Car Boot / Flea Market

A nice little income generator is car boot / yard sale / flea market trading. You can begin this by sorting out all the items in the house that you no longer want. Think what prices you would like for each then pack them ready for sale day.

When you arrive at the sale site, park the car. Then lay a rug on the ground or assemble a collapsible table. Arrange your goods. You may want to leave items such as books in the boxes. Keep small items in the centre of the display where it is easy to keep an eye on them.

Have the money in pockets or money belt. That is, keep it on your person. Expect buyers to haggle. Have in mind a rock bottom price for each item.

Sales like this can be as regular as you want. It is just a matter of seeking out locations and times. When you have sold everything from home you will find that there are places where you can obtain goods. Perhaps you would like to specialise.

It is possible to generate a good regular income or a casual now and then injection of cash from this business.

Leaflet Distribution

A quick money making idea is leaflet distribution. It doesn’t pay very much but you are usually paid in cash for each job you undertake. So if you need a bit of cash to pay a few bills or to start financing a more regular business then this could be something for you.

Begin by finding out the going rate in your locality. It is usual to be quoted per 1000 although occasionally it will be by the hour.

Then discover who needs leaflets delivered. Among these will be: Estate Agents (Real Estate), eating places such as Burger King and stores which advertise sales. It is just a case of getting out there and asking. Keep your eyes open for opportunities. Sometimes you will find them listed in the Classified Ads of the local newspaper.

You may decide that this is just a short term casual income. In that case you will find it works very well. If you want to build a business in this area then be reliable and then farm the leaflets and brochures out to others to deliver. You will find plenty of youngsters who would love a little income. If you take this option you will need to keep a check on your distributors to make sure that the items are delivered correctly.

My introduction

I am hoping to gather together here in one place as many ideas about becoming wealthy as possible. Dip in and see what works for you.

The money making ideas will range from the small extra cash in your pocket this week to large ongoing businesses which will set you up for life.

All the ideas for becoming wealthy though have in common the fact that you will be working for yourself. This is all about self employment. It also means choice. Choice of task, choice of hours, choice of lifestyle.

I have been working in this way for some years now. I choose what I undertake and I choose when I do it. Everything has to fit in well with my life. I also need to get some satisfaction from each venture (besides the income).

I have also taught business studies from the basics up to MBA programmes.

If you have any ideas you would like to share please fee free to describe them fully in the comment section.
