While the pay is obviously severely subpar, the reason the likes of Uber have a seemingly bottomless number of drivers is because it's one of the few jobs that has literally zero requirements other than turning on the app. You're free to work whenever, and wherever, you'd like, and if you don't like the idea of driving people around, you could deliver for Uber Eats, DoorDash or another dining app.

Or you could get creative: I've had side hustles running in sneakers & watches for over a decade now. The market for both isn't what it was five years ago, but you can still make a tidy profit if you know what you're doing – problem being how to figure out how what you're doing is actually working. I spent hundreds of hours researching both fields before even starting in them, just to be clear, since you can easily lose your shirt if you don't know what the fuck you're doing.

Hell, I even flip cars from time to time. On occasion you can find unicorn cars on Craigslist: in a nutshell those are extremely low-mileage vehicles – think 2009 cars with 20K miles – often previously owned by seniors who don't drive that much. Even a POS unicorn can be flipped on sites like BringATrailer for a sometimes huge profit.
