Title. I found out recently that I need some major dental work in the near future and I don’t have a damn clue how I am going to raise the extra money. I want to explore any realistic options for increasing my earnings before I have to resort to taking on debt, and I suspect that soliciting ideas in a semi-public place like this will turn up a lot of ideas I would never have considered myself.
I’m not very physically fit, but I am pretty good with computers generally, and I’ve picked up a little bit of programming in my free time this year, though I wouldn’t sell myself as a freelancer in that department or anything. I am also pretty good at proofreading / nitpicking things, my regular job is in QA.
Thank you in advance for any input.
There are lots of translation, copywriting and voice acting jobs on freelance websites but obviously that won’t pay much as the requirements are usually just knowing English (but they do prefer native English speakers, + obviously another language if doing translaiton).
I wish I had even a mote of bilingual ability, translation work sounds like it would be interesting. I should definitely try my hand at amateur voice work though! That’s a great idea, and I would never have considered it an option. Thank you!
