Life Hack: Easy Money for Broke College Students
College is difficult, that is a fact. Whether it's trying to get essays done before the 11:59 PM deadline, finding the motivation to wake up and look decent for our 8 AM class, or even trying to budget your eating habits (because YES, "Freshman 15" IS a thing). Most college students rely on quick, cheap and easy meals, such as Taco Bell, Chick-fil-a, McDonalds, Wendys, Dunkin' Donuts, Steak n' Shake... I could go on for hours. This is especially convenient because a lot of these places are open late, and for those late night procrastinators, food helps the frustration. But, even these cheap meals add up, and they don't look so 'cheap' after a while.

Lifehacks to Help You Become More Creative
What do you think of when someone says "creativity?" A messy studio, empty coffee cups, paint everywhere? A sketchbook full of unknown faces? An old typewriter, framed by dying sunlight, crumpled-up pages strewn across the floor? The point is, there is a tendency to think of "creativity" exclusively in terms of the fine arts, and as a particular kind of lifestyle. It is considerable, though, that creative people have an advantage in many other aspects of life, including business, law, the sciences—pretty much anything you could want to do. You should always bring in at least a little bit of creativity with you on your way, which is why it is useful to have lifehacks to help you become more creative immediately at you disposal. So, maybe you're a writer looking to up your game, or a businessman looking to bring some new perspective to the job, but whatever your story, a little abstract thinking goes a long way.

Common Cents: Financial Cheat Codes
The first question you need to ask is, do I need it, or can I get it cheaper? You can easily stay away from restaurants. Just learn how to make it yourself, and save a bundle. Next time you go into a restaurant and order food, take a look at what you received and ask yourself is this ten dollar meal worth an hour of minimum wage pay? It doesn't cross many people's minds that they could get that $10 meal five or more times if you just made it yourself. Take for instance a casual restaurant. You buy two pizzas and all of a sudden you've racked up $25. Why not buy six $4 pizzas from your grocer and do that meal three times over? You will leave way more cash in your pocket over time. Perhaps you buy pop with your meal for $2. You should really consider buying store brand and investing the difference into a soft drink stock. Which pays an annual 3+ percent annually. For $10 000 that you've spent on pop in your lifetime, you would now be receiving over $30 a month. It's not too late to start, but you can blame your financial burden on your bad habits.
