14. Investor
There’s a valid argument to
be made as to whether
investing is actually a side hustle, but there’s no question
that
investing can make you serious money in addition to
your main job
.
And one of the surveys found that
45% of respondents
identify themselves as investors on the side
. This aligns with
the fact that a lot of people use a side
hustle not just to
make extra spending money, but to set themselves up for
the future.
If you’re keen to start investing but the whole thing just
seems overwhelming, why
not sign up for
Acorns
?
It’s a micro-investing app that invests your spare change.
So let’s say you buy a coffee for $3.40. This is rounded up,
with the extra $0.60 put into a separate account for you.
Then, once that account reaches $5, the money is moved
into an investment account.
It’s perfect for people who think they never have enough
money left over at the end of
the month to focus on their
financial goals, as
it saves that money for you without you
even realizing
.
