author of the financially independent millennial and today we're going to be talking about side
hustles when thinking about a side hustle the first thing you'll need to consider is if you want
to do it online or offline online side hustles are almost usually done completely on a computer while

you never miss a video thanks to social media and people being so busy finding a side hustle to make
extra money is easier than ever there's nothing stopping you from starting an online side hustle
and finding some new customers if you're wondering how much money you can make many of these can
easily make you a thousand dollars a month or more so let's get started with a few online side
hustles the first one i've got for you is teaching or tutoring on skype or zoom i think teaching is
one of the best side hustles because everyone has something that they know better than others
so why not teach something you're good at and make some extra money online the best part about
teaching online is that you can do it no matter where you are even at a beach yes if you're a
travel addict like i am and want to make an extra thousand dollars a month or more consider teaching
a language like english or a second language or maybe even a skill like cooking whatever you're
good at it'll work and once you've become good at teaching you can create an online course that
you can sell 24 hours a day even when you sleep here's how it works sites like udemy and teachable
they offer you a platform to upload materials like pdfs and videos for your course then you can sell
them for a hefty profit for example if your course is 100 bucks all you need to do is sell 10 of them
a month to make a thousand dollars now are you a lawyer or an accountant or maybe a mechanic or a
plumber either way for this next side hustle if you're a skilled professional you can help
people by answering their questions on just answer justanswer has many professionals people like you
to answer people's everyday questions and you get paid for answering them if you have high level
skills like experience in law medicine or i.t you can get paid to answer all of these questions for
people that's pretty cool for my next side hustle consider becoming an online freelance writer if
you have a knack for writing you could write for other bloggers on their websites or even
become a ghostwriter for someone famous to get started as a freelance writer you can create a
profile on sites like upwork or freelancer or even fiverr by the way the links are all below in the
description and if you're really good at writing and have something to say why not write a book
look i love royalties it's an excellent way to earn passive income and passive income is the
foundation of becoming financially independent and royalties from books come in every time you sell
a book so start writing and when you're done you can publish your book on a site like amazon kdp
kdp allows you to sell your ebooks to amazon customers if writing comes naturally to you
writing a book costs practically nothing to produce and if writing isn't your forte well
don't worry writing is something that practically anybody can learn remember the best part is the
royalty that you earn when you sleep then after your book is published repeat the process and
make an audio book you can use a platform like acx to create and sell audio books on sites like
audible and itunes and you can start by creating an audio book for the book you just wrote with
the right amount of marketing book royalties can certainly make a thousand dollars a month or more
next i'll talk about how you can sell real products online have you ever sold anything
on ebay or craigslist or even amazon well when i was in my early twenties i used to buy computer
parts on craigslist and from flea markets and i then i'd sell them on ebay it's known as product
flipping and it can earn you at least a thousand dollars a month i know i did it so here's how it
works start by browsing listings on craigslist for items that you can deliver or ship inexpensively
think about little things like household appliances collectibles or anything that you
can easily ship into a small punch then check and see how much similar items are selling for on ebay
and amazon and then you can go ahead and buy from one place and sell on the other now here's a tip
when reselling something online be sure to take good photos of the item and get creative when
you're writing the descriptions that way you'll get the best price now if reselling other people's
products isn't really for you i get it what about selling homemade products things that you've
made online etsy is one of those online sellers offering a community for those who put their heart
and soul into making homemade goods for the online market also if you're into graphic art etsy also
gives you the ability to sell graphic art you know like posters that can be printed now we're coming

somebody else but instead of going to the office you'll be working online so let's dig in the
first thing about becoming an online contractor is knowing where to market yourself there's two main
sites to advertiser services fiverr and upwork these two platforms are fantastic as they have
