Finding ways to increase your income are great, any extra money helps to bring about financial freedom, or just cover some bills. Making money can be difficult, time consuming, and tedious at times. It doesn’t have to be that way though. I’m going to share with you a few of the most fun ways I add a little extra money to my pocket.

Product Testing

By far the most fun thing I do is product testing. I do my tests with Beta Club because they primarily help small businesses get the valuable consumer feedback that they need to make informed decisions. I enjoy being a part of that process and adding value to those businesses.

Not only that, but I get to try a variety of really interesting products for free and then earn $1.50-$250 per test on top of that. I’ve tested everything from supplements to weighted blankets, kids toys, massage guns, to mosquito nets. If that sounds like something you would enjoy you can sign up and get started here!

Giving Feedback

We can all be a bit judgmental at times, so why not get paid for it? SliceThePie is a platform and app that connects you with music, video, and product creators. In exchange for your feedback and opinion on the newest music or products you get cash.

The better your rating as a reviewer the more money you earn per review, so you do need to take it seriously. But on average you typically get about $0.10–0.25 per review and takes about 3–5 minutes if you’re taking your time. If this sounds like you’re kind of thing, you can get started here.

Get Paid to Try Something New

If you’re reading this, then you have probably looked around for ways to make money. You’ve likely found that learning a new skill can lead to a lucrative side hustle as well.

Whether you’re looking to learn a new skill, invest the money you have, or find a new side hustle Purpose can get you some extra cash along the way.

This is a platform with tons of courses, apps, deals, and side hustles/gigs for you to connect with, all in one place. They vet each one and give you a list of pro’s and con’s to help you understand before you sign up for any of these deals.

When you do sign up, purpose gets a referral bonus and splits that with you. So lets say you sign up for a coding course or a new side gig through the app. Purpose then pays you half of the referral they get for using their link!

Full disclosure here, I do get a bit of bonus myself if you sign up using my link and using referral code 391897.

Make Money Make Money

Finally, the most fun way to earn extra income is to make your money make money. Doing nothing at all while your income grows is no longer something only the rich can achieve. There are investment apps like Robinhood, Sofi, Webull, Public, and probably a million more.

I am a firm believer that if you can invest, you should. That’s just my personal views, but the feeling when I get a dividend payment from my stock or a rent payment from Landa is just exhilarating

Whatever you do, just make sure you enjoy doing it. Life is about more than just grinding, but its awesome when you can grind and have fun at the same time.

I've dealt with depression for a good portion of my life. I've tried a lot of things to help, but the one that seems to have the greatest long term impact is writing. I'm hoping some of my work can somehow help someone else too.
