Life is very expensive, and money is something that seems to escape through our hands so often. Often, we hit brick walls with our current salaries. It may be that after several years of working in one job you have reached a level that you cannot really get much higher up from. Progress can be slow, and the pay rises stop happening. But yet the cost of living always carries on relentlessly.
There is a solution to this problem, and that would be to get yourself a side hustle that pays well and can be managed easily within your spare time. Here are a few suggestions of ways that you can earn some extra money without having to find a completely new job.
Let Out Your Spare Room
If you have a spare bedroom in your home you could let this out. You could either find a lodger who will be able to provide you with a regular passive income. Or, alternatively, you could let the room out using Airbnb. Have a look at this Airbnb management company that can help you let out your spaces.
Of course, when you have a string of guests coming through your doors you will lose some of your privacy. You may decide to separate off some of the home to allow some personal space for yourself away from your visitors.
If you live in a popular area, you could achieve quite a high rental income. And, because it would be short term lets, the charge by day would work out considerably more than if you were letting to a permanent tenant.
Take Up Writing
If you have a way with words and you enjoy a challenge, then blogging or content writing may well be for you. There are plenty of different websites such as Freelancer, and Upwork where you can find small, short term jobs that will add to your income. The beauty of that kind of work is that it is extremely flexible, you can do it wherever and whenever you like. Often the projects that you will get will be small enough that you can complete them in half an hour to an hour, and most jobs pay very promptly. There really is no fuss.
Dabble In Cryptocurrencies
If you would like to earn some money for doing very little, why not speculate a little in cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin? You will need to do some research to make sure you understand how the system works, as it is not like conventional money, or even like handling stocks and shares. You should also have a look at how the market has been doing and whether you are buying them at the right time or not.
Paid Surveys
A great way of earning a little bit of extra money is to do paid surveys. These online surveys can be done when you are sat watching TV in an evening and don’t really require much thought, and many will take just a few minutes.
