Every Job is just as important as any other job. Without FF workers, the rest of us would not be able to work as much.
You seem to be saying you would like to make more money from the get go. Think about UNUSUAL jobs first. You would be surprised how many people started their own business from something simple. Ex: started mowing lawns, now owns his own florist, florist supply, greenhouse and runs a successful landscaping company supplied by his other business ventures.
Your best bet is to figure out what you are good at and then figure out how you can start working in this field. If you love listening to music, think about starting to install audio and video equipment. Lot's of money quick!
When you start working for getting paid by the thing you do instead of the time you spend doing the job, it adds up quick and you are not limited to a $240 check every two weeks.
Take out your calculator and try this....
At 240 a week you make $17.14 per day, multiply this by 30 and see how much you make in 30 days. $514.20 for 30 days. This is a conventional job! You are limited to trading your time for an hourly rate!
Now imagine if you only made 1 cent the first day and your salary doubled daily for 30 days. What would you make then? This is not a conventional job because you are not limited by time. You are only limited by the number of different things you can do!
Day 1 = 1 cent
Day 2 = 2 cents Total 3 cents
Day 3 = 4 cents Total 7 cents
Day 4 = 8 cents Total 15 cents
Day 5 = 16 cents Total 31 cents and so on
Surprise your self and try this on your calculator!
A very good book you might want to read is "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" and "Cash Flow Quadrant" by Robert Kiyosaki.
Making money is not about where you work, but more about your understanding of money itself.
I do hope this helps!
