You’d be surprised what some people are willing to do to earn $5.  Fiverr.com is a twitter-esque site that enables users to log on and post things that they’re willing to do to pocket a little bit of extra cash. Users can simply browse through these entries and take anyone up on their offers. The majority of these requests are legitimate, and the model is innovative and clever. The entries are formatted identically (“I will ___________ for $5) and are very entertaining to browse through. Given ample time, I still doubt that I’d be able to find anywhere else online where I could personally pay someone 5 bucks to revise my resume, create a custom flipbook from a video file, record a movie preview-style voiceover for my video, give me a digital makeover, etc. The flexibility is astounding the potential is limitless. Fiverr.com effectively unites unique suppliers with obscure customers. In addition to the legitimately helpful entries, there exist a handful of hilarious gems as well. The following is a list of things that people are willing to do for $5 on Fiverr.com:

I will let you sleep on my couch and watch movies with me for $5
I will sing 5 out of tune Irish songs to you for $5
