Ideas for Making Extra Money

Host a Gold Party. Where people sell back their unwanted gold for cash, and as the host you get a percentage of the proceeds.

My sister just told me about something called LiveOps. It stands for live operators, I guess. You know when you see those infomercials on TV? Live Ops are the people who answer the phone and take your information (kind of scary, huh?). The nice thing about it is that you set your own hours and work from home, and I think you get paid weekly. I haven't had a chance to look into it myself but maybe it could help you. I think the website is "liveops.com". good luck!

put some items on craigslist. I'm buying something off of it this weekend and thinking about putting some things of my own on it. It is also a great place to get Christmas presents and the such for cheap. If the kids need anything too! Good luck and God Bless!

Sell stuff on craigslist.
Take stuff your kids have outgrown and sell to resale shop.
Babysit for friends.
Clean houses when DH is not working.

Have you thought about home health care? With a background as a nurse, it should be an easy job for you.

I'm not sure if I can help or not. I have an author I represent and she has a new product she's debuting at a great rate during the month of September. It's very unique and I have a huge list of businesses to approach and only a month to do it. We live in the same general area (I think) and I'd love to partner with someone on this. It would certainly be more fun and we could cover more ground. One of the main target markets is hospitals (for gift shop sales) and medical offices (for employee rewards/recognition and possibly distribution to patients, depending on the specialty) and I thought your background could be very helpful there. It's a commission deal, but this is something businesses would buy in bulk, so it adds up pretty quickly.

If you'd like to know more, I'll be happy to elaborate. I'm a SAHM, too, with school-age kids and a pre-schooler. I only work while they are at school, if that makes a difference to you. This kind of borders on "direct sales," but you mentioned "selling things," so I wasn't sure if I should reply or not. If this is something you could/would do to earn quick money on a short-term basis, let me know. Thanks - L.

A lot of gals make money quick by doing cleaning for people. Also, you could think about working contingent as a nurse if your credentials are up to date, or getting with a homecare agency.

I don't know about fast money but I got a great part time job immediately through Kelly Services. Love this job!
