How you can earn retirement money with side gigs

Spending our days on the links or knocking back a few electric lemonades on the front porch is not the retirement reality for a lot of LGBTQ+ Americans. With the growing retirement crisis hurting marginalized communities more, many must still work in retirement.  So, what can you do if this applies to you? 

On this episode of Queer Money®, we’re sharing the top ten side gigs or part-time jobs you might take on in retirement. We explain how working in retirement affects Social Security benefits and discuss how much you can earn as a pet sitter, rideshare driver or vending machine investor. We also describe opportunities to supplement your retirement income as an online teacher, handyman or fitness instructor.

Listen in for insight on leveraging your professional expertise as a consultant and get ideas for the retirement side gig that’s a good fit for you!
