Personal Training was great b/c I made my own schedule and made $50/hr but the certification is almost a $1000. Yipes. Also, valet parking racks up tons of tips if you live in a major city. I made on average $100 a night working 6 hour shifts. Sometimes it was up to $300.

I do website and graphics design for a small aircraft dispatch school on the side. The money is ok, but it's going to be great for sitting around all day and double-dipping while on reserve (5 miles from CVG if I can ever hold that base)

Most of us have at least three days off a week on the average. I'm starting to look around for a part-time job that I could work at for one or two of those days.
Does anyone know of any online-type jobs you can do while sitting for hours in a hotel? Doing a search for them on the internet is useless because at least 99% of them are scams.

Many lawyers who are sole practitioners or share offices with other lawyers do not have legal assistants or legal secretaries. They also have a lot of legal documents that need typing up. If you are a good, fast, accurate typist and can turn a project back in on time, perhaps you can market yourself to them. Obviously, you won't be able to do those that are time-sensitive or due in court the next day or something, but the routine ones might be an idea. As with anything legal, there is always the concern for confidentiality of client information as it passes through cyberspace into non-secure computers.
Or, you could go to law school yourself, then draft wills on those three days off you have.

I work in an office to pay the bills, so flying is actually my extra job. Skydivers in a 182... doesn't pay much but if you consider renting a 182 is $150 an hour it's good. I may add CFI'ing to the program if and when it ever happens.

My mother-in-law does medical transcriptionist work from her home for two companies. She gets paid by the line, so along with what was already said, if you have the ability to type quickly and accurately, that's something that you can actually take on the road with you and do it on your spare time if you so desire. She loves it, and I keep trying to find the time to take the two or three classes from the community college to get certified.
