    well, no matter what it is you are going to do, you are going to have to work hard to get $3000. There really isn't a simple answer or suggestion for you.

    Here are some ideas:

    1. Design a premium website for a corporation
    2. Scratch off lottery ticket
    3. Beg on the street
    4. Prostitute yourself
    5. Buy cocaine and make crack and sell it to the hoodrats
    6. Write a super-duper amazing blog that attracts thousands and thousands of readers
    7. invent something
    8. Flip some real estate
    9. rob a bank
    10. steal a laptop
    11. be a waiter
    12. deliver pizzas
    13. sell everything you own and start anew with a laptop
    14. find scrap metal and sell it
    15. have a garagesale

    whatever you do, don't blow your money

    You are on the right place to ask the question, and you can find great work here to get 3000$ as you wote not quick. So can get anytype of work like article writing, submission bla bla bla

    I agree with Knight Rider, get a job, thats for most of us unless you are a prima donna webmaster, the likes of john chow and shoemoney. The rest of us have to do the traditional way.

    $3k is quite a big amount, getting a job would be the fastest way to earn it.

    Save the 50-60 bucks and get a real job - or play the lottery. How about writing articles as the previous poster mentioned. It will take you a while to get 3 grand, but you need that experience since you're going to college :D

    I'd say silver is the better PM to invest in these days.

    With $50-60, it is not possible to get $3000 out of investing in silver. He needs honest and hard work to get that sort of money.

    I remember college was about being wise with my money and not having everything brand new with bling. Perhaps things have changed...

    Anyway why not shop for a cheaper laptop until you have funds? Or even a used laptop?

    Yeap this is a very wise and sensible suggestion, even at college there are enough computer terminals for you to use. Also some college implement renting of laptops to students.

    Find a person who loves computers to build you one. it'll be a lot cheaper and have everything you want out of a computer. the extra cash could go towards something else

    60$ to invest that's like nothing

    Now it depends if you have some skills

    Skills can make more then having money

    Freelancing ?

    It's like geting a job but you work from home
