Amazing video, A friend of mine referred me to a financial adviser sometime ago and we got to talking about investment and money. I started investing with $150k and in the first 2 months, my portfolio was reading $274,800. Crazy right!, I decided to reinvest my profit and get more interesting. For over a year we have been working together making consistent profit just bought my second home 2 weeks ago and care for my family.
Hi. I’ve been forced to find additional sources of income as I got retrenched. I barely have time to continue trading and watch my investments since I had my second child. Do you think I should take a break for a while from the market and focus on other things or return whenever I have free time or is it a continuous process? Thanks
@@Anderson-56 However, if you do not have access to a professional like JUDITH ANN PEACE, quitting your job to focus on trading may not be the best approach. It is important to consider all options and seek guidance from reliable sources before making any major decisions. Consulting with an AI or using automated trading systems can also be helpful in managing investments while balancing other commitments
@@Ruth-ud Oh please I’d love that. Thanks!

If you are planning for retirement Here are some key pointers. Firstly, kick-start your savings early to benefit from compounding. The longer your money has to grow, the better. Secondly, make the most of retirement accounts like 401(k)s and IRAs, especially if your employer offers a matching contribution - it's essentially free money. Thirdly, diversify your investments across different assets to mitigate risk. Think stocks, bonds, and real estate.
Great advice for retirement planning! Starting early and taking advantage of employer-sponsored plans can make a huge difference in the long run. And diversifying investments is crucial for managing risk. Thanks for sharing these valuable tips!
Spot on! Planning for retirement is crucial, and these pointers are gold. Diversifying investments is a key strategy plus, having an investment expert by your side can really help navigate the complexities and optimize your financial plan.
Absolutely! Diversifying investments is crucial for long-term success. Having a fiduciary has been transformative. She navigates market fluctuations, identifies opportunities, and keeps me on track for retirement. Her tailored advice boosts confidence and informed decisions. Trusting her skills brings peace of mind, ensuring my future is secure.
That's truly remarkable. I hope you don't mind pointing me towards her direction.
I don't mind, she's Sophia Elaine. One of the finest portfolio managers in the field.
Remember when our grandad had a wife, 2 kids, a car, a house and could go on a nice vacation once year while only working 1 job for 40 hours a week? Those were the good ol’ days! 😂
You can do the same thing… you just need 8 years of college, 2 jobs and a couple of loans 😂
You still can if you live simply and don’t live in a big city
It’s called Rosie recollection. There was plenty of poverty and issues back then. Today 30% of kids are born out of wedlock and that is what causes a lot of issues.
What kind of grandad you have if he worked only 40 hours in those years …
and only made 20-30k a year...
Families used to live off of one income now it’s taking two incomes and side hustles. I don’t think this is good for society to continue to live like this.
While I agree people also have far more possessions.
It’s going to collapse. A secular, anti-community, anti-social, materialistic society is destined to fall. It’s not sustainable.
It isn’t but it’s what we got
its like no one actually watched this video. These are gigs that are suggestions in order to GET OUT OF DEBT. You dont take on debt and suddenly you've got a whole pile of money just sitting around
Families didn’t used to have new iPhones, PlayStations, or cable and streaming services, taking on credit card debt was frowned upon, and people generally kept their cars after they were paid off. The quality of items was also better back then so things lasted longer. Things have definitely changed and it is tough financially, but it’s not exactly apples to apples when it comes to consumer spending habits
6. Drug dealing

DEA has joined the chat.
Exactly. Set your own schedule and never pay a penny in taxes. Who wouldn't want that?
SO sad that we've gotten to where both spouses have to work and have side hustles to try to get ahead.
“Get ahead”… you always had to do extra to get ahead this is not new, quit dramatizing it
@@TheGrim101well said
Not sad just reality you either do something about it or you don’t. You either want to get ahead or you stay average.
@@TheGrim101 My dad was a firefighter and my mom was a stay at home mom, and they retired having their home paid for and a good retirement portfolio on one income, plus my dad worked 24 hours and was off 48 so he had a great work life balance. So there was a time, not so long ago when one income families could get ahead.
Imagine what it's like when you're single
I'm 54 and my wife and I are VERY worried about our future, gas and food prices rising daily. We have had our savings dwindle with the cost of living into the stratosphere, and we are finding it impossible to replace them. We can get by, but can't seem to get ahead. My condolences to anyone retiring in this crisis, 30 years nonstop just for a crooked system to take all you worked for.
@@Christina-Gisela That's actually quite impressive, I could use some Info on your FA, I am looking to make a change on my finances this year as well
@@Christina-Gisela The crazy part is that those advisors are probably outperforming the market and raising good returns but some are charging fees over fees that drain your portfolio. Is this the case with yours too?
@@Christina-Gisela I will give this a look, thanks a bunch for sharing.
I retired this month or took early social security. I work part time as a bus aide the pay is not good but it’s a steady small check to help me cover the bills
@@yomoma6141yeah… this scam threads are so annoying!
I am an assistant manager at a credit union, make about $54k a year. My side hustle is selling sports cards on ebay and working part time as an usher at a minor league baseball park. Those side gigs bring me about another $12k a year and they are fun to do.
How do you make money selling sports cards? I was going to try and flip them and it's damn near impossible to find people willing to sell under market value.
Baseball cards are fun! I spend way too much on them. But I can because I am debt free!
12k is that gross? Or net? You gotta pay about 30% on taxes based on your state.
@@SaviorKnight thats total sales (profit is less) only have to pay taxes on the profit.
@@t206kid and if you get cash, I've heard you don't pay taxes on that. Lol
Isn't it wild how everyone is just expected to have more than one job anymore? Instead of demanding that companies pay fairly, we just get second and third jobs like that's normal.
If companies paid fairly, American workers would make two dollars an hour
@amireallythatgrumpy6508 How fragile our memories are. You're labor used to have value in the marketplace. Somehow, we have forgotten this and just accepted the fabel that we are lazy if we don't work 2+ jobs.
@@joemurchie Well Americans are incapable of remembering anything that happened more than a minute ago
If people didn't live above their means then they wouldn't have to have multiple jobs.
And then we pay taxes that they just waste. We're modern day peasants
I have created my own dog sitting business as my side hustle. I usually make 50-100 bucks per day, and usually I just stay the night in clients homes. It’s perfect because it doesn’t take a ton of time, and I can still work my regular job around it.
Hi. Thanks for sharing. How did you manage to charge that much? I know friends who've done it and they make about $250/week. They stay overnight, house sit and water their potted plants too, all at once. Do you target wealthier families or some other strategy?
@@essiej5229 I charge 50 for overnight stays and 25/check in. Just depends on the booking, and if I have multiple pets to check in on. I try to stack one overnight client with one check in client (usually a min of 2 check ins per day when booking) which gets me to about 100 per day if I’m fully booked.
Congratulations. I am a dog lover, but I retired to a small village in North Eastern Brazil. Unfortunately Brazil has a really big stray dog problem. People don`t own as many dogs, they are just ALL over the place. (It costs money to have your dog neutered, so they just multiply). Hardly any dogs are on a leash, so this is a great side hustle in America, not so much in other countries.😎
I work security PT for $26/hr for my side hustle. It’s super easy and it’s weekends only. With me doing the side hustle on weekends, I’m currently working 7 days a week trying to get out of debt 💸. It’s worth it to me now.
Keep going mate👍 It will be worth it when your clear of debt.
Where do you make $26 hr working security ?
Yes sir!!!
Where are you PT security for $26?
Gotta know, I'm a supervisor at $23 and gaurds from other companies say they pay close to the same.
Are you in a psych ward or something? I know they do pay more for the insanity factor.
... and $23 in California ain't exactly grand.
I love the "I lie to people about squarespace pricing" side gig lmfao
When I was little and I was asked, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” My first answer was, “A dog walker.” That lady is living my dreams and made it a reality
I graduated college and still couldnt get a job in my field. If i show you my inbox i got probably 2700(unfortunately while your qualifications were impressive) emails. So i changed my resume up. Did some research and said i had all this experience in a job i knew i could learn with on the job training(operations management, general management of a warehouse etc). Got the job paying 41.50 a hour. Went from 17 to 41 just with some...ingenuity lol
It's crazy how the system obliterates the concept of honesty
Wow! Have time to help anyone out?
You have to lie to get a job now. At the end of the day companies lie to us so it’s fair.
@@TyTy9dPerson just did by telling you to lie, which I guarantee you is the truth. The main thing is that when you get to the job, you do everything you can to learn everything and be successful at it
The things is the background check..
Be careful with doing reselling as your side hustle. It might just become your full time job. Trust me, it did for me!
That’s a good thing!
What do you resell?
Any tips you can share?
There is a guy I use maybe once or twice a year who cleans our cans out. I mean it's like maybe $10 a can, but he has a big water tank, a custom rig he built to hold the cans during cleaning, and afterwards they're clean enough to eat out of. Great side hustle for him and such a great service to offer.
Buy storage units from companies that went out of business then sell it to businesses that do the same thing. That’s my jam
More information please
I still have a 9-5 and starting pushing hard on my side hustles.... and now my side hustles (print on demand, TH-cam & Affiliate sales) now make more than my 9-5..... they are all done online which I love.
Are you willing to share how to get into affiliate sales?
@@ladysteph6460 Affiliate marketing without a large audience is basically a scam.
I started driving for Door Dash. I go out for 1 hour at lunch, 2 hours after work because I cannot drive after dark and I make 60 - 100 dollars per day during the week. I go out on Saturday and Sunday for 6 hours each day and make 300 -400 per weekend. I looked and there is no part time traditional job paying $1000 per week working just 27 hours without having a boss constantly down your back. Easy money. I track my miles, I drive less miles each week than I use to driving to a part time job both ways. Less gas too. Hope this information helps someone.
6. Make videos telling others about side hustles and rake in that sweet sweet ad revenue
Watch out with reselling. Some of the larger thrift stores like Goodwill caught on to people flipping goods on eBay, Poshmark, and other second-hand market, and they jacked up their prices because they figured that people are willing to pay higher prices for second-hand goods. It’s not as lucrative as it used to be unless you put in a LOT of time.
That's not why prices go up. Sorry.
@@RyanResellsInfinityyes it is, it's called demand. And TH-camrs went to stores and flipped crap and now everyone does it. the market got saturated and goodwill jacked up prices. you'll pay over Walmart prices for used crap.
@@lolwtnick4362 So by your logic because resellers bought items from Goodwill and re-sold them after watching TH-camrs do it that now prices are higher at your local Goodwill? And that's how you think supply and demand works? Goodwill is a non profit for profit store. It's hard to keep the lights on without making some profit. We could go into macro economics here but trust that it isn't a resellers fault that prices go up and down.
i agree.
@@lolwtnick4362
So annoying that goodwill did that. Although, I quit buying as much.
Cleaning houses. Make your on schedule
An acquaintance of mine works for a rideshare company in their corporate office. He admitted the company knows it's basically a scam and the drivers aren't getting paid anything meaningful once you consider wear & tear on the car. He told me "these people go out and buy a $20,000 car, make $10,000 driving, but when they're done the car is worth $12,000 and they spend $2k in maintenance and gas" Only the company made money. Unless the driver gets a killer tip, most aren't making anything. Most quit after 6 months once they figure out how little they actually made, but the business model is designed to constantly bring in new blood, people that can't figure out the cost accounting side of it.
I absolutely agree. I drive uber for about 3 weeks before really figuring out how much I was making. I subtracted the "government rate" for wear and tear + gas which was like 57 cents or something from the amount I calculated I was making per mile (on average over the 3 weeks), and it turned out to be something like $0.25 per mile in profit. I just imagined someone handing me a quarter after each mile I drove and figured out that it wasn't a good use of my time at all.
I was driving for Uber/Lyft… when I just started it was great because I was getting a lot of bonus/strikes….. then they stopped sending me those and most of the rides were $3 !!!! I don’t think it’s worth the time anymore:(
Then buy a somewhat modern $3k car that fits Uber’s standards and it’s a wise investment. You’d be making profit on something that’s already been depreciated.
@@handleyobusiness Both companies have car quality requirements, I believe your car has to be at minimum 5 years or newer. If you know where I can get a 5 year old car for $3K, please tell me. I think you're right though, a person could make Uber work if they were permitted to drive something like a 93 Camry (something runs forever with very little maintenance and is super cheap to buy and fix), but it's not allowed.
True, I hear the instacart and door dash is the good stuff now.
But the other side jobs listed in this video are also good IF you live in the right area for it
In the 90s I always had a side job. Worked at a subway shop every Friday and Saturday night for year and years. Paid off my Jeep 3 years early
“It’s never been easier to make $1,000…”
Man, it’s never been easier to spend them either.
Decided to start flipping used cars. Within a week or two, I bought one for $250 and fixed it for about $200. A mechanic had looked at it and quoted the car's previous owner $2500 to fix it, so she let it sit for 2 years until I bought it. It is worth about $4k.
How often would you find a situation like this?? And how did you find this car?
Only should be attempted if you know cars very well!
Very rare to find a sitting car with minimal work and the owner wants 250, it's more like 500 to 1k here.
Still a decent flip!
You type that it's worth $4k, but have you sold it yet?
I started my side hustle 7 years ago on Amazon selling used books. Still selling today and wholesale as well.
Is it Lucrative
I pick up scrap metal before and after working my full time 12 hr. night job. Then I drive to my scrap buyer every Friday morning after work. No more OT opportunities these days but the weekly cash outs is worth the effort.
Bro, If i only owned a truck I would be picking up some scrap metal.
Washer, dryer, water heater, old oven.... easy $50+ if you can lift it in and transport to a recycle yard
When scrap steel pays 8 cents a pound or more it's hard to beat for a side hustle! Easy money!
Got a cheap manual push mower as a teen, walked up my street and said trim your yard for 10-20$ depends how big it is, Walk up an down the street an ask everyone make a couple hundred a weekend, still do it now in my late 20s with a gas mower an other tools.
Cans an bottles, alot of people are too lazy to go themselves so you can get couple hundred a month where I am daily limit is like 80$ but still works good. And i monitized my woodworking an now i make things by request.
You can do it! Theres always money to be made somewhere thats why I like sides hustles on top of a reg job. Job pays bills, side hustles are just extra :)
Yeah because you're doing stuff people actually need an already paid for, not thinking you can sit in front of a computer
Why is it that every time I look at Ken I can’t help but think of Kevin’s Dad in Home Alone!
@rusticski - probably due to watching "Home Alone" too many times, while secretly wishing you were part of that family !!
I can't unsee this 😂
😂😂😂😂
Ha
Auto detailing is a good side hustle too. It help me pay off my cars and help me with the down payment for my home. Are you need is a vacuum,bucket, tire dressing water hose with nozzle
People are so fast to look for the laziest thing, like flipping books. Cleaning cars is actual work, it is an industry. So annoying to see Engineers with graduate education thinking about grocery delivery for extra money
@rodrigorodriguez509 lmao interesting take but how is this relevant to his comment?😂
I work in an air conditioned office for my full time job. I work in my shop building furniture as a side hustle. I enjoy the side hustle better
How about a simple parking lot litter cleanup service? It's not glamorous or sexy but ordinary people are making fortunes cleaning up after others. The work is done on-foot using simple hand tools. I started this as a side gig in 1981 and grew it into a six-figure business.
I started a little laser engraving side hustle it has really taken off and I am on the cusp of being able to turn my passion into a career. Even a cheap machine can bring in a few hundred to a couple thousand $ if you are better at marketing yourself than I was. If you are creative and not afraid to learn some pretty basic software, you can make some good side money.😊
I signed up with temporary staffing agencies almost 25 years ago. Even when I worked full time, part time jobs through the years I picked up extra jobs. I also had substitute teaching jobs.
Second, I turn in bottles and cans for recycling. Sell items online. Yardsales.
The picking up the glass is deceiving. Glass doesn’t pay anything. Like a nickel per pound. The distinction is that the old guys charges people to drop off the glass. You don’t make 5K a month recycling glass anywhere. Now transporting the glass is a different story.
We can all pay off debts by cutting off unnecessary expenses & living frugal. Stay motivated & many blessings!
Deep cut with the Xanga shoutout 😅
Cutting grass cleaning gutters blowing leaves painting pressure washing trash removal.
I do Videography and editing as a side hustle. Gets me around 45k-55k a year. It’s a great side hustle along with photography. Especially once you build up your clientele.
How did you go about doing that? Im into editing and photography also and looking to utilize the skill.
@@Shaqt0418 about 13 years ago I was lucky enough to purchase my first camera. Started shooting music videos. I also networked with some churches, made it known via social media that I make videos. My boss at my job connected me with a local magazine who hired me pt to shoot local stories and produce videos for their website. Continued networking and meeting people along the way. It's so important to network man. Eventually I found my niche doing wedding videography on the side, making a good 50-70k a year from that. I've gone back to focusing on corporate work now though. All that being said, you definitely have to get out here, network, build your brand and make sure your name is synonymous with whatever craft/skillset you are trying to market. When people think of Shaqt, they should think, photography, editing and professionalism. I hope that helps.
More ideas like this !!!!
Ken a few months ago: "Having more than one job is professional polygamy!"
Ken now: "Here are 5 side hustles to help you get out of debt!"
Just like any airtime show, grasping at straws.
Ken a few months ago, was referring to working 2 jobs *literally* at the same time; i.e. while working from home as a computer programmer, also programming for another company. Ken now is talking about picking up additional work *outside* of your regular 9-5.
@@ChadZeluff How many executives are doing just that?
Why is it okay for them to do it but not everyone else?
@@15KHPCLUB who said it was
@@ChadZeluffthis is accurate, whomever took his personal opinion out of context needs to understand where he is coming from. The term he refers to is “tech stacking”. It was very common during the pandemic.
as an engineer, he might look into teaching engineering or math courses via distance learning programs. Some such programs don't even require him to actually teach but simply be available to answer questions during the self-study course and then grade homework/tests. Similarly, he could also work in a PE licensing prep-course if he's already got (or once he gets) his license.
if he's working 40+ hours/week in a full-time job, seems like consulting on the side could be difficult. Folks hiring an engineering consultant are going to want to have meetings (and site visits if applicable) during regular working hours.
Always love the content! Be careful accepting non cash payments!!!! The new threshold is $600, down from $20,000. You will be considered self employed!!!! And have fun with your new tax filing status courtesy of the recovery act!!! So do side gigs and only accept cash. Underground economy is necessary now!
True
Oh, wow, I just posed a question about tax liability and brackets, and wonder if people are reporting the income from these side hustles.
If its for paying a down-payment definitely reported especially if it's for a house and they know you have extra income and are able to afford it
I can't imagine any fun side hustles in my field 😂
im a shift manager as my main job but as my side gig i play the bagpipes on a professional level. i make anywhere from 150-400 for the gigs i play. far more then the average musician makes
We just have way too many bills/stuff that is not necessary. Keep it simple and you won’t need side hustles.
Oh yeah that’s all it takes while I make 60k as a resident physician. Stop the lies.
@@amechecameron3217 people just refuse to live within their means. It’s not that hard.
I started a mobile detailing business this year. It pays well for a side hustle. Only thing is that I’ll be useless when it hits winter.
You need a winter hustle then 😂
Seasonal hustles are OK. It just depends on what you need to make, your schedule, and if you can find another hustle during winter.
I know this is a bit old but food for thought
If you go to customers homes, hence the mobile detailing, and have proven you give excellent service, then you already have a client list who may need their driveways shoveled
Don't know your health, age or any restrictions.
But you can roll the auto detailing into driveway detailing for the autos!
Nice work 🎆✨
Great video! I have a question, I have two fraud inquiries on my reports that I would like to get removed. I've seen your video regarding this, but Im still a bit confused. So I know my first step would be making a call with the credit bureau (Experian) but should I also make call what time? And would I be never stop sending a good compny *VRI TOKEN* to my friends and people I know regarding any credit situations
I got dumped from Lyft, because of an old misdemeanor, after 5 months. Fulltime shopper with Instracart was great during the pandemic and the slowed down.
that and so many people do it now, i assume the jobs are drying up and too many lurkers jumping on the good jobs the moment they post
You were found guilty?
7. selling lemonade
My side hustle is instacart, my youtube channel and currently writing a cookbook. I love garage sales. I stopped going though as im getting out of debt. Reselling things though from them would probably be a good idea.
It's pretty fun too as long as you're checking what items have sold for on eBay. Gotta be careful though lol don't want to have a hoard you can't sell. With enough experience ppl can really make good money.
@autonope23 yeah that is the downfall to that. I hate hoarding. It would bother me a lot having things in my house for an extended period of time. I've been learning about couponing and stuff so that in itself is saving a ton of money
TH-cam doesn't monetize channels until after 1k subs. How are you making money from TH-cam with only 500 subs?
@kittensmitten3287 I'm not lol it's something I am working towards. Same with my cookbook also not making money off it as it's not out yet. Both are a work in progress which i consider a side hustle as they will bring in income eventually. However some people do make money before they're monetized through other ways through their channel. By products they sell or promote.
@@TheHappyHomemaker ok that makes sense. Well I wish you the very best!
He is absolutely right about contacting your insurance company BEFORE you do Uber, Lyft, Doordash, etc.
Sometimes we will cancel your insurance if we find out you didn’t let us know, definitely cancel that car’s insurance, and you WILL NOT be covered for that wreck.
Only go into a part-time job like that if you’re willing to get auto insurance through your company like Doordash or a commercial “business” policy.
I flip shoes but I’m not able to consistently get stock so it’s not a consistent side income. But when i can get the right shoe i can make upto 5x what i paid for it but usually it’s 1.5x roi
Reselling.. make about 500 week average, just going to yard sales on Saturday and occasionally a thrift store during the week. Pays the mortgage and its like a scavenger hunt
What are you mostly reselling?
@@stajia4694 everything. Anything and everything. From hats, to pots and pans. To old toys
I keep loosing in real trade but win in Demo.
Should I give up on Trade?
What should I do?
How may I do better?
What I'm I doing incorrectly?
I HAVE INCURRED SO MUCH LOSSES TO TRADE ON MY OWN,I TRADE WELL ON DEMO BUT I THINK THE REAL MARKET IS MANIPULATED.
I always advice new members to have an orientation on how it works before getting involved. Trade offers more benefits than just holding.

Food delivery, ride share, donating plasma
Handy man is another good job.
My daughter just graduated college with an accounting degree. She applied to over 370 "entry level" jobs that all required 3+ years experience. At that point she only had two seasons at H&R Block. Was very frustrating for her.
They don’t get it.
This is the norm now. The system is broken because of employer expectations vs what they offer. Several factors for this but a system reset will happen any many will hurt because of it. That is if the US doesn't fracture first.
Cry
Its insane that they ask 3 years experience for a entry level job, its like asking for a virgin with 5 years of sex experience
Please ask her get a fake 3 years work experience from an Indian consultant, She will get the job next day onwards... meanwhile she will get lots to learn instead of wasting time after passout. Honestly is the best policy but now it won't bring food to the table.
I do freelance product photography on the side for auction houses. So they give me bins of costume jewelry, small decor items like vases, sterling silver, etc.... I take it home and photograph it all and then they hold an online only auction. I charge roughly $50 an hour to do that for several auctioneers and also antique dealers that sell online. I also have my own etsy shop selling items I find at yard sales and flea markets. I've had almost 600 sales so far. That's on the side of my full time job.
That sounds cool. How did you get into that?
I drive a semi locally for almost $40 an hour. It's a casual part time position, so I tell them when I can work.
You need a cdl for that?
What area?
my side hustle is using a license for a type of inspection and the hourly is insane when you charge lump sum.
What kind of inspections do you do ?
@@youngmc8297 Mine is inspecting public businesses for compliance with federal and state (CA) codes and laws as it pertains to accessibility for people with disabilities such as wheelchair users, veteran amputees, blind and deaf people, etc. Half of the work is fueled by lawsuits and half are just businesses wanting to avoid lawsuits or get permits approved for new construction. But there are all kinds of different inspector-type of licenses out there that usually pay well especially when it requires your signature on something like a compliance letter.
I’m a project manager for a construction company and make a great salary with gas reimbursement and I still want to do side work to make extra money. We are debt free on baby steps 4, 5, 6. I like to make extra money to help fund something we may want or to put extra in our savings. George gave me a great idea to offer to paint mailboxes in my neighborhood. Would be so easy and I don’t have to travel!
The best side gig I’ve found is doing laundry. Being a laundry pro on the gig apps really works.
I do UberEats, Doordash, and I have went through all of my stuff and sold things I do not need on Marketplace. I have become a minimalist and it has kept me from buying unnecessary things too. We even did a 4 day multi-family garage sale and made thousands. I have made well over $15k doing this the past few years.
What your experience with UberEats? I’m thinking of do this to make some money.
@@rubimorales9858 You can sign up and give it a try for a day or a week. It is not as if you are going to be fined or fired.
We tried that and are now homeless with worsening medical debt.

Depends where you live. Where I live the cost of living is very low so $25 is more than 95% of people. Im in the 5% but I have a license for a field (only costed me $100 but alot of studying lol)
I put bottles in boxes and make more.
@@wordsalad01 If it's a 4 year degree, should still be doing better. I have some friends that are engineers and they said they consider engineering techs pretty much the same.
@@wordsalad01 there is a 4 year engineering tech degree
@@wordsalad01 you moved the goalposts on that one. Lol.
I'm not saying all places treat them the same though. I just know some guys that are engineers for Cummins. In their department it doesn't matter for most of the engineering positions.
This does not mean they are equal in all areas or companies.
But, there is a 4 year engineering tech degree. They also go through a lot of math. They are just geared more towards hands on
I looked into power washing business as a side job but all the articles were wrong that you could invest a few hundred and get out there. Everyone who does it is saying you'll never get off the ground unless you have at MINIMUM a 4GPM gas powered power washer that is mounted to a truck or trailer with a hundred foot minimum hose, and that even includes if you do nothing but small jobs. And be prepared for lots of part replacements. I imagine if you stuck to garbage can cleanings, you might get away with a smaller washer that's around $500 instead of $1200 but you need the truck and trailer.
Right. All of these "side hustles" require significant start up costs. Tools, vehicles, marketing, licenses... All things that Dave tells people not to buy when in debt.
but have you actually Done Anything? there's a TH-camr who quit his hard ass employer and he takes his story mowing lawns and doing windows. he started with only a few hundred dollars. Now he's doing great. experience will get you further than a bunch of machines. I'll let you keep searching since you seemed to talk to everybody in the industry
Refereeing! I started with no experience except playing and coaching soccer and made about $6000 in the first year. I had to invest about $300 for the class, uniform, etc. The best thing about it is that I get to set the schedule. For high school games, it pays almost $1/min! Some folks do multiple sports.
I put my camera to use and accelerated my debt payoff taking pictures for people. It wasn’t a five-figure endeavor like what Ken and George are talking about, but it definitely added to the shovel.
Can you elaborate on how you acquired and built your business?
@@brittneysilver2351 I just refined my skills and put the work out there. People jumped on it.
I bought a camera recently to do TH-cam videos but I am not interested in doing pictures as well.
How did you get started?
Wait just a darn minute. This guy is giving financial advice and paying $125 for a car wash? That had better of been a full detail for that price!
But he is living the american dream of 100% no debt!....so George can afford to pay that if he wants to.
He charges people to pick up their recycling?
When they put it out for pickup, he can take it for free. Pickup is also included in your taxes. So why are people also paying him at the same time?
Yeah, makes no sense. “Hey honey, let’s pay that guy $100/mo to take our glass bottles instead of us recycling it for free”
@@christopher7725Hey lets pay people to cook our food instead of doing it ourselves. Hey let's pay someone to deliver pizza when it's free to pick up. hey it's free to exercise but let's pay to go to a gym.. you get the idea, right?
I’m a teacher and I got a 2900 but our health insurance deductible went from 3500 to 7,000😢😢
Sports officiating is extremely lucrative. Minimal cost to get licensed and can make as much or little as you want based on your availability.
How do you get started in pressure washing? I have no issue doing this and have a really nice pressure washer.
Im a local pet sitter, but its been a very slow year so not making much money.
An uncle of mines said he got paid 200 one day to pick up some dog poop that took him like 20 minutes. He said to call him anytime lol.
I’m hoping to turn TH-cam into a side hustle eventually but it takes a while to grow a channel. Until then, I think the best side hustles are something in your area of expertise or something you are passionate about
it could require an insane amount of time
If you know video editing already, it may be worth it.
It seems to depend on a ton of luck but good luck..
Becoming famous isn't the best side hustle plan. Getting into producing or editing videos would be more of a side hustle. Hustles aren't dreams they're something that makes you money more like an actual job.
@@littleripper312 well any job even if it is to get famous is a hustle. Plus so many don’t have skills that people pay for…
My favorite is dog sitting!
Any suggestions for people who live rural? Cause none of that is available here. I sell eggs when I have extra
Do you have baking skills? I have friends who bake custom pies, cakes, and cookie orders in their home kitchens for birthdays and events. Not as many potential clients out in the country, but if you know enough folks locally to sell them eggs, there are probably customers there for baked goods.
Some. People live in poorer neighborhoods that do not have the disposable income (or don't care to get these services done) and you hvae to be careful going to other negborhoods because you may get in trouble for soliciting. Dor those people be careful, try to find friends or family who live in better neighborhoods who don't mind introducing you, and don't the internet is also a great place to make side money too
Where is the love button for this video? Thanks for the inspiration about side hustles!
Man this side hustles aren't practical time wise if you have a full-time job I want list for full time workers
that power washing sounds interesting i may try that one

You can make it its possible its just going to take alot of work just keep grinding man there aint no excuse just keep grinding create a system it aint over till you six feet under you either fix your situation or dont thats on you!!
$25/hour? My friends son graduated with a degree in engineering and had a job waiting for him when he graduated for $75k he needs to look for a higher paying job.
I bought a 20 year old SUV for the same price the dealership was offering their customer on trade in - $2k - I changed the oil and vacuumed it out, and sold it last week for $5200. If you know friends & family that are car shopping it's worth letting them know you may be interested in paying them cash for the trade in value of their used car. I used the money to pay down consume debt, so the 5200, has even more value when you factor in the interest I'm not paying on it.
What tax did you pay on that 5200?
Substitute teaching offers flexible hours and can be lucrative in some cities.
Omaha Public schools pays $225/day. But the kids can be challenging dependent upon the neighborhood.
My son during college, worked summer jobs of construction usually 80 hours a week. He did Lyft and Uber, delivered pizza for Godfather Pizza. He graduated with a small amount of school loans. Side hustle is great 👍
Thank God my parents were multimillionaires
80 hours a week ? stop bull craping. do u think before you type. 80 a week lol
@@frankteddy8823 he absolutely worked 80 hours a week. In a trench where the city utilities were being replaced along the street and the job was being done as quickly as possible. Try to keep your comments respectful as the community guidelines specify
Haha gotta love the motherly instinct right there ^^ 🐻 you go Mom!!
@@destynwalker7854you won’t do anything
House sitting where I live, you earn waaaaaay less 😂 $1000 is crazy! I’d get maybe $200. But it’s still a nice job for a young adult in college because you get your own space to live in and a pet for a while.
There are gonna be a lot of people complaining that people spend over their means and well that's very true. In a lot of cases they're also gonna be a lot of people are getting wages have not kept up that's also true in a lot of cases and here's my example 12 years ago when me and my wife bought our house, we made $80,000 that year together our house was $60,000 and was only valued at $70,000 Fast forward 12 years lot has changed. Neither of us have those jobs anymore. I'm disabled whatever point being even with those exact same jobs now we would probably make right at 100,000 a year together our house is now valued at $200,000 so while our income would have increased by 25% home values in my area have quadrupled and I say in my area because there was a home right down the road that just sold for $300,000 and I promise you 12 years ago that house was not worth about about $80,000 Inflation has destroyed our buying power because incomes have not kept up nowhere near the rate of inflation. That's a simple fact now I will agree with other arguments. We buy a lot of crap. We don't have to have most people tend to eat out a lot and yes, eating out is more expensive than eating at home. That's another simple fact, but there's a lot that goes into this problem as a whole it's not just one thing
Yep but people online don't talk about buying power or buying items at higher prices. I don't understand either unless incomes increase relative to other things the issue can't be people buying too much stuff when the prices of once cheap items are no longer cheap.
Maybe I’m nuts or I’ve just lived in poor places my whole life, but I could never see myself paying someone to pressure wash a trash can that I don’t even own and that the trash company will replace with a simple phone call, or picking up glass bottles because I feel like I SHOULD be recycling them. And I’m ABSOLUTELY not paying $1000 for 10 days of dog sitting. But I guess there’s a sucker born every day.
The side hustle/second job I do is refereeing. Can't make a ton of money (only so many games) but I make about $80 an hour and games are on the weekends
My part time that I’m hoping to be my full time is to be a financial advisor. I make anywhere from $1k to almost $4k monthly. It varies but I love that I can do it from home and I don’t have to drive anywhere to make an extra income.
How did you get into it?
Yeah. I have a degree in Financial Economics. How did you start doing that?
Why get a degree if you can't pay for the schooling it takes to get said degree with the job the degree got you?
Food delivery is dead in my city sadly. Also for Uber you need a newer car, they won't allow me to drive Uber with my old car.
Not for food, for food they do not care.
Please tell us about your Uber/Lyft gig, and the need for extra car insurance.
My neighbor just paid someone to power wash his garbage cans.
i would be interested if some teen came up wanting $15 to clean my can. heck, would pay just to respect the hustle
Side hustle are good, but where I live a lot people start doing pressure washing, the city figure out, and they required to register your business pull a license with insurance otherwise you’ll get a fine, o well
That exact same thing happened where I live.
