Retired. So my pension is my income and my side hustle is social security.

Retired here too.

I could make plantation shutters but it’s my hobby right now, and doing any for work will only complicate my finances. I only make them for my house and my grown kids.

Also, there’s a reason they cost so much money: it’s a lot of labor to make, finish and hang them.

so far I'm down a lot but hey you gotta spend money to make money, right?

I got that over with quickly. Best guess the coroner could give us was that he'd been dead at least 6 days in the middle of summer. It was rough, but learning to breath thru your mouth, and Vick's under your nose while wearing a mask works wonders. He was a direct cremation so within an hour and a half of being picked up, he was in the retort. 138 minutes, at 1650 degrees takes care of any odors quickly.

Buy/sell/barter/trade anything I can make money on. It’s really more of a hobby than side hustle. I make a lot of money taking advantage of peoples laziness and just being in the right place at the right time or creating these scenarios via being an opportunist.

I turn stuff. Pens mostly but I also do bottle stoppers, openers, ect. I also do small wood working projects like cutting boards, chopsticks, stuff like that. I'll never get rich but I do sell enough stuff to buy more or better tools so I'm happy.

I flip stuff on eBay.

Somehow word got out I could "fix things" and that led to all manner of odd jobs.

At the moment I am so busy I don't have time to mow my own grass!

Frankly I'm shocked people won't do their own work but let's face it, most people are quite fat and frankly, lazy. They spend all day and night with their gods: smartphone and sugar.

My wallet though, is happy with that.

I sell my 3D printed items on ebay.

Just started a few months ago.

It's really just my gun fund money. Working on building a precision rifle. About to order a chassis from the sales.

Mostly aerial photo/video. When I was between jobs I made enough to pay the bills and keep me from relying on unemployment, but at the moment it’s mostly just enough to fund my FPV hobby.

I watch the online classifieds for free garage sale leftovers. I pickup whatever looks good and sell it on consignment at a thrift shop. Strangely enough I make lots of money on Star magazine. A $10 subscription will get me back 50 over the year.

I work at a ski resort's clinic. Around 3 shifts/month during the season. I ski for free, get a second free pass for the day and make a couple hundred bucks for the day. Works out to about $3,000 for the ski season and free shipping. And if the clinic isn't busy, I just ski all day with a radio and get paid. Pure gravy!

So your like a medical director for a ski patrol? That is fun.

Kinda. We have a clinic medical director, who is an orthopedic surgeon. He runs the place and coordinates with the director of the Ski Patrol. It's a good time.

Not really a side hustle, but I occasionally trade some tractor work for tools, beer, equipment, and other stuff.

Today was one of the first times I’ve ever gotten paid and that was $200 for 1 hour worth of work. Had to dig up 7 stumps and they didn’t even want the holes filled or areas graded.

Oh boi these hustles might disgruntle me from time to time but I'm young...
I go to school for Aerospace Engineering(MAIN JOB).
I work for a small firearms/precision rifle business in AL(Part-time).
I work for a small defense contractor in AL(Full-Time this summer).
I plan to get my FFL, CFI, and other money-making qualifications in a few years. I got too much else planned but let's see where this all goes. I almost over-committed myself by picking up a restaurant job lol.
