Little Income Streams Combine To Form Big Income Streams
You know the problem with budgeting? There’s a hard limit. What you make is what you make, and there’s only so much you can cut. Sure every budget has its share of “fat” but once you’ve cut that out than anything else you remove from the budget to reduce your monthly expenses really starts to hurt! That’s bad but if you’re swamped with debt, student loan and otherwise, what else can you do? We’ve got some answers just below.
Now granted none of the ideas we’ll outline for you will make you rich. Don’t go thinking you can quit your day job and rely on any of this to pay all your bills. That’s not what these ideas are designed to do. Rather, the ideas here are all about creating little “micro-streams” of income that add up slowly but have a regular tangible payoff. Best of all the ideas we’ll be showing you don’t take any real time and in some cases they pay money for stuff you’re already doing! These aren’t secrets per se because anybody can find them. It’s not like they’re hiding, it’s just that if you don’t know where to look you’ll never find them. There are just too many sites on the web.
What this is about then is teaching you how to pick up spare change in a few different ways that won’t take up a huge amount of your time. You might even be inclined to laugh at the small values we’re talking about here right up to the point where you cash in on these ideas and they pay for a dinner date or pay the cable bill. Then the light bulb will come on, and you’ll see the power of what we’re talking about here. The great thing about “micro-streams” of income? You can collect several of them and added together they make a nice little addition to your budget! It’s an easy convenient way to pick up some extra money without having to spend a lot of time, and who’s not in favor of that?

Music X-Ray
Did you know that people will pay you to listen to music? They do! Granted it’s not much but you probably listen to music while you work. Pandora, Spotify, and a variety of internet radio stations. Music X-Ray should definitely be on your list. For each song you give a listen to they’ll pay you a dime. The money collects in your X-Ray account until you reach $20 then they pay via PayPal. Again, it won’t make you a fortune but since you’re already listening to music anyway why not get paid to do it? Check them out here: https://www.musicxray.com/
Best Mark
Shopping has replaced Baseball as America’s favorite pas time. The problem? Shopping costs money, but what if it didn’t? What if you could actually get paid to shop? You can. Best Mark is one of the oldest most reputable mystery shopping networks around and it’s free to join. All you need is transportation, internet connection, at least some writing ability and a good eye for detail because the reports you’ll be asked to write about your shopping experience are fairly detail oriented. Still, it’s a great way to get free dinners and other items you’d be buying anyway and they pay you for your time to boot. If your budget’s tight you won’t want to miss this:

Power Couponing
You’ve probably seen the “Extreme Couponing” show on television. If you haven’t seen it you’ve likely heard of it. In every episode of the program they show people buying hundreds of dollars worth of groceries and paying little to nothing for them. What they don’t show is all the work that goes into each trip. But what if there was a way to cut out all the tedium and still get most of the benefits? Again, there is. There are free websites that do most of the work for you. Granted you won’t get quite the same results on TV but you’ll save between 60-85%, which is money in the bank. The complete methodology is spelled out here: http://www.couponmom.com/
Happiness is finding ways of getting paid for things you’re already doing and taken together these can add some much needed extra padding to your budget.
