Here are Some Potential Side Hustles

Are you trying to leave the 9-5 job crunch? Do you want a steady second income? Or maybe, you just need a side hustle to keep you busy and utilize the free time when not at work.

Whatever the case might be – below is a list of some new and old side hustles that you can easily add to increase your income. So have a look and pick a side hustle (or all of them) that fit your personality –

1. Driving – Do you usually deal with boring evenings or nights? You can utilize that time to meet new and exciting people – as well as earn quite a buck while driving them around. Just sign up for services like Uber and Lyft. They do not impose any boundaries on when you work and where. So you’re always in control of your time and life.

2. Food delivery – With the likes of Uber Eats and Door Dash popping up in the market, you can easily earn some cash while delivering food from given restaurants to your area or office. You know – just turn on the app when you leave the office – and pick a delivery that matches your route. Of course, going another mile won’t hurt in this case.

3. Renting out your car – Do you work from home already? Own more than one vehicle? Maybe, you could pool your friends’ car to work? Or whatever. The thing is – there are companies like Turo and Getaround that allow you to rent out your car and earn some extra side cash – with no efforts on your part.

4. Blogging + affiliate marketing – You have heard of both before – and they both have more of a negative connotation – but if you combine the two – it can become one of the best cash cows with the some effort on your part. Maintaining a blog doesn’t require more than a couple hours a day – and it only lessens as your blog starts to get popular. Remember – you do not need millions of views to make money with affiliates. Every purchase counts.

5. Teaching English online – Are you a native speaker? Do you love talking and helping others? Got any teaching or tutoring experience (although it’s not always required)? There are many tutoring websites that allow Pro English Speakers to earn cash while helping kids and ESL learners with their language skills. You can again set your own hours – even your rates in some cases – and make money while doing what you love – meeting amazing people online.

6. Credit card rewards – Who doesn’t like to shop? Even if you do not believe in excessive shopping as a hobby thing – you do buy many things on a daily and monthly basis. So why not earn some reward points + cashback + financial security while doing that? There are many credit cards that cost nothing, charge almost no APR in the first few months, and offer up to 5% flat cashback and 30% discounts on selected purchases.
