Episode 2782

Today’s question comes from Kelsey in Birmingham, Alabama, who is looking for ways her incarcerated friend can build a side hustle. If you’ve ever wondered about starting a business under unique and challenging circumstances, this episode is for you!
"Hi Chris, I’m Kelsey from Birmingham. I have a question that’s a bit different. I have a friend who is currently incarcerated, and we’ve been discussing ways for him to build a side hustle from prison—potentially something he can do when he’s out. Are there any legal side hustles that prisoners can pursue? What should he be learning about, and how can he best prepare? Any advice or examples would be very helpful. Like I said, I know this is an unusual question, but I’d really be grateful for your ideas. Thanks so much."
