Hello everyone, I am a recent college graduate that is currently working 45-55 hours a week with a 2-3 hour daily commute. My daily schedule consists of me waking up at 6am to shower and get ready for work, be on the road by 7am, get to work by 8am, work until 1pm for lunch, return from lunch at 2pm, get off from work between 6-7pm (if not even later), get home between 7-8pm. Since I wake up at 6am, I need to be in bed by 10pm if I want 8 hours of sleep, this means that I have a whooping 2-3 hours of personal time after I get home from work. I have to eat and do everything else that I have to do in that 2-3 hours. The worst part is that I am trading to much of my time and energy to do this, and I am only getting paid chump change!
A Little Bit About Me. Also, Where Do I Start?

Hello everyone,
I am a recent college graduate that is currently working 45-55 hours a week with a 2-3 hour daily commute. My daily schedule consists of me waking up at 6am to shower and get ready for work, be on the road by 7am, get to work by 8am, work until 1pm for lunch, return from lunch at 2pm, get off from work between 6-7pm (if not even later), get home between 7-8pm. Since I wake up at 6am, I need to be in bed by 10pm if I want 8 hours of sleep, this means that I have a whooping 2-3 hours of personal time after I get home from work. I have to eat and do everything else that I have to do in that 2-3 hours. The worst part is that I am trading to much of my time and energy to do this, and I am only getting paid chump change!
Needless to say, my current situation is not a situation I want to be in for long. What is best way for me to generate additional streams of income given my lack of time from my current situation? I don't think I can just quit my job without securing some type of steady income first.
I have been reading up on methods of making money online, and I am not sure what is the best route for me to take is, and how to start on that route. I cannot be a Amazon affiliate because I live in Illinois, but I read that their commissions are low anyways (4%-8.5%). The other viable options seem to be AdSense and CPA. What do you knows think is the best way for me to go? What tools can I use? What proven methods should I follow?
If I can find a way to make $1 a day to start, I would consider that a success because then I would know what I am doing is working, and I will work on ways to increase that amount. If I manage to average $100 a day steadily, I think that would allow me to quit my current job and do this full time. Once I get to that level, I would focus on making even more money, $200 a day, $500 a day, $1,000 a day, with the sky being the limit!
I know I have to TAKE ACTION, but I need to know what to do first! I can't just throw knifes in the dark and hope I hit something.
