I am trying to find some supplemental work to help out right now since I am unable to go back to work yet and I honestly don't know when I will be able to. I have government checks coming in each month which is enough to just scrape by but I have nothing left over to get anything extra like eating out, buying gifts, and the like. I want to find something I can do for now to bring in an extra, say, $500 a month. Anything out there online right now worth trying?
While $500 a month isn't much to ask for, there is not much you can do online that can pay that much. I would recommend looking into freelance work. There are some websites that host freelance workers so you can sign up to them and offer a service. Outside of this, you can look into working from home as a call agent. You might be able to make $500+ doing that.
If you have any particular skill such as writing or drawing, offer your services on websites such as Fiverr. You can earn quite well on there.
Also have a look at Indeed for remote-only jobs, there's plenty out there.
There are plenty of skill based online sites where you can offer your skill for money. If you have a skill in drawing or painting, people will pay a decent amount for custom logos and graphics.
