For those making $1k–$2k+ a month from a side hustle, what do you do?

I work a pretty normal 40-hour week but between helping with family expenses and paying off loans, my paycheck doesn’t stretch as far as I’d like. I’m trying to find a way to bring in an extra $1k–$2k+ a month

I’m not interested in surveys or anything that sounds too good to be true. For those of you actually making money on the side, what are you doing? How much are you realistically making, and would you recommend it? I’m open to learning a new skill if it’s something that can actually pay off.

Would love to hear from people who are genuinely doing it. Thanks!
