Who wants to make some extra money?!

There are lots of ways to make some extra money during the day. And you can do it without quitting your day job.

Here are just a few genius ideas to help you make this happen.

Index Funds and Stocks

Index funds are packages of stocks which are designed to track a single index, like the S&P 500, for example. When you buy a share of index funds, you are actually purchasing a portfolio that contains bits of shares of every stock in that index. When an index increases in value, so do the shares of your index fund.

To learn more about strategic index fund investing, you may want to look into the stochastic oscillator strategy.

Write a Blog

The internet really has created a world of opportunity. Everyone now has the chance to share their knowledge, creativity, and point of view. And you can monetize it all!

Learn how to start a blog of your own to generate income streams from affiliate marketing, brand collaboration, selling ad space, sponsored posts, and so much more.

Turn Your Hobby into a Business

What do you love to do in your spare time? Can you find a way to turn it into a side business?

If you happen to be a brilliant cook,  why not look into starting a weekend class so you can teach other people your skills? If you have experience gardening, you can start selling flowers and herbs.
