How to earn living expenses and tuition during college?

This question suits me very well. These are all my own ways to earn money part-time in college, and I also use the money to travel to many places. I hope it will help everyone.

Everyone has a poem and a distant place in his heart. Besides our daily work and study, we all look forward to traveling.

Before college, we focused on studying, just to study hard for ten years and go to the school we yearned for. In college life, there is not much pressure before the college entrance examination, and there is also some free time. With the sharing of more and more travelers on the Internet, many people are eager to travel with backpacks.

I was born in an ordinary family, and my parents seldom travel for investment in my study. Don't the rich second generation and the official second generation have a chance to travel? Not exactly.

I love life. During the college holiday, I walked in the north and south of the motherland with my backpack and recorded my travel story with my camera. Later, I traveled more often, and people around me gradually asked me: I envy you for walking around. Where did you get all the money for your trip?

1, find a part-time job to earn money

There are many choices for college students to take part-time jobs, and they can do something they can in their spare time. For example, my classmates are good at science. When he was a part-time tutor in college, he earned thousands of pocket money in one semester, which is not a small sum for students in ordinary families and can also satisfy some of his small wishes.

Based on my major and hobby, I chose English tutor. Piano teacher works part-time. I studied piano since I was a child, and I passed the grade examination, and my English was not bad since I was a child, so I took this part-time job.

Part-time job can not only earn some money on the trip, but also let yourself get in touch with the society as soon as possible.

Many college students are facing job hunting after graduation, and they have no social practice experience or internship before, which is actually unfavorable compared with work. The part-time job in the university also made me understand that it is not easy to make money, and I realized the warmth and coldness of the society, and also made it clearer that I should work hard in the future.

2, photography to make money

I began to teach myself photography in my freshman semester, but I didn't come out of the same class. Through continuous efforts and practice in college, I gradually got some fans on a travel website. Later, when I arrived at school, people came to take photos with me. I would also collect a little, though not much, but I could also save it for my next trip. I also pay attention to recording what I saw and heard during the trip, writing it down and submitting it to the magazine in the form of photos.

Now, through my own efforts, I have signed contracts with different institutions and companies to become photographers. The first low-end entry camera was bought by my family, and then all the equipment upgrades were earned by myself.

Photography, originally learned as a hobby, helped me a lot in my later life. Don't learn a skill with the idea of making money from it. When you master the skills, money will come naturally, and hobbies are the best teachers. What you learn will be of great help to you one day.

3.DIY postcards make money

I typeset and edited the photos of my trip and made postcards to sell on campus. Control the cost, make a good budget, and then implement it. Not only did I sell it myself, but I also found some student agents to help me sell it. Don't press the goods, bring me some copies if necessary, and bring them back to me if you can't sell them out. I give them a rock bottom price, they can sell it at their own price, and the commission is theirs. It is also combined with the literary cafes in the city and sold in the store, which is also the same sales method. Because the price was not expensive, there were no competitors on campus at that time, and I earned a little money. It's not much, but it's also very fulfilling.

Some people will say how can you do everything? I'm just interested in photography, design and painting. I have learned something before and integrated my skills into my ability to earn money.

Step 4 set up a stall to make money

Who said it would be shameful to set up a stall? There is nothing shameful about college students earning their own money. Because the school stipulates that no stalls can be set up on campus, I study at home during the winter and summer vacations and set up stalls in my hometown at night. During the day, I spend my time improving myself and learning other knowledge, but after dinner at night, I set up a stall in the downtown area and buy all kinds of trinkets and socks that girls like.

The purchase channel is online, earning the price difference in the middle. Although there are stalls set up by peers, my supply is good, the quality is guaranteed and the price is good. Repeat customers will ask me to buy and introduce new friends to buy things for me.

I am an introvert, I dare not speak loudly, but I will take every customer seriously. After a summer vacation, I not only earned some money, but also became friends with some customers, and my personality gradually became cheerful.

Later, in major festivals, I also helped merchants to do some promotional activities, and also earned a little income.

5. Open a Taobao shop to earn money

I tried to open a Taobao shop in high school, and I used my mother's Taobao account at that time. When I was in college, I had enough time. Opened a small Taobao shop and sold some favorite things. Although I can't earn much money, I can do what I like and do it well, and I feel very fulfilled.

While operating Taobao store, I also learned a lot of experience in Taobao operation. Courses such as marketing and psychology in college classes also help me run Taobao. This helped me a lot when I was looking for a job later. When I was looking for a job after graduation, many interviewers thought that I was an enterprising person, willing to challenge myself and work hard, and gave me an offer.

Now that I am a freelancer, my previous experience in Taobao operation has also enabled me to reopen a new Taobao shop and establish a new brand to sell things.

6, scholarships, competitions to earn money

Every school has set up scholarships to reward students with excellent academic performance. There are also various competitions, such as writing, piano, photography and so on. There are prizes in these competitions. As long as you win the prize, you can get a lot of money. Although there is not much money, save all the money to do the above money-making projects, and the travel money will gradually be available.

If there are many entrepreneurial competitions in your school and city, you can learn and communicate with many powerful people if you are interested. I won't grow up if I stay in the ivory tower all the time. I believe that the sooner I get in touch with the society, it will be of great help for me to find a job or start a business in the future.

Of course, if you have learned some knowledge about investment and financial management in college, you can try to buy some products such as fixed investment and funds. It is not recommended to buy stocks, which is risky. As I am not an expert in financial management, I will not share too much knowledge about financial management from the perspective of respecting professionals. You can look at the dry goods of other financial experts.

Therefore, there are many possibilities to earn money to travel without relying on parents. After 18, everyone is an adult, and earning money by yourself is something to be proud of. There is no saying that setting up a stall will lose face, and there is no result of delaying study by doing part-time jobs. We can only keep working hard and keep growing.

No time and no money are all excuses. No one can help you if you can't move.

Action is the antidote to all laziness and excuses.

Now that I'm working, I don't ask for money from my family when I'm financially independent, but many of my peers are still neets. Not only do they not earn money, they also need money from their families every month. No money is not terrible. The terrible thing is that you don't have the heart to make money and want to rely on your parents.

Whether you are a student or a worker, come on and be an economically independent and energetic person. Because economic independence is the first step towards a relatively free life.
