What was the most fun thing you've done to make money?
« on: April 06, 2013, 11:18:33 am »
When my husband was in school we sold at the swap meet on weekends to make money for groceries. It was hard work - getting up at 4 am, loading the car, setting up tables and hawking our goods all day - often in sweltering weather. But it was great fun too -

Teach. I loved being a teacher and was always thankful that I was paid to do something I loved so much.

I had a great winning streak in Las Vegas.  I met a friend in Vegas for his fourtieth birthday and on the way to my room I stopped at a craps table and stayed there for three hours.  I walked away with about four thousand dollars!  Not a bad hall for three hours. I also bought gold coins at a low everytime I hit my monthly financial goals.  When my business started to slow down I sold the gold and made a tidy little profit.  It paid for the rest of the weekend's partying festivities. On a somewhat more realistic, and boring, note I like to recycle aluminum cans. I aim to collect two to three cans per day and take them to a recycling plant every six months.

My son and I did some arts and crafts fairs.  It was great working with him making things and then going to the fair, visiting with everybody that came by the booth.  My son was only 10 when we did this, and he was enthused when somebody bought one of his candy cane ornaments, or our hamburger cookies.  This is where he learned to make change.  Made a little money but mostly had hours and hours with my son. :wave:
