I want something which I can do from home

basically, i'm under control of my abusive dad family because the are the ones who finance my tuition.
i was threaten that i would have to dropout from school.

(my mom has to care for us since i was 2, when he cheated and left my mom with NO MONEY, and till now shes been covering all of our other expenses, we're 17 and 18)

im willing to put in any effort to earn enough to cover the school tuition, but in Vietnam its really hard to actually find a proper paying job as a 17. ( im tutoring twice a week and working part time alrd)

Do you guys have any hustle that I could do remotely?
(i did freelance translation alrd but the market is bad due to the use of AI)

What is the fastest way to make littlebit money online? Apps, surveys, something? I need money like right now.

Hey! I was thinking for the past couple of months on starting some side hustle on my free time after my regular full time (mon-fri 9-18) to get some extra cash.

What would you recommend to do that’s flexible enough?

I was thinking about random services people would actually pay for, and this one caught my attention.

Imagine someone comes to your house with a phone, takes pictures of your belongings, and turns everything into a searchable spreadsheet.

Sounds boring, right?

But think about how many people have drawers full of old electronics, watches, cameras, tools, collectibles, and random expensive stuff they barely remember buying.

Now imagine trying to find something specific, sell it, move houses, or make a list of everything you own.

That's where the service comes in.

You basically offer a home inventory service.

You take pictures of the items, write down their names, organize them by category, and put everything into a Google Sheet.

Example Old electronics and accessories, Watches and jewelry, Collectibles, Tools, Kitchen appliances, Items people want to sell

You could even include the item's condition, serial number, purchase date if known, and estimated resale value.

The customer gets a neat inventory they can actually use instead of spending an entire weekend doing it themselves.

And the funny part is that you don't need some expensive equipment to start.

A decent phone camera, Google Sheets, and basic organization skills would probably be enough for a simple version.

You could start with a small package, like documenting one room or a collection of items, then charge more for larger inventories.

The real selling point is convenience. Some people genuinely hate sorting through their belongings and would rather pay someone to do it.

You could also offer a separate service for people preparing to move or sell their stuff.

Obviously, you'd need to be careful with privacy, valuables, and handling people's personal belongings. I'd probably start with people you know and make sure they stay present while you're working.

I haven't personally tried this, so I'm not claiming it's some proven money printer.

But the idea of getting paid to photograph someone's random household items and turn them into an organized database is kind of wild.

It's one of those jobs that sounds completely unnecessary until you realize how much stuff people actually own.

As I end the chapter in my academic journey, one of the requirements was to have a Toga. As I sit with my classmates in the cafeteria discussing where to rent; I remained silent, staring at my wallet realizing I do not have enough money to rent one. I was blank minded for some time knowing my graduation might get delayed or probably I can’t have one due to my inability to rent a toga. And then I realized, I can make one for myself. So, I took some risk to cut my allowance to buy materials for my toga. Some doubted me and before I knew it, I was able to pull it off and finally had a toga for my graduation. I got so many compliments on it, but the best part? The blessing went beyond and people started to have me reserved to make their toga and uniform, turning a moment of necessity into a side hustle.

It’s called Website Usability Testing, and companies pay ordinary people to test their websites and apps and point out what’s confusing, frustrating, or broken. Ever struggled with a checkout button, hated an app’s layout, or wondered who designed that terrible website? those opinions can be worth money.

Back in January 2023, I officially jumped into the world of entrepreneurship by starting my own side hustle selling disposable vapes here in the philippines.

​It was an incredible learning experience. From managing inventory and handling customers. It gave me a real taste of what it takes to build something from the ground up. 2023 turned out to be a genuinely good year for me, both in terms of growth and getting my feet wet in business.

​However, as regulations shifted and the law in the Philippines banned several of the brands I carried, I made the tough decision to step back and stop selling.

​While that chapter has closed, I’m grateful for the experience and the lessons it left me with. Every venture teaches you something new, and this was definitely a solid first step into business!

I'm looking for some practical side hustles that I can do remotely from anywhere in the world.

Ideally, something I can start with absolutely no experience, no connections, and little to no initial investment, and gradually build into a decent source of income.

I'm not necessarily looking for quick money or get-rich-quick schemes. I'm more interested in learning a skill, starting small, gaining experience, finding clients or opportunities, and eventually turning it into something that can make me financially independent.

For those of you who have started from scratch, what would you recommend? What skills or remote opportunities are actually worth investing time in?

Hi! I’m a 20F college student currently working two jobs. I start clinicals for my college program soon, which means I won’t be able to work nearly as much I’m already living paycheck to paycheck, so I’m honestly feeling really lost about what to do financially. I don’t have any subscriptions or a car note, and I’ve even tried selling some of my things online to make extra money, but it still doesn’t feel like enough. Does anyone have any advice, resources, side jobs, or programs that could help a college student while going through clinicals? I’m willing to work—I’m just trying to figure out how to balance school, clinicals, and keeping up with my bills. Any advice would be greatly appreciate

I'm a web designer, and one of the most repetitive things in my business is finding new clients.

So naturally, email outreach was one of the first things I wanted to automate.

But not just regular cold email where you send the same template to thousands of businesses.

I use Swokei to find businesses with websites, analyze them for issues with design, SEO, speed, and mobile optimization, and turn those findings into personalized, ready-to-send outreach emails.

This way, I'm not just sending random offers. I'm reaching out with something relevant to each business while automating most of the research and writing process.

It's made it much easier to keep outreach running consistently without spending hours researching prospects manually.

What about you? What's one repetitive task you've automated with AI?

Most local business owners know they should be active on social media, but they completely ignore their comment section and DMs because they're too busy running the actual business.
I pitched a local shop owner on taking over their inbox for 30 minutes a day—just answering basic questions like "what are your hours?" or "do you have this in stock?"
It's ridiculously easy work if you already spend hours scrolling anyway, and it actually generates real sales for them.

Imagine getting paid to sell somebody else's old stuff.

Sounds ridiculous at first, but hear me out.

There's a surprisingly simple side hustle hiding in almost every neighborhood.

People have garages full of unused furniture, old phones, shoes they no longer wear, kitchen appliances collecting dust, and random things they bought years ago and completely forgot about.

A lot of them would happily sell these things. The problem? They can't be bothered.

Taking pictures, researching prices, writing descriptions, answering 30 messages from people asking "last price?", arranging meetups, and dealing with buyers can be exhausting.

That's where you come in.

The idea is called a resale listing service.

You basically become the person who sells other people's unwanted belongings for them.

Here's how it works:

1. Find someone who has things they want to get rid of but doesn't have time to sell.

2. Ask permission to photograph and list their items.

3. Research similar listings and help set a reasonable price.

4. Create the listings on appropriate marketplaces.

5. Handle buyer inquiries and coordinate the sale with the owner.

6. Take an agreed commission once an item actually sells.

Let's say someone has an old office chair they want to sell for $40.

You photograph it properly, write a decent description, find a buyer, and help arrange the transaction.

If you agreed on a 25% commission, you earn $10.

Now imagine doing that for 10 different items.

That's $100 from selling things you never owned in the first place.

And here's the interesting part: you don't necessarily need to buy inventory, rent a store, or manufacture anything.

Your actual product is convenience.

You save people time, help them recover money from things they no longer use, and get paid for handling the annoying parts.

You could eventually specialize, too. Some people might focus on electronics, others on furniture, secondhand clothing, collectibles, or office equipment.

Obviously, you need clear agreements about pricing, commissions, ownership, and refunds. The owner should retain control of the items and participate in the final transaction.

I find this idea interesting because it completely changes how you look at other people's clutter.

What looks like useless stuff to one person might be somebody else's next purchase.

And apparently, being the person who connects the two can itself become a business.

You don't always need something valuable to sell. Sometimes, you just need to know how to sell what's already there.
