16. Earn Money for Online Searches
This one seems too good to be true, and in a way, it is. You won’t make much money at all, but you can sign up for a service that will pay you a small sum for the online searches that you already do. QMee, Swagbucks, and Inbox Dollar are three websites that allow you to earn small amounts of money searching the internet.
You may earn money by viewing particular ads or providing information on topics that people are actively searching for at a certain point in time. At most, you’ll make a few pennies for each search, but over time, those pennies add up. Imagine that you do 10,000 searches per year. At a penny per search, that comes out to about $100 for really not doing anything that you don’t ordinarily do. Still, not the greatest way to earn money while unemployed, but a way nonetheless.
