I’d love to hear how regular people are earning an extra $2–3K/month on the side.

Shef.com. You can start cooking a dish or so for people and they pick it up from you. Check it out. I don't know how much people make. Similarly, in my immigrant community, there are housewives that will cook dishes for parties, that you can order and pay for. The going rate could be any thing from $70-$120 for a big aluminium foil tray worth of food. Usually word-of-mouth.

House cleaning on the weekends. If you do even 2 homes on the weekend - you will make around $400 a week. $1600 a month.

You can become a tutor at home or through a company like C2. The best part is that you teach after work for a couple of hours.

Get training so that you can become a weekend hospice or elder care worker.

Do some kind of childcare + fun craft activity for kids for a couple hours during the week through the county recreation dept.

Dog walking. Baby sitting. Substitute teacher.

You can rent out your basement. OR take in a lodger, boarder or roomer for just a room in your house - (only if you know them well) - and provide room and/or board.

These are all great idea. Now OP, stop asking more questions, and pick one of those above and get to work. Avoid analysis by paralysis.

You gotta hustle to make it.

Find a market to teach a skill you have to others.

Find clients who will pay to use the skills you have.

That's the basics! But it's really hard to work a full-time job and also a side job. I get tired and my bookkeeping side job is only 4 hours a week.

I have been doing this for 20 years. I freelance on the side.
