Looking for help

[Eric]

I know its been awhile, been busy lol. Well Ive decided to take some online classes. Since this town has crap for jobs, and I dont plan to actually go to school until next year, I have decided to do this to make a little money.

What I am planning to do is make some money online with this. I am just wondering what would be best to take? I was thinking maybe game design? This was I could sell games online and at least pay my bills and maybe have a little spending money.

I was just wondering what would be best to take in which I could make a little money online with it?

Also, I am now running linux on my laptop, as windows xp was f'd up to the max. Had tons of viruses and the computer store wanted $150 to fix it. I mean I can get a new windows cd for that! So they gave me a linux cd and I tried fixing windows but it was impossible. So I am now running linux, and I like it so far.

So any help on this subject would be much appreciated. I have been out of work for maybe 3 months now, and I need to make some money. So this is what I have planned. Take some online courses for some kind of computer subject, and try to make some money online to pay for bills etc. until I can find a job.

Thanks,
Eric

first - Linux > Windows any day - i use both at home and linux gives me the least amount of worry.

as for making money - game design is a good idea if you can keep things unique and if you can find sellers that will buy the designs or the games themselves. You may have to get things copyrighted just in case some idiots decide to steal something of yours.

As long as you can do something unique and something that people want, you shouldn't have a problem making some extra cash, but it's not that easy to get rich off the internet anymore, most of the markets are saturated but best of luck to you with whatever you plan to do.

Yeah I really am liking linux. And I dont really want to get rich parsay, just make enough to get by with bills mainly. And if I make a little spending cash, hey its a plus.

I just dont know what to go into yet. Its just something to get me by until next year when I actually do go to college
