Make money by sarcastically making fun of all other internet entrepreneurs... then shamelessly plug a high end product and reap affiliate link commissions

Are you sarcastic?  Can you make a satirical YouTube video about how goofy today's internet "entrepreneurs" are?  Do you know what affiliate marketing is?  Can you copy and paste an affiliate link?  Then you, too, could make money like this guy above.  I don't know who the fuck he is, but apparently 2.97 million subscribers do.  WTF?  Did this guy date a Kardashian for ten minutes or something?  2.97 million?  

This guy's making money by making fun of people.  Shit, that sounds fun to me.  You, too, could make money by making videos while making fun of other people.  This is humorous YouTube affiliate marketing in 2023.  

Find a course that teaches you how to do affiliate marketing (sign up on some affiliate marketers email list, then just get the free old videos, and learn from those, don't buy the actual new course).  Then figure out how to make a decent YouTube video (YouTube how-to videos will teach you.  (Remember kids, YouTube is the new college, and student debt is for losers!)  Then sign up for an affiliate program, make a sarcastic video, put your affiliate link in the bottom, and make money like this guy.  Oh, and build a following of three million followers, too.  That might take a couple of weeks.

 

See, it's that easy!  Now go detox your negative energy with whatever trendy drink from some obscure part of the world that people are drinking this week, and get to it!

Make money hunting for meteorites

Money from heaven?  Not quite, but rocks that literally fall out of the sky, from space, are worth quite a bit of money.  A few years ago the Meteorite Men TV show chronicled a couple of top meteorite hunters who do this professionally, as you can see in this video above. 

Are you someone with an interest in space, or maybe a rock hound?  Or both?  Do you like searching for treasure?  Meteorite hunting brings these interests together.  This is not a quick and easy way to make money, by any means.  But if these fields interest you, and you have a SUV that actually can go off road, meteorite hunting might be fun for you, and possibly even profitable.  This 5 minute robot voice video gives you the basics. 

When large meteors fall from space, into our atmosphere, they often break up into hundreds or thousands of small pieces.  People find, then buy and collect these pieces, both for science, and just as a collectibles.  So you can literally go out to some "strewn fields" on public lands (like BLM land in the U.S. west), and find meteorites that could be worth hundreds, possibly even thousands, of dollars.  You can also search for meteorites on privately owned land, if you get the landowners permission, and make a deal to share profits with them.  

It takes some training to learn to spot meteorites, and tell them apart from other rocks. It also takes a lot of patience, and a good magnet, perhaps a metal detector.  But this is a hobby, and possible side gig, for the right people.  If this idea appeals to you, do some more research, and see if there's a "strewn field," a known meteorite landing zone, somewhere near you that you can go check out.  Get any needed permissions, and go hunt for space rocks.  

Make money by selling your poop...seriously

  You can possibly make $500 to $1,500 a month selling your poop for science.  While many people think I'm full of shit, I haven't tried this.  But here are the two main websites if this strikes your fancy.

You can hunt for diamonds at Acres of Diamonds State Park in Arkansas

Do you know what a Kimberlite pipe is?  No, you don't smoke weed with it.  It's a type of ancient lava tube that exploded up to the surface of the Earth eons ago.  But kimberlite pipe lava tubes have diamonds in them.  One similar feature is found near Murfreesboro, Arkansas.  It's now called Crater of Diamonds State Park, and you can search for actual diamonds there, and keep any you find. 

Have you ever gone to a state park?  I'm sure you have at some point.  When I was a kid in Ohio, my parents often took my sister and me to state parks,  and we did typical start park stuff.  We had picnics, swam in the lakes, went hiking, and did some fishing.  

Have you ever gone to a state park where you can search for real diamonds, and keep any you find?  Believe it or not, there actually is a state park where you can do that, just outside Murfreesboro, Arkansas.  It's called Crater of Diamonds State Park, and they say about 35,000 diamonds have been found there since it became a state park in 1972.  All told, since the first diamond was found in 1906, estimates are that 50,000 to 100,000 diamonds have been in that area.  

The reality is, your chances of finding a diamond there are pretty small, but they say usually one or two diamonds are found at the park every day.  Your chances are as good as anyone else's chances.  Little kids have found diamonds just walking across the plowed dirt and looking for shiny stones.  That's the easiest way to search for diamonds.  You can also dry sift and wet sift through the dirt, to increase your chances.  Below is the park's website link, and a few YouTube videos to check out if you're interested in making a trip there.  There are a bunch more videos online, including several with people who have actually found diamonds in the park.

Underwater metal detecting

Do you like going to the beach, swimming, and snorkeling?  Do you like finding treasure?  Do you like making money?  Looking for a fun side gig?  If you said yes, check out this video.  

In this video, we see three guys find nine rings, and several other things, even a $5 bill, underwater.  They do this on a public beach with metal detectors by snorkeling.  In addition, there's a fun prank in the video, and a really cool story of reuniting a person with a ring they lost months before.  Check out the video if any of this peaks your interest.
