Standing around and letting university or college students draw you sounds like it's both boring and embarrassing, until you realize that someone's willing to pay you to do it. Your time is worth money. Most classes that go looking for subjects for their students or members to paint will pay something in the region of $15 per hour for you to be their muse.
This might not make you rich on its own, but it's a great way of making extra money that you can fit around your working life. Work regularly with one or two institutions in your area that require life models, and you'll soon earn enough to buy your way into one of the other money-making methods on this list! Plus, when you think about it, it's kind of flattering. You could always offer to buy back some of the better work and hang a portrait of yourself on the wall.
Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.
So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.
Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
