    275 CLEAN THE OUTSIDES OF WINDOWS. The risk factor for this one goes up substantially based on the height of the windows that you're cleaning. If you're standing on the ground, the risk level is around .01. But hang from the top of a thirty-story building and you've got yourself a solid 4 on the risk factor. Logically, the money also increases with height.

    276 WORK AS A HOUSEKEEPER. While most of us manage to keep our houses moderately clean and neat, there are people who consider housekeeping a chore beneath them. Use their snobbery to your advantage. With little initial investment (think cleaning supplies), you can start a lucrative housekeeping business. Whether or not you wear the French maid outfit is up to you.

    277 START AN ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY HOUSECLEANING SERVICE. It's never been cooler to be green. But Kermit was right — it's not easy, nor is it cheap. By using environmentally responsible cleaning supplies, you can save the environment and charge more for your services. Keep your costs down by making your own cleaning supplies from ingredients such as baking powder, vinegar, lemon, and cornstarch. Visit EarthEasy.com to learn about earth-friendly cleaning.

    278 CHARGE FOR A SPRING-CLEANING SERVICE. There's cleaning and then there's spring cleaning . If you want to make some extra money, make this a nude spring-cleaning service. It's a good deal!

    279 CLEAN CARPETS. There are some spills that a normal vacuum is just not equipped to clean. Buy a nice wet-vac and then rent out your services to the neighborhood. This is especially good for parents of small children who create messes 24/7.

    280 CLEAN BATHROOMS. Even people who like to clean don't usually like to clean bathrooms. If you advertise yourself as solely a bathroom cleaner you may get more customers than you'd expect since you'll be focusing on a room that people won't mind paying to have cleaned.

    281 ORGANIZE OTHERS' CLOSETS. It can be hard to face a closet full of crap. Somehow, though, it's easier when it's not your own crap that you're faced with. When you're organizing if you find “junk,” suggest to the owner that you sell it for them on eBay (see entry 150) — and take a cut of course.

    282 PUT IN AIR-CONDITIONING UNITS. Is there anything more unpleasant than installing AC units in the oppressive heat? Probably not, so charge the hell out of other people and do it for them. Advertise your services in the lobbies of apartment buildings, where it's unlikely residents have central air.

    283 TAKE OUT AIR-CONDITIONING UNITS. For people who labored with putting the units in three months ago and cursed everything and everyone in their life during the process, you're there. Be the guy (or girl) to remove the AC unit come autumn and put it back into storage. You might be able to set up an installation gig for the end of spring — as long as you don't drop the unit out the window while removing it.

    284 HANG PAINTINGS. Some people just cannot get a painting to hang straight, no matter how many times they hold the level up and step back and look at it. And finding studs in the wall? Forget about it. Help the unhandy by hanging paintings (and by help I mean charge for the service).

    285 PATCH A DRIVEWAY. Potholes are hard on cars. Paying a professional service to patch them is hard on the wallet. Take out the middleman by offering your patching services directly to the customer. It's not hard to figure out who might be in need; just take a stroll around your neighborhood and keep your eyes on the prize holes.
