It’s time for another round of business idea giveaways, this time with an AI-assisted theme to them!
We’ve got 18 at least of these to go through, and to help me out, he’s no stranger to The Side Hustle Show, long-time listener, serial side hustler, from doyouevenblog.com and codeplaybook.com, Pete McPherson.
He was last on just a few months ago in Ep. 659 talking about AI-coded apps.
Summer is a great time to start a side hustle and make extra money. The question is, what kind of side hustle would be best for you?
Check out the list below to spark some ideas and inspiration!
While my own college days are ancient history, I think it’s more important than ever that college students learn how to make money.
College itself is more expensive than ever, and that’s led to more and more people borrowing money to pay for it. This year’s graduates will carry more than a degree–they’ll also head out into the world with an average of $33,000 of debt.
But if you can start your working career without the huge burden of debt, you’ve already got a major leg-up on your path to financial independence.
Teaching is a noble and rewarding profession, but it’s not the best-paying job in the world.
As a teacher you usually start with very low wages and have the burden of student debt, and so it’s only natural to look to side hustles or ways to make extra money outside of your chosen profession.
While there are dozens of side hustle ideas out there, here are the ones I think are best-suited to teachers and educators to take advantage of your unique skills and expertise.
What are the best side hustle trends you should look out for in 2025? These might impact what business you start and how you think about scaling it.
And to help me out is a longtime friend and a friend of the show, Spencer Haws from NichePursuits.com.
He’s been covering online side hustles even longer than I have.
Almost all our content starts from the question of, “How do I make extra money?” To answer that, it’s important to know where the market’s been, where it is, and where it’s potentially going.
As a new parent, I’m constantly trying to figure out the best way to educate our little hustler about business, entrepreneurship, and money.
And while he’s a few years away from the proverbial lemonade stand on the sidewalk, let me use that as inspiration for this post.
Think all side hustles are good side hustles? Not so fast.
Some gigs that were money-makers just a year or two ago are already on life support.
AI is getting better, competition is getting fiercer, and the Internet never stops moving.
If you’re trying to make extra money in 2025, you’ve got to be smart about where you invest your time.
Ever thought about making money while you travel? It’s more common than you might think.
Some folks work jobs that take them around the world.
Others find ways to earn remotely so they can go wherever they want.
The possibilities aren’t just for influencers or people with huge followings—there are real, practical ways to make travel pay for itself.
It’s time for another round of business idea giveaways, and to help me out is a long-time friend and friend of the show, Steve Chou, a serial entrepreneur who built not one but two 7-figure businesses starting both as side hustles — MyWifeQuitHerJob.com and BumbleBeeLinens.com.
It’s becoming a tradition; this is our 3rd round of business idea giveaways. If you find you like this format, make sure to go check out the other two.
