Chapters
One thing I learned recently was renting out your car on a car sharing app. Well, I did— I had no idea this was even a thing, but one of my friends kind of pointed it out. Like, I was trying to find a ute to go and move some stuff. I guess I'm going to come pick up some things and move some things with a ute. Like, you can actually— someone had a ute and I could just go hire the ute and I just go pick it up and then drop it back off again. It was incredible. I thought this was— looked like a dream come true. How amazing is that? Like, how good is that? That's not a bad way to do it if you've got a car that's sitting at home on a regular basis. Now, on the back of that, some of you may like to go Uber driving. My older brother does some Uber driving to kind of build some other cash flow as well, right? And so he can kind of clock in and clock out exactly when he wants. He can fit it around his family. Cool, happy days. If that works for you, great way to earn some other things. I love the idea of turning your hobby, something you love to do, and making profit out of it.
