Awhile ago I saw this wacky ad on craigslist about jobs for teachers in the summer:

Teachers: Great Summer Job   Own your own ICE CREAM TRUCK business. Great money, easy work, low hours.  Teachers, great summer job. Each year the clients build as they keep coming back. This is your chance to own your own business that will pay you every year, for as many years as you work it. We will train you, give you two freezers for storage. Everyone loves the ice cream man. high income for few hours of work. For credit worthy person we will consider financing the purchase. My family has done great with this business. Give me a call to talk more about it. 555 XXX-XXX

Easy work? Ha! 

Before I had ventured into the wonderful world making additional income outside of my teaching job, I might have considered this “easy work” ice cream venture for about 2.7 minutes. Some teachers who haven’t been informed of the true beauty of ways to work from home might seriously consider eeking around town purveying ice cream during their cherished summer vacations.

I am not opposed to ice cream, ice cream trucks or even ice cream truck music. I am sure that OWNING a fleet of ice cream trucks could be quite lucrative (but managing them could be one horrible ice cream headache).

Easy work?

Driving around in a giant, creaky truck serving up frosty popsicles sounds unfun. Bending over to lug cases of Fudgsicles, falling into a freezer, counting change from dirty hands, and listening to ice cream truck music ALL DAY long does NOT sound like easy work. It sounds like one of the worst jobs for teachers in the summer (or ever). It’s simpler to start this summer working online part-time (and be able to spend quality time with your own family and children).

P.S. You might be asking, “How can I make money this summer?“ Learn more about working online this summer part-time (so you can still enjoy the sunshine and your coveted summer vacation)  check out what I’m working on this summer.

P.P.S. My partner Jerry test drove the program and made $3,444 within his first 27 days. That’s more than most teachers make in a month. Not bad.  If you’d like to see how we do it, go here now and we’ll have a chat.
