[quote=Anonymous]Setup DH with a Handyman LLC, and much to our surprise he’s pulling down an extra $1000-1500/month for a few hours every few days and the occasional Saturday or Sunday. He’s got basic home repair skills, and the gift of gab. Many of his customers are elderly, widows and homeowners without skills or knowledge. Much of his work involves replacing lightbulbs, lighting fixtures, installing ceiling fans, replacing/ repairing plumbing fixtures and the occasional drywall repair, patch and paint. He knows his limits and turns down more work than he accepts. His side hustle earnings are our play money. He gets to buy himself new tools, and together we get to enjoy vacations and fun. By day, DH is an office worker pulling down a healthy salary, but it’s mindless work to him. His side hustle challenges him, something he enjoys. I’m a RN, working in the local school system juggling child care and home for our children. I work part time with the Red Cross doing blood drives, but that pay doesn’t equate what DH brings home doing simple home repairs for those that can’t or choose not to. Our side hustles work for us, and bring us joy and satisfaction without intruding on our time together. [/quote]
