For many women, safety is something they have to think about every day.
You never really know when or where you might feel at risk—whether you’re walking down the street, at work, or even at home. So when TikToker Cassidy started looking for a side hustle, she wanted one that wouldn’t put her in uncomfortable or unsafe situations, like Uber driving or food delivery.
Instead of guessing, she turned to the internet for advice, asking for side hustles that feel safe. And people came through with tons of helpful recommendations!
Check them out below, and if you have more to add, drop them in the comments!

Print on demand! I was able to quit my teaching career from it!

Isn't it sad that so many teachers get side hustles and then just end up leaving education? Friend's husband quit being a maths teacher to driving for Uber - though he was in his 50's and got some sort of retirement out of it. He could have stayed teaching but he'd had his fill.

On Rev, you can transcribe audio/video or do captioning. all online and I think it's like $0.30 a minute or something

I used that service all the time at my last job. AI captions are not great with medical terms.

Air bnb co host!!!! Omg I wish more people would do this 🫶🏼
Regina Holt 10 months ago
All of these people buying up properties to rent them out as Air bnb properties are making it harder for families to buy homes themselves. Families can't afford to buy houses because so many possibly affordable houses are bought up as investments, used as Airbnb "money making" properties.
#54
Create and sell ai generated art, through wallpaper subscriptions, on stock photo sites, or use a print on demand company for physical items like posters. ✨Can be done all from your phone!

It's f****d up that so many people need a side gig just to stay afloat. We're overdue for a revolution
