Everyone knows how hard it is to live on a student grant, so the majority of students now need some sort of extra finance to help them through their university years. Whilst the traditional tried and tested method of a few shifts at the local pub or club is still the preferred route for many to take, nowadays there are other ways of making a bit of money on the side.
At universities with medical schools attached there are often clinical trials which require willing (human) guinea pigs. These often pay good money, but obviously you personally have to weigh up if you want to take the risk with your own body becoming a test laboratory for some unproven pharmaceuticals.
For the more artistic amongst you, uploading videos to youtube can be a useful steady stream of income. If you can make the right content that finds an audience, then you can take a share of the ad revenue that is generated from clicks on your content, and a successful video can get a lot of clicks.
These are just a couple of ideas to hopefully get you thinking outside the box when it comes to finding the cash for the next rent cheque.
