老板再见!5种捷径外快赚够了就跑吧
Nearly everyone dreams of quitting his or her day job, whether it's tomorrow, next year or in the next decade.
几乎每人都想辞掉自己日常的工作,无论是明天辞职,明年辞职,还是下个十年辞职。
However, there is a wide chasm between "dreams" and "action" that many people never seem to cross — and it's usually due to finances.
然而,从“梦想”到“行动”,中间还有一个相当大的鸿沟,那是许多人都无法跨越的,因为这个鸿沟常常就与收入来源有很大的关系。
Obviously, if you want to quit, you need to find another way to make enough income to pay your bills, save for the future and enjoy life.
不用说,如果你想辞职,你还得找到别的方法才能养家糊口,才能未雨绸缪,享受生活。
But what's the best way to do this? How can you make enough "side income" now so you can quit your job in the near future?
那么赚取生活费的最佳方式是什么呢?怎样才能赚取足够的“外快”及早摆脱目前的工作呢?
Here are five great ways to make side income while still working your day job:
如果你还纠结在目前的工作里,那么下面有5种很棒的赚取外快的方法,让你尽快脱离困境:
1. Invest in real estate.
1.投资房地产。
Real-estate investing is not always passive, and not always easy, but it can be highly profitable. In addition, there are hundreds of ways to invest in real estate. For example, you could:
投资房地产并不总是消极,容易的事情,但这确实能带来很高的收益。并且,投资房地产的方式有很多。比如下面这些:
• Flip houses
·翻转房屋
• Own rental houses
·出租房屋
• Become a "house hacker"
·成为“房屋骇客”
• Own vacation rentals (Airbnb)
·出租度假屋
Real-estate investing is my favorite way to create side income because it runs like a locomotive. It might take a little time to build up, but once it's running, it goes a long way with less effort and is hard to stop.
投资房地产是笔者最喜欢的获取外快的方式,因为它能像火车头前进一样,财源滚滚而来。也许开始的时候需要花点时间建立起来,不过当它走上轨道,只需一点点努力就能得到长期的发展,而且一旦开始了,就难以停下来。
2. Write a book.
2. 撰写书籍。
Many people have dreams of writing a book, but very few ever do. They think it's too hard, that they don't know enough, don't have enough time, aren't smart enough or whatever other excuse they can come up with. But the truth is: you can write a book, and that book can help you make additional monthly income.
许多人都有写书的梦想,但是极少数人真的做到了。人们会认为写书是一件非常困难的事情,自己的知识有限,没有足够的时间,还没有足够的聪明才智或者别的借口。但实际上:你可以写书,并且书籍还能为你增加每月的收入。
There are several avenues you can take when writing a book, and there is no "best route." For example:
写书时有几个途径可供选择,但没有“最佳的途径”。比如下面的:
• You could write a series of shorter topic-specific books and publish them on Kindle.
你可以写一系列的短篇故事书籍,并把它们发布到Kindle网站上。
• You could self-publish through your own website and sell to your existing customers.
你可以通过网站自主出版书籍并出售给现有的顾客。
• You could partner with a larger platform and sell to its audience (as I did).
你可以与更大的平台合作,然后把书籍推销给它的顾客(笔者就是这么做的)。
• You could work to get published through a major publishing company (probably the most difficult path).
你可以找一家主流的出版公司出版你的作品。(有可能是最困难的)
• You could record an audiobook and publish it on Audible.
你可以把书籍录制成有声书然后在Audible这样的有声读物网站上发布。
Writing a book today is not as tough as it once was, as there are so many avenues with which you could publish. The keys are now in your hands.
如今撰写书籍已经不再如从前那般困难了,因为现在发布个人书籍作品的途径非常多。关键在于你自己的选择。
