Take the 52-Week Make Money Challenge and Earn Over $1,378

The 52 Week Make Money Challenge encourages participants to find ways to earn a little extra money each week, above and beyond the normal income. It’s similar to the 52-week save money challenge, but the focus is on earning money rather than saving money. There are three variations of the challenge which can be attempted.

The Standard Challenge (Click on Image to Print)

The standard challenge is fairly simple and straight forward. You must earn $1 the first week. Next week, you will figure out how to earn $2. Next week (week three), you need to earn $3. Continue to do this until you reach the week that you want to earn money. You should earn $52 in week 52. The Alternative Challenge (Click the Image to Print).

The Alternate Challenge.

The alternate challenge allows you to make more money each week. You can choose your own amount for each week instead of going from $1 to $52 every week. If you made $35 during the first weeks, you’d cross out the box for $35 at the bottom and then put $35 on the first line of earnings. The alternative method gives people a greater chance to complete the challenge because it is flexible. The alternative method is a good option because it’s hard to predict how much money you will make each week. The goal should always be to try and earn the highest amount possible each week, but if life throws some challenges your way in the later months, and you’re only able to earn a little bit for a few weeks, you can cross off the smaller amounts without failing at the challenge.

There are three basic ways that you can approach this challenge, depending on what you feel gives you the greatest chance of reaching the goal, and what you’re most comfortable doing.

1. Single Money Earner

The method of the single money earner is to choose a way to earn money each week and stick with it throughout the year. You could decide to sell all the extra items you have lying around your house in order to make money. You sell an item or items each week and put any profit towards the challenge. This is why you focus on one method of making money all year long to achieve your goal. Focusing on a single thing for an entire year will help you become really good at making money.

2. In this version you will try to achieve the challenge by doing a variety of small tasks. You could, for example, in addition to the items you sell around your house, start doing online surveys, babysit at weekends and knit baby hats that you can sell at fairs. As part of this challenge, instead of focusing solely on one method of making money, you try a number of them. If you’re interested in this idea, I have listed some ideas at the end of this post to get you started.

3. Combination

Another option is to a combination of the above two. You would pick one thing as your main method of earning extra cash and then add other options. You could, for example, sell items around your home that are no longer needed, and also add in surveys to make the challenge more interesting. It’s also a great way to get your entrepreneurial spirit going and to start creating a variety of income streams so that you aren’t reliant on a single source. It’s also a great way to get your entrepreneurial spirit going, and an excellent way to begin creating a variety of income streams so that you aren’t so reliant on a single income source.
