I read an article on Wired.com a guy sold his fate to investors at $1 a share. He divided himself to 100,000 shares and set initial public price of $1 a share.
In the next 12 days his friends already bought 930 shares and he ended up with $930 in just 12 days.
Mike Merill is the name of the guy who sold his fate, he was not able to make decision for himself.
It was upto the shareholders to decide if he should marry, get engaged even if he wanted to become a vegetarian it was upto the shareholders to decide.
Mike Merill has become a become a big asset to his investors and in the case of death a huge amount of money if going to be divided to his shareholders.
His share price raised from $1 a share to $20 share price.
Are willing to sell your fate to investors?

Medical students need field practical to test their knowledge. Medical schools hire fake patients, so that medical students can be able to examine them without them knowing if they are fake.

7. House Sitting
There is baby sitting and then it went to looking after old people, now it’s house sitting.
House sitting is for those who want their house to be looked after during the day while they are at work.
Maybe they traveled and they want their house to be watched on their behalf.
House sitting is way more fun if you are the type of person who loves quiet places.
There are several websites like Thumbtack they have professional for everything. All you have to do is go and submit your profile and your qualifications.
Once you get accepted a house sitter makes $45 a day just for sitting and idling around.
What are you waiting for?It is a good way to make money if you don’t mind being lonely.
8. Get Paid To Dog Sit
Are you a fan of dogs?
I love dogs, especially puppies they are soo cute.
Some puppy/dog owners travel and they leave their dogs at home very lonely.
Making money by dog sitting is the best work I have ever work on. Some dog owners can be worked up and have a busy schedule and that’s when websites like Rover.com come in.
They are a rescuer to dog owners, all they have to do is hire a dog sitter.
A dog sitter costs $25 for like 45 minutes while overnight dog sitting can cost roughly $75-$85.
I did participate as a dog sitter in a nearby home it is a good way to make money quick but if you are not a dog lover the job is not for you.
You can’t fake your feelings with animals, they sense how you feel towards them and you gonna end up having a disastrous day.
9. Start A Blog
I know this is not a weird way to make money but it has been a life changing for me. I started my blog a year ago I have been working on building it ever since.
There are successful bloggers who started like 5 years ago and they are making over $$20,000 a month just from their blog.
I was inspired by Michelle from Making sense of cents, when I read her yearly income it motivated me and told myself I can reach that one day.
Having a blog does not necessarily mean you have to invest big, it only cost $2.95/* with Bluehost. How expensive can it be?
A blog need investment in content and marketing those are the key things to success.

10. Do You Love Sleeping?Get Paid Doing It!
Who doesn’t love sleeping?Sounds interesting right? So basically how this works is people study your sleep.
You are supposed to sleep for almost 80 days, did you read that correctly? yes! 80 days.
All you have to do is stay on bed, shower go to the loo. I don’t really know how it exactly works.
It can pay very well upto $20,000 a month. If you get accepted to the NASA study you can make roughly $1,000-$2,000 weekly.
In a month that’s almost $5,000 just by staying in bed and let the experts examine your sleep.
No walking, nor seeing sunlight or doing any kind of activity you are just on your bed!. I don’t think I can handle such a study.
If you are a sleep lover and like lazying around this is the most appropriate job for you.
