Looking for ways to make additional income. Yes, I know everyone is looking to do this, but wanted to ask the B & I board what they have had success doing. Rent house, stock trading, side business, etc.?

Driving for Uber = $4-5k/year
You won't lose money, but it does drop significantly if you don't structure it properly.diehard03 said:Quote:

Doesn't this eventually lose money due to maintenance and taxes?
If you own your car outright with no car note, and drive a used economical vehicle like a Corolla/Camry then you will come out ahead if you drive part-time. If you finance a brand new Suburban or Truck with a hefty car note and want to drive for uber full time, then you will lose money or break even.diehard03 said:Quote:

I like this with some extra effort in marketing.Quote:
Side "business": I was selling equine tack that I made out of paracord. I wasn't making much, but it's more of a hobby that paid for itself and a little more. Margins were awesome though.

Another vote for low cost index funds as side hustle. It's literally no work but made 100k in returns YTD.

I would look into selling Tradelines. It is about as easy as it gets for doing next to nothing. The only catch is you need credit cards, the older and the higher the credit limit the better.

news to me sounds very interesting, can you recommend a company to go through with this?

I'd love to hear more about your experience. Just recently started churning credit cards, so I have several accounts that meet the criteria. What's an average payment look like, who do you bank with, ever had a card shut down etc.

so does it matter if you're selling AU's off cards you are using to some degree (obvs not close to the limit), I only hold 3 total Chase/Amex/Citi all pretty well aged with $15K+ limits but only use the Amex and Citi heavily (~1K/month each if that)
is it tougher to do with major bank cards like that and is risk mitigated by having fewer AU's at one time? ie would I be relatively safe having like 3 on my Chase and 1 each on the Amex/Citi?
also have you opened cards exclusively to do this with or are these all ones you had but weren't actively using?
EliteZags said:
thx, and I assume it's a must to cash out all earned rewards for any card before starting this
also do you know if the site you use does identify verification on all their AU's and doesn't accept CPNs, and does it track all activity on your account through the site or do you also track separately on spreadsheets on your own?
