Today’s sponsors are here to help bring value to your life.

Bookk.me, Haggle, Thinkific,

Jen “Odd” Glantz here! It’s hot outside today and that’s why I’m hiding indoors, on the couch, searching for interesting ways for you to make some extra cash.

The summer months are expensive. It’s the time of year when people vacation, head to a ton of weddings, or just find themselves spending less time inside their apartments (which leads to them spending more cash money).

If you’re in need of new sources of income or you’re someone who wants to get rid of your current job (once you’ve secured income from something else), I put together a curated list of gigs that you might want to try out this summer.
