Here's one for ya'll to wrap your heads around. I'm always strapped for cash and have trouble finding jobs that can work around my school schedule. I do have a part time job, but the pay and hours both suck. I had a strange idea last night and whilst surfing the internet for the other crazy person who had my idea before me, I found it here: Neville's Financial Blog: Bottled Water Experiment
If you don't feel like reading the whole story here's the jist of it:
1) Buy ice and bottled water in bulk
2) Sell bottled water from cooler to motorists on busy street corners
3) Wash, rinse, repeat
This seems to be a simple enough plan to make some extra cash in my spare time in between work and school, and would give me some extra mulah to spend on homebrewing. Anyone have any thoughts on the idea? My only real concern is the legality of selling bottled water without a license; I'm assuming if a cop were to hassle me I could just say I'm doing a fund raiser or something like that to get them off my back. Other than that, this does have the potential to make a few hundred bucks on a hot summer day...
