4. Become a Freelance Writer

Do you have any writing skills? Maybe a college degree that you haven't been able to put to use recently (or at all)? There are so many opportunities to do a little writing on the side. Some people have built whole careers around it. But don't let that scare you off. If you don't have that much time, you can just treat it like a side hustle.

Everyone starts somewhere, so start small. See what you can handle, and then build it if your capacity grows. My friend, Holly (who makes over $200,000 a year writing), gives some awesome tips on how to get going and make money writing.

In fact, she has an online course where she teaches everything she knows. I'm personally taking it and have secured several paid writing gigs! If you need to know how to make money at home AND you love to write, this can be a GREAT option.
