Yes it is still qualified to be called a side job. I think so because it is an additional employment outside one's full-time job that provides supplemental income. Side jobs are normally completed outside of one’s day job, and therefore may take place during evenings, on weekends, or during vacation breaks. It offers one the flexibility to complete work outside of the traditional hours, provides an outlet to explore passions and as well test ideas. No matter how huge its appreciation and income is, it is still a side job.
As long as you are making it out from your free time, that will be considered a side job. But what is more trending these days are side jobs are more giving us bigger income from our main job. That is not surprising as the new generation these days are already tech savvy wherein most of the side jobs are usually done online. And to add that we can always do our side jobs at the expense of our homes, then that is even more convenient than working outside and stays most of the day. No wonder why most people nowadays leave their current jobs because they find better opportunities to earn more living in side jobs.

It can be said that no one only relies on 1 or 2 main jobs, a farmer can't just farm without knowing how to trade and market his crops, and the more expenses of course make us have to be active to look for other sources of income, sometimes side jobs can produce more than the main job.
What a lovely phrase. Yes, you are correct that farmers' primary job is to grow crops and sell them, but how do they make money on the side? While they are waiting, they could be hired to clean other crops as a side job to supplement their income and provide for their basic needs. Also, there are people who are sticking to their main job because it is more stable than a side job. Yes, some side jobs pay more, but we don't know how long they will last, which is why it is better to stick with the stable one for now.
General opinion is that a side job is one that supports the main income of an individual, often times perceived as something that brings little money to add to what you make from your day job. If Mr X earns better from a side job when compared to the income from his career option, does the side job still qualify to be called a side job?
Definitely Yes, it is only called a side job because you have a main job. Even though job A brings less income over job B, both are still considered a job. It's just that one is your primary job, wherein you fully commit your day time while on the other hand a second job or side job is where you use up your extra time that brings income to your daily. Having a side job both have risk and consequences, but it is still profitable. It will only depends if you are satisfied with your income on your primary job or you want to increase it and your job isn't allowing you to increase it so rather than waiting for a promotion you find a side job that will satisfy your want of increased salary.
income is not a benchmark to consider work as a main or side job. however, many other people have primary jobs that have less income from side jobs. I mean it's a matter of priority. sometimes we build or look for side jobs because we have free time. well, maybe many other people sometimes change their side job into their main job when it has grown, but sometimes the main job is a choice and can be changed. besides, main or side job is not based on salary, it's your choice, and how other people see it.
I agree with you people will decide which job will be the side or the main job based on it nature and characteristics of the job. Some people can still consider their two jobs as a main job this is be because of the love and passion they consider it to be important. all this consideration of which job comes first as main job is based on passion and not really how much it brings . 
Side job become main job is possible but some people will prefer two income, to be earning more from side job, then side job will become the main job. I can not blame people that will later see the former main job as nothing and leave because it is not bringing much profit and side job will become main job.
What is the meaning of career job when there is no much profit, anything that man does that makes him the king is his career job, only children will not think like that. I remember when I was young, I want a career for myself, I got something related to it but no job, I see another job not related to my career, that was the end of my former career ambition.

Some people need to supplement their income by moonlighting (working in the evenings) in order to keep a roof over their heads. They work two jobs to feed their family and educate their children. Their 'day job' income is simply insufficient. Others are entrepreneurial, attempting to establish online or other part-time businesses in order to challenge themselves while also supplementing their income. They work from home in the evenings or on weekends to expand their business. Others prefer a 'passive income,' such as buying an apartment and renting it out on a regular basis. This means that they don't have to do much, it's just a steady source of income for them.
you would really be looking for other ways for you to make money which it is a normal thing that you would really be thinking about having more and that would really be depending on your skills
because not all would really be that having skills or knowledge on doing so but be grateful on what you do have currently.

The global financial status of many countries is at a high rise now. Depending on the main job for a livelihood is not quite enough this day to meet up with daily living expenses.
Someone needs to have a side job to support his main job no matter how big or small it is. Combining both is great. Leaving one for another is not necessarily okay based on life expenses

I think the size of the main job and side job is from the formality of the job, many people work formally with a small salary but have a larger income from business or other sources, of course he thinks that the side salary is a supporter of the main salary so that if it happens The bad thing is that with a side salary, the economy oru financial is not disturbed.
it is very important indeed to have income from other sources because after all we will not be able to continue working for other people,
increasingly expensive needs also become the basis for having additional income

Lol I think a side job still remains a side job regardless of whether you’re making a lot of money from it than your first or main job, since the main job is likely to be taking more of your day time than the side job does. In the day time when you wake up, which of the jobs do you commit most of your day time doing?It’s the first job right? So, it still remains your main job and the other one will be your side job.
Although for some people when they start to notice that they are making more money from their side job, they would quit their first job to put extra focus on their side job and make it the main thing since they are now realizing more gain from it.
Work is work and money is money regardless of where and what you do to earn a living except for fraudulency. If what you so call side job or menial job fetch you good income than any office or white collar job then you are good to go, once you ain't lazy, scamming, or involved in any unethical moral vises, this so called side jobs can gibe you sort of peace of mind, independency and an opportunity to self discovery and if you're the type that can manage and knows how to blend two jobs together in a mutual way that such is not affecting the other then is a welcome idea.
Well said.Side job you call it and makes you more money, the peace of mind is for real. With the rise of prices for most commodities right now especially the oil.
You'll have the peace of mind that you can still keep it up despite the price of everything is rising. Having two jobs main and side, the combined salary you're getting there is what matters on why you're working for both of it.
I don't think it's completely like that because that's how I feel now for example, I'm doing my core job in an office at the moment and my side job is managing a Chanel on youtube as well as some Crypto trading. And this is not always temporary in my opinion because it still has a long chance especially when dealing with the internet world
As long it wont really compromise your main job then i dont see any problems for someone to have multiple job at once because we are all looking for any chance for us to earn more.And to those people who do have knowledge and awareness about crypto existence then they could really engage into something which might able to give that chance for them to earn more.
This isnt for everybody though because this would involved mostly on a specific skill but it doesnt matter though as long you could handle it well then that surely counts.
For Crypto itself, it is true that this is not for everyone and only for those who want to take risks and want to learn who can be here but this is precisely what makes it interesting because it is indirectly a good competition for those who want to compete with smart people because I believe that those who have been in the crypto sphere for a long time have understood how to make profits by continuing to study there
would really be diving into something which you do know that you could really get out some benefits.We do love to find for side jobs for side income which it could add up even more with our main
source of income on which you could really be having more chance on saving up and able to invest if you wanted to but of course this wont be simple because finding one would really be hard.

If you are a Cop then you put up a business in your town which gives you bigger amount of income compare to your salary, then I think it is still consider as a side job. For me, the main reason for having a main job is its security. You are secured to have an income even if your side job fails to do that.
That is right, the main job is just more of a security, every month you’re sure of earning a salary from it. The side job thing is basically just a way to more of assist yourself and make extra income to further assist yourself. Just like you have said, someone who is a cop is definitely going to be working more as a cop and committing more of themselves to being a cop than they would to their side job, because side job would be something that they are doing when they have a free time.But, people who are lucky are able to get a side job that would be making them more money than the salary that they are getting from their main job. It’s not bad to maintain different sources of income, regardless of which one pays the most.
Money dont smell. If side job is not illegal, I have free time and dont feel lazy, then I would definitely do it. Specially if it is near me and I dont have to bother a lot. It is better to have couple of dollars in my pocket, then gain couple of inched in waist while laying dont on sofa. Only lazy people dont want to earn extra.
True, I think most people have an extra income, regardless of what they do. If it makes money why not, as long as it doesn't deviate from the norms and rules. And it's good when we have a side job so that our free time is not wasted (not including our time to rest). And I agree with your opinion, only lazy people don't do anything productive in their free time.I'd say the vast majority of people out there are lucky if they've found a minimum wage job and many are happy to settle for that too. It takes a lot of searching, trial and error, persistence and at least a bit of intelligence to find extra side jobs that pay enough to keep people interested. Perseverance is the major obstacle, there is lots of money out there but it can take a long time to earn it and if you give up early you might never see a good return. Being wise with your money can also mean investing, which grows your capital over time and effectively means you own companies where other people earn money for you. However, there has never been a better time to find jobs - even if it's things like Uber deliveries.

would really be just goes to your medication or something, thats why you should really be wise into your decisions.

To me, any job or work that brings good money and gives you rest of mind is worth doing and I wouldn't classify it as side job. If your side job becomes the major work that gives you reasonable amount of money compared to the real job, then I will not count it as side job cause more effort put into it can bring more income. Side job is expect to bring extra income apart from the main hustle and is the reason we call it side job.
