I just got a side gig of showering a senior. One hour M, W and F in the morning. Taking over for her shower lady who will be out for med reason. Then I found out she just lives down the street from me. Slot of seniors needs help like that.
Don't forget these side hustles... hunting and fishing supplements the food budget. My husband has bagged two deer already this season and will be saving us money on buying meat. :)
Wow, I never imagined 30 hours a week for a few YouTube videos, you should do a vlog showing the “behind the scenes” We appreciate you sharing all of your knowledge
Hope and Larry.. probably my favourite internet couple, your humble and loving relationship is a true inspiration❤ Shalom from Israel
I tried a bunch of side gigs like mystery shopping, transcription, proofreading, copywriting, blogging, surveys, personal tasks, stock photography, etc...most turned out to be not worth the time or pennies earned. Finally, I found online reselling. Once you list your items, it's practically passive income. Now I earn more than I did working for someone else, set my own schedule and spend just a few hours packing and shipping orders twice a week. On average, I earn 10X what I paid for the items I sell.
Retired nurses or stay home mom could cut toenails for elderly. They dont want spa prices just trims bc of age or arthritis. I have paid $10 or $15 and schedule is flexible.
I have a close friends whose 20 something son housesits all the time. Mostly for family and close friends, a great way to make some extra cash.
Got paid £200 pw for using my home for hosting 2 to 3 French children, sometimes teachers, whilst on holiday in the Uk. Did it for a year to go to Australia. Had so much fun but at 77 I’ve decided it’s time to retire.
The old side gigs/ hustles are now survival hustle, it’s not always extra it’s necessary to make ends meet, I’m a substitute at a local school, it helps.. if you have food insecurity you can work jobs in the cafeteria and they do offer a free meal while working. I can pick and choose the days I work by what is offered. It’s is something to be consider.😊
I am a reading teacher. I privately tutor as a side gig. Half hour $30...and I love it😊
Coles here has a rewards card that you can earn points get towards 10 dollars off your next shop but they also have surveys. I do one survey a day and this month I have got enough points for 30 dollars to spend in the store. I know I am not getting paid but I'm getting free food so to speak. It's what I do to cover my food bill
I take clothing that is gently used to a consignment store and acquire credit in the store or i can get a check.
My friend’s husband goes to thrift stores and finds guitars, refurbishes them and sells them.
Cool insights thanks so much
Work in produce at a grocery. Cutting, putting things out on shelves, cleanup a few hours daily. Use reward points for extra food items there and get an employee discount. Not eady work, but helps.
Can you do a book review of The Complete Tightwad Gazette? You could do a video for each article topic and what your view is.
I forgot one. I make dinner for a friend and she pays me a small fee. (This depends on the health regulations where you live, of course). If you make food for 4 people a week, at 25 bucks a pop, it's 100 bucks. Is it the most? No. But, I stay home, so I am cooking dinner anyway for my own family.
I often have an extremely hard time even finding people who can afford to pay me to do little jobs
My daughter gives piano lessons. This has been a help to her. 💰
