Side hustles promise freedom and extra cash, but the real story lives in the details: taxes, time, wear and tear, and the quiet risk of burnout. From delivery apps and service work to rentals, flips, and reselling, we unpack what “profit” looks like after you count everything that doesn’t show up in the app’s payout screen.
Throughout, we come back to one test: calculate your true hourly earnings after taxes, expenses, and energy. Pick gigs that build skills, fit your schedule, and carry fewer hidden costs. If you’ve been weighing a side hustle—or wondering why your current one feels like a treadmill—this conversation gives you the tools to weight your own pros and cons. If this helped, follow the show, share it with a friend who’s hustling, and leave a review with your best side‑gig tip.
