How to make money online as a student
As youths, when we get to a certain age, we start reasoning on how to make money of our own and stop relaying on our parents for money. We always dream of life were easy and fast money can be made. Dream of driving fancy cars and owning the latest gadget.
We surf the web looking for quick and easy money. Going through all kinds of things we see online. As a student, I have ventured into so many things from MMM to icharity to loom and so many more. They all work at the beginning, earning cool cash, and at a point they all fail.
They all fail because they work on a system whereby they get money from someone and give it to the other person. People flood in money, the owners of the platform gets their own share and use the rest to pay people that have been in the platform before you.
The circle goes on till it finally gets to your turn. When the system has so many people requesting for funds more than those actually putting in funds, the owners of the platform runs out of money to pay the people and run away with what they have. Only those that started early with the platform actually benefits from the platform.
I have tried so many get rich quick schemes online and have lost money in lots of them. Making money is actually taking a risk. If you are too afraid of losing money, you will not make money. Any legit platform will not give you money for free, and you will actually need to work for your money.
Be ready to move out of your comfort zone as a student, be ready to hustle, tale risk, invest and don’t fear losing money. Before you learn how to ride a bicycle properly you must fall. When you lose money don’t give up, Rome was not built in a day. Strive very hard, read motivational books and always be very ready to learn new things.
