Definitely Uber driver if you have a car that meets their criteria. Unfortunately, mine is too old and I certainly cannot afford something else. Substitute teaching is a great idea and something I would like to pursue if I can stop commuting.

I've always found it easier and more profitable to pick up extra flying than anything else. Scheduling is easier that way too. For a short 2-leg day trip I usually get between 200 and almost 300 bucks of take-home.

It is joke. A sad one!!! There is no shortage of pilots, just a shortage of those who can afford to be a pilot.

Male escort - just be careful of the women that like whips and chains

Male stripper - but the glitter can get in really annoying places

Pimp - the FBI and feminists tend to frown on this, but the money is good

Assassin - international travel, adventure, you get a really cool gun

Just to illustrate my earlier post...

Yesterday I flew one leg. Block time was 48 minutes. My gross pay was $330.88.
