Attn: Americans, Canadians, and Europeans:
Here is another great way to make money. It is car advertisements. Before you stop reading because you don't want your car to be fully covered (full car wrap) there are companies I will list where you can opt for a magnet or cling on. (Most people need to drive at least 1K/mo and live or work in a big city area that you drive to).

Just sign up, and if they need a person in your demographics then you're in luck. Apparently, I haven't been in that luck but I still sign up anyway just in case they need me or someone can't do it and I am next in line. Both the car wrap and magnets or cling ons are done by the company and will come off without damage to your car. Also, some of them offer free cars that all you have to do is insure them and pay for gas.

I would beware and never pay for a "membership" fee to get in a database for the possibility of your car being wrapped. With some companies you have to allow them to install a GPS tracker (not for your personal directions) so they can keep track of where you are going. When you sign up they ask you what day and what time you travel, for example Monday, Wednesday, and Friday you drive to school and Tuesday and Thursday you drive to work, and on Saturday you drive to the gym, etc.

Some companies require a contract for a year (could be more or could be less) and often times the stipulations require you to wash your car twice a month and meet once a month with a representative of the company that wrapped your car. If they ask you to have your car wrapped but you don't agree with the advertisement you can opt out. The variation in pay, such as $40-120 is dependent upon what the advertiser says.
