Making Money On the Road

What are some ways to afford the road life. I think a van would be the best bet, motorcycle would be great but that would mean camping everywhere and less safety. I could hit shows and see this great country. But i would still need to afford bills even though i would have very few.
Idk how to get a roadie gig. I think setting up some internet thing becaus3 i am computer savy. I dont want to have to rely on anything illegal.
Any other ideas? Anyone out there doing it?

Watch Bear Grills, he's got some bad ass survival techniques. Seen him drink his piss once. And he used a camel carcass as a tent one time. Be creative

youtube, self publishing with amazon, selling physical products with amazon, etsy, taking paid surveys (makingsenseonfcents.com) has some good survey sites, affiliate marketing, adsense websites, freelance writing and freelancing in general with upwork.com, the list goes on.
look into digital nomads and digital entrepreneurship

Checked out upwork.com, never heard of it thanks for turning me onto it. I have no college education but I grew up using computers and constantly building/upgrading my own. It's wild people will pay people to set up a simple website or network or even just installing software.
Unfortunately I have no college education. I've constantly self taught myself all sciences and grew up in the great outdoors. Experienced working with metals, wood, fire, operating heavy equipment.... lots of wrenching.
Edit: i need to find some hippies and be a roadside bus mechanic. But hippies dont have money...

I was a carnie for 6 years. That's a great way to just say fuck it and get away from 'real' society. I got to put together machines all the time and I traveled all over Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Tenn. and Kentucky. New town every week. It's a lot of work but it payed pretty good. All cash.
Or you could go to rainbow fests or something and save up for an r.v. half full of ramen noodles and bounce around. You could trade ramen noodles for shiny rocks and stuff and maybe berries.
Become a Jehovah's witness? Become a truck driver? Buy a camera and sell pics of the road to magazines. Make a really good forum or blog and post ads and make money while you lounge around in an r.v.

time is money, people will pay for anything. I hire philipino virtual assistants for ~3/hr which effectively free my time up to only have to focus on the tasks that take the highest amount of creativity and thought processes. i suggest you read the 4 hour work week by timothy farris

That sounds cool. Did you have to drive your own vehicle? Howd you get into that job?
I like the photography idea.

Work force or labor ready.... Every big city has it. Work and get paid the same day. They take 10%. You decide when you want to work. Leave with anywhere from 80 -140 a day. Perfect for your situation.
