Default Some Other Thoughts About......

"just making some money"...I have been involved in some recent discussions on another board about things that students, (and others), could do to make some "ready cash" during the summer...We discussed the "painting numbers on the curb" idea and the "detailing cars" deal...I have some personal knowledge of these things!...I knew a man in Dallas who made $3000 in one month painting house numbers on curbs!...This is "very" viable and if you have transportation, "motivation" and have no physical limitations you can make a good buck with this!...The same goes for the "detailing cars" thing...If you have a little "gumption" and can talk to people, you can make some "real" money here!...There are several persons in the DFW area who are really "cleaning up" with this!...(Please excuse the pun!)...

Geez!...I am beginning to sound like Don Alm!...But that's O.K., there is absolutely no doubt in my mind that Don knows what he is talking about!...He has "been there, done that" with "most" of these things!...

In my own humble opinion, what stops "most" people from ever making any "real" money with this stuff is the fact that most all of them require "WORK!"....

Just the thoughts of one old man who has come back, (literally), from the dead!........Rooster
