With inflation still raging and a possible recession on the horizon, millions of people are looking for ways to make money fast and pad their incomes. According to a recent QuickBooks survey, 65% of respondents who plan to start a new business in 2023 said they'd continue their day job, and 66% said they wanted to start a business to boost their income amid inflation.
“Today’s economic environment is anything but stable. Having a side hustle not only helps to pad your bank account and bolster financial security, but brings along psychological benefits,” says Christina Curtis, founder of Curtis Leadership Consulting, an executive coaching firm in Denver. “Having more income for that rainy day brings about a stronger sense of courage and willingness to take calculated risks that can advance your career.”
