All I Want for Christmas

Tweet

If I have to list down everything that I want to receive this Christmas, I would fill up a page or two of a regular-sized paper. On top of that list is a new computer. My HP netbook has been slowing down my work pace for the past months already. It’s very slow in loading up web pages. Even booting and rebooting it takes up a lot of time!

I should listen to my sister when she gives me her “this is how to speed up your computer" lecture. But I have a lot of things to “study” and learn lately, a brand new computer is my solution to my computer problem.

So yes, I want a new computer this Christmas. Any takers?

Christmas is a season of joy. But it is also a season of too much spending. So how can we solve the problem of going broke after the holidays? Think of money making ideas this Christmas season.

Here are some that you might want to try:

1. gift basket - Busy professionals does not have the time to go shopping for gifts. Take advantage of that and market this business to friends and family.

2. craft ornaments - Make unique crafts that can be used to decorate a home for a more Christmas-sy feel.

3. food catering services - Big families plan big parties. If you have the cooking skills and the ability to handle pressure, this business is for you.

4. car check-up - Families gather together during Christmas. Some people often travel long distance to be with their family. Car check-up and tune-up’s are necessary for this long travel. You can market your services to those on a tight budget.

5. freight forwarding - For the gifts to arrive at the right place, at the right time.

6. money lending - You can help, and earn a few, friends and family members who are on a tight budget.

7. event hosting - Not a shy person? Use that skill.

8. photo and video coverage - Have a high-end camera, offer to be the official photographer and videographer on family gatherings. You can partner this with #3 and #7 and earn more.

9. gift wrapping service - Give your services to people who doesn’t have the time to wrap their gifts.

10. venue leasing - Do you have a garden huge enough for family gathering, lease it this holiday season.

Happy Holidays and Good luck!
