the only decent "work from home" jobs are those that are connected with the real world like ebay or medical transcripts. utube, article writing, drop shipping etc, you can make money but the time you invest to do it is not worth the payoff. there may be people making 500 a week off utube but they spent years making 5 a week before they got there.

The only thing I am passionate and knowledgeable about is God I have been wanting to do my own arts and crafts thing with pokeballs making custom pokeballs but buying the supplies is costly and I am having a very hard time getting the money to get the supplies but that would be the best thing for me as I love to do it and I can be very creative with it I just can't get the money to buy all the supplies I need for it.

The rest is a no go I can't drive and I know only english

What kind of supplies you need? I know of a few wholesale craft sites.

I found a place that sells elf on a shelf dolls
for a few bucks. I buy them in bulk and sell them on eBay at 10.00 each. Haven't done it in a couple months but I did do well. Sold about 5 a week

I knew a guy a few years ago who would just shop at thrift stores in the wealthy areas of town and sell the items on eBay. He gained a lot of knowledge on what sold, how to price things, how much inventory he needed, etc. Granted it still required some hands on work, buying items, listing, and shipping, but most things do if you want to earn a steady income.

Also someone mentioned earlier...why not take some kind of skills course? Look at what's being offered at your local community college.

There are also free classes offered on a variety of subjects on websites like coursera.

so me being disabled I am unable to get a real job and 400 dollars a month doesn't last and so I was wanting to figure out if there is a way to make some money online and I was told there isn't a lot of ways and many of them are scams and I found that many are indeed scams.

I find it absolutely unbelievable that making money online is so hard I would think the internet would be the best way to do it I mean I am not looking to make bank just a little extra cash i dont have anything to sell on amazon or ebay and I really don't want to put in a ton of work for very little pay out.

Does anyone know a real way to make a little extra cash online?

Hey Blain, If you're really serious about the pokeballs thing, why not set up a gofundme page to solicit donations to start your business? You could make a small goal -- like $200 -- I would think you have enough friends that would donate a few bucks to get you started.

Brother, I had a disabled guy working with me.
He had some form of muscular dystrophy and he was working as a bookkeeper / accountant and was capable of doing what many other abled people were doing. To do a bookkeeping job is not difficult and with experience you can actually grow into a good employee. In South Africa you receive grants for employing disabled people and I am sure you will find the same in America :) .

so due to the fact that I was unable to find any alternative way of getting the money to make the pokeballs I took santuzza's advice and made a go fund me page but I have no idea how to do this it's not like I have facebook anymore I stopped using it a long long time ago and I am pretty sure posting the link in cc will get me banned so how do I do this? does anyone have experience in this?

I know for mine I had to have a PayPal account, and making one is simple. You name your campaign, tell your story of why you need the funds, and the best part I say that there is no limit on how long you can collect money. I would probably call it "living on my own" or something like hat.

Theb you share it online pro others share it for you. I know I'll share it for sure ❤️
