6 ways every woman can make extra cash in this recession

With the growing economic crisis and lack of job opportunities currently ravaging the country, it’s advisable that anyone who has the intention of living a comfortable life now and in the coming years, has something they can always fall back on when all else fails.

This one’s for the ladies who still believe in working hard and love their independence, as opposed to relying on boyfriends or rich older men for support.

1. Learn a craft

This is the simplest and quickest thing to do.

Hairdressing, tailoring, bead-making, make-up, anything at all that your budget can afford.

These crafts will surprisingly earn you more money than a 9-5, depending on how dedicated you are to it.

2. Start a blog

Whatsoever your heart decides on, blog it! Could be fashion, celebrity news, food, anything at all that is likely to get people interested.

Someday you’ll start making money off of it and just might become as wealthy as Linda Ikeji, famous Nigerian blogger.

3. Sell your skills

What do you love doing? Dancing? Writing? You could start classes or better yet, do it from the comfort of your home.

There are sites that pay freelance writers, painters, and more. Dance classes can also be done from a small space within or around your home.

4. Buy and re-sell

This is one of the most lucrative things a young woman can do. You buy it at N100 and sell at N150. Before you know it, you’re a freaking millionaire!

5. Social media marketing

These social media influencers like they call themselves are earning big bucks, ladies!

All you need is a large number of following on your Twitter, Facebook, Instagram pages and voila! You’re on your way to becoming the next big thing, as even celebrities would want your help, as most times they need someone who can manage their social media pages on their behalf.

6. Tutor students

Parents of primary and secondary school students are constantly in need of tutors to help coach their kids after school.

What subject did you absolutely or still love? Go for it!

Trust me, teaching these kids is simpler than you think, and it’s also a way of exercising and keeping your mind and brain busy.

And you earn money while at it.
