What It's About
From Rhode Island to LA, can a bucket-list road trip fund itself?
Notes from Chris
Episode 3184
There’s something romantic about throwing a duffel in the back seat and pointing the car west. Romantic, yes—cheap, no. Kendra’s route from Rhode Island to Los Angeles will clock roughly 3,000 miles, at least ten tanks of gas, and a stack of motel receipts. She already earns online, but she wants road-specific income—ways to capitalize on the fact that she’ll be passing through dozens of cities and small towns. Good news: the gig economy isn’t tethered to one zip code anymore. Let’s combine portable digital work with geo-dependent micro-hustles and see if we can make this trip cash-neutral. ."I’m gearing up to drive from Rhode Island to Los Angeles next month. It’s a bucket-list trip, but I’d love the journey to pay for itself—or at least offset gas and motels. I already run a couple of small hustles online, but I’m curious what kind of on-the-road gigs or creative money ideas I could tap along the way. Any suggestions for earning while literally crossing the country?"Listen to today's episode to learn more...
