You didn’t say, so I’m assuming that looking for a side gig means that you’re not available during standard business hours. If my assumption is incorrect, you might want to mention it — since more opportunities might be available if your time is flexible.

Law students have tutors? Just asking because I'm a lawyer and if anyone at my law school used a tutor I certainly wasn't aware of it. I'm not saying it isn't a thing, I'm just curious because I've never heard of anyone using tutors in law school. We just used study aids.

LSAT, BAR exams, the occasional class: people, especially people with money, especially people with money who have had tutoring and coaching throughout their lives — get stuck sometimes. Here’s a link to an option:

To add, not everyone gets a tutor because they’re having difficulties. Some people get tutoring because they want to slay.

Yeah but ... law school isn't like calculus or something. The people who slay will slay and those who don't, won't. Tutor or not. It's one exam and that's it and either you are good at writing them or you aren't.

And any skill that can be taught can be improved. If it doesn’t work for OP, then it doesn’t. But I’d hope that someone seeking advice from anonymous strangers would at least consider using the skills that they’ve already marketed successfully
.
PP, Please tell me with a straight face that students who were tutored relentlessly to get them into “good” colleges never ever work with tutors for the LSAT or bar exams, or the occasional class that they don’t have time to study for. (Cough, cough) Are all those ads out therefor test prep really just for show?

I saw an article the other day about someone that bought a dump trailer that they rent to people. They were generating $40k annually in passive income.

Sorry but that takes more than 5-7 hours a week keep better time.

DP, but when I was a new grad during the recession I did LSAT tutoring. There are private companies that will find you students and provide materials. You have to have a fairly high LSAT score to be eligible though.

PP here. Yeah, I actually taught LSAT (and SAT) for Kaplan. But that's different from tutoring law students.

Can you share where exactly I should look??

You are going to need to dig and hustle. It depends on what you know and can write about. Start with your practice area, look from there. You are a lawyer, you should know how to figure stuff like this out. If you want to write about non-legal things, you'll need to start with freelance work to get some clips. There are good books on how to freelance, like The Essential Guide to Freelance Writing -- but there is less and less work out there for the lower level stuff (thanks AI). Still plenty of work out there for the higher level stuff out there -- for example places like Northern VA Mag and even Washingtonian are always needing a good profile, and AI can't do that.

What sites do you find the most sales on reselling? I am doing a closet purge and I wanna get some money for some really good pieces.

I do 80% of my sales on Poshmark. 15% on eBay and the rest on a combo of Depop, Mercari, and Curtsy.

I did sell a few very high-end bags on The RealReal. They took a much bigger cut, but was worth it to me for their service.

Thank you! I appreciate you sharing.

Not OP, but do you work for a company that is local? I have wondered about this, but I'm a fed and never bothered to be licensed in the DMV.

But when are you supposed to be working for your current employer. People like you who try to double dip while doing bad work at both jobs suck.

You don't understand how lawyers work. If OP isn't billing for time, or having to do some administrative thing that they have been asked to do that minute, they aren't "double dipping." It's not like working remote customer service for a business or something where you are just sitting there waiting to have to do something. DP
