    Started a basic computer class for seniors. Teaching them how to turn on a computer and get online. I help them set up a gmail or hotmail acct. Skype. Things like that.

    I usually get about $20 per person. First week i had 5 people signed up. Its been about 6 months now i guess. Tuesdays and thursdays. Tonight from 6-7 I'll have anywhere from 15-20 ppl in class. The Sr. center lets me use their conference room. Takes me 30 mins to set up, 1 hour to teach, 30 mins to take down. 2 hours, $300-$400. Cant beat that.

    If you have direct deposit with your paycheck, open a savings account & have a portion of your check automatically put into savings. You'll never miss it.

    I am also a college student studying nursing. I pay for my truck and schooling. I don't do drugs (big $$ eater), nor do I go out clubbing or bar hopping. I work part time as a room service worker at a hotel. I save my money for my truck and my girlfriend. I also landscape part time, easy money, horrible and shitty job.

    I fix computers on the side, usually for friends and family (which is good for free food) sometimes for co-workers and such, which is usually good for cash. If I charge half of what those "techs" charge at geek squad, I still make a killing...Not to mention I actually fix the problem.

    I'm a full time hero (lolz), and charge crazy college kids $20 to stick an IV in their arm after a wild night of drinking. i kid, but i do draw blood as my part time job...that, and I'm pretty good at blackjack...make atleast $150-$300 a week off that..buy cheap broken smartphones, replace everything to make them fully functional, and sell them for whatever they go on ebay...i don't do this for a living, sometimes i just find a silly kid on craigslist selling iphones/androids with broken screens for as little as $30...so don't ask for a phone... :)
