That’s really all you need to get started. Once you get your feet wet you can branch into different things, but just get the basics down first.

26. Switch Your Savings and Checking Accounts.

Consider moving away from a traditional saving or checking account to one that pays interest. Even if you only earn a tiny percent of interest, it’s still better than nothing! Remember that compound interest adds up over time.

Another money making idea to consider is taking advantage of the paid bonus incentives banks pay for new accounts. Often you can make a cool $250 to $500 by opening a new checking or savings account and depositing your first twenty grand or making five or so automatic paycheck deposits.

27. Sell Your Photography and Videography.

Upload your photos and videos to places like Shutterstock or BigStockPhoto and sell licenses to use your work.  While these places do connect you to a lot of paying clients, generally speaking, amateur work isn’t accepted. You don’t have to be a pro per say, but you must know how to use a camera and edit photos/videos to appeal to buyers.

If you don’t want to deal with a middleman, you can always open up your own photography or videography website and sell rights and license on your own.  You can sell each item individually or offer a subscription service for say $10 a month for 10 downloads a month or $20 a month for unlimited downloads and so on. What you charge is entirely up to you. On the downside, you’ll need a large collection of content to get started or a few exceptionally stunning images and video.

28. Create a Mobile App or Game.

While you might not invent the next Angry Birds game, you can still make money producing smaller mobile apps. Everything from a beer app to a simple stick figure game, and beyond can be a great way to generate side income. After creating, you can charge per app install, per feature upgrade or simply allow advertisers to reach your users.
