Question How can I

26 Upvotes

Make at least $200 from home without any degrees or an established job in a week? I can't leave my home to go anywhere and I need the money to pay for a medical treatment after insurance covers it. Are there any apps/websites that I can use? Nothing too complex or that requires extensive knowledge in.

Question What’s the laziest side hustle you’ve done from home that actually worked??

25 Upvotes

what’s the lowest-effort way you’ve made money from home that actually paid out? My wife’s been doing some UGC videos for brands on methods.app and a few survey sites, and it’s wild how well it’s been working for her. I’ve got some free time now and wanna try something similar, but not looking for anything super time-consuming or complicated. I prefer low effort gigs for a start

How school fails us!

7 Upvotes

I have realized something that changed my income level in life.

Schools will only teach you how to do a job well, but they DO NOT teach you how to GET PAID for doing that job.

Think about it, when you go to school, to become a dentist, doctor, plumber, electrician, accountant, clerk or anything, they will make you good at your job, but they WOULD NOT teach you a thing about how to negotiate your pay, how to get paid your worth, how to price your services etc.

If they did, then we would know a thing or two about how to get paid our worth.

Once i realized this, i took things in my own hands, and learned how to get paid well at work, how to negotiate my pay, how to get paid my worth.

Really, what you must do is learn the skill of salary negotiation and know how to position yourself as an employee thats "WORTH IT", only then you will get paid your worth.

I am sure you work hard but yet again when it comes to your pay, you feel limited, why is that? life is not meant to be limited, you have an equal right to make the best out of everything.

You have an equal right to income that best paid people have on world.

Please don't undersell yourself, and make sure you pick up a book on Negotiating your pay so that you can learn this very important skill in life.

Cheers.

Question Income Ideas

5 Upvotes

Hi y'all,

I'm a 19-year-old in college and for some time I've felt like I could do more, income-wise. I have dreams of being financially "free." I've realized that is better to be financially free than it is to be financially "stable." I do not want to work 9-5 for the rest of my life and there are things that I want to do that would require a lot of money such as buying a house for my mother as she has made lots of sacrifices for me and being able to cover all of my sister's college education so she wouldn't have to hustle like I did and have a better life.

I currently have a part-time job as a barista along with my college courses. I don't want to add more hours to my shifts otherwise I wouldn't be able to pass my classes. So I've been hearing about people making passive income and such. I found this subreddit and I wanted to know if y'all could suggest to me some ways to make money online.

Thank you.

Question For years I was tied to a corporate software job, now I can't find one. It's been 18 months. I've spent that on hobbies (indie games, writing fiction) and "permaculture training" but I can't go into agriculture. Now it's 2026 and I'm not sure what to do to generate income. Ideas?

3 Upvotes

I hate AI because while it can be impressive it feels like cheating. Also, it destroyed my industry (tech) and frankly tech has not been creative or interesting for me for 10 years. I hate the software job market.

Now that I have plenty of time, I'm not sure I have direction. In the warm months, I spend it in my back garden, which easily eats up my whole day. That's escapism.

In the winter, though, I find it hard to concentrate. I get sucked into LinkedIn and job searching but the job search is completely fruitless. I am wasting my time.

Things I'm doing now to fill my time:

- Ebay selling. Slow, really acts only as bonus income. "Fills the gas tank sometimes"
- "Codementor" a gig work mentoring site, which is incredibly difficult because its full of scammers and highly competitive for my skillsets (like as soon as I get the notification, the job is already filled)
- Indie game development. Doesn't pay enough to justify the time suck. Can't find a job at other indie firms either, really.
- Writing. It's like throwing time away.
- Volunteer at my local "tabletop RPG gameshop" (ends up costing me $)

Things I want to be too distracted to do:

- Doomscrolling LandSearch
- Doomscrolling LinkedIn
- Posting on Reddit
- Pot-watching my Robinhood account

In the end, I need to generate income somehow. My wife is going to lose her job within the next two years almost certainly, and we need health care. I can't retire for 9 years. I need a flexible way of getting money. I need to make about half what I used to make, so somewhere between 40k and 60k.

I've thought about working in big box retail but I don't think it's worth it because its a demand on my time that is not worth the money. I'd rather find some other way of generate the same amount of income, or more. It's a rare time in my life when I have the temporary cushion of being able to explore other options.

Poll Trying a New Income Stream Every Month – What Should I Try for March?

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’ve decided to challenge myself to try a new income stream every month and document the entire process what works, what doesn’t, and whether it’s actually worth the effort.

For some background, I already do forex trading, blogging, and some digital marketing, but I want to experiment with different ways to make money online. My goal is to test out various side hustles, share my experience, and (hopefully) find a few that are sustainable.

I’m starting fresh in March, so I’d love some ideas! What online income streams do you think are worth trying? Bonus points if they don’t require a huge upfront investment.

I’ll track my results and share updates along the way. Let me know what you’d be curious to see tested!

I desperately need to get a vehicle, I'm hoping for a nicely used mini van, I'm on a set income of under a 1,000 a month. Due to my situation and location, I'm struggling to come up with a way I can earn cash/palpay income to save for wheels. I've tried playing games online, and that didn't go well, I even thought of selling panties, but when I looked into that, they show and do way more then this old ladies willing to.

My mind doesn't work like the most of you in this channel. I have seen a lot of good posts along with answers in this community so, I've decided to put my trust here.

I have some extra available space and would like to monetize it somehow without renting. Some things I have been thinking about is using that space to help business owners with storage at a lower than usual cost. I am also exploring different business's I can potentially pursue within that space. What are some of your thoughts and area you would pursue?

Hey, currently I am looking to work on a new income or a second income that I can turn into a main income or a supportive income. I want to start an online business currently my income is around $37k/yr I want to boost that by a lot and start making a more professional and secure income. If anyone can help me out with different ideas or things online I can search for or possibly stick my hand into wether it’s learning a new skill or investing into my own I’m open to anything if you have a question just ask me I’ll be able to give you the information to help. I do have experience with running my own business and work and online freelance work with marketing, editing, and project management for social media. With my own business I am working on looking to start my own podcast one day regarding musical artist and various topics earlier in the year I did do a soft launch and some work but it was really just for planning and me seeing everything I have to work on, but that is something I plan to launch further in the future once I am able to stabilize my lifestyle and income (not saying I need to fund or be up financially to invest in the idea but as of right now I need to work on a secondary investment not only as a fail safe but to clear debt and help me financially) of course I don’t expect to to make me rich quick but where’s the start what should I start looking for and learning to build my income and really make that jump to a new financial lead? Thank you and help works!

Question I am thinking of developing a patform where anybody can get paid for their skills. Would this be useful?

3 Upvotes

So I am thinking of developing a platform where anybody with any skill/experience can sign up and create a listing for that skill/experience.

Other persons can then search the platform for the skills/experiences that they need to learn from.

The "expert" (They don't need to be an expert and the skill can literally be advanced calculus to making great cupcakes) can either sell their knowledge either via video calls, or just answering questions, or both. And they set their own price for each of these.

I include experiences because sometimes people just need to get information from other people who have already gone through something. It could be applying for a certain college, or going through a health issue.

Is this interesting? Would any of you be intersted in using it? Or more saliently, does this already exist, and I just can't find it?
