With family expenses rising and everything getting more expensive, I’m starting to explore part-time side gigs or job stacking (nothing that would compete with my current role). Would love any advice, ideas, or experiences others are willing to share. What have you seen work well (or not work at all) in today’s market?

Depends on what you want to do I got into insurance because you’re a 1099 with only commission no salary no insurance no retirement but the money is awesome and they let you advance and build an office quick realistically it’s all based on what lifestyle you want I wanted to be addicted to work so I found a lifestyle that fit that if you want time with your kids work at Costco part time or a park district seasonal it’s like almost 25-30 an hour it’ll meet your needs

I think I have work trauma not sure how it’s clouding my ability to make decisions. I’ve had unstable work after being laid off from a company 3 years ago. I thought I worked out a plan to get to a stable place but my job is proving to be unstable yet again. I secured a FT role at another company but because it’s a lot less money I’m unsure because I feel very cynical about companies in general. I assume it’ll be just like all the rest but now I’ll just be making less and could get laid off.
