If you know of any good internet scams that I can use to generate easy cash, I would also love to hear about that too! Even legitimate ones ;) . Keep in mind that I have a high school degree and am currently going to college - so all you awesome guys with jobs that involve flash can just know that you are better than me and not post.. because it will make me feel bad ;( .

Dude... I have a get rich scheme,!!!!

step one: Get a news paper!!

step two: Find a Job!!

step three: Spend little money work alot and save!

step four: Repeat as needed


Honestly, get rich schemes are just what they are: schemes, no one gets rich like that. Nothing is easy, you got to tuff it out by looking for a job!

Meh, I thought I would try my luck here first.... Maybe someone out there actually has a good job idea that I never would have thought to look into.. but believe me when I say I will use that as my back up plan. :thumb:

I was only half serious about the scheme :azn: And for any possible employers, I don't REALLY have A+ certification in wasting time... *cof

Well , okay if you are serious about that, start sending in aplication for interneships. Get a mighty fine portfolio together with MANY kinds of work and Apply non-stop! Also, check around your campus for that kind of work, talk to teachers and whatnot. But here, we get the odd person who wants a project done (EXTREMLY Rare) trust me on this one. And there people jump on that like poop on velocro.

You know what i did for money awhile back.

I put up a sign in the middel of the coolsingel in rotterdam. And it sayed 1 hug for 1 euro.

The first time i did it i only got about 5 euro.
The second time I did it 56 euro.

And that's allot of money. There are allot of needy people out there and i readdy to hug them for 1 euro.

siriously i got round for a copple of weeks n just doing that. But then finally the cops put me out of bisness because of a silly rule or something. But i was doing it 4 8 weeks. And I made about 2500 euro. You could try that.

Regarding the link I posted the site indicates if the employer sponsors visas for international applicants. As an employer you can do the same if thats any help. I was studing at Oxford when I found the site and found it interesting.
