Martin Lewis is back again with his latest Money Saving Expert (MSE) newsletter. And with it, a genius way to make real cash money while playing video games.
Many of us have been there, with the occasional 'I'd be a millionaire if I could get paid to play this game' comment as we win another game of Battle Royale on Fortnite (or is that just me?).
Well it's a reality, and Lewis and his MSE team are here to explain exactly how it can be done.

And we shouldn't be surprised when we think about it, given just how valuable his advice is to millions of Brits on an almost daily basis.
Whether it's the time he warned people about using air fryers over ovens or his April warning to 'check your payslip now', Lewis is the king of financial advice no matter how big or small the issue that's being discussed.
When he's not telling us how to get around the latest Spotify price hike, he's putting together the weekly newsletter he sends out with his MSE team.
Despite selling the MSE website for £87 million back in 2012, Lewis retained editorial control of the content being put out by its staff.
In the latest newsletter, emailed to subscribers today (1 May), Lewis' team issued several 'quick, quirky or fun ways to put 'cha-ching' in your pockets'. In other words, a solid handful of ways to earn cash easily.

It comes as millions of us have received a welcome cash boost this month without doing anything.
"There are two ways to please your pockets. We normally focus on spending less, but this note is about how to earn a bit more. Now, let's not over-egg the pudding, we're talking £10s or at best £100s here, and it won't always happen, but we wanted to bring out some hidden fun ways to get a bit extra," the newsletter says.
One of the ways was how you can earn up to £400 by playing the latest video games being released.
The MSE team says: "Before big new games hit the shelves, firms need to test them out.

"You'll usually need to go somewhere for a few hours to do it, but it typically pays £50 to £200."
Research-i is behind the project and in fact occasionally pays as much as £400 per session, depending on the games being trialled.
MSE says: "On some projects, you can even bring a mate to play games together.
"Most sessions are in-person, because gaming firms like to keep their cards close to their chests to minimise the risk of leaks. However, Research-i also recruits for other topics (eg, travel, haircare), which are more likely to be remote."

A list of its current projects show testing that pays up to £625.
