How to Earn a GED at Home for Free


Understand that there are many colleges and universities around the country that offer virtual GED classes online. These classes are funded through federal and state grants that are earmarked for GED programs. There is no cost to you.
Contact state colleges and universities in your area, and speak to the registrar. Specifically ask whether their school has been awarded grant money for free GED programs. If not, move on to the next school. Remember, these are virtual classes that are taken online, and it is not imperative that you apply to a school in your home state.
When you have located a college or university that offers a free GED program, fill out the admissions forms online, making sure that your contact information is correct, including a valid email address. An online program will require you to do this process entirely online, although toll-free numbers are usually provided should you need additional assistance.
There are online programs that offer free GED pre-tests and preparatory exams. These free services ensure that you will be prepared to take the actual GED exam when the time comes for certification. See Resources for additional information on where these free services can be found.
Utilize the free services that are available to help you prepare for the GED certification exam. Study during quiet times when there are no distractions, and right before you go to bed in the evening. Your mind will process what you have learned while you sleep. Remember, there is no need to pay for the GED exam when there are state and federal grant programs available to assist people in need.

How to Earn Money From Home Through the Internet


Tutor people online. Go to sites such as Tutor and E Tutor. You may need a degree depending on the site you are working with. If you like to teach people and have expertise in a certain area, this can be a good way to earn money.
Become a freelance writer. Many people are earning money by freelancing their writing. You can earn from $5 to $25 per article depending on the site. If you have ever written an essay for school then you can succeed with writing articles online. Break studios is one site that pays you for writing content. Make sure you have a writing sample in case you are asked for one.
Build a website to earn passive income. Create a website and make money from Internet ads. You can get ads from Google by applying at Google Adsense. Every time an ad on your site is clicked, you will earn money. Affiliate marketing is another way to earn income from your website. Affiliate marketing is the process of referring a customer to another business. For example, you can have links on your page that sends visitors to eBay's website to buy shoes, and you will earn money when someone purchases something on eBay. Ebay would be giving you a commission because you brought it business. You can apply for affiliates through sites like Share A Sale. The key to making money from advertisements and affiliate marketing is by getting traffic. If your traffic is low it will be difficult to earn money from this.
Sell your books, DVDs and even clothes on sites like Amazon or eBay. These sites will take a percentage from your profit from the sale. When you list an item, make sure you give an honest description and mail the item as soon as possible so that you can get positive feedback. The more positive your feedback is the more likely people will want to buy things from you.

How to earn $120 a Month Donating Plasma


Go to www.bloodbanker.com and search for donate-plasma-for-money center nearest you. *Sign up for an appointment and ask what you should bring as a first-time donor (typically it is a driver's license and a social security card).
Prepare for your visit to donate plasma by:
drinking lots of water the day before and leading up to your donation. This will reduce your donation time and help you recover quicker after donating.
eating a well balanced meal before donating (at least 4 hours), preferably with iron and protein in it.
avoiding alcohol, caffiene and high-fat, high cholesterol foods.
pick out a good book or paperwork from school or work to fill out while waiting.
Donate plasma! Get money! Save a life!
First you will check in, fill out paperwork and get your blood pressure and temperature taken. You also get a picture taken for your file!
Next you will submit a urine sample for testing.
Then you will get a tiny sample of blood taken from drops from your finger and your cuticle will be marked by a hi-lighter type marker under a black light to prevent you from donating at another plasma-for-money center before it is time.
You will then get a very brief physical, including inspection of eyes, ears, nose, breathing, and reflexes.
After this you will finally sit down to donate plasma. They have comfortable S-shaped beds which you lie on while donating and many tvs hooked up playing a movie. The movie they played while I was there was 'The Simpsons - The movie.' The actual donation takes about 40 minutes. It involves the extraction of your blood, the sorting of your red blood cells from the plasma (which is 90% water) and the return of the red blood cells to your body.
You then collect your money, typically $20-30 in cash and sign up for your next appointment.
Take care of your body after donating plasma.
eat a light meal and drink more fluids than usual
avoid consuming alcohol right away (it will really mess you up)
keep your venipuncture site clean (bandage can be removed after 2 hours)
if fainting or dizziness occurs lie down.
Put your plasma money in an account for whatever you want to use it for.It is very easy to just use $30 of cash on gas, groceries, starbucks, etc. Keep it in a special vacation account, retirement account, 'whatever account' or just immediately use it to pay off debt.
Go for your next appointment to donate plasma.*You can donate plasma 2 times a week for $30 each at my center in California. My husband and I both do this and make $480 in a 4 week month and $600 dollars in a 5 week month such as January. *We use the money to pay off debt. But, once we are out of debt, it is going in an emergency fund and then a 'house' fund. If we continue this throughout the year, it is almost an extra $6500 worth of income just for donating plasma!

How to Find Ways for Kids to Earn Money (5 Steps)


Choose chores or 'jobs' that are age appropriate for your child. Preschoolers and older toddlers can put their toys away or pair up clean socks, kindergarten-aged kids can make their beds, grade schoolers can do simple yard work such as raking leaves, middle school students can change bed sheets or vacuum and teens can do almost anything that an adult would do around the house.
Decide on tasks or jobs that you actually need someone to do. Avoid simply paying your child to re-do the work that you've already done, such as re-folding he clean laundry that you took care of while he was at school.
Ask for your child's input. Let him tell you what he wants to do or have him brainstorm ways to make money.
Clearly detail the tasks or chores that you expect your little one to perform. Tell your child what his job is and what he must do to earn money. For example, tell him that he must take out all of the garbage every week in order to earn five dollars. Tie this to consequences for not doing his 'job,' such as not getting paid.
Talk to your friends, family and neighbors, asking them if they have a job for your child to do. Ask close friends and relatives if your older child can babysit their little ones, act as a mother's helper, rake leaves, weed their gardens or help out with housework.

How to Plan a Production (6 Steps)


Schedule one or more readings of your script with your team. During the first reading or two, have team members identify what they do and don't like about the script. Have them identify the logistical issues associated with producing it. Ensure that the script falls in line with the preferences of your audience.
Review each scene in the script carefully. Identify the cast, props, crew, equipment and other resources needed to produce each individual scene. Make a spreadsheet identifying each person or item required by scene numbers. Also include a column for the cost of each person or item.
Assign roles to your team members. For school and community theater productions, be sensitive not only to what people would like to do, but also to how much time they have to work. For film productions and paid theatrical productions, work with professionals who have worked in other successful productions. They will have a solid understanding of their respective roles in the production process.
Assess the costs of your production. Move through the spreadsheet you created to identify a cost for each item in the production, including labor and overhead. You may want to ask your team to help you assess costs. Compare the overall projected cost of the production against how much you can afford to pay. Use this information to project how much you want it to earn in ticket sales.
Create a schedule that accurately reflects how long it will take to produce your project. Make sure it encompasses time for cast and technical rehearsals, constructing props and sets, acquiring equipment for use during the production, and clean-up after the production ends. Review the schedule with team members to ensure that it reflects their best estimates. Add extra time to ensure that you can handle unforeseen events.
Combine the script, schedule, cost estimate and team assignments into a written production plan. Use this document to help raise money to produce your project. Follow your production plan when the time comes to create your production.

How to Get a Sports Physical Therapy Internship


Choose a sports physical therapy internship based on what you would like to do when you graduate. Intern at a local college or university and do physical therapy for one of its sports teams. You might also choose to intern at a local hospital or doctor's office that offers sports physical therapy rehabilitation.
Determine in which aspects of physical therapy you're interested in working. If you're working with a sports team, contact your local college, high school or professional sports organizations. If you're interested in working in physical therapy with a rehabilitation facility, contact these types of facilities directly.
Speak with your professors or instructors about what contacts they might have regarding sports physical therapy internships. Your professors and instructors in sports physical therapy often have connections that can lead to valuable work experience.
Contact physical therapy organizations. The American Physical Therapy Association offers a list of physical therapy internships. Intern Abroad offers a list of international physical therapy internship opportunities. (See the Resources section.)
Apply for the internship opportunities you're interested in with the sports teams or rehabilitation facilities of your choice. It is always best to speak directly with the person in charge of internships with the organization you choose. However, if that is not possible, read every piece of information you can on the program. Learn about the organization and what it does.
Interview knowledgeably. When you interview for a sports physical therapy internship, know how to repair limbs and joints from injuries and pain to impress the internship coordinator for the organization.
