Side Hustle Expert & Financial Content Creator
Hey! I'm Glen Meade, and I started SideQuestHustle after trying every side hustle under the sun (literally). When I first got laid off in 2019, I was desperately searching for ways to make money and kept finding generic "make money online" articles that clearly weren't written by people who'd actually tried anything.
So I decided to test everything myself. I drove for Uber (made $127 my first week), donated plasma twice a week for 6 months (earned $1,800 total), freelanced on Fiverr (my first gig was writing a 500-word article for $5), and even tried selling my hair online (spoiler: didn't work well for a guy). Some ventures flopped spectacularly, others became reliable income streams.
What I learned is that most side hustles work, but they're not magic money machines. Uber driving earned me about $18/hour after expenses, plasma donation was basically $40-50 per visit, and Fiverr took 3 months before I was earning $500/month consistently. The difference is knowing what to expect going in.
Now I share real numbers, real timeframes, and real challenges so you don't waste time on stuff that won't work for your situation. Everything on this site comes from either my direct experience or detailed research from people actually doing it. No fluff, no "earn $5000 in your first week" nonsense - just honest info about what actually works.
