Need to make more money

[humanbeansiskillingeachother]

I work part time & it's not making ends meet. I could potentially increase my hours but with wraparound child care it won't be significant for the extra hours. Anyone got any side hustle suggestions? Apart from matched betting! Am already selling my stuff.

I would just increase my hours at work I think...you'll get some extra money after childcare costs and not have to do any "extra" thinking/organising like you would with a side hustle.

Are you paying tax/NI/pension contributions atm? The extra hours might help with that which will be good in the long run.

Yeah I suppose it does make sense. Just feel frustrated at work with the low pay and high expectations but not much I can do about that in the short term.

Can you reduce your outgoings rather than trying to make money ?

@KangarooKenny definitely working on that! I just keep massively underestimating how much things cost. Try and have a no spend day but then ice creams at the park etc. I want to save but also want a bit of normality. Realised how much I had been saying 'I don't have any money right now!' when my 9 year old said 'maybe you should get a second job until you get back on your feet' 😕
