Making money in college

<p>I have planed to apply what i learn in my college in real life.Like i will go to firms in my vocations i will try my best to improve technical equipments etc.In this my abilities will improve.If i will successful in this process i will got money from industialist.
Please criticize my idea.
Is it practicable?</p>

<p>No it's not. Most people work at jobs that have nothing to do with their college major. Plus, aren't we talking about making money IN college, not after?</p>

<p>If what laserprecision suggests in finding a tutoring job doesn't work out, you could always check to see if your college has a tutoring program designed to help high school students with their academics. Many colleges, such as Temple University, have such programs. If you attend a college whose campus is in a major urban center this method is an extremely viable option.</p>

<p>I've actually thought of starting my own ebay business once I get to college. I plan to sell watches, and I already found a site that sells authentic watches for 70-90% off (if you meet the minimum order requirement).</p>

<p>thanks for the heads up laserprecision. I'm pretty sure i would need a bachelors/masters to tutor through a high school (am I right on this?). I am just fluent on spanish (1st language) and decent at math... As far as that craiglist, I think I could do something like that and just advertise in the newspaper, since they don't have that in my area, I think.</p>

<p>I will check it out, and see how I can do it. My mom tutored spanish also a couple of years ago (she has a teaching degree though) and has plenty of exercises and all of that stuff, so I think I could really help people out and is a good-paying job to save up for college expenses, thanks!.</p>

<p>playing poker online would be a good idea, but i think they passed a law and are now taking internet poker down in september so thats pretty much done.</p>

<p>although you could easily make a couple grand a month off internet poker.</p>

<p>You could learn some tax accounting and do people's taxes for a fee....start with your professors.</p>

<p>Rijeos, most highschools have unofficial lists of tutors (normally filled with previous smart students), so you wouldn't need any type of official credentials for that. One key thing you shouldn't overlook is hispanics trying to learn english, it's a rather large market.</p>

<p>Hye, wholesale is a very very hit-or-miss market. I'd do a lot of research before jumping in. The eBay / paypal selling process has many hidden dangers. I've dabbled in it for a while, PM me with any questions.</p>

<p>backfire, online poker is still alive and kicking. a lot of sites have come up with new deposit methods. if you're serious about it, create a foreign bank account. but remember, the HUGE majority of people lose money on online poker. I've been pretty lucky so far...</p>

<p>Laserprecision, I have done ebay before, selling ipods. I came out even in about a month, but back then, I wasn't taking it very seriously; I also quit early because my parents wouldn't stop nagging me about it. </p>

<p>I have researched the ebay market for watches, and have found 2 brands of watches that sell especially well when compared to how cheap I can get them.</p>

<p>If you want to SAT tutor, do NOT undersell yourself. Coming with a 1600 and 2400, my Honors College advisor decided to help pimp me out. I charged my first student 20 an hour for 4 hours a week. She came in with a 2060 or 90 and I took her to 2290 with a 150 point jump in CR, 20 in W and change in Math. </p>

<p>Her parents did the word of mouth game and the next student came in with a 2020. She got my elevated fees of 30. She didn't mind. I kept the rates constant. But I'm tired of the pimping process. I got job offers from Kaplan and PReview (passed the final audition phases of both). Are those better bets (consistent as well as money making) then self gaming?</p>
