Have you heard of Turo? Think Airbnb but for cars.
This is my review of the Turo peer-to-peer car rental platform, from the owner’s perspective.
Over the last 4 months, my husband and I have managed to leverage underutilized cars in our driveway and the Turo platform to get a free Tesla Model S for our day-to-day driving.
Sometimes the simplest solutions are the most effective.
This post (and podcast episode) are inspired by my presentation at FinCon last month. I broke my own rule of not seeking out any speaking gigs, and submitted for a breakout session.
The idea was a bit of an homage to the conference: 10 FinCon Breakthroughs that Tripled My Business.
Side hustle jobs are everywhere these days!
There are dozens (maybe even hundreds) of different apps that all promise a different way to make extra money in your spare time.
In this post, I’ll share some of the most popular side hustle jobs, and where you can go to get started.
It’s a fun creative challenge to keep coming up with new episode ideas. I’m happy to see a nice little upward trend there in September.
Compared to last year, the show was up 22% for the quarter.
We’re closing in on 10 million lifetime downloads!
Before we begin, I should note that the single BEST way to make your side hustle feel official is to get paid. Go sell something, seriously.
But I also understand that many people — myself include — often want some level of “establishment” before they feel comfortable saying they’re open for business.
I opened my first LLC while I was still in college and really had no idea what I needed it for. But it felt good, and if I’m being honest, made me feel smart and important too. And later I got plenty of use out of it.
What are the best side hustles for introverts?
Don’t worry — if you don’t like talking to people, there are still plenty of ways to make extra money and start a business!
I get it. I identify as an introvert myself.
I recently shared 37 things I’ve learned in my 37 years, and invited Side Hustle Nation to share their own life lessons.
This post is a compilation of the “words to live by” responses I received, broken down into several broad categories.
Enjoy!
I wish I was half as smart now as I was at 16!
But learning everything you don’t know is part of the process.
One thing I love about my work is I feel like I learn new things every day. Sometimes they’re small little tweaks and hacks, and other times they’re broader strategies or ideas.
I originally drafted this list 7 years ago, after my 30th birthday, but decided it was due for an update.
Buy a house.
Rent it out.
Tenants pay it off for you.
It’s possibly one of the oldest side hustles in the books, right?
Done right, owning rental properties can be an attractive long-term income and wealth-building strategy. But done wrong, it can be a recipe for headaches and a mountain of debt.
How do you make money on eBay?
Buy low, sell high, repeat.
The formula is simple, but that doesn’t mean it’s easy!
To help me learn more about selling items for a profit on eBay, I turned to serial side hustler Daniella Flores. With the help of several part-time businesses, she and her wife have been able to pay off $31,000 in debt in the last two years.
