The majority of college students who have a car don't know how to make minor repairs on their own or how to deal with sudden situations that might face them. If you do, you're in luck. Consider making a small investment in tools and supplies and then advertise for reasonably-priced onsite repairs and maintenance work like oil changes.

Time Management
As we all know how students
are enthusiast and energetic when it comes to trying and
exploring new situations. When students start making extra income through what
they enjoy the most such as; cooking, photographing, teaching and drawing, they
become more eager to make more and more money.
Where can they go wrong? Lets
keep in mind that those students have other responsibilities like
studying, assignments, home duties family obligations. Getting into the
"money making" field, it will affect the students time management
regarding all the duties and tasks they have.
My advice to you is, you still
have time to become one of those people who have millions in their bank
accounts. Take the advantage of being a student but it does not mean that you
cannot make money, time management is important.

Cover Your Car with Advertisements
Have
you been driving down the road and suddenly seen a car driven by plastered in
ads for potato chips or an
energy drink? Maybe you thought the car belonged to an employee with the
company. But a number of advertising firms will actually pay drivers to have
their own cars covered with ads.
Depending on the firm, the length of the promotion and your
region, you can be paid between $400 and $900 per month to serve as a moving
billboard. Some companies will even provide you with a car to drive, free of
charge. All you have to do is sign up on the company's Web site, filling in
basic demographic information. Then, if a specific advertiser decides they want
to target your particular demographic, they'll select you for a promotion.
Promotions last from a few months to years, so the extra income could add up to
a nice sum.
You'll be required to drive a certain number of miles per month
to fulfill your contract, and you'll have to set aside four to eight hours for
your car to be wrapped at the beginning of each promotion. Once the ads are
removed, your car will be undamaged by the process.

5 things that students should know about money
Before we start discussing how to earn some money,
probably we should mention ways of how to save money or in other words how to
not lose money. Since the start of university is the first step to financial
independence, here are five things that one new student need to know about
money.
1. Banks are not your friends
Don`t waste money for nothing – if you've already got a smartphone, or can get hold of one from a sibling who is upgrading, you can save by switching to a sim-only tariff. You can get free call minutes, unlimited texts and 500MB of data for less than £20 a month from almost any mobile company.
4. …and travel bills also
One of the biggest surprises students report is how much they have to pay on trains, buses and tubes. So get a 16-25 Railcard – it costs £28 for one year, or £65 for three, and gives you a third off UK rail fares. Sadly, NatWest has made it harder to get one for free on its student account… or take the bus – check Megabus for low-cost deals.
5. Pre-loading to save on a bar cost
1. Banks are not your friends
Often bank
staffs’ primary aim is to sell you their products,
and they will only do it from their own, usually poor range. Often the person
you're talking to is paid based on how many things they can tie you into. Ask
yourself: do you want to be the loyal customer whose business is taken for
granted, or the customer whose business is hard won with better deals? Do your
own research before getting any financial product. Ask yourself whether you
need it, is it worth it, and have you checked whether it's the best deal on the
market.
2. Be boring - stick with the monthly budget
2. Be boring - stick with the monthly budget
Yes, it's boring, but if you're going to live on the money you've got, and
afford a social life too, you need to learn to budget. Make a weekly or monthly
budget and stick to it. Try using an online student budget calculator, such as
the one on the Ucas website, which allows you to key in all your income and
outgoings. Other tips:
- Try not to use your debit card to pay for things. It's easier to keep track if you pay cash. When going out drinking, only take with you the amount you're happy to spend that night, and no plastic cards.
- Before you buy something, ask yourself: Do I really need it? Can I afford it? Can I get it cheaper elsewhere? If any one answer is no, think again.
- Don't use cash machines that charge for withdrawals. Find out which ATMs charge and which don't.

5. Pre-loading to save on a bar cost
We're not endorsing this, but we can't deny that it`s “profitable”. Pre-loading
is about buying cheap alcohol from the supermarket or off-licence and drinking
it at home before you hit the pub/club. "Drinking while getting ready with
your mates might seem normal, but drinking a lot of alcohol before you go out
could make your night take a different direction from what you've all got
planned..you might be
too ill to get in the taxi or even
worse – in the club!
