Temp job that can pay decently?

Anything considered a "hustle" and not necessarily a CENTS-based Fastlane

Hi all,

First post in this forum, not sure if this is going to be a stupid question..

I have started a business a few months back, but had to pay off quite a bit of bills recently due to some personal issues at home. Not planning to give up on my dreams and business, but reality hit me recently that I am probably going to run out of money in 1-2 months time.. The stress started to kick in quite badly recently. I can sacrifice a lot of stuff and suffer some hardships, but I am worried about my wife.

I was thinking that I should probably get a temp job in the meantime to get some cashflow first.. Does anyone has an idea of a tough, physical job that can pay the bills temporarily? I used to work in a corporate office, but it sucked a lot of time from me and I didn't have any excess time for my business.. Not thinking along the lines of Uber etc, as it would require me to rent a car which will incur more fixed costs..

Appreciate any advice or suggestions. Thanks in advance

The more remote the job the higher demand and pay you can expect.
Think working on a ship in the alaskan waters or somewhere in the middle of the north dakota oil fields. Granted some of those jobs require certifications, and some might be affected by modern day economic standings.

It is very country/location specific.

In my place grab food is booming. You can literally buy a cheap bicycle, switch on the app and take orders.

I pay $17 up to $21 an hour to mow lawns. Anyone in washington state need a job???
Shoot anyone in Washington who are still on MJ’s first step to financial freedom (specialized labor ) SHOULD take this offer! That’s as much as I got paid as a supervisor for a high-end apparel store.

Uber's a tough physical job?
I bet you think Manual Labor is a Mexican holiday.
You youngsters....
Haha understand it is mostly a young person thing, BUT let’s rephrase as young & LAZY. Gives the rest of us hungry youngsters a bad image.
