So, whether you have lots of disposable income and are bored, or you’re just interested in all the ways you can spend money without even heading out of your front door, then keep reading on.

Online shopping

Online shopping is incredible. Shopping for clothes is great because you don’t have to go into those poorly lit changing rooms, shopping for books is great because you can browse without someone who wants to get to the shelf you’re at breathing down your neck – basically, all shopping is better when there are fewer people involved!

Online shopping saw a huge increase in popularity during the pandemic as we were all confined to our homes, and that popularity has just increased even as we’ve come out of the pandemic.

People are spending more money than ever, all from the comfort of their own homes, and it’s pretty incredible to see.

Online casino games

There is a huge number of online instant withdrawal casinos that make it incredibly easy to enjoy a flutter and pit yourself against the house.

With sites for almost every casino game you can think of, from roulette to blackjack, you’re almost certainly going to find a game you like when browsing an online casino site.

Streaming services

Streaming services have grown more prolific in recent years, meaning we’re subscribing to more and more of them each year. With their own film productions going on and the FOMO of missing the latest Netflix series, it’s no wonder either.

Streaming online has come to almost replace the cinema too, with many films now being premiered on their streaming platform rather than in the theatres. Whether this is a good thing or not remains to be seen, but it is just another way we’re spending more and more money on online services.

Online sports betting

Like with the casino games, sports betting is easier than it has ever been in 2022. With a number of high-profile apps out there from well-known betting giants, you can wager on everything from Football, horseracing and rugby to Formula 1, snooker, darts or even something that little bit more niche.

Online courses

And finally, universities around the world now offer a range of short courses that you can take online. They do offer free versions of the course, but many of the paid courses allow you to expand your qualifications and add them to your CV.

And it’s not just universities, you can do courses in almost anything from language learning to coding, all online and for a small fee.

Final thoughts

The amount of money we invested online increased massively during the COVID-19 pandemic due to the inability to physically go anywhere, but this trend had already begun long before the pandemic.

There are a huge number of ways to spend money online, and there’s no getting away from the fact that we value convenience as a society.
