I'm good at making music and graphic design, which is what I do aside from working retail. I suck at marketing and promoting though, so I don't really make that much money from it at this point. :francis:

You should search the net/youtube for things on marketing your skills and networking with others. I'm sure there are courses on coursera/edx (free) and udemy(paid). Jump on fiverr and all that stuff. People who have less skills than you are making more money than you because they have taken the knowledge and applied it diligently.

If you make music, find your niche ie. music producers who are putting out drumkits and proposition them to design their next release covers. Build a portfolio and when you have one going use it proposition others to pay for designs.

Post your services on college group facebooks

Depending on your graphic design acumen, do freelance work.

However, be prepared to GRIND because you only get paid when you do work.

less than a $100 for the license, he did have to take a class and a test though, but nothing to serious, but it really depends state to state

he got clients through work, friends and facebook

thats a very smart side hustle since it cost next to nothing to start up. :salute:

Factory jobs but you need a plug 99/100 so if you kno a nikka workin at any type of steel mill, factory, or any thing in manufacturing have them get you in.

A lot of em don't even have online apps so you just have to go to the industrial area in ya city, go to different factories, ask for apps, and sit there and fill em out. Some times you get a hit

When they ask what skills you have exaggerate the hell out it

some of these cats at my job bankin 2400+ take home and the work isn't bad unless you a :wrist: that can do a little hard work in the elements here and there

also railroad jobs. my wife's cousin who is our tenant works for the railroad as a conductor I believe in the freight yards. I have no idea how he got this job, but he had been trying to get this job for years. dude was a lifelong weed smoker, and gave it up cuz ANY injury at work would have him subject to a drug test immediately. I think he makes around $25/hr plus OT as well if he can get it (its based on seniority).

true story. they are paid a nice hourly wage, I believe up to 20 or so an hour and make commission on top of that. you could also look into being a field technician for them. they will hire almost anyone to be a directv contractor. those guys sometimes make 100k installing satellites on people's home. I'm not joking. the contractors are paid by the job and since at&t bought directv they are getting so much work they can't keep up.
I used to work in telecommunications, and I always tell young brothas that don't want to go to college to look into getting a job in the cable industry while they get a trade at a technical college.

I used to be a cable guy and at 21, I made a little over 40k my first year and I bought my first house at 22. In my last year I busted down 70 racks with ot.
