I can’t think of a time in my adult life when I haven’t been fully immersed in a full-time job or career, while also making income on the side. My first side hustle was a part-time job at the local mall where I held my full-time day job. She offered me a few hours a week, and I accepted on the spot.

In the personal finance world, there’s a lot of discussion regarding “side hustles”, also known as extra income opportunities, side jobs, survival jobs, etc. For instance, if you were asked to babysit for two hours, but you had to commute an hour each way, would it be worth four hours of your time for only two hours of pay?

Our mom stayed home to raise us kids; she went to work part-time in the local school system after both my brother and I were in school. My dad was a blue-collar worker – a machine operator on the railroad who sometimes got laid off for periods of time in the winter. Alan doesn’t share that regret.

I read Millionaire Women Next Door around the same time that I became a mother and left the full-time work force to stay at home with our new baby. Even though I was helping my husband from home part-time with his business, I still felt like I wasn’t contributing to our finances and that drove me crazy.

I work full time in IT and my wife works part time in retail. After trying to extend credit to finance the vacation and we were denied (best thing to ever happen to us) we realized we made too much money to be living like this and something had to change. What are your hobbies? . We live in New York.

Myth: Geothermal heat pumps only work in rural areas where there is lots of land to put the collector system. Myth: Geothermal heat pumps don’t work. They degrade over time and they don’t save you that much money. Always make sure to work with an experienced installer. What’s not to like?
