It is by no means easy, but thrifting has helped me pay the bills. I've made it a habit to stop at thrift stores on my way home from work to see if there is anything I can flip and again, it's not wild money, but an extra 100-200 a month. I resell mostly on Facebook Marketplace.

This may sound silly but donating plasma is smart! You do a good thing for society AND they pay you. And it’s a nice way to end a rough day- sitting in a chair in a lovely quiet environment for an hour. Basically, easy money!

I know ppl who are into marketplace sales. One colleague of mine retired young during the pandemic. She has one adopted child a girl who has health issues so… anyway she needed extra money- she made some decent money doing marketplace sales to boost her income.

Would you want to tutor (virtually or in your local library)?

Ebay. It helps to have knowledge of a certain niche, or at least a willingness to learn, because that will help you find the deals that you can resell for a big profit.
