Side Hustles are fun and exciting if you do what you love. You will get money and at the same time joy. A user asked the forum, “What side hustle brings you the most joy?” Here are the top responses.
MYSTERY SHOPPING ASSIGNMENTS
“Mystery shopping assignments where I’m getting a free meal or service that I need.”
DIRECTOR
“I’m the Information and Technology (IT) Director for a non-profit. The money isn’t great, but it’s welcomed additional income. The cause itself is great, and I love supporting it.”
VIDEO EDITING
“Video editing. Currently making no money off it, but I want to keep making entertaining videos for TikTok/Instagram and eventually profit off it through various means.”
TRADING STOCKS
“Trading stocks. I enjoy doing it at home, and the $1500-$2000 a month I make, I use to reinvest for my future. It goes towards my financial security fund.”
FOCUS GROUPS
“Focus groups. Not consistent money, so it’s low on my priority list, but they’re always pretty entertaining.”
WOODWORKING
“Woodworking. It is mainly a hobby & the money made goes back into more tools, but it could make a decent side income if that were the intention.
CODING
“Learning to code and coding trading bots because you can see the progression day by day when it’s trading, also fun to mess with and work on optimizing it.”
HIKING AND CREATING YOUTUBE VIDEOS
“I love hiking, so creating videos on YouTube about my local and overseas hikes seemed the next logical step. I’m still far from monetization, but this side hustle feels fun.”
TEACHING PEOPLE HOW TO START A NEWSLETTER
“Teaching people how to start a newsletter. It’s free, and if you never want to continue, it’s no cost to you. I have an entire blog about it and have been growing steadily.”
WEDDING BARTENDER
“Wedding Bartender. Yes, it takes up a Friday or Saturday, but my wife and I work them together and take home anywhere from $400-800 in cash, depending on the wedding size and other factors like if they tip, etc. We even have a Venmo sign that we put out for those ‘oh I forgot cash’ people.”
SELLING WEBSITE TEMPLATES
“Selling website templates. It brings me joy because it’s passive and requires 5 minutes a month. But I only earn around $1000 a month, which is not life-changing in my state. Just a nice bonus.”
ONLINE TRAVEL AGENCY
“Online travel agency, I’ve experienced so many fun activities and have been able to sell them to others.”
ONLINE FITNESS COACHING BUSINESS
“I run an online fitness/nutrition coaching business as someone big into health/wellness. I love it so much!”
SELLING MANGOES
“Seasonally, I sell mangoes. I ship premium mangoes all over the United States. I have over varieties.”
WRITING
If you’re a writer, try joining Medium’s partner program. It takes some time to build up enough subscribers, though. I’ve only made a few bucks here and there, but I don’t post very often. I’m sure I’d make quite a bit more if I did.”
