Pocket Money

12-06-2009


After finishing college I got to talking with old mates from school about the various jobs they had all taken. Most of them had picked work which allowed them to make extra cash outside the realm of their normal pay. A lot of extra cash in some cases.

Which got me wondering about my job. There was not a lot of options to get money on the side line.

I wasn't able to go and do some outdoor plumbing. I couldn't give grinds to students (well I probably could but they would be worse off afterwards).

Until it clicked with me only a few days ago. Website work. Freelance website work to be exact.

Plan of attack is simple. Take on some website work for after normal working hours, enough to get a little extra cash together but not so much that I have no free time. I know I am not the best coder in the world and that this site gets "new features" more regular than people have hot dinners. But if I am ever asked to write a site from start to finish with a clear set of actions and features then it gets done in one sitting.

So I figure that I will write a new site to advertise freelance web design work and see what happens. God loves a trier, so a jester might get some luck as well.
