Why will students want to make money while in school? It’s simple; students living away from their family spend a lot of money on their personal upkeep including feeding and accommodation. They also have to take care of planned and unplanned daily expenses in school which includes photocopying of school materials, buying of textbooks and payment of membership dues of student bodies they belong to.

Therefore, the need to make more money as a student arises especially given the high cost of living and economic recession in which the country is currently in.
