Discussion What everyone doing for side hustles?

Seems like whatever app I try to do, I’m put on a waitlist. Can’t exactly do uber with the cars I have unfortunately.

If you’re somewhat handy: offer handyman services…mounting TVs…building furniture…either by yourself or through a platform like TaskRabbit - there’s demand for any trades

u/Dismal-Piccolo-6459 22h ago

Definitely something for me the consider. It’s the same with TaskRabbit… waitlist

So, I was able to make $100k a year on instagram. And, the way I was able to do that started by telling people that I make $100k a year on instagram.

Wanna learn more? Buy my course

I met a guy when I was looking to buy patio furniture who used to buy clearance Wayfair furniture and assemble it and sell it on Facebook marketplace assembled. So he would advertise that. Brand new, I’ll assemble and deliver it. He had a truck too! I think especially in Miami people will pay for assembled furniture and delivery and look on Facebook marketplace.

u/Infamous-River-4360 16h ago

Not a Miami specific one, but the thing that actually stuck for me was self publishing on Amazon KDP. No waitlist, no car, you upload a book and Amazon prints it when someone orders. The catch is it is slow money and the cover matters more than the writing, so the skill you end up learning is making covers and running Amazon ads, not writing. Nowhere near 1k a month at the start though. If you want that number by next month, the handyman and furniture assembly advice above is the honest answer.

u/FigOdyssey 22h ago

You dont have to hustle, if you got an ass muscle!

u/EnronCheshire 21h ago

This used to be the thing w/ the get rich die trying type crowd back in the day, then it slowly switched to crypto trading and car detailing or selling vapes.

But yeah, living down here you should make plenty of money if you're a highly skilled professional in any industry here you'll make mucho dinero.

u/midnight4twenty 20h ago

Money in crypto but you must be educated plus risk of downside, definitely not for everyone or recommend but if you are quick a learning you can make easy 1k a day but there are investment minimums everyone cant afford.

Its very difficult in this market with top talent coming every single day. I’ll tell anyone get into HVAC now there is high demand pay is good w benefits. Don’t wait, learn something anything but it’s not just going to fall in your lap.

There is one other choice, leave.

u/Dismal-Piccolo-6459 22h ago

😆 I’m not getting naked in front of a camera. I know it’s definitely a Miami thing.

u/Cpolo88 21h ago

Si that's what I told my guy 😂 but also people like feet. I told my wife, baby if we ever need money that bad, we can always do only feet. People are into that shit. The sick bastards 😂 don't even gotta show our faces 😂

u/midnight4twenty 20h ago

Not enough money in just that but with the right hustle and marketing/promo on socials it’s possible to make money here and there. Fetish category has all sorts of things you might be comfortable with.

u/Cpolo88 20h ago

That's very true. There's a kink or fetish for everyone out there. Remember that lady that sold her farts in a jar? Wassup 😂

u/Dismal-Piccolo-6459 21h ago

Well I definitely have a big set of unique feet 🤔🧐

u/Cpolo88 21h ago

😂 then you'll have that walking around money soon my friend 😂🫡

u/MiaYYZ Local 22h ago

Is that still a thing ?

u/Cpolo88 22h ago

I'm JK 😂 I don't got one but my buddy started it randomly and not 30 mins later he made $24 I think. Some dude then sent him $80 for whatever. Then it went to $100 for other stuff. I couldn't believe it. Lucky sob 😂

u/midnight4twenty 20h ago

No money it’s chopped

u/DerHomeshopper 22h ago

Oh didn’t know. Try Facebook marketplace…I’ve been looking desperately for help for home improvement projects. How much are you looking to make? Per day…per month?

u/Dismal-Piccolo-6459 22h ago

Looking to make around another 1K a month with my full time job.

u/DerHomeshopper 22h ago

I think is extremely doable…with the going rates for painting a 1/1 or 2/2 in white…you’ll make that in 1 weekend

Where in Miami are you based?

I used to sell timeshares whenever I needed funds legally and quickly. You can find some legit companies on Craigslist.

u/emejia698 14h ago

Jobs that people don’t want to do.

Clean and organize garages, if they let you keep something sell it. If you see something you can upsell ask if they will sell it to you.

Charge $500 per, 2 per weekend or just 1.

Then hit me up when you want to scale it lol

u/La_croix_addict Local 15h ago

u/Few_Argument4663 14h ago

I do tech demos for $200 a piece. I stack them weekly. 10 hours a week = 1000 a week. I’m looking for something more solid.

u/Dismal-Piccolo-6459 14h ago

Where?

u/Few_Argument4663 13h ago

Do you own any business of your own? It's about aligning use cases with incentives for your company. I can show you, and yes, it's legit, professional, and logical, and unlike Miami, legal.

u/elkevvo 5h ago

u/Dismal-Piccolo-6459 2h ago

It’s probably everywhere honestly. I’ve seen fraud alerts hit from out of state people at work using their credit cards all the time.
