The first comment was ‘Who said EarnSmart is for hustlers? I’m a rich kid and I’m in too!” while the second comment was “I’ll only join EarnSmart when a member buys a car.” So I obviously got quite interested with EarnSmart and immediately hopped onto google and started researching the venture.

The powerful association is responsible for collectively agitating for the students’ rights and grievances. All students pursuing an academic program at the University are bonafide members.
