Changing the world with chess and making $100,000 per year on the side.
That’s the story of today’s guest, Jeff DiOrio from EliteChess.net.

Can you really make money as an Amazon product tester?
If you love testing new products and sharing your opinion, it could be a great side hustle for you.
But beware of companies offering to pay you to test and review products — it’s likely a scam.
For the past couple years, I’ve seen a few people talking about their side hustle picking up “bed in a box” mattresses. They say it’s something you can do part time and the pay is great.
After that, though, the details become more and more scarce.
How does it all work? Where does the money come from? What’s the catch?
When focused on this side hustle, Mike typically made anywhere from $150-300/week and has earned over $50,000 in total working on tasks right from his computer at home.
Having worked on Amazon Mechanical Turk for 2 and a half years (completely as a side hustle), he’s done over 150,000 tasks (called HITs, or Human Intelligence Tasks).
HeyCash is a money making app that pays users to play online games, take surveys, and test out new services.

And he’s here to share with you how he built all of this… without being a developer himself.
Ryan “Heff” Gerlach started The Keeper League Podcast and keeperleaguepod.com.au on the side from his teaching job.
It’s not about football, not just about fantasy football, but about a very specific flavor of fantasy football for Australian Rules Football.
That’s a niche within a niche within a niche — where fans don’t just draft players, they build teams that last for years.
And now it serves as the hub for player data, draft tools, and expert analysis for football keeper leagues.
This is my review of the popular Field Agent app.
I’ve heard about the app on various lists of side hustle ideas for years, and was excited to finally put it to the test.
The tl;dr version of what I found is that the app is legit (they do really pay), it’s easy to use, and is actually pretty fun. But don’t expect this to replace your day job!
