what is up YouTube today we are talking about money well this is Fijian money
did you get the point there are probably a million ways to make money on the road
but today we are going to talk about seven ways which I have personally used
to make money on the road or that people I have met on the road have used to fund
their travels alright so the number one way to make money on the road is
probably the most obvious and that is learning a skill there are an infinite
number of skills that you can learn and monetize from anywhere for example some
of the skills that I personally used to make money on the road are my IT
expertise I do a helpdesk type thing online which I just get paid per
question that I answer photography there are numerous websites that you can sell
your photos to companies or two people on 500px is an example of one there's
there's tons more snap wire and things like that and video whether that be
creating video for companies and getting paid to create the video or entering
competitions with cash prizes number two is buying or selling products
on eBay Facebook marketplace or Craigslist you can find hidden gems to
flip at almost any thrift store in the country or really in any country the
benefit of traveling full time is that you're not confined to one location so
you can find good deals in all these different areas and you don't have to
wait for the good deals come to you you can go to the deals just looking free
items on Craigslist can potentially bring you a solid income number three
start a blog or a YouTube channel both disclosure this is not a
get-rich-quick method it takes a long time to build a following and even
longer to monetize that following before you start make sure you know that you'll
be putting in a ton of work for essentially zero pay for an undisclosed
amount I'm number four a seasonal work for
companies like Amazon I recently found out about this because of a couple that
I met in Colorado I actually filmed a little documentary style video on their
life you want to check it out I'll put a link up here they work for Amazon during
the busy holiday seasons and not only get paid an hourly wage but also get a
free place to camp I'm definitely not an expert on this but it's definitely worth
looking into number five create a product or start a
business now I don't have any personal experience with creating product or
starting a business but if you have a tinkering mind and you like to create
things that might be the ideal job for you the ideal income source for you
number six get a normal job now you can do this one of two ways you can either
work at local shops or restaurants depending on how long you're staying in
an area if you're staying for six months at a time in an area and then moving
that might be a viable option for you to check out to just work at a normal store
or restaurant in the area or you can find a remote job online now this kind
of goes hand in hand with number one because you usually need some sort of
skill set to be able to work from a laptop from a computer before I go into
the last money making method I just want to say that making money and saving
money go hand in hand a dollar saved per month is the same as making an extra
dollar every month with that being said number seven is work camping or wwoofing
now most of the time when your work camping which is working for a
campground or wolfing which is working on an organic farm you are not going to
get paid rather than pay you money they offer you a free place to stay now
though this isn't the same as making money it's only about a dozen hours a
week and you can essentially cut all living expenses from your budget because
you don't have to pay for a place to stay which is like one of the largest
living expenses and if your wwoofing a lot of times you get free food as well
because these organic farms they'll just they cook dinner or something like that
so you're cutting tons of living expenses out which is essentially the
same as making money I'll throw a couple
links in the description below of the websites where you can get in contact
with these organic farmers and campground owners so that you can test
the waters alright guys so that is all seven methods to make money while you're
