There's a few different ways. You can look into selling your blood plasma (just google "donating blood plasma"). They usually play movies, or you can watch movies or listen to music on your phone as long as you have headphones.

Some people make some chump change by doing surveys online, but that is really sketchy and the money for the time you put in is awful even if you find a legitimate service for it.

One thing I used to do is recycle scrap metal. If you have a pick up truck or a beater car that you don't mind getting trashed, you can go around and pick up metal objects along the side of the road and then take them over to a scrap metal recycling place. If you are savvy, you can sort out the different types of metals (aluminum, copper, etc) to get a higher rate for those metals. Its not as good a payout as it used to be, the tariffs have hurt the scrap metal market.

Investing is an option if you have cash on hand that you can do without for awhile. Long term investment in the stock market or short term investments into things like bonds are pretty good ideas.

Another option is to look on sites like craigslist for people wanting some kind of service for money that you might be good at, like handyman work, or proofreading, or so on. Some people might be looking for someone who can do things like deliver groceries, or whatever. You never know, but its worth looking at.

If you play an instrument, you could advertise to teach music lessons.

There's the various gig economy jobs if you don't want a traditional job.

You could host something like an AA or NA meeting at your place and have them pay you a fee for using your place.

You could make an investment like starting your own blog and trying to get enough of a reader base to bring in ad revenue, but its rather difficult with all the competing blogs out there. You'd have to find something fairly niche or have a profound expert outlook on a topic to maximize your odds.

If you want to lose some weight, there is a service out there where you basically bet you will lose X amount of weight over Y amount of time. If you succeed, you get paid. If you fail, you have to pay them. You are basically betting that you can do it and they are betting against you. You would say, want to lose 10 pounds over 3 months, they will set the odds they are willing to provide.

That's what I can think of off the top of my head. Hope this helps.
