A  side job/business of course it can support our finances, for example I do a side job by being a home marketing and when I'm lucky I can get a big income, even 3 months ago I can sell my house and get a commission equivalent to 2 years if I work in an office.

Underestimate- nothing

To make a living, we must work. In uncertain days like now facing the global economic downturn, a stable job with high income becomes a scarcity. A side job or business seems like more necessary than ever, which can minimize the risks of losing your current job, ending up pennyless. However, a side job/business also takes time and efforts and can never be attained whenever we need it. What did you do or will you do in order to ensure your finanical stability despite all unfavorable circumstances ?
I don't think there is any way to make money if we do not work or own a business, the challenge of getting a high paid job is getting more difficult as stated, and even the government is finding it difficult to create more jobs for people, and one thing has learned recently is don't relent in just one job you can get a job and also have a business alongside, this can improve your finance rather relying on just one source of income which is a very dangerous now that inflation is everywhere with a high standard of living and this is currently going on globally.

Side jobs and doing business are a great way to reduce our chances of not having any money at all, but it will be difficult to divide time and energy between the main job and also side jobs or doing business because side jobs are not a top priority, therefore we have to organize good time if you want to do a side job and if you want to start a business start a business that allows us to control the business anytime and anywhere, besides that financial management is also very important at a time like this we have to start calculating our expenses and income like make priorities

We can use a lot of spare time to earn extra income, I also do at least 3 side jobs and the results are quite good, apart from working in the office I also grow short-lived vegetables or fruits such as watermelons, melons, various vegetables, and also raise chickens even in small quantities.

That will generate good additional profits. If you can continue adding your profits to your initial capital and the cycle will continue, sure deal that your profits will be good in the next few months.

A side income if being saved or being invested will be worthy and will be enough to make decent
savings for your financial needs.

In our society people spend so much time in gossip and backbiting - if they would spend time in real work it would be beneficial for them and for the society.
Smart people really use their time wisely and spend it to make some money.



Time is gold even on those rich people even choosing a clothes they are not wasting time on it like they buy the same clothes so that they dont waste time . Our country also mostly every 3pm for sure a lot of people now going outside and having group discussion and they will take a lot of time sometimes they forgot to cook dinner because of just gossiping other neighbors
Time is money for sure - but many people waste their time so much
Many great people surly do not waste their time in unnecessary dress selection .. the go with simple dress and one color

I also do several side jobs and of course the results can help financially, around my house there are many empty houses that want to be sold, if the house is fully furnished then I will invite the owner to work with me to manage and rent it out daily to monthly, and this can make me earn about 40% of my monthly salary.

almost everyone is currently experiencing bad economic conditions, making good use of time and taking every opportunity or opportunity that exists is part of the solution that needs to be done. like the opportunity that you have done, in my opinion it is very good to stabilize your finances besides you get a monthly salary from what you do.
I hope for the best and from whatever we live to meet the needs of our family and stabilize the economy which has been sinking so far
For me even a side hustle is just a drain on my pocket
I am not sure if I am unlucky or I don't know how to do the business.

it seems like it's impossible to happen, how can you work on the side without income?, I don't think this makes sense. or maybe you don't work but work socially or do charity work, this is normal if you don't have income from what you do

I don't know, but maybe also that he's trying to do a side hustle like investing/trading or putting a business that's not producing any income and instead of profits possible, that he's suffering from losses.

Not a typical side hustle to consider, as we always aiming for a side job that can add some finances
on our daily salary, something that you can earn with providing services which is very big help with
your entire financial needs.

taking advantage of opportunities is something that everyone wants and must be used to the fullest, side jobs are a solution to stabilize the finances of each individual, I think any side job that has existed so far must be taken given the current uncertain or unstable economic conditions. therefore believe in your side job and stay focused on our main job

Yes of course, we must be able to take advantage of opportunities as much as possible. We have to be good at seeing, looking for and taking opportunities to find or create side jobs, but in fact not everyone can be creative and see the many opportunities that exist and only focus on their main job.
I think having financial stability doesn't mean we have to have a main job and a side job. We know as humans we will never have enough if we don't have good financial management and are never grateful.
I think it would be the same if someone had a main job and a side job but they weren't good at managing their expenses. This will cause them to always feel deprived and feel economically unstable.
Good financial management and having a simple lifestyle in my opinion allows someone to achieve stability in their finances.

I agree with this. These days, having only one source of income as your main job is too risky. The firm you work for could go bankrupt at any time, and you'd be left with nothing. And finding a new job takes time - and you need the money now. So it is necessary to have an additional source of income.
The firm going bankrupt would be the least of your worries. It is that their massive hirings during the pandemic should worry many people at most since everything is almost RTO and company now realizes that they kinda overhired people and might consider layoffs at any time especially in tech companies for obvious reasons.

It's better to have another stream of income regardless.

This is one of the reasons why many tech giants out there are doing layoffs lately as far as I know.

If a formal job was not enough to make a living I would do what many people around here do and I would try to start an independent project where I can use my skills as freelancer.

Here in Venezuela, those who have a formal job in the public administration can earn as little as 5$ per month, so they earn the rest of the money they need by purchasing and reselling things from abroad, baking cakes and making food, reparation services, tutoring services, etc.

I would dare to say this is a country that a good percentage of it's economy is kept by the informal businesses. I have myself considered to start something similar, but I have not yet.
That's a tough situation there and I've watched some videos on how people are living in a day to day basis and that's exactly what you've just said. Many of the citizens there have someone in abroad working and sending them remittances to cover their needs because the entire salary of a working man in there is just enough to buy a hotdog sandwich. After hearing that, I thought that it was a joke but it is for real and even if I'm living in a country that isn't good as the others, I can say that situation I'm living is quite fair enough to be said decent on this type of country. And transactions there happening are being done through transfers like the owner of a shop has US bank account and customers can pay the transfers through their because bringing a stock pile of cash is not recommended because it's a lot of papers needed to bring. You're already starting your business and being a freelancer is also another type of business.

Not long ago, our currency became so worthless that people living near the frontier with Colombia started to use the bills to make crafts and other pretty things, so they could sell them for Pesos or USA dollars, here is a brief video about it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f3tpehKSJwA

Also, during the same time in the capital people used bills to decorate trees. I personally remember walking downtown back in 2019 and seeing a bunch of them in a pile, in a corner of the street and on the grass, as if it was simple garbage.  Sad

$5 a month?! You work for a month and your income is only $5? Isn't something fishy about the payment to workers in your country? Maybe some part in your government is corrupt that they pay less to their employees, because if they care to people of your country they wouldn't pay with that amount. You can't even live in a week with just $5 with your essential needs. Hope you didn't typo with that number of income. If that's true it would be better to find opportunities abroad, of course it wouldn't be easy but they pay equally fair than in your country. Don't settle for less if you work hard for a month. If you think business could help you to earn more money then go for it, but don't work yourself out with just $5.

Well, a formal job in the public administration earns only $5 per month ? That's too little to live on. If most people can only survive by having informal job hustles or businesses, that is a real problem for the government, or simply admit it, your government is the problem. However, most people are still trying to grab any working opportunity to make ends meet, which is quite a good thing for your country. I respect all those who work hard to fulfill their responsibilities. Hope you'll find a side business to offer you a sizable profit.  Good luck.

What country is this? It is very low; you can't live on $5 a month even if you have no family. That was really an exploit to the employee; having this kind of salary is not worth it. The government or authority should be taking action on this, but again, for sure, this country is third world or full of corrupt officials in the government, which is why they don't care at all about their employees or other people.

As I mentioned, It is a problem that we have here in Venezuela. You can easily find more information about it if you search on internet news about the minimum wage here. There you have an example:

https://english.elpais.com/international/2023-03-07/venezuelans-struggle-to-survive-on-the-lowest-minimum-wage-in-latin-america.html

The minimum legal salary here is now 175 Bs, which is around 7$. That is the min wage for a month of work, not per hour or per day, per month.
That wage calculation is mostly used for the government and public companies to calculate the wage of everyone working for them, an experienced worker usually gets more than the min wage, but it does not matter anyways, since the base is too low, so they get 10-15$ monthly for having a better position.

Added to that, our currency is so unstable that all the goods and services here are tagged in USD, not in local currency.
So a hamburger can cost 10$, that would be two months of work if you work for the government and do not have another job which pays better.

If we have a lot of free time then use it for productive things, we must understand that life today has a lot of unexpected costs, especially if we have a family of children and others, using time to find a side job or business is something we must do Unfortunately, many people use their free time for their own pleasure, such as wasting money, or exaggerating hobbies

Yes ofcause, side job improves your financial stability.
Having a stable well pay job will give you financial freedom but having a side business improves your financial stability.
One source of income is not really good because anything can happen.
So having a side business òr job that generate income for you will help you in many ways financially. It doesnt neccessary mean that without side job or business that you will not be ok, it just means that it will increase your financial stability.
