    Is there an easy way to earn money?

    I intend on studying abroad next year (I still need to convince my parents about this, which I'll do so after the "internship") and I think it's a good idea to start saving up. I saved up a lot already but I am trying to earn about $5000 to $10000 just in case if the cost becomes ridiculously high or something to that extent. I would work over the summer but I am going to earn a decent amount of money in my research "internship" at Penn State this summer. I could ask my parents to help me pay for it, but being Asian parents, they are so stubborn and probably don't want to waste any money out of their pockets haha. I am trying to find alternative ways of earning income but I have no idea where to begin.

    I asked the host institution of the study abroad program if they are able to provide some assisted aid, but unfortunately, they don't. I also contacted my home institution and from what it seems, I don't think they'll provide enough money to cover the costs. I searched for some scholarships, but it seems that the money that I will win will go towards the tuition at my home institution rather than the study abroad program.

    I am considering online tutoring jobs, music writing contests, or part time jobs at the moment. Nothing seems promising so far haha.

    My summer internship starts in late June, so I have about a month and a half to work part time if I decide to do that. I would like to do something that involves music or math to earn my extra income, but if I have to mow someone's lawn, I'll do that haha.

    Any suggestions FFR? Thanks

        Sell blow, heroin and weed for mad cash. Acid and speed make some good side-profit.
        The above post has a 50% chance of being useless. Potentially. Maybe.

            you guys don't sound very serious... honestly if I knew I would not only tell you, but I'd be doing it myself x)

            Edit: try telemarketing sales, you seem like a good personality, maybe you would make a good sales man

              "if you're good at something, never do it for free"

              I got paid for a while being a piano teacher. Worked nicely, got $20 an hour.

                Work as a professional speaker for an income of $50000/event.

                Or at least that's what I plan.

                I AM ASHAMED OF MY STUPIDITY AND MUST COMMIT SEPPUKU. FORGIVE ME, FFR.

                  You're a smart guy. Get a job as a tutor.
                  If you can teach well and there's a demand, tutoring pays VERY well for the minimal amount of work it takes haha

                          find a great passion in something you can make some bling in. there is no easy way but it can become routine/easy eventually :P

                          as for specific ideas im not really sure. i know for me poker is lucrative.

                              Easy ways to get money:

                              Pick up money you find on the street.
                              When someone is like "I dare anyone X amount of dollars blah blah" take up the dare.
                              Try to see if people need things done and are willing to pay. (mow yard, rake leaves, paint, move furniture, etc)

                              Easy quick money, but not much money.

                              Ways to get lots of money very quickly:

                              Win the lottery.
                              Inherit it.
                              Win expensive lawsuit.
                              Overnight celebrity.

                              Lots of money, but good luck with that.
