    I am currently living in South Korea and am unable to get a job becuase I do not have a working visa (and theres not much places that wouldnt require me to speak Korean). My dad is going back to the US for 3 weeks in April and while he's there I have some things I want him to buy for me. My problem is that I am flat broke atm!!!!

    I have an idea though. If I'm able to get some money into my paypal account I will post items on ebay that can be bought at wholesale websites such as overstock.com. That way when the eBay buyer buys the item i will then buy it from the wholesale website and have it sent directly to the eBay buyer. Does anyone know any reliable discount/bargain/wholesale websites other than overstock.com and newegg.com.

    What other options do I have to make this amount of money in 2 months. Obviously PTC sites are out of the question.

    Thanks

    Do you have any design skills, or would you mind writing articles? these are ways to make money here on DP, you can enter into logo/banner contests if you have photoshop skills, create templates to sell, etc.

    As jjdomainer said do you have designing skills? I make around $300-$500 a month designing so yeah, it is achievable :). Also said above, if you can write articles on a daily base, $20+ a day is great.

    You could try paid forum posting, set your rates and look for clients :).

    Good luck! :)

    My photoshop and design skills aren't the best but writing articles might be something I am able to do though my expertise is limited. Where would I have to go to if I wanted to write articles.

    What is involved with paid forum posting. Do I just charge like $0.10 per post or something. And how would I go about looking for clients, just post in the buying/selling forum??

    Look no furthur than here on DP! You can offer your services here on the Content forum...There are 1000s of DP members that are looking for unique content for their websites. Currently, the average price is around $0.01 - $0.02. You may want to consider giving away a few articles for free in exchange for a written review posted on your thread. The more credible you are the more customers you will get. Hope this helps.
