Friend of mine in SoCal got let go by Edison and started a pet-sitting service for people who go on vacation and don't want to board their animals (calls herself the "Pet Nanny"). She takes care of dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, iguanas, snakes and fish; got more business than she can handle and loves being her own boss. She also had absolutely no experience when she started.

legal only ways? lol jk....learn to weld and make good products. Go to a wrecker, load up with some parts and start fabbing up suspension lift/lowering kits to sell on ebay.

yah. but the equipment is expensive. it is very time consuming and if i screw up i am responsible for the damage to their car and possible injuries. it is a great idea but i cant afford (literally) to get sued

my side business has always been fixing stuff... wether its a car, appliance, house... whatever- i think the best money i ever made was 200 dollars for about 3 hours of work replacing the inner and outer tie rods on my friend's 97 f150... the outer tie rod separated in the parking lot at work... i told him it was a good thing it didnt separate going down the interstate- it could have killed him... as ive said before... drive trane parts may strand you but suspension parts can kill you... actually i think im going to make that my signature

Easy money is a tough one. I'd love to figure out a way too. Keep looking at buying/fixing/selling cars and trucks, but everyone wants too much money for something that needs work, and the sales market flat out sucks right now in my area, so purchase price would need to be VERY low for it to work. Also keep wanting to try the same with antique tractors, but nobody wants to let go of them without a handful of gold either, no matter how rusty they are. If I figure something out I'll let you know.

Bud I hate to break your bubble but anyone who seriously makes easy money isn't gonna let others in on the whole secret
Thats just how it works
personally I'd rather bust my a$$ and do something worthiwhile than do something stupid just because it was easy.
