How to Make Wicked Easy Money

If you want to start making money immediately, I have two words for you: focus groups. If you don't already know, a focus group is simply is group of people compiled by market research companies to talk with one another about consumer products. It may sound ridiculous, but I've been doing this for years! It requires little time or effort, no experience, and you usually make upwards of $50 an hour!

To get started, you can:

1. Go on craigslist (www.craigslist.org), select your region, and look under "jobs." Focus groups are usually in the "etc." or "part-time" sections. Simply respond to the ads via e-mail.

2. Look up "market research" in your local phonebook. Call the listed numbers, and ask them if they have any focus groups going on. If they do, they will usually ask you some questions to see if you qualify. Usually even if they don't have any right away, they will offer to put your information in their database for future groups.

3. Google "market research, [insert the name of your closest city/area]." Again, call these places.

Focus groups are such a great way to make easy money. All you do is talk aboout things are already know a lot about! And if you get really ambitous, you can also find yourself a few medical research studies (many are located in the craigslist sections already named or can be found through hospital websites). Many involve taking non-FDA approved medications, but there are also many which only involve interviews of normal, healthy subjects about health-related issues.
