It is no secret that there are only two things you can do to change your financial situation. You can either raise your income or lower your outgo (cut your expenses). On the income side there are many things I suggest to clients to help get out of debt faster. Each of these I have either done or would do myself. When developing your plan, decide what will work best for you, but focus on doing whatever it takes to become debt free, except for you home, within 24 months or less.
Many people are looking for a flexible extra job to bump the monthly income a bit. Slightly flexible jobs include delivering pizza and newspapers. With these you should be able to work around your normal 9 – 5.
For something more flexible, how about delivering phone books? It’s that time of year right now and you can work whenever you want, as long as you complete your route. To deliver the AT&T phone book, call 1-800-422-1955 and navigate to extension 4. The representative will take your information and pass it along to the local outlet in your city. They will call you with further information.
Delivering phone books is temporary work, but any extra income helps, especially if you are hurting for something beyond your normal take home pay.
