Anyone know easy ways to make money - be it Bitcoins, or otherwise?

This isn't just for me, but also as help to anyone in general. I read an article about people who were making money by watching You Tube videos and getting paid Bitcoins from some site called bitcoinget. And I know about Amazon's Mechanical Turk.

Does anyone know of other simple ways to make extra money on the side?

Sell your organs? Prostitution?

No but if there was an easy way to make money, everyone would be doing it already.

Garage/yard sale. Recycling programs that give you some money. Scavenging for trashed items you can salvage.

How about websites, like the aforementioned Mechanical Turk and Bitcoinget?

Some sites pay you money to read advertisements.

Not sure how much of that is scams or exaggeration of how much money you get.

There's really no such thing as easy money. You either have to put in hard work, be talented, or get extremely lucky.

Now ways of making more money when you already have an income, that's possible. You can invest money, exploit tax breaks, etc.

It's probably to bump up their ad revenue. They'd then give you a small amount of what you've gotten them.

I'm willing to try anything. I do have a job, but Rain Man here can't put his college degree to good work, and only got a job as a favor to his dad. While the people at work are friendly and accepting (and very likely know I'm autistic), I want more out of life. I do invest in the stock market and watch it carefully, and currently have a nice $7,500+ profit. But I make little take-home pay, and I don't want to live in an apartment (I currently live with my parents, and that might change). It's bad enough I have no friends.

I realize there's no easy way to make a LOT of money, but I do want to add more on.

What is the degree in?

Psychology, like it matters. It doesn't. I can't get a job that specifically uses a B.A. in something I last took classes in a decade ago.

Yeah, that's not going to be helpful.

Honestly, I have no idea of how to reliably make good money except for skilled work.

I'd give up on bitcoins or litecoins or whatever the hell else you're thinking of too. Internet currency is useless. Call me a skeptic, but I see no way you'd earn actual real world money watching videos or clicking on advertisements that isn't a huge scam.

I made $5,000 off bitcoin trading when the price was doing insane things last year. Now it's stabilized. Litecoins look like they'll go up in price.

I read an article about how homeless people are feeding themselves with food paid for with bitcoins that they earn doing tasks online. Doesn't solve their main problem, but allows them to stay alive.

Cashcrate?

I'll give it a try!

HA

But seriously, just apply for every job you can find. Look up temp agencies and apply there too. And keep at it.

Are you male? Look into donating sperm.

Also plasma.

How much does that pay? And also, I don't know if they want the sperm of someone who was diagnosed with autism and was non-verbal as a baby. I'd be raising the chances significantly that whoever has my offspring has to deal with that, and not everyone knows how to handle it.

Maybe baking cupcakes? If they're pretty you can make a nice buck out of them. There are lots of recipes on the interwebz.
