Lots of people have suggestions on getting more out of your money in these trying financial times: set a budget, cut back on the coffee, walk to work, etc. Now, I am in no way saying those things aren’t good to do, but what if you just want to try making a quick $30 right now? Today! Within 24 hours; how could you do that? Well, here are some ideas to get you thinking and, hopefully, to get you started.

• Signup For a PTR or PTC
  PTR’s (Paid To Read) or PTC’s (Paid To Click) are online opportunities that pay you to read e-mail and/or read your e-mail and go to a website. There is a way to make $30 within 24 hours with a PTR (e-mail me for that tutorial). While most won’t make mega-bucks with this, working with them consistently can bring in a nice few bucks at the end of the month when it’s time to cash out.

• Sell Half of Last Season’s Wardrobe on eBay
  Yes, you have probably heard this before. The key to this suggestion is: do not find something that is old to you, but rather gently worn. If you do a little research on sold second-hand items on eBay, it becomes quickly obvious that items which are used but in good condition sell for more than their counterparts that are blatantly second-hand. With so many people trying to save, let it be a win-win situation for you and the buyer. Plus, good items help your feedback!

• Join an IFW Network
  What is an IFW network? IFW stands for “Incentivized Freebie Website”. In other words, you sign up, try offers that you normally would try anyhow, and get paid for trying these offers. When you do IFW’s through a network of users, those users will pay you for “going green” (a term in the freebie world which means completing “x” amount of offers on a given site).
  A portion of the Money Blog Online website is dedicated to IFW’s and IFW training. You can find it at: www.moneyblogonline.com/ifw
