54% of millennial‘s have side hustles. We make on average an extra income of $238 per month. We are the most side hustling generation ever. But can you blame, with the cost of living rising faster than average salaries, we HAVE to get to the money!
I’ve been watching and reading a lot about the factors that have made millennials into such a unique generation. We are (according to research and opinions done by old folk of course) vain, narcissistic, personally branded, entitiled, and broke.
These qualities didnt come out of thin air! There are contributing factors such as lackluster parenting that awards basic participation , poor financial institutions, inheriting a broken economy, student loans, prioius generations sucking income buckets dry, and many more that force us to work twice as hard to make ends continue to meet. We can talk about student loan debts but there’s only so many characters I am willing to type.
Millennials are more educated but we are poor compared to our parents at this age. But you should know that already. I am here to talk about the work ethic and hope that inspires you to get moving. If you are millennial that does not have a side hustle you'e one odd man out. 1 in 2 millenials have a side hustle. Thats half of us working moer than a 9 to 5! , it’s time to put your foot to the ground or your fingers to the keyboard because the monies out here you just have to be creative about it.
Currently, I am a full-time student, full-time employee, I work three share economy jobs (Uber, Lyft, Postmates, etc.). And I have been investing my money all up and down crypto and FIAT currency. There’s so many ways to make money in this world today and thanks to the internet, there is open information to do so.
If you are a millenial who rideshares, works, runs an etsy shop, and has a job that is pretty much for healthcare coverage. YOU ARE NOT ALONE!
It is how we get things done.
