    2-3 $ a day? $2-$3 a day? Is it even worth it?
    If you understand what you're doing, you're not learning anything.

    I mean $2 or $3 in a day. I know its not that much but something is better than nothing. I'm not a Very good Programmer so How could I expect more than this amount !! Is it possible to earn more than this only by writing C codes..??

    Actually, nimitzhunter might have an idea. It's unlikely any software firm will hire someone with no formal education, but lazy college students are desperate. I'm not sure about how you could go about setting it up, though.

    Have you tried applying to a freelance programmer agency? I've never had any experience with them, maybe someone else has some insight to offer.

    That's actually a pretty good idea he's giving you. There is always money to be made in working for the lazy. It's not something you can put on your CV (unless you spin it real hard), but it will put some money in your pocket.

    hi Gaurav, every is suggesting u the same ...do sth for lazy people ! It's really a good idea. But if u will be doing others homework for others it's not gonna help u very much,as u can earn sm money bt u will lose ur precious time,so do sth which can give money,work experience, and u can mention it sm where.
    So,if u really think u are a good programmer then why don't u do sm minor project and sell it......it will give u money,a lot of xprnce and u can mention those project in ur cv :-)
    What it would require is not only ur programming skill bt a good knowledge of other papers, and a lot of hard work.

    Take at the "Rent a Coder" website, and bid on those offers. There should be loads, and they're all underpaid as you ask for.
