Finding a side hustle to help bring in some extra cash is easier than ever.
There are virtually no barriers for those serious about using side hustles to bring in some cash.
Easy Ways to Make Extra Cash
Here are some things you can do online to make some extra money each month.
1. Get Paid for Your Opinion
Many companies will pay people to fill out surveys and/or surf the web. However, there are good survey companies and not-so-good survey companies.
My favorite is Survey Junkie as they will pay you cash instantly via Paypal. They have over 6,000,000 members and an A+ rating with BBB.
Keep in mind that while taking surveys won’t make you rich, it can be a decent way to get income on the side.
2. Get Paid To Do Tasks
Kashkick is a GPT (get-paid-to) app that pays you for completing various tasks, most of which you may be already doing anyway.
For instance, Kashkick will pay you for finding deals. Or for surfing the web. You also get paid for surveys you take, which is the primary method you earn through.
Once you’ve reached the minimum threshold for cashing out ($10 as of this writing), you can request payment.
Payments are made directly to your PayPal account. There are no other options for payout.
Most PayPal payments finish processing in 1 to 3 business days.
3. Search the Internet
Did you know that there are companies out there that will pay you for searching the web?
Check out Swagbucks which is one of the most reputable companies when it comes to making money searching the internet. They will also pay you to play games, watch videos and more.

4. Get Paid to Watch Videos
I know this sounds too good to be true, but InboxDollars will actually pay you to watch videos. Not only that, they will pay you to download and play games as well.
I downloaded Final Fantasy XV and got paid $3.75 for just playing the game. Right now they offer a $5 cash bonus for just signing up.
5. Test Products
Ipsos I-Say is not only a survey site but they have product testing opportunities as well.
They pay rewards in gift cards as well as cash via Paypal.
Make sure you complete your profile as much as possible so that they can match you with products to test that are relevant to you.
6. Make Money Playing Solitaire

It is available to download for free on iOS and on Android.

What we love about the game powered by Skillz is that it pairs you with other players that match your skill. This keeps it fair and engaged.
There are two ways to play; Practice League and Pro League.
Practice is straight up practice and pays out with Z Coins. Pro allows you to play with real cash and even play in tournaments for people 17 years and older.
To cash out, simply do so with your Paypal account.

Many people will hire you to walk their dog, but Rover makes it easier to find people in need of a dog walker. You can also post flyers or hand out business cards in order to find dog walking customers.
9. Sell your Old Jewelry
Maybe you dont need a side hustle, but just some quick cash. Do you have jewelry that you no longer wear? Why not sell it for cash?
Check out Worthy which is an online jewelry auction site that exists to bring fine jewelry sellers and buyers together. They have a 4.8 out of 5 score on Trustpilot which is amazing considering they have of 2,100 reviews.
10. Online Gigs
Sites like FlexJobs are perfect if you like to do online jobs. The site offers thousands of flexible jobs and the pay is pretty competitive.

Is there away for a disabled individual to get an emergency cash grant to save their parents home from being repossessed?
I don’t know about a grant, but there are some side hustle ideas on our site to help you make more money that could help. But I must also ask if it would be possible to sell it, pay the debt, and then rent someplace cheaper? Or, what about talking to the bank to see if they would extend the mortgage?
Other possibilities include selling things they aren’t using or could do without to help pay past due bills or taking on odd jobs.
