One of the first jobs I had out of college was only slightly related to what I studied. None the less, it was a job. I spent a lot of time splicing film, and going through customers slides, fixing photographs, and moving film to VHS. It wasn’t that hard, but I was not ready for 9 to 5 life. I had a lot of flexibility in college, and like most my age, I loved to sleep. When I suddenly didn’t get the amount of sleep I needed, I was always tired at work. This was something that was tolerable with a lot of coffee, until it came to working with the light table. We worked in the basement of the building, and there was not a lot of natural light.

Did you know that it is possible to upload your prized pics, and get paid for them time and time again?
Think about all the web sites, magazine, print ads, wall portraits you see everywhere. Some one had to take them. Would you be surprised to know that everyday people like yourselves, have taken some of those pictures?
It’s true, there are a ton of places to sell them online. All you need is a digital camera and internet connection, and some free time to take pictures and you can get paid to take pictures.
Here’s the best part. Once you up load these picture, EVERYTIME they are downloaded; you get paid! Its like writing a book, or recording a song. You get paid royalties on all of your digital pics.
What I found out by doing this, is its really good money. Maybe more than your job pays you. I also found out its FUN. I have found it to bring out a creative side in myself, that I didn’t know existed.
It is quite easy to turn something like this into a business.
