10>Cover Your Car with Advertisements                                                  Have you been driving down the road and suddenly seen a car drive by plastered in ads for potato chips or an energy drink? Maybe you thought the car belonged to an employee with the company. But a number of advertising firms will actually pay drivers to have their own cars covered with ads.Depending on the firm, the length of the promotion and your region, you can be paid between $400 and $900 per month to serve as a moving billboard. Some companies will even provide you with a car to drive, free of charge. All you have to do is sign up on the company's Web site, filling in basic demographic information [source: Autowrapped, Free Car Media]. Then, if a specific advertiser decides they want to target your particular demographic, they'll select you for a promotion. Promoti...

1.  Website Building If the internet is a country, then websites are like real estates. I’m hoping by now you have a general understanding that real estates are valuable in the physical world – digital real estates work the same way. By building a website, you’re creating your own plot of online “land.” You can fill this land with whatever you want, but you have to promote it through social media (and anywhere else you can think of) for this to be successful. When you build traffic to your land, you can sell people whatever you have to offer. In order to build a website, you need a host (i.e GoDaddy ), a template (i.e  WordPress ), and content. The first two parts are easy to find, and content is only as difficult as you make it. You can post blogs, items for sale, pictures, videos, or whatever you want. Opening up your own website gives you the potential to make money from the avenues I’m going to mention. 2. B2B Marketing An online business model I love is utiliz...

There are over 60,000 meteorite specimens known to scientists but only 132 of them come from Mars, which is why getting Martian rocks is not a cheap purcha...

Emirates Palace, Abu Dhabi     Costing approximately $3 billion to build, Emirates Palace has 394 rooms and suites, 40 meeting and conference rooms, a white sand beach, a myriad of pools and fountains, a sumptuous spa, marble imported from 13 different countries and over 1,000 crystal chandeliers.

Royalty, or those who want to feel like it, can luxuriate in one of the many palace suites, all with lavish surroundings that would befit a Sultan of old yet with enough modern amenities to please today’s top tycoons.   2.

10.  Being Really, Really Good at World of Warcraft Though difficult, the theory behind turning “I play video games a lot” into a “I have a lucrative career” is almost disappointing in its simplicity: players amass huge amounts of Gold (in-game currency), and then strike up deals with people to exchange the Gold for real-life money, sometimes through a Paypal account and sometimes with their own websites. Since some of the most fun parts of the game (buying sweet weapons and dragons to ride on) cost massive amounts of Gold and, since WoW players are already used to paying for their fun (a subscription costs $15 a month), finding buyers isn’t that hard. An alternative is character building, where players will get a character to “Max Level” and then sell that character to other players . “Max Level” is considered by many to be the true start of the game, with the first few hundred hours of play nothing but tedious grinding. If your response to this is “doesn’t the ...
