☆ I used Twitter's $8 'verification' to impersonate a famous YouTuber and trick their fans. It only took 25 minutes to set up and showed me how dangerous this new feature will be.

Since Elon Musk took over, Twitter has rolled out "verification" for accounts with Twitter Blue. The Twitter Blue check mark has no identity verification, letting users impersonate famous people. It took me 25 minutes to set up a "verified" Twitter account under the name of a Youtuber with more than 1.3 million subscribers. Through a fake Apple ID, a VPN, a disposable email, and a masked debit card, I used Twitter's new Twitter Blue program to launch the account. Thanks to Elon Musk, Twitter's blue check mark can now be boughtWith Musk's takeover of Twitter, the website's Twitter Blue program is billed as a premium subscription service that goes for $8 per month.
☆ I sell feet pics on the side. Here's how I find buyers, set prices, and make sure no one can identify me.

Riley, 21, has been selling feet pics online for more than three years. I've been selling pictures of my feet online for more than three years now. I think people who look for feet pictures online just look for keywords like "feet pics" on Twitter and then message people from there. Once I began tweeting about selling feet pictures, my direct messages filled up with people wanting to buy pictures from me. To see how much they're willing to pay, I'll ask things like "How much is this video worth to you?"
☆ I work at Trader Joe's and turned my job into a TikTok account. It's boosted morale and deepened friendships among staff.

Christian Beltran, 22, has worked at Trader Joe's in Los Angeles for over a year. His "Christian from Trader Joe's" TikTok account has racked up 20,000 followers. A year and a half ago, I started working at Trader Joe's as a way to pay for my expenses while finishing college. If it's a video that reviews Trader Joe's products, a lot of the crew take part, so that takes longer to film. I don't know where my senior year will take me, but I know I'll be at Trader Joe's and on TikTok.
☆ I work in insurance by day and hunt ghosts by night. People think it must be scary — but investigating the paranormal isn't always what you see on TV.

She does private and public investigations, where she teaches some people how to use equipment and helps others get closure. I kept my heart and mind open to paranormal experiencesIn 2011, I actually auditioned to be part of a paranormal-focused television show. We met years before, when we were working on a different paranormal investigation together. We hold public investigations at businesses and museumsWe charge for public investigations, where we invite the public to join us during an investigation through tickets available for purchase. People think it must be scary to hunt ghosts, but the truth is, the spirits I believe I'm communicating with are very similar to us.
☆ I left a 6-figure law job due to depression. I always feared being a 'quitter' — but now I don't regret it.

Henna Choi, 28, left a high-paying job as a lawyer to pursue making TikTok videos. What I didn't know was that I would leave that job after just two years. In undergrad, I double-majored in women and gender studies and equity studies, with a focus on race and disability. Now that I'm on a break from my job, I'm freaking outThis is the first time in my adult life I've had this much unstructured time for myself. I share videos of my everyday life as a self-described "depressed lawyer," and I have more than 470,000 followers now.
☆ I work a second job to pay off $86,000 in student-loan debt. The cancellation helps, but I'll never get my 20s back.

Sarah had $86,000 in student loans by the time she graduated and qualifies for forgiveness. All the money I'd paid had gone toward the interest on the loans, and that really freaked me out. I ended up taking a second job as a contract worker to pay my loans. My brother is laser-focused on graduating and getting into his chosen field, so I think student debt is the last thing on his mind right now. Even if one day I paid off all my loans and 30 days later, all student loans were forgiven, I would still be happy.
☆ I'm a 'cart girl' on a golf course. I make good money and the tips are steady, but customers can get handsy.

Ellie Dressler, 20, works as a "cart girl" on a golf course, serving drinks. We're all over the app — young women who make their living driving a bar cart around a golf course and serving the golfers beverages. Then I drive around the golf course all day and serve people drinks. I've started doing a series on TikTok called "Ridiculous But True Stories of a Golf Cart Girl." Not bad for a cart girl.
