Chase Dreams 3 e1564617464820 - 3 Unexpected Costs of Reaching Your Dreams

3 Unexpected Costs of Reaching Your Dreams

Leave a Comment

Today is a guest post from Brigid Ludwig of Siege Media on the top unexpected costs you may not have thought of when first venturing out on your own with a side hustle. Here's Brigid: Everyone wants to make more money. Whether it's disrupting the tech industry or to make enough to travel the world as a digital nomad, people are attracted to starting their own business venture. That's why 33 percent of the American workforce is self-employed.  More and more people are seeking self-employment to take control of their income.   Although starting your own side hustle or business venture is widely appealing, when it comes to setting out on your own, the process can be intimidating. Securing your first client can be difficult. Balancing all those expenses and taxes at the end of the day can be tedious. It requires patience and determination to be a freelancer or business owner.  In the beginning, rather than financial freedom and creative fulfillment, you'll likely need to put …

Use These Focus Groups and Survey Companies to Make Some Extra Cash to Invest

Leave a Comment

  Being able to join a focus group online or take an online survey in return for some extra cash always feels good. Before when I was looking for a job when I got out of school, my mom told me there were focus groups in the city I could join for $100 a pop. I went once and it was nice.  I mean I got the $100. But it took up my whole day just to take part in the focus group.  The session itself lasted on average, I would say, for about an hour and a half for the ones I did. I had to walk to the train station, take the train to the city which took about an hour, then walk or take a subway to the location, wait for it to start, join the group discussion of the focus group, wrap up it up and take the train back home for an hour. I'm exhausted just reading that over!  It took so much longer just to travel than actually participate. And even when you get to the focus group, a moderator leads the discussion making it even longer. Sometimes at least from my experiences, each …

24 Ways to Make Money This Year

Leave a Comment

Learning how to make extra money can be a tremendous benefit for your financial life.  It releases the burden of feeling like you always don't have enough money to save or enough to enjoy life while saving at the same time.  Even if you make just an extra couple hundred bucks, it can make all the difference between you being stressed out and taking a sigh of relief.   Some reasons to make extra money can be: Pay off debt quicker Save for a down payment on a house Invest in courses or books to learn more Invest in company stock to build up a net worth and retire sooner Make you feel more productive and in control of how much you make Not rely on one source of income   Even if you have a full-time job, sometimes you might feel stuck or trapped in a position you despise or believe you're ready to be promoted to receive a boost in salary, and it's just not in the cards for you right now the way things are playing out. I know that feeling, because …

Cats e1534901543904 - Make $11,520 Extra This Year Playing with Cats

Make $11,520 Extra This Year Playing with Cats

2 Comments

I was listening to a podcast episode of So Money with Farnoosh Torabi this week and came across a pretty awesome side gig from the person she was interviewing. I know, I suck, because I forget which exact episode it was. BUT, she was cat sitting part-time for her neighbors. Imagine getting paid $20 for 20 minutes just to play with a cat and take pictures to send to the owner to show everything was okay. It literally sounds like the best job ever. You know when you hear people say "do what you love and you'll never work a day in your life"? Yea, I think they were talking about this. Just think, if you were able to schedule even just 2 hours of "work" each Saturday and Sunday or some other two days of the week, you could make $240 extra that week. In only 2 days! For playing with cats! Man, if I wasn't allergic to fur, I'd be all over this, especially living in the city. There's definitely so much opportunity to chill with some cats. Maybe there's a hypoallergenic filter online. …

5 Ways to Make Extra Money This Week

There are so many different ways to make a side income. It can be through a part-time job, a side gig online or offline. Really anything you have an interest in can probably have the potential to make you money. It's always good to have a buffer in income in case there are unexpected expenses that come up like busted pipes, a broken refrigerator or even something like a friend's wedding you were just recently invited to and have to drop $300 on a gift and rent a hotel room for the weekend. Womp.   Related posts: 10 Ways to Make Money from the Comfort of Your Home This Week Create Your Own Blog Through SiteGround 66% of Americans are Losing Hundreds of Thousands of Dollars The Number One Mistake Costing You Millions Millennials are Ruining Their Chances for Retirement and How to Fix it Now   The point is, there's an option out there suited for everyone to earn more whether it be for emergency purposes, investing purposes or whatever your little …

10 Ways to Make Money from the Comfort of Your Home This Week

  Have you ever found yourself wishing you could make a little extra cash, but without having to leave your room?  Yea what a coincidence, me too. Ever since I got into blogging, I've been interested in other ways people make extra money on the side without ever having to leave their home.  It just seems so much more convenient and practical, especially if what you're thinking of doing for a side job that's outside of your home pays just as much or less than what you could be earning from simply using a computer or laptop. In my opinion, it's definitely much easier and relaxing to have the luxury of working from home.   Related posts: Create Your Own Blog Through SiteGround The Money is in Your Email List: Which Provider to Use, the Ultimate Review The #1 Mistake Costing You Millions   Benefits of  a side gig from home: No commuting Set your own hours Reduces distraction No useless meetings Better overall mood   It …

The Money is in Your Email List: Which Provider to Use, the Ultimate Review

Leave a Comment

  Starting a blog without an email list is one of the biggest mistakes beginner bloggers make. Your list is the link to your biggest, most loyal fans. It's one of the most valuable resources you have for things like validation and gathering data. You won't find more honest feedback than through your list because it's an interactive way of staying in touch with your readers. It's the key to maintaining a relationship with your audience. A lot of people don't take it seriously enough or worse, don't even see the need to have one if they aren't selling anything. The point of an email list isn't to sell your readers something. It's to have an engaging rapport so you begin to understand their wants and needs related to your blog. Your profitability from the blog is a byproduct of this ongoing relationship through recommended products and services you use yourself. These are the people who want to hear what you have to say. They are the ones you can have a back and forth …
