Whenever I want some fun money, I hop in the car and drive for Uber. A good night can pay for a new driver!
The Side Hustle Thread
Woodworking. It started out as me enjoying making some stuff for myself in the garage and people ended up seeing my posts about it on FB and Instagram and next thing you know, I have people wanting me to make stuff for them and offering to pay me for it.
Oh and also,
When the little pricks take off out of the pasture and thru the woods...yeah it's a hustle!

Anyone have anything new they've started recently? Wfh side hustles?
I've been thinking about Uber or DoorDash. Something I can do when I want

I work 4 nights a week at a local pizza place. I looked at DD but having a leased car makes it not ideal, then looking at the pay, unless you're doing a lot of deliveries, it's really not worth it.
I'm actually waiting to hear back from a local FedEx depot. Driving a forklift, loading trucks M-F,5pm to 9pm for starting at nearly $19 ph.
I was in talks with the local golf shop but we couldn't get hours to align. Hard with a standard 8-5 and a family.
I guess you could say my soccer ref gig and zoning commission gig are side hustles. I get paid for my time but don't do it for the money, although my golf bag appreciates the walk around money. Just got my zoning Q2 check that may very well become a 5 hybrid.

If you can handle it - get into babysitting. That's a racket.
I've paid hundreds of dollars in babysitting and it's almost exclusively for 2-3 hours after work so I can go to league. 20 bucks an hour to a 16 year old who in our instructions to her is to put the baby to bed after a bottle and then go sleep with the 3 year old. Easy money, however your mileage may vary.
A fellow THPer got me hooked up with the NFL a few years ago running instant replay from the sidelines. I started out as an alternate, and did the preseason and 1 regular season game, unless I was needed to fill in. Covid year, I worked one or two regular season games, and last season, I got elevated to a regular position, and worked most of the season. Doing the same this season. You don't appreciate how big and fast the players are until you are 10 feet off the sideline and they come barreling towards you. Even the kickers are big dudes.
Anyone who thinks Alabama/Georgia/Clemson/tOSU could beat the worst NFL team is full of it.

That sounds like an awesome sid gig. Do you travel for that? As in does the NFL choose where you will be on Sundays? Or just always at CLE?
No travel. Just in Cleveland. Our role used to travel in the past for the international games, but not anymore. Only travel at this point would be for the Super Bowl.

I am one of 2 assistant pastors at our church. I lead some classes and also preach about once a month. It's not financially motivated as I do it for free, but it is definitely rewarding in a lot of other ways. One of my favorite weeks is this week as we take the kids to camp tomorrow for 5 days.
If they need another guy...
When my old coworkers said that it was nice that I was volunteering for that, and I told them it ain't no volunteer gig.

I flipped watches for a little bit before the prices of everything on the preowned market exploded. Currently working on a side business of growing and selling coral
Yep. That sounds about perfectWhen my old coworkers said that it was nice that I was volunteering for that, and I told them it ain't no volunteer gig.
That’s awesome! I used to work part time (changed to volunteer a couple months ago) with a para-church ministry. I originally mentored college students, but now it’s with high schoolers which has been a tad different but still fun
I became an Optavia health coach. Not because of side hustle stuff but because I wanted to help friends and family. It organically grew to side hustle status, and frankly is a bit much at times.
My wife had great success with Optavia.
I was a semi-professional musician for about 35 years, in addition to having a full-time day job most of the time. Played mostly local clubs ("BarStar"), with some occasional regional or coastal travel. Money was sometimes OK, but mostly not great. Retired completely from that in 2014. I kind of miss it, but I kind of don't. Music is a tougher industry that most realize, full of idiots on all sides who really don't know what they're doing, but do it anyway. It's not the easiest way to make money, either. At one point, I was hauling around about $10k of equipment between bass rig, keyboards, lights, and small PA ... just to make $100 to $150 a night ... same money we were making back in the '80s.
No side hustle these days. Just the day job.

My side hustle is making TGC 2019 courses for sim play. I operate as an LLC registered in Michigan. I actually have a course in progress right now for @jmix18 from THP, Wild Marsh in Minnesota. I attached a couple of my links from the golf sim forum.
