Make Money With Stuvia
This money-making opportunity will make you regret why you did not take down notes during your university years. Stuvia allows you to sell your notes, essays, thesis, summaries, study guides to other students. Can you do this? Is it legal? Apparently, it is as long as you created them yourself and the material is not something handed to you by your professor.
If you created it, then you hold the copyright. This idea came up in The Netherlands some 8 years ago and has helped many students pass (and earn). Next time you are thinking about sleeping in class, remember Stuvia… pay attention… take notes, sell, and earn!
The notes you purchased with Stuvia can be accessed at any time on your phones, computers, or tablets. You can buy notes that are specific to a subject at your university, how cool is that? You do not need to take notes, you only need to listen.
You can start by signing up with the website then select the university and the level you are in. You can start uploading notes immediately, no screening or qualifying needed. If someone buys your notes, Stuvia takes 30% of the price and the rest goes to you. You can set any price for your materials, the minimum is £2.5. The payout request is every Monday if you reach a minimum of £10. Imagine the possibilities of this gig if you are able to sell notes to a batch of 300 students or more.
