While I'm attending this Medical Coding school (NOT under my own free will, btw) I'm living with parents but I won't have any money. I'm seriously not interested in going back into the work force regardless of what anyone here or out there has to say about it.

However I would earn a lil bit of money to tide me over until I fail to get a job in Medical Coding and finally prove to my parents once and for all that I'm not employable. I don't mind making as little as $100 a month. I just don't want to be broke before the Med Coding program ends in a year. Just as long as it's something I can do from home.

Sounds like you are already anticipating failure...

Dude, what do you geek on? What really makes you tick?

I've got a friend who likes to work on cameras. He buys old cameras cheap, refurbs them, and ebays them to collectors.

There's -always- something.

For that matter, get yourself a spray bottle, a little rolling cart (or rolling computer bag...), a bucket, a few clean towels and an industrial squeegie. Start at one end of a business district, and walk to the other, going in every store "Hey, can I wash your windows for $x each? (might be a buck, might be two if they're larger, may be less if they're smaller- figure out your own "estimated square footage estimate), and just keep it simple.

The good part about this sort of thing is that you KNOW when you're finished...

It's not the most creative thing, but hey...
