Related to the Uber discussion we were having, just saw flashed up on CNBC
48% of americans have a "side hustle"
1/3 use it to make ends meat.
$1,200 average monthly earnings.
Don't know how accurate, but interesting none the less.
I remember my grandpa telling me all his great side hustle stories from his working days
At least that "position" assumes you already have a job as a lawyer. Not quite as exploitative as the non-paying adjunct jobs occasionally popping up that are targeted at unemployed PhDsSorry chat thread lawyers y'all missed out on this great opportunity: https://careers.insidehighered.com/job/1805206/adjunct-faculty-volunteer-/

Interesting, but can't possibly be true.
Really? That number sounds low. I assume a "side hustle" is any somewhat steady source of income that you work for beyond your primary job. Could be consulting. Could be babysitting. Could be driving Uber. Could be a second job.
Despite a healthy economy and growing labor force, 3 out of every 10 American workers who have taken on a side hustle say they need that second job to simply make ends meet.
That’s according to Bankrate.com’s latest Side Hustle Survey of 2,550 full-time and part-time working adults conducted online in early May.
The average side hustler brings in an extra $1,122 per month, working 12 additional hours a week, Bankrate.com said.
Millennials are the most likely age demographic to take advantage of the gig economy, the survey found, with 31% percent of young adults (those between ages 23 and 38) saying they earn extra money on the side to boost their savings. That number drops for their parents and grandparents, to 16% of Gen X and 18% of baby boomers, respectively.
"
Still seems high to me, but probably a median/mean thing would explain it. but 31% is still high for any age group.
The most popular side gigs, reveals the study, are home repair and landscaping, followed by online sales, crafts and child care. But fitness is also a huge draw.
I assume the same definition, but there's no way 48% of America has one that pays $1,200 a month.
what are some examples of side hustles for the 1%?
