25 Side Hustles That Pay $50/hr or MORE

[@ronaldjones996]

I am a retired family physician and my fantasy side hustle was to offer my services to take patients to doctor appointments. While I wouldn’t involve myself in their care directly, I could take notes and do some translation of the medical jargon. Like your 25 side hustles, I suspect this could be quite lucrative!

About 20 yrs ago, i met a lovely lady who's business was home handy gal/painting. Her work was mostly with older ladies. Most women, particularly if they're alone, frail, or anxious, aren't particularly keen on having a strange man in their home to do work. This gal did great word of mouth, and had many repeat customers for everything from moving/assembling furniture, carpet cleaning, simple plumbing fixes, lots of painting, and the like.

My first side hustle was selling Coca-Cola to construction workers out of my little red wagon at age 5. I lived on a dead end street that was being developed into a huge suburb. Sold out every day.

[@brucemorris3830]

Ha! I was a poop scooper part time for a while. Not independent but the company I worked for booked all the clients, provided me an old truck and even gave me a GPS unit (pre smart phone era). I gotta tell you, when I was stringing part time jobs together for a while? That was actually one of my favorite ones! Drive around on somebody else’s dime, spend the whole day outdoors, and best of all get to meet dozens of new dogs! 😂 If I decided I needed another side gig I’d probably be more inclined for dog walking instead, but scooping yards was not terrible.

Repairing things can also prove valuable and certainly necessary. It depends what it is. After 3 children, 2 degrees and a lockdown I found my passion for repairing, upgradinģ and upcycling clothes and sell them. I have new fabrics but what makes me the happiest is making use of what we have already, so a nice jersey stretch top that is too small I can cut up and use the fabric for cuffs for instance. I did buy the best sewing machines out there. I find it very creative and therapeutic.

Lawn mowing I can say is realy good. When my brother and I were around 11 or so years of age we got into it by chance. A local builder had done some units for a government contract. Part of it was the lawns had to be mowed for 6 weeks. As our father, who had a carying business, brought the sand and gravel for the concreting, he ask dad if we would do the lawns. We were happy to help. Dad applied and got the contract to mow the lawns from there, us boys done the work. Dad bought us a second mower. From there we had to buy fuel etc for mowers. We bit by bit ended up with 20 or more lawns. Where we lived was high rainfall, and lawns needed doing every week for a lot of the year. $1 a lawn if we used the customers mower, $2 if we used ours. On a Saturday we would go from around 8 am to 6 pm or so. Then after school some days. This is 1968 or so. Wages was around a dollar an hour for an adult. We were earning around $30 plus a week at 10 or 12 years old. More than pocket money

[@angier2289]

I think the amount of disposable income varies a lot depending on the city,the cost of living in that city and the prevailing salary levels and local levels of unemployment. People may well be paying the amounts Nicole is referencing in this video in Toronto but that’s not the case in Victoria where cost of living is massively high and salaries are comparatively low, especially when considering the cost and extremely high cost of housing (compared to local salaries). For the majority, there’s not a lot of spare cash after they pay their mortgage and buy groceries. If they also have children, cost of daycare is likely sending them into overdraft. If the market is there where you are though, go for it. Wax those brows, pick up those poops and change out those tires and watch the cash roll in.

Anything in the pet industry (if you do not get burned out with the customer service side aka 'dealing with people' hahaha) can be lucrative. I had a very successful pet care business that had staff at one point because it kept growing. I burned out because I am not built to manage people and forgot my original reason why I started it in the first place (the pets). So if you are smart, you can make it quite lucrative AND you'll have customers who'll keep you for the life of their pets (or as long as they're living in the area). My biz lasted 20017-2020.

I paid the neighbors kid to feed/water and clean the cat box for 2 weeks every year while we vacationed. I paid half the going boarders rate. Good, easy money for a 14 year old. No playing but pets if they wanted. One cat might want pets, but never did. No taxes for her and no cat boarding illnesses when we got home. The oldest cat hated boarding and always came back sick which meant an expensive vet $$$, visit plus boarders want a vet certificate of vaccinations and health which cost $$ The going rate is $27 a day x 14 days= $380.

[@michalinkazofia]

I live in Poland and we have to pay taxes and have a registered company for many of jobs you were refering to. Reseling items is trackable and you can easly figure out how much you have to pay taxes. And also when you are doing it frequently you have to pay insurance and other fees. It is about minimal wage and is not depanding on how much you earn. And you have to have accountant because law is changing all the time so in order to do your thing you have to hire someone to do taxes. So tutoring is also a frequent job and minors can’t do it. Maybe you could pick up poo or petsitting from time to time, but many people do not give cash for that. You can have a homecooked meal or recive a handshake. I know many people work in grey area and try to get paid but when it is illegal you can be reported and then have to pay taxes. Also any activity regarding meal prep have to have approved place to do it - sanitary regultions.

[@AzazelsWings]

Same in the us

[@AzazelsWings]

Also insurance, no one here will let you paint their home or teach swimming lessons etc without being insured and certified etc

[@ilektrakaratasiou3352]

As for selling on ebay. Ebay includes tax in every sale.

[@derhard706]

Exactly my thought. Not only do you have to have an approved place for meal prep, you also have to get yourself tested (poo test and such) on diseases on a regular basis. Selling used stuff also has been under regulation since last year (I think anything exceeding €2000 or more than 30 items a year), at least on ebay. Otherwise you'll get reported to the IRS/tax bureau and have to prove you're not a commercial seller. Our governments really know how to make money out of our hard work...

I was wondering if you'd mention dog poop scooping. For those who are laughing at her mentioning it, I had a professional pet care business from 2007 - 2020. At its height when I had multiple people working for me (before I burned out and had to restructure for my health/sanity), I had legitimately 3 regular "poop scooping" clients for that business. We'd rock up, scoop the poop (which we were doing ANYWAY because hello pet care business so it isn't like we are poop adverse) and leave. Paid.

[@VanessaChats]

Some other pet industry hustles that do not require skills or experience: "Pet wedding attendant". Pets are now starting to become part of peoples' weddings so you can offer either to baby sit the pet, get it ready for its debut (if it's part of the ceremony in some way) and then take it home (or offer continuing dog boarding with you). As with everything in the wedding industry, it's lucrative. I will say those who can handle a variety of dog breeds and temperaments (aka dog trainers) will benefit more or you can basically stick to certain breeds. "Pet Taxi" - you ARE going to have to be open to taxi-ing people AND their pets. Most of the ride share apps won't allow pets to ride with people so offering a Pet Taxi service where you can allow the pet owner to ride with you (and their pet) can earn you more money than Uber, etc. Also, there are times when people need you to taxi ONLY the pet from point A to point B so it can be easy in that way too.

When she was sick, medication also. It seems to me it's quite common here (some charge more, some less). The guy who used to come to me also had a service "stocking up your fridge before you get home" for a fiver plus whatever you out on your shopping list.

Selling items (put together and configured) is also on my list. It's a bit risky, but some clever items could work for eBay or similar.

I teach the Canadian Firearms Safety Courses (for people who want to get their license). With 10 students, I can easily gross $4000 in a weekend. I have more demand than I have capacity to deliver courses.

The gig economy has screwed many of us, at least in America. We have to forgo healthcare, social security benefits, a living wage... and basic labor protections that have been circumvented by greedy corporations who outsource American jobs to American gig-workers. It works well for some, but for every person who makes a good living, there are probably 10 struggling just to pay the rent. I know some Doordash drivers that literally live in vans in McDonald's parking lots. But as they say, "your mileage may vary". Don't get me wrong, I enjoy your channel. I find it very helpful in navigating the new reality of trying to survive post-employment. Just understand that though you rail against corporate culture, "the gig economy" is the ultimate corporate wet dream. ☮💙
