I have to admit, I thought it would be more. But still, as of 2019, the old Nigerian prince scam was still raking in over $700,000.

Yes, of course you'd like to receive millions of clams for doing absolutely nothing, but that's not usually how life works.

You can indeed earn some clams for modest amounts of effort, but not Nigerian-prince levels of clams.

There are lots of completely legitimate ways of earning immediate dough online. Again, we're not talking live-in-a-New-York-penthouse levels of dough, but for people barely getting from paycheck to paycheck, these ways can make the difference.

Matt Garrett, who's kept his eye on things like this for a long time, has put together a whole bunch of them.

They're mostly simple things that literally anyone can do. For that reason they won't earn you a million smackers, but they can be the difference between a desperate month and an acceptable month.
