Episode 897
THEMES & TAKEAWAYS: We’ve just finished week 24 of Season III! This week, we featured episodes about college students who earn millions helping people place ads on their cars, a 7-year-old and her mom who create a better hair barrette, two Aussies who start an unbelieva-bowl food business, and so much more. In other news, I’ve been on the road!! It's week two for the 100 Side Hustles book tour, with a whirlwind trip from the west coast to the east coast and back again. I’ll be doing it one more time this coming week, and then things will be slowing down on that front as I prepare for WDS. But first, two events in Vancouver and Toronto. Head on over to the tour page to see where I'm headed!
WHERE ARE THEY NOW: Today, we have an update from Alexander van Dijl who was featured on the show in Ep. 361. Listen to the Weekly Recap to hear from Alexander! You can also check out his YouTube page, Bitcoin Update!
EPISODES FROM THIS WEEK: Here's what we heard this week on Side Hustle School! Listen to this week's recap for a more comprehensive highlight reel.
  • Ep. 891 - A mom and “kidpreneur” daughter solve the age-old problem of disappearing hair bows by inventing a double-face, double-snap barrette
  • Ep. 892 - Two enterprising students start a business that connects advertisers with car owners. They now pay thousands of drivers up to $500/month, and are on track to earn $5 million in revenue
  • Ep. 893 - A man on a mission goes from unemployed to day job, then from side hustler to millionaire in five years. Putting 80% of his income into investments for an early retirement made total cents
  • Ep. 894 - He’d always been great at building relationships with the right people. But could he really make money from teaching this skill?
  • Ep. 895 - A corporate publicist begins to do freelance work on the side—and after getting laid off, she grows her hustle into a full-time career
  • Ep. 896 - When a scientist and engineer become dissatisfied with their day jobs, they open a healthy, unbelieva-bowl food stall
Inspiration is good; inspiration combined with action is better. Now get back to work! Yours in the revolution, cg-sig-newsletter
