value minus anything you owe. I’ve found that, since I’ve started recording it monthly, it has been increasing every month. I like to think that, every time I make a financial decision, my subconscious mind is saying ‘remember what the calculations will add up to on the first of the month.’ Here is the link to the sheet I use to track my net worth : http://www.millionairemindbook.com/media/NetWorthTrackingBookBonus.pdf In a fortnights time I’ll tell you about a book that changed my perception on making money...

New Year, Old Tricks!

It's finally a New Year after a testing 2020 but if it taught me one thing, it was that commerce is quickly moving online and as such this will the way forward for the next few years. But more on this in a later blog... New Year, Old Tricks. At the end of 2020, I came across a company called UniTaskr who will pay you for doing certain online jobs but their main objective is helping with social media 'shout outs'. After a quick check to see if your social media passes their requirements, they give you some content to post on your Instagram and then 24 hours later you send them the results and they send you some easy cash! Here was an example I took part in promoting Spotify: And here was the payment: Some may say £6 isn't much and I agree with you but £6 for doing nothing but 5 minutes work whilst watching Nexflix that can pay for my next 2 meal deals from Tesco, I'm not complaining! If you want to make some easy cash definitely check Uni...

Pi Crypto

Remember the craze of bitcoin at the back end of 2017 when a single coin was worth $18,000? Well, only 4 years prior, a bitcoin was worth a mere $123 in October of 2013. Imagine if you had bought a bitcoin for just over $100 and in a few years it was worth 180 times that. Now go a step further and ask yourself what if that bitcoin you paid $100 for, could be free to acquire and that all you needed was an app. Let me introduce you to Pi. No, not the mathematical constant 3.14... or just a badly spelt version of a yummy dessert. Pi is a new version of cryptocurrency aimed at using social circles to not leave people out of the next big thing and also to make cryptocurrency mining more accessible and cheaper. to earn Pi, all you have to do is log onto the app every 24 hours and press mine. Currently Pi, as a currency. is worth virtually nothing but everything starts off that way and in 5 years time even if 1 Pi is worth 10p, I would at this very moment have £250 worth of Pi with...
