Increasing Income

The best side jobs are ones that match your interests and skills ― while rewarding you handsomely for your effort.

Side Jobs to Make Money

Side jobs are an awesome way earn extra income on top of your main job. As I always teach, the framework for how to make more money and create multiple flows of income is to break your day into three parts, which are:

• 9am – 5pm – Time spent on your main job
• Before 9am and after 5pm – Time for your side job / side hustle
• While you sleep – Time for earning passive money

All three of these periods should have the potential to make you money. [Read more…] about 30 Of The Best Side Jobs For Stacking Quick Cash In 2020

Skill stacking is the art of combining several “normal” skills to create a unique combination of abilities that are extraordinarily valuable.

If your goal is to become wealthy, then increasing your earned (active) income so you have more money to invest is a critical first step. For this reason, skill-stacking is one of the fastest and easiest ways to command more money in the marketplace.

If you aren’t experiencing regular bumps in your income, then chances are that you aren’t properly skill stacking for success. [Read more…] about How to Use Skill Stacking to Make Six-Figures

Want to make more money? Get paid more at your job? And achieve financial freedom?

I get asked this question all the time when I share personal finance tips on Instagram, so here’s the unfiltered truth.

You need to SKILL UP.

Yes, it’s really that simple, and yes, it will require discipline and work to acquire new skills.

Among the highest earners that I know, they are learning machines.

Let’s dive into how you can take on this behavior (and identity) today.

How to Make More Money, Fast

Unfortunately, because our economy is based on supply and demand, the skills you learned in school alongside everyone else means the supply for your skill set is likely going to be too high.

Thus, the question then becomes, is there an extreme market demand for your skill-set?

If not, then I’m sorry to say that you’re just not going to command a lot of money in the marketplace.

Furthermore, market needs will always evolve faster than academic institutions can response.

For example, with COVID-19 sending everyone to work from home, there is suddenly enormous market demand for people who can help with:

• Setting up home streaming studios
• Setting up home audio studios
• Performing video and audio post-production edits
• Content syndication – that is, distributing a single piece of content across numerous distribution channels
• Launching podcasts, including help with hosting, branding, and distribution
• Running paid media, including running a company’s display ads and social media ads
• Delivering remote education services
• Conducting high ticket phone sales – for example, many cars, electronics, and luxuries that require price quotes and customization are now being sold via the phone instead of in person

However, the traditional school systems won’t be able to adjust to these changing market demands for many years―if ever.

For this reason, the people who are prepared to self educate themselves through buying courses, watching YouTube videos, attending conferences and finding mentors are going to be the people who thrive financially.

As mentioned above, the highest earning people I know invest heavily in skill acquisition. 

And remember, an investment can be made in either time or money. It must involve one of these two things or its not a real investment.

How to Get Wealthy

If your goal is to become wealthy, then increasing your earned (active) income so you have more money to invest is a critical first step.

If you don’t know where to start, skill-stacking is one of the fastest and easiest ways to command more money in the marketplace.

Skill stacking is the art of combining several “normal” skills to create a unique combination of abilities that are extraordinarily valuable.

Much like a piece of real estate that gets more valuable with each floor that you add, skills are identical. Your earning potential will increase each time you stack a new skill-set on top of your existing capabilities.

Income vs. Wealth

Having emphasized the importance of skilling up to earn more money, it is critical to clarify that jobs are valuable only because they create income.

They don’t create wealth. Period.

Wealth comes from stacking multiple flows of income, which is why the average millionaire has 7 (or more) flows of income.
