I’m thinking about this. Any words of wisdom from your experience?

Excuse me... Do you have time in your life also for a side job?!

like

I've done a few over the years, currently have two:

1) subscription bacon (brings in up to low 4 digits per month)

2) swimming facility equipment (very little so far since I just started it, should bring in substantial money once it's off the ground)

There's a ton of headroom on the bacon one, I just haven't put in the time or effort yet to really grow it.

like

Yup! It's all gourmet bacon, so it ain't cheap, but customers can sign up to either receive a 3 lb box of 3 varieties of heritage breed pork or wild boar bacon each month, or buy it by the lb.

First 2 years for CSR is about to be over, and I’m looking at the value of the card against the annual fee.

The lounge access at airports were a nice benefit, never got to use it since my client travel was through Amtrak.
