6 Things You Can Do to Put Yourself Through School Today

If you are a student and have been seeking for ways to help yourself through school, then this is what you need to read.
Only yesterday in my commute to work, a guy was begging for alms, he claimed that he was a student at a maritime institution and was begging to raise money to pay his fees.
Quite a number of people in the vehicle doubted if he was a student, but he might have been. As laudable as it is to seek to further your education, you don’t have to stoop to begging to pay your fees, here are some things you can do to put yourself through school. And you don’t even need to rent a shop, as long as your customers know how to contact you.
Photography – If there is one thing undergraduates love
doing, it’s taking photographs (even when they are broke). Come to
think of it, it seems that every Nigerian university through the years
had students who took photographs while in school to sustain them. You
can take photographs of students and even cover events and before you
know it, you will be rolling in cash.
Barbing
– Like photography, barbing is another sideline quite a number of guys
venture into and quite a number of guys used to pay their way through
school. All you need is a pair of clippers, scissors, a comb and you are
in business. Most guys cut/trim their hair and beards weekly so you can
be assured of a constant source of income.
Hairdressing – This is another money spinner
students can go into, and you don’t need to be female to make hair.
Personally, I have found that male hairdressers tend to make you look
prettier. Since girls spend much more money on their hair than guys do,
hairdressers can make a ton of money, especially if you add home
service.
Manicures/pedicures – The craze for false nails
does not seem to be going anywhere anytime soon so making nails is
another sure source of steady income for anyone looking to earn some
steady cash. Just make sure you keep yourself abreast of the latest
trends in nail art, and you are in business.
Tailoring – Sewing is another money spinning craft
you can practice, by taking the time to learn to make clothes that are
both trendy, well finished, and delivered on time; you can be assured of
constant customers.
Modelling – This is another source of income young
people can explore, especially if you are above average in height,
slim, and blessed with good skin and dentition. From calendar to photo
shoots to runway modelling, you can be assured of some cash from
modelling.
