  Hi guys, So as I have aforementioned, I have been spending some free time to look at different side hustles in an attempt to generate a supplement to my main income.  It has now been a  month since I had started this quest and I can share I have made a total of £564 ($635) this month. It has been extremely lightweight work and I do not feel burnt out or fatigued in the slightest. This is something I will continue to be doing this month and aim to release two more videos; how you can set yourself up in the mentoring space (which has generated 400 this month!) and another on how to write a personal statement which is mostly the area I have been targeting.  if you want to see the full breakdown and my commentary on this do check out my Youtube video below!

Please see the video below for insights into my first experience; online surveys.  My first experience was through online surveys. I had tried out four different providers over the course of 2 and a half hours and converted my experience into a hourly rate. The best one averaged out to £30 a hour!  Please note however that the per hour earnings relates to the time in which I actually did any work. Surveys can be infrequent and you may only get one a day. In short, it will not make you rich or be a substitute for a full time job. What it will do is generate some additional spending money in your free time. So instead of mindlessly scrawling through
