What is your side gig?

Met someone earning $500+ a week selling individual bath bombs off amazon after buying them in pallets from china. Pretty genius imo, especially after seeing him running his "business" during lectures when I was sitting next to him in class a few years ago. Whats your side gig?

Youtube channel. 20,000 subscribers, make some extra cash off of sponsored posts (~$500 a week if I really work on it, average around $200)

 

It's on cryptocurrency. So I make money when I do review posts of ICOs. Most ICOs will pay me $500 for a video, sometimes I'll get talked down to $400, and I normally find someone every 1-2 weeks. ICOs raise a lot of money, and normally have large advertising budgets, and are willing to pay this much since my videos always get at least 10K views with a lot of engagement in the comment section. I still do my own research and make sure that I'm not promoting scams and the like, because that would reflect poorly on me.

And I also have some of my friends copy and paste these templates that I wrote up, of what to say, and I give them a 20% cut if they find me new business.

 

I'm starting a mostly-online business right now. Finishing up the website this week, and I just got the product from my supplier in Turkey last week. Now I have to find some artists for designs and learn how to ship shit easily on top of my day job.

If I can actually turn my current inventory, I stand to make about $30k. No idea what the timing on that will be like, or how much demand I can drum up while being able to scale.
