What It's About
Today's listener has a big question about global trends.
Notes from Chris
Episode 1815
Welcome to a new week! A question we’ve never considered before: is side hustling dependent on the broader economy? How might this affect your plans and ideas? If you have an existing side hustle, how much (if at all) do you need to pay attention to what’s happening in the economy?"Hello there Chris, this is Angela and I’ve been listening to the show since episode one. Over the past two years, the economy has been crazy. The stock market has reached new heights, everyone is quitting their job, and all while we're seeing huge supply chain problems around the world. I thought the pandemic was going to take us into a huge recession—but clearly I was wrong. You've talked about trends a few times. I'm wondering more about the big picture: how much of side hustling is dependent on the broader economy? Do people start taking on extra projects when they're worried about cash flow or losing their jobs? Is this a good time or a bad time to take a small or medium-sized risk? Thanks and hoping you’ll continue Side Hustle School next year."Listen to today's episode to learn more...
