I have a side hustle. 80% of business loan applicants are declined by banks. Yep. 80%, my side hustle is providing them with free business consulting. You see, I’ve been a business lender for over 18 yrs. I know what it takes to be approved by a bank. My goal is to provide you with capital now even if it’s not a traditional bank loan. We all start somewhere. The plan is to help you out today and as you grow
My side hustle is a Summer thing…Me and my Daughter do Dollar General remodels where we get times of stuff for .01 piece…Then we turn around and sell it for half of what the price has on it at Gsales..10k for summer of 2023…Around 8 sales per summer
Hello Eric thank you for all of your contents I’m 73 years old and have been doing e-commerce for seven years and self-taught through watching RUclips videos videos if I can do it, so can anyone else love LB.
I enjoyed this video and your message and your passion. I spent 29 years as a financial advisor. I started a sharpening service as a side hustle in 2015 because I enjoyed the hobby. I retired in 2020 and went full time with my sharpening business. I love doing it and now doing RUclips videos about sharpening and that has increased my business.
@@RealLifeFinance salon, barber and pet grooming shears, clipper blades, sewing and industrial scissors and just about any knife. Please check out my social media page. Especially my RUclips channel.
My side hustle is baking (cakes, pies, cookies, breads- old school desserts that stores don’t sell too). Some months it’s brought in close to 1k a month just baking 1 day a week for colleagues. I’ll retire in 3 years when the last one goes off to college then I’ll bake and cook for a few of my coworkers ( deliver lunches). I just love to cook😊
Hi @Nisa-gm5wg! I would love to know more! I would love to do this. I don’t even know what I want to know, lol 😂 . I guess the. if you think this would be a profitable business if I went all in.
I live 500 miles from my mother. I would love to find a service that could provide real meals for her. When I was there I would make everything from scratch. It would be a comfort to me and people like me to know that she's getting 1-2 good, delicious and nutritious meals. Also, with delivery, someone is at least putting their eye on her daily.
@@kathryn9374 I am guessing that if you had clients with the funds that understood the health benefits of real food, you could probably make a good living. I recently attended a 5 day challenge with a woman named Dr Karwanna D. She teaches how to get VERY high dollar government contracts to do the things you love and make 10X or more than you charge privately. Check out her channel. You might be surprised how lucrative your gift can be. I plan on teaching dance. I usually did it for free. (Who knew I could get $$$$ like that?) Good luck with your business
@@kathryn9374 yes it can be very profitable especially once you get consistent customers. My coworkers now request large orders throughout the week as well for special occasions like birthdays, anniversaries etc. I started just by making treats as gifts for people Christmas. They asked if they could buy more. I started making cookies then it progressed to selling individual slices of a cake and then other desserts. I sell a pack of cookies (3) for $2 and a slice of cake for $3. I also package it so pretty. You’ll be surprised what you can do at the dollar stores or getting things really cheap after the holidays are gone. I know I could charge more but I get my supplies always on sale and I make my own vanilla extract. Because of the prices they keep coming back every week. I no longer have to ask what they want because they come looking for me. I’ve even started to make some meals as well ( homemade soups with fresh bread or burritos and Mexican rice) . It also helps that I garden and can food’s especially when it goes on sale. My homemade pickles from the garden last year did so well. A lot of my cooking experience I learned from my grandmother and great Aunts but canning and gardening I learned from You Tube ( Sutton daze and homestead heart are great if you want to know about those two things). I pray this helps
@@katrinab7657 I know from recent personal experiences. I lost my mom 4 days before Christmas 2023 and my parents were married for 52 years. My mom did everything for my dad and he is just lost. They relocated here about 10 years ago to be closer because my dad’s siblings were dying off. . He’s the only one left of his siblings now. It’s been a blessing to be able to step in and help my dad. He lives 2 miles from me. I plan just about all his meals for breakfast and lunch and he eats dinner with us. Something ones he’s stubborn or just having a moment so I pack him dinner and take it to him. I call everyday and lay eyes on him just about everyday. That gives me a peace of mind. The goal is for home to eventually live with us but he doesn’t want to just yet. I believe he feels like a burden to us. He’s definitely not. I would suggest that you check with the churches around the area especially if your mom faithfully attends one. There are usually Great cooks at church to and they may have a ministry that provides that service. That’s a goal of mine once I retire to provide meals for our elderly members or just for people in need ( for free too). It also helps that my hubby is on board too ( he’s the pastor😊). Pray this helps and sorry if I was too long
I’m a real estate agent and real estate investor. I have a few rental properties. Those things have helped me generate some great additional income and experience. I also started a RUclips channel this year and I wrote a book on real estate investing. Ready Set Invest in Real Estate! Hope these ideas help someone else.
After working at a college/university for 30 years, I would like to help students find scholarships for college. You have to creative, but money is out there, especially if you are a good student. My daughter went to college by asking all the funeral directors in her city for donations.
There was a young man at least at the time on Oprah that created I believe an app that divulged a multitude of options for grants and scholarships for different reasons one being left handed and I'm not joking about that look him up he's a young black male hopefully that'll help your endeavor.
Started a small garden nursery in my backyard. I would love to offer consulting for peoples gardens. I am over 60 and had to start all over at 45 for retirement. It's been a journey to say the least. Thank you for all your inspiration!!!
My side hustle is in defi (decentralised finance)I have about 8k invested in liquidity pools earning $30-$40 a day which I compound back into the pools still working full time at the moment
There’s a chef, baker, body wax lady and even a masseuse in my neighborhood offering their services from home. I’ve thought about cambly or some other online English teaching platform.
The best advice you gave in this video was to remember the taxes. Keeping good records is the secret to success in business. I would like to get started helping people in this respect.
@MrDonny27 It depends. If I receive a lot of good orders(high tip orders), I usually earn at least $20/hr. It's not always the case. Some day, I earn less. It also depends on the market. Some areas are busy most of the time in the evening and some are not.
At first I thought this video was for people over 40...but for a second, I thought it might also be for anyone already working a 40 hr workweek, and the side hustle suggestions would represent working +40 hrs!😂
I work 40 hours a week, I offer lessons in Tech Support to the younger generation, in my spare time. 30% of my clients have joined my 9-5 job as collegues, in a company that has over 100K employees world wide. I don't charge majority of my clients, they pay me based on what job they get from my lessons.
I have a great 9-5, and aside from rental properties, which I sold, I’ve been doing weekend house painting for 15+ years. Good, quick money and I was good at it. It’s a little back breaking now that I’m over 40, even though I’m in great shape… looking for the next hustle
Hey bro, you made a statement about being "comfortable" in positions. Let me retort....I like my job and what I do, but true COMFORT to me is being able to NOT go to work and spend my TIME instead of my money....doing things I WANT instead of what I NEED to do....feel me?
I tutor elementary subjects up to algebra 1. I am an educator, for 30 years now. I will retire at 53 this school year. I plan to continue tutoring, just more students. I would love to be a career coach after retirement as well!!
Wow! I am close to your age and I just started teaching full time four years ago. I was a substitute teacher and aide for many years previously. It has been a long road finding full time positions. I worked in other fields when I was younger. I give credit to people who went into teaching at a young age. I was too shy and nervous about public speaking then. I have become accustomed to it, but some days are tough.
@irene4508 good for you!! Teaching is definitely a tough yet rewarding field. I think it is wonderful you chose later to teach. It helps to have some life experience under your belt!! You hang in there and never be afraid to ask questions and reach out for advice!! Prayers for a successful year and career!!
I am retiring this year as well. It has been 37 years the good the bad and the ugly. It is just time for a change and time for me to be my own person. All the best to you.
Just discovered you. Thank you so much for this video. With rent increase, no raise and taking care of elderly parent I'm always looking to supplement my income.
I am good at remixing songs aka blending. I have the equipment but I fall short financially on trying to push my music. I have a friend that owns a store and wants my music, I found a company that will copy my cds and ship to me but the funds have been the issue. Feel free to stop by and take a listen to my music as I have plenty more. I need a newer laptop so I can go live also but there goes the lacking of money. I here money does not bring you happiness, yeah ok
I know! I'm glad I found a reply that acknowledges it. This is the second video of his I've watched, and neither actually address what the titles say, at least in detail. EVERYTHING he says, at least for the 2 vids I've seen, is vague or EXTREMELY niche.
My side hustle is driver’s ed instruction. It carries me through especially in the summer since my “9-5” is school bus driver and we don’t go year round in my area.
I really enjoy that your videos are broad and very inclusive. You give the baseline information and you share your experience and how it applies. You give ideas that people can build on. Making it work from there is the individuals gift and effort.
Community Colleges usually operate with a large number of part-time (adjunct) instructors. This may be true for four-year colleges in your area too. Usually, anyone with a masters degree would be qualified to teach in the department of your degree. My full-time job is pastor of a small church. I have taught many courses for my local community college in Psychology (I attained the M.A. in Psychology before pursuing ministry education). Advantages: Good pay for the time involved, variety of scheduling (evenings and sometimes Saturdays are needed), limit on the time demand- short-term commitments (when the semester ends the course ends and off during summer/Christmas or winder holiday break), and once you have syllabus and materials (lecture and exams) there is minimal time in preparation. Disadvantages: pay is not good enough to piece a full-time equivalent, could demand some extra time to prepare (especially if you have never taught an academic course), scheduling of courses may not fit easily with your full-time work, and you may have to drive to an extension campus that may require more time/money (sometimes reimbursement of travel expense may be added but not always).
My son just graduated in May 2024 with his masters of architecture. He was a grad assistant and was teaching a course. They asked him to continue teaching the class. He does have a full time job as well and the college is only a 15 minute commute. He also sings at weddings and does art work. So proud and excited for him
Hey Erick just found your channel and it’s AWESOME!! Honest and straightforward information. I will be going back and watching every video. 39 years old and USMC vet. I need to keep my 9-5 for insurance for family but want to start side hustle for the nice things in life. Who knows what it will become but you got to start somewhere and there’s no time like the present!! Keep up the great work!
I’m 42 getting ready to retire from the military and I don’t know what I want to do next. I don’t want another crazy 9-5 job just something I can do while the kids are at school
@@SmartMoneyBro I'm also studying to start a business in proofreading and copyediting. I know it seems like I'm doing a lot, but I was in the medical claims examination field and was laid off in it three times. I'll do whatever I need to to not be caught like that again.
Excellent ideas! I enjoy content like this, because we, like many Americans, are looking for ways to increase our income. Costs for vehicles, insurances, living expenses, garbage disposal, food, vehicle repairs, and many other things have skyrocketed over the last few years. This is great that you shared these ideas, and I hope they help people.
I work for a real estate agent during the day and it's a wonderful job! I LOVE to travel....so my side job is a hotel front desk clerk a few evening a week. Of course the extra money is good but so are the employee rate perks :)
I really like that youre telling pereons not to quit there jobs. Good. Imagine maxing your 9-5 to making money on the side. Nice strategy to gt wealthy
Thank you , I just now subscribed. I’m now 59. My 12 year old passed 2/23/24 , 3 days before my berth day. I feel so lost, empty . I love what you’re saying. Thank you.
I’m so sorry for your loss. I can’t imagine what you’ve walked through. I pray you have a church family and have support that I know I would need. I pray you understand God is with you always. I pray God gives you the comfort only He can provide.
I want to comment negatively about online sales specifically drop shipping as they aren't as logical to consumers in comparison to buying the same products from the two companies you mentioned with a quicker delivery time. Other than that I want to thank you for sharing and teaching more of us how to market ourselves, save our lives productively and think towards personal financial foundations. I hope to share one day in the near future.
Thank you for your videos! Very inspiring. I just need a kick in the rear to get something started finally. I have the time, desire and means, now I need to do it!
Fear is holding me back. I live alone but I could rent a room out but I’m always scared that I won’t be able to get the person out. I could monetize Embroidery but I wouldn’t know where to start. I’m a nurse practitioner so I can also consider takingBotox courses but they run in the thousands.
There is no way in hell I would rent out a room! Enjoy your space alone it's safer that way, until maybe down the road you are in a healthy trusting relationship or marriage.👍
Hey good morning great video just stumbled on this before work one of the best side hustle videos I've seen straight direct honest to the point awesome job have a great one thank you
Thank you 😊 for sharing your RUclips videos… I’ve enjoyed every one that I had the pleasure of watching. Of course I subscribed, hit the “Like” button and shared them with my fellow Marine Corps Veterans. So proud of you 👏… keep up the great work!
SMB, best (and only) side hustle video I've seen that makes any sense. Reason being it's about expanding on what you already are, NOT taking some boat ride ticket from an Honest John. Bottom line (with all of them), you have to eventually love, or at least like your creation, or it's not going to happen. I've recently discovered online POD through AI, which is flattering, but...Everything that grows gets weeds, nothing is set it and forget it. If I have a side hustle it's that and it's so much fun. But I know it's going to take months to see success (not weeks) so you've gotta 'be true to what you do!'. Thanks for a great foray into the idea of healthy side hustling.
What's YOUR side hustle? Comment below. Are you over 40 with nothing saved? Click here ↔️ ruclips.net/video/BiSTCNHt9ts/видео.html

I am good at remixing songs aka blending. I have the equipment but I fall short financially on trying to push my music. I have a friend that owns a store and wants my music, I found a company that will copy my cds and ship to me but the funds have been the issue. Feel free to stop by and take a listen to my music as I have plenty more. I need a newer laptop so I can go live also but there goes the lacking of money. I here money does not bring you happiness, yeah ok
Hes saying things i heard a million times. No in depth answers just buzzwords. Gift... talent...
I know! I'm glad I found a reply that acknowledges it. This is the second video of his I've watched, and neither actually address what the titles say, at least in detail. EVERYTHING he says, at least for the 2 vids I've seen, is vague or EXTREMELY niche.
He's a walking Ted Talks
I have a lawncare business on the side as well as a mini claw machine business that makes over 1.5k a month
My side hustle is driver’s ed instruction. It carries me through especially in the summer since my “9-5” is school bus driver and we don’t go year round in my area.
I really enjoy that your videos are broad and very inclusive. You give the baseline information and you share your experience and how it applies. You give ideas that people can build on. Making it work from there is the individuals gift and effort.
Thanks so much for these kind words....I appreciate it tremendously. Thanks for this comment and for your support!
Community Colleges usually operate with a large number of part-time (adjunct) instructors. This may be true for four-year colleges in your area too. Usually, anyone with a masters degree would be qualified to teach in the department of your degree. My full-time job is pastor of a small church. I have taught many courses for my local community college in Psychology (I attained the M.A. in Psychology before pursuing ministry education). Advantages: Good pay for the time involved, variety of scheduling (evenings and sometimes Saturdays are needed), limit on the time demand- short-term commitments (when the semester ends the course ends and off during summer/Christmas or winder holiday break), and once you have syllabus and materials (lecture and exams) there is minimal time in preparation. Disadvantages: pay is not good enough to piece a full-time equivalent, could demand some extra time to prepare (especially if you have never taught an academic course), scheduling of courses may not fit easily with your full-time work, and you may have to drive to an extension campus that may require more time/money (sometimes reimbursement of travel expense may be added but not always).
I teach online for several colleges since 2010. It's a good fit for me. I officially dumped my 9-5 in 2015.
My son just graduated in May 2024 with his masters of architecture. He was a grad assistant and was teaching a course. They asked him to continue teaching the class. He does have a full time job as well and the college is only a 15 minute commute. He also sings at weddings and does art work. So proud and excited for him
your explaination is very well executed...👍
Thanks Fam needed to hear this
Appreciate the Education/Motivation
Salute
No doubt!
Hey Erick just found your channel and it’s AWESOME!! Honest and straightforward information. I will be going back and watching every video. 39 years old and USMC vet. I need to keep my 9-5 for insurance for family but want to start side hustle for the nice things in life. Who knows what it will become but you got to start somewhere and there’s no time like the present!! Keep up the great work!
Awesome. You can do it. Feel free to reach out and ask questions. I'm here to help. Good luck!!
My side hustle is helping companies obtaining funding for US and Canada based small business and gigworkers.
I love It 😊
Nice!!
Great ideas! This gave me some ideas for promoting my freelance writing business.
I’m 42 getting ready to retire from the military and I don’t know what I want to do next. I don’t want another crazy 9-5 job just something I can do while the kids are at school
Online teaching, field inspections, chaplain work.
Excellent
@@SmartMoneyBro I'm also studying to start a business in proofreading and copyediting. I know it seems like I'm doing a lot, but I was in the medical claims examination field and was laid off in it three times. I'll do whatever I need to to not be caught like that again.
New subscriber here - this is an awesome informative video ! Just great, honest content. Not to mention motivational. Thank you for this!
Awesome! You're welcome
Amazing channel! Happy I stumbled upon it.
Welcome aboard! Thanks so much.
Love my 9-5, but there is room for improvement. Need a side hustle to help set things up better in the future
Excellent ideas! I enjoy content like this, because we, like many Americans, are looking for ways to increase our income. Costs for vehicles, insurances, living expenses, garbage disposal, food, vehicle repairs, and many other things have skyrocketed over the last few years. This is great that you shared these ideas, and I hope they help people.
I work for a real estate agent during the day and it's a wonderful job! I LOVE to travel....so my side job is a hotel front desk clerk a few evening a week. Of course the extra money is good but so are the employee rate perks :)
I really like that youre telling pereons not to quit there jobs. Good. Imagine maxing your 9-5 to making money on the side. Nice strategy to gt wealthy
Absolutely 💯
You should have been a southern Baptist Preacher, I bet you talk in your sleep. Keep up the good talk.
He’s doing much greater (empowering) work!
Thank you , I just now subscribed. I’m now 59. My 12 year old passed 2/23/24 , 3 days before my berth day. I feel so lost, empty . I love what you’re saying.
Thank you.
I'm sorry to hear about this. My condolences to you and your family. Hang in there Brotha. A new season of life is just around the corner!
So sorry for your loss Sir. May God strengthen and uphold you at this difficult time. I’ll pray for you and your family 🙏🏾
My prayers for you and your family. So truly sorry for the loss of your loved one. 🙏🏾
I’m so sorry for your loss. I can’t imagine what you’ve walked through. I pray you have a church family and have support that I know I would need. I pray you understand God is with you always. I pray God gives you the comfort only He can provide.
I want to comment negatively about online sales specifically drop shipping as they aren't as logical to consumers in comparison to buying the same products from the two companies you mentioned with a quicker delivery time. Other than that I want to thank you for sharing and teaching more of us how to market ourselves, save our lives productively and think towards personal financial foundations. I hope to share one day in the near future.
Thank you for your Awesome informativ Video! Great content ideas! 🤗
You are so welcome!
Just found you on RUclips and subscribed too. Great information!!
Awesome! Thank you!
Thank you for your videos! Very inspiring. I just need a kick in the rear to get something started finally. I have the time, desire and means, now I need to do it!
I'm a handyman on the side
I have followed for a while bro , as always great perspective
You truly inspired me. Thank you !
You are so welcome!
Fear is holding me back. I live alone but I could rent a room out but I’m always scared that I won’t be able to get the person out. I could monetize Embroidery but I wouldn’t know where to start. I’m a nurse practitioner so I can also consider takingBotox courses but they run in the thousands.
Be careful renting a room while living alone. That can be dangerous. Sounds like you have some other good possibilities to look into. Good luck!
There is no way in hell I would rent out a room! Enjoy your space alone it's safer that way, until maybe down the road you are in a healthy trusting relationship or marriage.👍
You’re great bro. Thanks for the advice.
Your a very encouraging man!
Thank you so much. I appreciate those kind words!!

Thank you 😊 for sharing your RUclips videos… I’ve enjoyed every one that I had the pleasure of watching. Of course I subscribed, hit the “Like” button and shared them with my fellow Marine Corps Veterans. So proud of you 👏… keep up the great work!
Thank you so much!

Father God bless & keep you & your loved ones always!!!
Good job buddy!!!

Awesome, thank you!
2 UBER airport rides per day= $1k extra per month
Alrighty then! I'm going to start a RUclips channel on how to be a world class couch potato and procrastinator... Right after my nap!
SMB, best (and only) side hustle video I've seen that makes any sense. Reason being it's about expanding on what you already are, NOT taking some boat ride ticket from an Honest John. Bottom line (with all of them), you have to eventually love, or at least like your creation, or it's not going to happen. I've recently discovered online POD through AI, which is flattering, but...Everything that grows gets weeds, nothing is set it and forget it. If I have a side hustle it's that and it's so much fun. But I know it's going to take months to see success (not weeks) so you've gotta 'be true to what you do!'. Thanks for a great foray into the idea of healthy side hustling.
This brotha right here sounds like the truth. Excellent ideas that are reasonable and actually work.
Thanks so much. I appreciate the kind words.
Just found your page. Thanks for the ideas. Appreciate you sharing.
Very motivating.
Great video. Thank you.
You are welcome!
"You don't need to quit your job"...
Yes, thank you, that's why it's called a side hustle!
I started an Etsy store, POD created 113 products. No sales :(
Run some sales and some incentives and promote your store across social media platforms.
