5 ways to earn extra cash at home

Having a side hustle doesn’t mean you have to leave
the house. I’ll tell you how to earn money right at
home in this week’s Money Minute.
Rent out your stuff. If you’ve got an extra room to
spare, set up an Airbnb listing. Some states limit the
number of days renters can rent rooms, so be sure
to check your state laws first. Other than your pad,
you can also rent out your bike on Spinlister or your
car through turo.com.
Work as a virtual assistant. Sites like Upwork.com
make it simple to market yourself as a virtual
assistant. You’ll need good computer skills and know
how to multitask. The best part is you can probably
make your own hours.
Get paid to shop online. If you’re running all your
shopping errands online, why not get paid for it? Sign
up for ebates and get cashback at hundreds of
websites. Swagbucks.com lets you earn points and
redeem them for gift cards or coupons.
Sell old clothing and household goods. You know that
$200 juicer you only used once? Why not sell it and
make some cash back? You can easily sell appliances
on Craigslist, eBay or Amazon.com. Then get creative.
Sell your old wedding dress on
Preownedweddingdresses.com or sell clothes you
never wear through sites like ThredUP. You can even
rent your clothes on rentnotbuy.com.
Become an online tutor. If you’re skilled in a certain
subject area, set up shop at home as a virtual tutor.
You can work online though a company like
Chegg.com or work independently.
