Business7 Business You Can Start With Little Or No Cash by Booktree(op): 10:52am On Jun 20, 2019
Being a successful businessperson and entrepreneur is about taking advantage of every opportunity that comes your way. You have to be creative and find different ventures that can generate revenue, even if it’s for a limited amount of time. Moreover, diversifying your efforts will help increase your chances of success without necessarily multiplying your workload.

Because mobile devices and technology have become the norm, there are now dozens of different business ideas you can start either for free or for a very small investment. Not only this, thanks to the available tools, these can help you generate revenue without requiring much work on your behalf.

Here are 7 business you can start doing for free by barely lifting a finger:

1) Become a translator
https://saacr.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/translate.jpg

Mastering more than one language poses a huge advantage, especially in the globalized society we live in. If you’re fluent in more than one language, you could explore providing translation services that help companies translate documents and establish effective communication channels with other organizations. If you have experience in a particular field, such as law or medicine, you can even specialize in providing technical translations. Providing quality services that use all appropriate terms and jargon can help you build a name within your industry.

2). Data entry specialist

https://saacr.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/Data-entry-specialist.jpg

There are many basic tasks that don’t require many skills but are necessary for a company to operate. Data entry is one of those tasks that doesn’t require much skill but is widely available in huge volumes. Although the payout isn’t always stellar, the sheer volume and ease of work make it an attractive gig you can complete in your spare time without using much brain power.

3). App tester

https://saacr.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/App-tester.jpg

If you have a smartphone, you can sign up to become an app tester. Application developers often need to test their products on different devices, models, and software versions.
All you have to do is download the app, install it on your phone and test drive it. Although you have to pay to download some applications, most developers will refund you the cost of the app when they pay you for your services.

EducationHow To Get A Loan In Five Minutes by Booktree(op): 10:01pm On Jun 15, 2019
Getting a loan in 2019 is very easy as long as you have a good credit score ( You are not owing any company or bank). You can visit CRC credit bureau to check your credit score. Before we continue, here are some things you need to have before you can get a quick loan from any company.

Bank Verification Number (BVN) : This is an eleven digit number that gives you a unique identity that can be verified across the Nigerian Banking Industry (not peculiar to one Bank). If you have registered for it, you can dial *565*0# on your phone to check yours or you can visit your bank to register for it. Your BVN is one of the most important thing to have before applying for a loan.

Mobile Number: You need to have an active mobile number preferably one that has been active for about 6 months and also connected to your BVN.

Call and Message History: Most companies that grants quick loans to users rely mostly on your message history to know the amount of money that will be loaned to you. One of the things they check most is the debit or credit alert from your bank. The higher the amount i.e the debit or credit alert, the higher the amount of money that will be loaned to you. If you don’t have any message history, your loan application might be denied (70% probability).

Bank account: i would have removed this but i decided to add it. you need a bank account to receive the loan when its approved. it can be yours or that of a friend.

Next we will be looking into some companies that are willing to give you a loan and at the end, i will tell you the best company�. You know these companies are into the business of making more money by granting loans. Some of them charge a lot of interest on their loans while a few charge a reasonable amount

Major Companies that Grants Quick Loan
1). Palm Credit:



This is one of the companies i recommend. You have a 90% chance of getting a loan the first time you apply. They offer loans ranging from #2,000 to #100,000 which can be repaid within a period of 14 – 180 days depending on the amount you receive. One good thing about them is that the amount you are qualified to get can be increased instantly if you are willing to tell them more about yourself like uploading your drivers license, phone number, business details, family details etc. You can download their app from any app store or click on the link below to register immediately and get your first loan

Only three steps to Your loan: No paper work, no collateral
– Register
– Get Approval
– Disbursement to your bank account

2) KwikMoney



This is an instant loan service provided by banks, mobile network operators, and technology companies. Let me simplify it for you. This is a company that works together with banks and mobile network operators. If you have an old active sim, they can offer you a loan even without you requesting. This means they monitor transactions going on in your bank and sim. i never knew this company existed till i got one strange text from a strange number saying that i am qualified for a loan. i clicked on the link attached to the text message and within 5 minutes i got an alert. The only thing they request for is your phone number. This simply means that if you have an active SIM card of at least 6 months old, you are likely to get a loan. all you need to do is visit their website and apply. if you get a reply that you are not qualified, you can leave a comment below and i will assist you. They offer loans ranging from N5,000 to N200,000. The amount you will get starts from the least amount and rises to the top as long as you keep a good credit score.

Dial *561# to get started

3. FairMoney

Education10 Amazing Books Every Engineering Student Should Read by Booktree(op): 2:56pm On Jun 02, 2019
Here is a list of 10 amazing books every engineering student should read. This books will make you a better engineer as you take on the engineering Course

1.The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People— Stephen Covey
This has to be one of the best books I have ever purchased. I try to read it at least once per year, because it really is that good.

This book gives you an excellent framework for the way to approach your career like a world-class individual.

The tips in this book are simple, open-ended, and easy to follow, but are the kind of things you wish you would do all the time, but don’t. Just as the most important things in life you likely learned in Kindergarten, this book lays it out simply, straight-forward, and challenges you to revisit the basics. If you want to become better than your peers, you just need to master the basics, and everything else will follow.

Just as in an engineering degree, the things you learn in your first 2 years are fundamental building blocks to the things you learn in your last 2 years. Ultimately, if you can master the basics, the really complex systems can easily be broken down. If you fail to master the basics, it’s an uphill battle.

I read this book at least once per year to revisit these important lessons, and to continually build my framework for approaching problems.




2. The Four Hour Chef — Tim Ferriss


The 4-Hour Chef: The Simple Path to Cooking Like a Pro, Learning Any Skill & Living the Good Life
As an engineering student, your brain likely works in the same way mine does — analytical, detailed, pattern-oriented, logical — and this book is as if someone wrote a cookbook for engineers (although that does exist). Tim takes something quite complicated and mysterious, and breaks it down into manageable, bite-sized steps.

For engineers, this process of taking the complicated and making it manageable, is something you will do daily, in all aspects of your life. I have somehow figured out a way to optimize my morning routine through this very thought process.

But more than that, this book outlines some key frameworks for thinking about structuring complicated problems, and optimizing learning of new and difficult concepts. He applies this particularly to food, but his techniques apply to anything.

If you’re going to be an engineering student, which likely leads you to being an engineer for the next 30+ years of your life, you had best learn to cook. It is easier than multi-body dynamics, and as quick to learn as any physics concept. Learning to feed yourself, properly, and doing so 2–3 times per day will not only make you a better cook, it will make you a better engineer.

In my second year, the wheels fell off. I wasn’t eating properly, I was stressed out, I stayed up late doing nothing of importance, and my grades started to suffer. More than that, I felt physically, emotionally, and mentally ill. I decided to make a change.

I did two things: eat 3 good meals per day, and get at least 7 hours of sleep per night (I aimed for 8, but having some breathing room is important).

If you aren’t eating, sleeping, and taking care of your body properly, your grades will suffer.

So the solution? Learn to cook. It’s cheaper, healthier, fun, and gives you a worthwhile break from all that studying, while teaching you a new set of skills.

I cannot recommend buying this book highly enough — everything from snacks to dinner parties, it has you covered. Only want to eat the same 3 things everyday? Perfect, it will teach you how to make those things in 30 minutes or less.

When you approach any difficult problem, you have a framework of previous experience, problem solving techniques, and information that would be useful given to you. Why not approach cooking the same way?



3. Zero to One — Peter Thiel

This is the more important book on start-ups, economics, business design, and the future of tech that has ever been written.

This book fundamentally changed the way I think about business. That isn’t to say you shouldn’t read the vast enormity of business books out there (because you really should), I am just saying that if you ever are considering going into business for yourself, as an entrepreneur or otherwise, you should read this book.

Andrew Yang, founder of Venture for America, wrote a book called “Smart People Should Build Things”, which I have linked below. I think it is a good accompaniment to Zero to One, and do fundamentally believe that if you have the skills to create something new, you should.

More so, we talk often about the two fundamental concepts in productivity: efficiency and effectiveness. You are efficient if you “do things right”, but you are effective if you “do the right things”. Zero to One is all about doing the right things.

Don’t know whether your idea is actually a game-changer, or if it’s just noise to the signal? Read this book and find out.





4. Engineer to Win — Caroll Smith
Caroll Smith is legendary in the high-performance racing (Formula 1) community, and has written half-a-dozen books on the topic. This one in particular I find super interesting.

If you’re a Mechanical, Aerospace, Mechatronics, Systems, or Materials engineering student, this will be doubly applicable given the nature of the research, but it is still relevant for any discipline. The commitment to performance at a world-class level is clearly demonstrated, and in particular this book talks about the process of engineering world-class results.

If you’re serious about becoming a world-class engineer, this is a must-read. It will not only teach you a lot about racecar design, which has applications to many other fields, but how to engineer systems at a game-changing, world-class level, and what is involved in that process
