Do you think I should take on a second job while attending college?

Question

I really need more money to save for an apartment I want to get in the near future. I work full time as an administrative assistant for $13.00 and hour 40 hours a week. In the fall I am attending three night courses at a community college.

I am not sure where I would even be able to fit a second job? Any suggestions? Thanks ; )

Answer 1

Wow, you're quite busy. As a teenager I'm also very busy myself, but I'm thinking of a second job too. I advise you to maybe put your money into a reliable and trustworthy bank with high interest, maybe that could get you a few more.

Do you work weekends? Maybe you could get a part time job . but remember to make time for yourself as well, respect yourself and make sure you don't wear your self out.

Good luck!

Answer 2

No.  If you doing it just to make more money, I recommend you don't take on a second job while attending college.

It is important to have both an education and work experience. The only reasons I would recommend a second job is if it provide experience in your chosen field or if it a job you love to do (something you do anyway, even if they didn't pay you); otherwise, you are better off focusing of completing your college requirements and getting your degree.
