Offbeat Ways to Make Money

We’ve all heard people’s claims that they were able to get rich quick by employing one program or the next. These money making schemes typically involve some sort of enrollment fee and usually involve watching videos or listening audio recordings. Rather than invest all that time and money into learning how to get rich, why not try a few of these offbeat gigs on for size? Not only will you earn money, you’ll also have a whole lot of fun doing it. Here are a few of the most lucrative offbeat ways to make money online:

1. Visit theme parks and rate your experience. Coaster lovers can enjoy a day in their favorite park free of charge by writing an honest review of a ride or attraction. I recently did this at both Walt Disney World and Busch Gardens. Theme Park Tourist is one site on the lookout for fresh content and reviews.
2. Sell your hair. The Hair Trader allows you to post free ads that contain pictures and descriptions of the hair that you want to sell. Hair should be “virgin” which means that it’s never been chemically treated. You’ll also want to have at least ten inches of it to sell. It is used to make wigs and other types of hairpieces for people all over the world. You can make anywhere from a few hundred bucks to over $1,000 for your hair.
3. Participate in a clinical study. A lot of people are leery about taking pills or going on extreme diets. Let me just say this, not all clinical studies are that over-the-top. Rippe Life Institute in Orlando, FL holds studies all the time. They usually involve something like fiber or lactose and pay really well. You do have to follow the directions given to you and be willing to come back to the hospital for the entire duration of the study.
4. Mystery shop parking garages and valet services. Reality Based Group is one mystery shopping group that secret shops valet services. Other secret shopping companies have parking garage shops that you can request. Each shop pays a fee and you get to take advantage of free parking services wherever you go.
