So, I'm going to show you some of the legit ways to make extra money whether you live in the US or outside of the US. I'm going to be going over a number of app-based jobs. It'll also be going over a number of internet-based jobs. And I'll show you those on my computer right here in a second. Check this out. There's a lot of ways to make extra money. And I'm assuming when you're looking for a way to make extra money, you need to have a job something that you can do at various times of the day. This is a side job. Just extra money to supplement what you're already doing. I'll be going over as I said app-based jobs and just side hustles you can do to make extra money. And also I'll be going over internet-based jobs. A lot of the app-based jobs are based in the US. And some of them are not international yet. But I'll be talking through all of them and I'll be given some internet-based jobs that you can do just using your computer for those of you that may not have access to some of these.
The first opportunity which I'm sure everyone here has heard about is you can be an Uber or Lyft driver. Those are great ways that (I don't know) tens of thousands or millions of people (I don't know what it is) have make extra money. I don't drive anywhere. I use Lyft everywhere I go. I think Lyft's a better company. It's got more personality. And encourages people to sit in the front and do the fist pump which... I don't know, I just think that's cool. They used to have that big furry pink moustache on the front. That was funny. This is a great way to make extra money. And there are even ways that you can... When you sign up, that you can use it, that you can be a driver without your own car. So, there's like companies that will rent you cars. Just so you could drive people around. They'll take like a percentage of whatever you make. Great opportunity.
Other great way to make money is... If you just want to like babysit kids, if you want to be a nurse or a night nurse or a doula. If you want a babysitter, the best place to go would be care.com. I think they have an app. I know it's a website. But me and my wife are always do crazy stuff. So, we use care.com for all of our nannies and for our night nurse. You know, it's a great place to go. Another site which you can go if you want to get a job is TaskRabbit. Task Rabbit. That's an app and you there's so many tasks on TaskRabbit you can find. But basically you can do like moving or data entry or you know event coordination or there's there's all sorts of, you know... All sorts of stuff that you can get on organization. There's like a million different tasks you can sign up to do on taskrabbit.com. Really great app. I've used it a ton as, you know, somebody who gets people and it's a great app.
So the most basic way is you could actually just do basic tasks on Amazon such as taking surveys and identifying objects and you know, naming objects and picture. Sounds really neat, right? Just do basic work and get paid. You don't have to have any skills to do this. And there's over a thousand jobs. So, this is called Amazon MTurk. And it stands for Amazon Mechanical Turk. And you can sign up for free and you're assigned a worker ID. It's kind of weird and dystopian. But check this out. We have a thing right here. Short survey takes 9 minutes. Are you serious? Look at this. Reward, you get paid ¢10, okay? ¢10 for 9 minutes. That's like a penny a minute, okay? That's ridiculous. So, the problem with Amazon Mechanical Turk and like hoping to do like surveys and stuff for extra money is you get paid nothing. Like you'll get paid like ¢60 an hour if you... You know, if you were to do... If you were to do jobs on here. And even so look, you qualification is you have to be based in the US. What's crazy is they are getting... They've already had 658 people do this task in the US for essentially ¢50 an hour. That's nuts.
