How much do you charge and how many dogs do you walk in a typical day? I've been doing some dog walking, but haven't made anywhere near that much.


$20/visit x 4 dogs a day 5 days a week and you could easily make $1,100.

Sounds like you don't have enough clients and/or don't do enough walks.

Thank you, that makes sense. I balance dog walking with a full time job and automatically take out 30% of everything I make for taxes so it seems like I make so little.

Do you resell stuff that other people have given away for free? If so, you are loathsome.


I don't take things for free from anyone directly and then turn around and sell it. I primarily shop at yard sales and thrift stores for both my family and for resale. I also sell things that we own that we no longer want like old toys and clothes that my kids outgrow. If a friend or neighbor passes something along to me for free, I pass it along for free to the next person when we're done with it. I have, however, found things on the curb on trash day that I've turned around and sold. I don't have a problem with that.


Nothing wrong with either.

Even if she did, there's nothing loathsome about that. When you give something for free, you don't put restrictions on its use. THAT would be loathsome.


Exactly. Not loathsome at all. Extremely smart.

Pick up extra shifts. I work ca 25 hours at nights and weekends and stay home with our toddler day time. We could also rent out our indoorb parking spot since there's plenty of street parking at all time.

Talking about online money making, I would define these options:
Different surveys can't bring much money, but that's rather stable I think
Online casinos and gambling sites are not bad, just choose secure ones, preferably with good bonuses for beginners.
Trading must be the most profitable, but one gotta be rather experienced and smart to make money on it instead of losing.

Not really, I have a fixed salary. I do get paid out for unused vacation time over a certain cap, so I suppose I could "earn" more money by never using my vacation. And I could pick up a side job like waiting tables or something, but there really aren't any "side" options in my career field.

+1 We just made sure our mortgage was what we felt we could afford, not what the bank said we could afford. We saved before having children to be able to have a jump start on college and retirement and have the emergency fund. We were in our early to mid thirties when we married. We budget for unexpected expenses- there is always something every year, we just don't know what it will be, but we know it is around 5%-10% of our budget.

Not allowed for me, my job doesn't allow moonlighting and salary is fixed. DW can pick up extra shifts.
