Best ways to make some extra cash fast and free, that worked for you?
Main Post:
Hey everyone,
I’ve been looking for some realistic ways to make a bit of extra money without spending anything upfront. I know there are a lot of scams and too-good-to-be-true promises out there, so I’m hoping to hear from real people:
What actually worked for you when you needed to make some cash, without investing money first?
I’m open to ideas like side gigs, odd jobs, or even creative stuff you did online or offline. Thanks in advance.
Top Comment: First of all, I must say you should avoid dropshipping; it’s oversaturated, and you need a huge sales volume to make it work. Also, steer clear of the offers that promise 1000s for no investment from you. If something seems too good to be true, it probably is. I make money mostly from paid surveys and Upwork. Here’s a quick breakdown of what I do: EliteSurveySites: It’s not a survey provider, this site lists trusted, highest-paying panels. It helped me hit over $1000 last month. Just Google them, and you’ll find the best survey panels out there. Upwork: I offer website and app testing services here. It pays well, but you do need some skills and a bit of patience to build your profile. Clickworker: I do small tasks here and there. It’s not a lot, but I make about $5 to $6 per task. Give Honest Feedback to Startups: Just search Reddit or niche forums for terms like “need testers.” You can earn $10 - $15 per session by offering simple feedback. Most of these are free to start, and you can do them with little to no experience, but for Upwork, you need skills and some money in your pocket so that you can bid on projects.
