yeah same ere i ahve looked into it but guaranteed itll be thurs fri and sat nights doing that.Also if you crash your not covered,how do you explain pizza's or kebabs in you car in a heatbag? Also fuel wise,some pay i think 50p per mile.so all in all you have probably wasted half a tank divin round so that 50p a mile towards fuel you get back inc your wages would probably cover half a tank full anyway , To me its a no win situation? there obviously is but probably be little if people are doing it in their own cars

I've heard selling Class A drugs can be profitable. There's a lad across the village who's bought a suped-up E36 M3 off the back of it. He gets a lot of repeat business too, by all accounts, although it's hardly surprising when you hear how moreish smack is. He doesn't even declare it to the Inland Revenue either, winner all round. Nah, the margins just aren't what they used to be. Plus you need a large amount of capital to invest to get the rates and deals. Hedging seems to be a major part of success in this game. From what I gather it's a franchise model for which you pay substantially each week to more senior members for the right to sell, what I assume to be, a trademarked product. I was at a seminar the other week and couldn't see the ROI in any reasonable timescale. Plus the logistics looked a nightmare.

Is your coupé your daily driver? If not and you have a "sensible" saloon, ambulances services are always desperate for private car owners to act as drivers for patients. Easy job, apart from the waiting about, bit like being a taxi driver but just running patients to/from hospital. Because of working time directives they now find that patients are often stuck waiting for transport in the evenings because the driver that took them there have had to clock off after running out of hours. Blood donor/organ transport services are sometimes looking for drivers too. You've also got "out-of-hours" doctor service which requires drivers but the issue there is that you may have to work longer shifts than you are after. Join the RNLI? Although they make a big thing about being unpaid volunteers that isn't strictly true; they get paid an hourly rate to cover "loss of income" when training and on callouts. Problem here is that the income isn't regular and you have to live within a set distance of the station. Same thing for part-time Coastguards, they are on a nice little earner, but again the money isn't regular. Become a professional moderator? I jest ye not, there are companies out there who hire moderators and pay you to keep their forums safe.....this forum isn't one of them, unfortunately!

Taxi driving ? Is there no way you cant earn more in your current wok/job ? This is definitely an option - minicabbing. You don't need any training like you do with 'the knowledge' when you become a black cab driver(and takes around 3-4 years!). All you need is a car less than 10 years old, a licence from the Public Carriage Office(£120) and an MOT every 6 months. Certain companies will give you a vehicle and fuel, but they obviously charge you for it, so you need to work longer hours to make the same amount.

me and my mate was talking about wether we'd become cabbie drivers. i have a mate who is a cabbie driver,he works nights as its busiest especially thur till mon.The problem he's got is he rents his taxi and pays £150pw for it so he has to earn alot to cover it and make a living.During the summer he can easily but off season he cant,(but luckily for him he still lives at home) he's been doing it 12 months and is wanting a more steady set job. He used to be an led sign installer workin mon-sat..god knows why he gave that job up.

Trouble shooting. Lots of travel, interesting people and no jobs the same. Not for everyone.
