    Start up your own PC repair business. Put fliers and posters up in local shops, go posting things through people's doors. Worked for me a couple of summers ago. :)

    £10 for hour 1, plus £6 for every half hour after that, plus parts and software etc of course. :)

    You could sell bowls door to door, or maybe some sort of Breast Enhancement product.

    BTW/ 10/hour is CHEAP!... you can get more than that if you know your stuff, For businesses (Network/Server/multi-station) work I charge $90/hr, and they happily pay as long as you know your stuff...

    some people don't take you serious if you're too cheap...

    He did say £10, which is basicly $19. But you have to know your stuff exceptionally well, and it's unknown as of yet how well Zach does know his stuff. So a low price would probably be a good idea.

    If I could be bothered to spell right, I would. You know, take the time to look up words I don't know.

    Napoleon, then. Yeesh.

    Since when has the internet ever been an essay contest?

    Web-design is sometimes a good one if your good at it.

    I used to do a bit of web-design and got a bit of cash.

    If you are good enough at it you can make like 1-2k off a single project.

    I have seen some 14 year old kids making like $500 a week in their spare evenings.

    I'd really apreciate details on this Fr4nk, over PM or in here. I've actually got the startup capital that would be required, so its something I could do, and I'd love that sorta income :eek:

    HI

    I second that.

    I tried to do this a few years back, but was priced out of the market.

    For example - i tried to sell a £800 computer, and the highest bid was £350....
