You can do as man jobs as you want and can call everything as a job and what differs or it does make any difference to call something as side job?

There is a general theory is there if you want to get financially successful then you need to have 6 sources of income which may comes from different sectors but the real matter is make money and more money...
6 jobs? Grin that's too hard to find! Plus the time one will spend on doing jobs simply isn't worth it, if one is not capable of having time to spend their earned money, it's ot no benefit at all, sure, his family will enjoy the money but not he Grin plus, I guess, money is there to give us freedom not to bind us and restrict our lives and too many jobs is like a cage!
I would never be able to run 6 jobs at the same time but we need to consider the hours as well. There are times when I work 12 hours a day because I have a regular job and I also try to build another project with friends, it was the case last year for example, now I do 14-15 hours between my job and the hospital works for someone I really care about, so it is possible to be always busy. If 6 jobs all require between 2 hours or 3 hours per day, then you would be able to do that.

I know people who are community managers on 10-15 different telegram groups, that requires maybe 10 hours a day at most and they could hire others to delete spams as well so they are making literally thousands of dollars per week just from being online on telegram and even hire someone else to do their job so they do not have to work too much neither. It is definitely a smart move.

Side job and main job, a job is anything that can pay the bills and make you save some leftover if you classify the main job into professionalism and a side job as a vocational hustle the both mean different thing while the former has to deal with your motivation the later can just be for the monetary gains so the too are different in different situation and individuality.
Very situational and would really be depending on someones capacity because not all would really be ending up on the same thing on what kind of side jobs they would really be ending up.
Whether its a good one or not but as said that as long it could give out that benefit on paying up bills and have some savings or simply you could sustain yourself to survive then that
would really be enough.

It might differ on each person but the main purpose would really be just the same.It doesnt matter on how you do treat those whether its a main job or side
job yet they do have that same specific purpose.

The end point here is both are giving advantages and that is we are making an income from them. However, from my own understanding is that a main job usually takes most of your time like having an 8 hour day job. Even if we say the income you made is smaller than your side jobs, it will always remain as your main job as long as its getting the most of your time. And for side jobs, its always the things your doing aside from your main job that also adds income from your main job income.

Side jobs from the word itself is already a self explanatory, I mean I am also one of the people who loves to have my side jobs inline with my main job because I am aiming to have a streamline income because of the hardships of life today. I can say that the quality of life today aiming for a comfortable way of life cannot be achieve by just having a single job or main job. So for me I would rather have side jobs so that my other expenses can be covered up properly even if fhe side jobs are being a part time trader of crypto.

Side jobs is an indicator that you're main work isn't providing you enough money or that you're scared to take a leap on that side job even though it's your passion. Side job is a good way to make money, even though it might sound like I am against it, I highly respect the people who do this although I don't really like the idea that we have to rely on more jobs just to get by.
Side job is not just the job of another office along with your first office or place of work in physical but it can be any other source of income which you get. Suppose if you have your day job and after that you come home and do other marketing or vloging and earning money with that then you are dong side job so I do not think that anyone will not like side job.
It is also a support of someone in heir life and it is also the extra earning of a person in order to save for future or to buy any dream of their life.
Doesnt matter on what category would it be as long it could give out that kind of opportunity to make money or income then that what matter most because not all would really be having that
chance on having one neither some do have lack of skills or something which couldnt really be able to put up some investment and thats why better be thankful on whatever
on things you've been dealing.Doesnt matter if its labeled to be your main job or side job and as long it could give out some source of income then thats what counts.

You are very correct, no matter how much the side job pays as far as its not your carrier or ur dream job it still remains your side jobs, there are some side Jobs that pays higher but they are illegal....
  In my own opinion side jobs are necessary but not mandatory!

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?


Good topic and question you've got here, in my own opinion, it's very possible that side job can become main job (which is also known as day job) if the side job happens to bring in more money than the day job does, for example, some one already mentioned youtubers, I have friends who take streaming on YouTube as their day job and are earning a good living out of it, this set of people had what they were doing before either they found YouTube or someone introduced them to it.
Also myself as an example, I was into public transportation as my day job, along the line, I discovered and got into crypto, later on, crypto started paying me even more than I was earning in my transportation business, I had to later on take crypto trading and investing as my day job and make my transportation business a side job, and I plan to quit the transportation business soon though as I have plans of taking my crypto journey further to the next level.

A side job is still considered as a side job even if it is paying more than the day job.
A day job gives you a stable income on regular basis and that makes it more important than a side job as it is a more secure income.
A side job may not be relatively stable and requires less amount of time of work than the day job.
True. A side job usually requires less time of work and the income is unstable. But the worth of these jobs (either main or side job) are equal for me. Because its a source of income and that we should give importance. Nowadays many people are now committed to two jobs and its understandable knowing how hard the life is (inflation in everything) and everyone needs to strive.

Yes ofcourse, jobs are important because those are the ones that give us our bread and butter to survive our daily needs.
Side jobs are equally important as day jobs because it fulfills our side expenses and also sometimes help us save an extra buck.
It is the sole reason why we opt to do a side job at first place and otherwise we wouldn't be doing it at all.

Side jobs, just because you earn more from there, can be considered as your primary job. The salary has nothing to do with me but rather I called as a profession.

And actually, that should not be a question in the first place because it's all end up on our own preference.

Regardless of the salary, you are the only one who can differentiate the classification of the jobs you are currently working on. Smiley

I'll be honest, I have no idea what OP means by a side job or at what threshold said side job becomes the main job.
If I look from the OP's other thread then I think the side job he's referring to is a signature campaign that pays participants weekly. But maybe I could still be wrong if that's not what he meant.

For other side businesses it might be good to do as long as it doesn't violate government rules and interfere with main work. But if signature campaign is what the OP meant then I really have to say it's not a side job despite the fact it can help participants to earn extra. It would make more sense for the OP to think a "campaign manager" campaign operator is one type of side job as compared to a signature campaign participant in my opinion.

I'll be honest, I have no idea what OP means by a side job or at what threshold said side job becomes the main job.  I've often heard talk of "side hustles" which are usually schemes or off-the-books work that doesn't get reported to the tax man.  If that's what OP is talking about, I'd say that if your side hustle is making you more money than your regular job, there's probably something illegal going on (like drug dealing, for instance).
A kind of work that does not take much time that someone is doing that is not his main job is what OP is referring to as side job, side job may not be the right words for it. Example are people going for work from 8am to 4pm but having another means of getting income like online works that will not take much of their time daily. Some people can realized that they are getting more income from the work that is not taking time than a job which requires daily bank hours.

So it means that you work 8 hours in the morning and then again you work for 4 -5 hours in the evening/night. Though you may get extra income and money but it does come at a cost of your comfort. You can't give time to your loved ones and maybe lose health because of less sleep. I would better find some passive investment opportunities rather than engage in working for 12-14 hours a day.

Even a individual need of 1000$ per month for the luxurious life and 500$ for the normal life.
This will depend from country to country, in country like the United States and European countries, $1000 is not enogh for luxurious life, probably it can be enogh in some African and Asian countries.
Pfft.  $1000/month in the US is living in poverty--seriously, even if you don't have a family to support, and especially when inflation is creeping up at around 7% annually.

But as long as your side business isn't hurting anyone, who am I to say that a person shouldn't try to supplement their income--especially if that income is insufficient to begin with.  The government has stacked the chips so hard against the average person that I'm not one to judge harshly when it comes to these sorts of things.  Ya know?

To me there is nothing like a side job or a main job once you can end an income from any job be it official or unofficial it becomes the main source, once you put in your time and it pays the bills you are on it for some time it becomes your job.
Any job that is bringing you a good income either weekly or monthly is your job. Many unemployment in the country  found a good job in cryptocurrency trading that is giving them a huge amount of money monthly which is really helping them to live well in the society. Some youths engaged themselves in crypto trading during the pandemic that made them to achieved a good job that is giving them income monthly to feed their family and to pay other families bills in the community.

If it brings money it's a job! The only difference between main and side jobs is how much you are involved in and how much you earn from them! The main job is taking more time/energy and should bring more money at the end of the month, but we saw people who start earning more from the side job, where they spent less time/energy... it's natural for them to replace the main job with the one that will bring more money!
I agree that there's a lot of unemployment around the world, and many people earn very low on many jobs, so the only way to survive is to do more jobs! So if someone is capable of doing more things at once should try it!

Well where I live even if we are earning more from a side job from our main career it is still called a side job. May be because in side job income is not fixed that we will earn that much..some time we earn more some time less also in side job sometimes it is not guaranteed how long will it continue but in main job there is a bit of surety that it is for long term and our pay will increase with time.

Agreed, and it is not guaranteed that it will continue for a longer period of time, for example, I currently have a main job and several side jobs, the earnings from which are not particularly substantial but which are extremely beneficial to us; however, the problem is that it could disappear at any time because it is not particularly stable, as is the case with the main job. When it comes to your primary job, you should expect it to last for several more years; side jobs, on the other hand, are usually only temporary, though some people turn their side jobs into full-time jobs if they see that it has potential.

That is the type of thing that my friends are all doing and I do not understand. They have their main job that makes them money, and they see that as their job. I would say that have your own job that you want to do in the world, you could have a "main job" that gives you money, but then for the rest of your hours, focus on doing what you want to do. Let that consume every single hour of your life.

I work nearly 12-13 hours a day, all for the "main" job that I have because I found the job that I love the most, it is the most magnificent job for me, it is content writing and many people may not like it and hate it but the reality is that I still love it and it is perfect for me.

If you can't let your favourite thing in the world consume every single minute you have, then you are not going to turn that into your main job and will hate your whatever main job you have that brings only income and no fun for the rest of your life.

First of all, big respect for being a kind of person that chases after what he really wants. Second, although I understand your point and your passion about it, you also must know that not all people are brave enough to take the leap of faith. Specially for the ones that are really financially challenged and have a family to support and take care of. Whether it is right or wrong to risk it despite having responsibilities or not is something that is still up for debate or is something that the person who is in the same situation can judge. Either way, everyone has different lives to live along with their varying beliefs that may depend entirely on environmental influences, tradition or some circumstances and I as a person respect them all.
