Paid mentorship opportunities (during MBA)?

Ignore title but currently first year MBA student at H/S coming out of two years as an associate at a UMM fund. Obviously saved up some money during that stint but wondering if anyone here has gotten some side income from doing paid mentorship calls during their MBA? Would be nice to have some extra spending money so I'm not burning savings during MBAI like giving career advice / mock interviews and know there's a bunch of services out there that offer this (WSO has one, office hours, etc) and heard a rumor people are making solid money for a few hours of week of working.Just curious if anyone has done this and can give thoughts? I don't really like the idea of doing this under my real name (I know my previous firm logo will be the selling point and I can't imagine they'd love it) so also wondering if anyone has been able to do it anonymously

You should check out Leland. It's a coaching platform made by a GSB student, and it coaches prospective students/students on MBA admissions, consulting case interviews, etc.
