Ideas for an Aussie Daddy overseas - What can I do to make some AU$ while I live overseas?

HI Guys

just wondering if you may be able to enlighten me with any ideas on how I could make some aussie cash to pay my aussie credit card while I am living in Hungary, please. We came here because the low cost of living for a young family, My little girl was born last month :-)

I am a member of this site for almost 4 years and I always got great tips and bargains from great people. I would appreciate if you were able to share any ideas. Thank you, Cheers!

  • Im confused. You live in Hungary but you want to make some money in Oz but you said you came here but ….? If your in Hungary I'm assuming your looking for a remote access job? If thats the case you would need some skillsets like web development or something? Either that or find something in Hungary that has high demand & price in Australia and set up a shopfront and mail it customer (highly unlikely). If I am mistaken and you are in Australia it really depends on your skillset. The mining industry pays well.

    I would write a blog about what you are doing with articles on visa issues, local real estate listings, healthcare, food etc, everything an Aussie who was thinking of moving to Hungary would want to know. Make money from google advertising and affiliate links to suitable Amazon books etc.
    Next step would be to make a short ebook pulling all the info together and selling it for $15 or so.
    Update it every few days with posts about your life - things like shopping in the market, catching the bus, visiting the doctor, plus posts on touristy things you do for fun.
    Become the Aussie expert on moving to Hungary with a young family.
    And don't spend anymore on your Aussie credit card!

      Dude, well done & very concise…you should actually flesh this excellent advice out into a short ebook yourself & make a few bucks! :)

    Or find a product over there that you can send to Aus for sale. I would be looking at old motorbikes, cars etc, that are cheap there but dear here. I made $5k on selling a Norton I sourced in the USA so its possible. I would be looking at older Italian and German bikes as an example. Research prices here in Aus and then look for the biggest price differences on models. A tip is that if it was made before 7/1975 it doesn't need anything for compliance. Oh an another tip is stock standard numbers matching always beats ANY modifications.

  • I got the impression that he is living in Hungary now, for the lower cost of living, but that he used to live in Australia and has an Australian credit card with an outstanding balance. He wants to set something in motion that will "automatically" make money in Australia to pay off his card.

    Or I could be reading this all wrong, lol.

    I can't think of anything legal that would reliably make more money than a credit card interest rate.
