If you have found yourself to be over 40 and unemployed, then try not to worry too much. There are things you can do to make money from home. If you have access to the internet, then there are many ways to bring in some much-needed cash.
Here are some things you can try:
#1 – Build Your Own Online Affiliate Business
It’s surprisingly easier than you might think to create a business online. You don’t even need to have products to sell, as you can sell other people’s products and earn a commission for the sales you make.
Have a look at this. It’s a 15-day business builder challenge, that shows you how to build a business as an affiliate marketer selling high ticket products. You’ll discover how you can earn $1,000 or more per sale.
Just imagine what a few of those a month will do for your life right now!
#2 – Sell Stuff on eBay
Take a good look around your home, in the attic, the garage, and any storage areas. Look for things you never use and put them up on eBay to sell. You’ll be surprised at the number of things you probably have lying around gathering dust.
Have a good sort out, take photos of the things you can sell, and put them up for auction on eBay.
You could even ask friends and family if they want things selling and take a small commission from each item. Many people won’t want the hassle of listing items themselves but would welcome your help and the extra money they could make.
#3 – Become A Micro-Worker
A micro-worker is someone who does small tasks for a set fee. This might be to take a photo of a certain item, pose in certain positions, or to write articles. There are many sites that allow you to sign up and choose tasks that you can do. You will see the price you’ll be paid and can choose whether to accept them or not.
You might need to join several sites to get regular tasks but it’s still a great way to bring in some additional income.
#4 – Make Videos For YouTube
There are so many people making millions from YouTube right now. The top earner is less than 10 years old and reviews toys in his videos.
Crazy right?
You could set up your own YouTube channel and make videos about things you are passionate about. Choose topics to talk about and film yourself using your smartphone or webcam. You don’t have to be professional when starting out, just turn the camera on and get started.
You’ll improve with the number of videos you make. The money can be earned via showing YouTube ads or by recommending affiliate products and putting links under your videos.
Popular channels can make 6 or even 7 figures a month!
Summary
Those are just a few different ways you can make money online if you’re over 40 and unemployed. The main thing is to not give up and try new things. Just one of them can make you a serious amount of money and you may never have to have a proper job again!
