You could probably host a great YouTube channel explaining metrology in laymen’s terms, making it fun and interesting for kids or adults who are interested in the subject. Or, you could blog about it or even write an eBook maybe? Just a suggestion.

One thing that I have done for a number of years that’s not on this list that is flexible, remote capable, and lucrative [that you might be great at] is foreign translation. The more difficult the language and the more technical the writing, the more you make. You could utilize your specialized knowledge in meteorology and translate textbooks and the like. Again, just suggestions. I hope you find something that matches your passion for meteorology while allowing you to have the flexibility to earn a wage that you can be comfortable with. Best of luck to you, hope this helps!

You’re totally right! We actually have that gig listed in our list of ways to get paid to read, but it totally bears mentioning here too. Thanks for sharing!

Hey Natasha!

That’s quite the lineup of income streams. Awesome.

Personally, I like Mercari. The fees are lower than Ebay’s and it’s super easy to use. You snap a photo, write a description, set the shipping (or local pick up) price and you’re all set. You can “Promote” the listing for free and hopefully, your shoes are sold in a few hours to days.

Perhaps the easiest way to sell greeting cards is on Etsy. Chron has a primer guide on it here. After that, you can scale your business on an e-commerce site (like Shopify or BigCommerce or blog of your own. You can cut out Etsy’s fees and leverage advertising to drive more customers to your shop.

Hey Jimmy. Sorry to hear this. But I guess being a lifelong learner is really important. Because when you learn, you grow. I would really want you to try and learn new skills because we’re paid for the work we do. That said, there are great resources to learn from- Udemy, Open course wares, Coursera, and stuff. And don’t forget books are one of the greatest resources! No one has become what they are by birth. A violinist wasn’t born with a violin or play the violin, a runner had to learn and practice running. Everyone who has achieved something has put in the effort because it takes effort to reach anywhere. Hard work pays off. I hope you will do great, and please keep on learning and growing!

Hang in there my friend. I am in the exact same situation as you and it’s discouraging because I feel like everyone will just let me go after a month. Been looking around online for some stay at home jobs that don’t require a phone because I don’t have a quiet room in my house. Been looking for moderation jobs for forums and what not.
