There are different reasons to get a side job. You might be trying to explore a passion and turn it into a career, or you just want or need some extra income. Here are a few popular side jobs to explore.

Food Delivery Driver

There are so many delivery apps people can download on their phones. Take advantage of the market and see if any of your local restaurants use the services. Find the app that is most common in your area and apply. Some establishments have their own. A lot of people like this side job instead of ride sharing because you don’t have strangers coming in to your car. Your earnings will depend on the frequency of deliveries, but there is definitely potential.

Graphic Designer

If you’ve got a passion for graphic design and have created a portfolio of your work, why not start getting paid for it? Local businesses are always on the lookout for graphic designers to create logos, brochures, and web designs. Once you start working for one or two businesses, branch out further. It’s a great gig to fuel your creative side while getting some extra income as well.

Wedding Officiant

Weddings can be a lot of fun, so why not get paid to be there? If you are a people person who doesn’t mind standing in front of a large crowd and speaking, this could be a great side job for you. You can get creative and have fun with the type of ceremony you perform. Start with friends and family as practice, and then post about your services and start making money. Since it’s a one day gig it won’t interfere with your regular job. Each state or county may have different requirements to become an officiant. Do some quick research, spend a little to get ordained, and start getting paid to celebrate love!

Now that you’ve made some extra cash on the side, let that money grow for you! With as little as $100 you can open a money market account, which allows you to earn a higher yield on your funds, while still having flexible availability when the funds are needed. You may also consider growing your money with a Share Certificate, which enables you to invest the funds for a fixed period of time.
