Don’t over analyse, here’s a list of 50+ second income ideas to start this weekend (post COVID)


Did you even think in your worst dreams something like COVID will make things so uncertain?

Job security?

Finances?

Managing family?

Daily expenses?

Savings?

Corporate stories!

Everything has gone for a toss. 

The most important lesson I learnt is -- stop replying on one source of income, make a plan (avoid such scams), and start a second income stream.

The challenge is how do we find something that generates second income stream?

Don't worry, I have got you covered today. I have below, a solid list of second income ideas.

Easy to start, low-cost, and you could begin from your home.

In the 6 months of COVID and lockdown, I was able to do few things:

  • Picked 1 business idea (nothing fancy, just a small business idea enough to generate second income)
  • Did some research
  • Got 4 paying clients
  • Start a second income stream
  • Earned 4 lakhs in revenue

Is it a lot? Maybe not. But, it allows me to diversify my risk, and get the freedom to increase my income. 

Since once you find 1-3 paying clients, you can get the next 5, and then the next 10, and so on.

So, let me show you the list handpicked and proven to generate income.

You can use this for inspiration, or do some research on it, and finally take methodical action on it in the next 3 months.

Do not obsess on questions like "how do I get my first client?", or "there is so much competition already" -- we will talk about all these things.

And do not listen to the "so-called" experts

Right now, just pick 1-3 ideas that interest you the most, and let me know which one in the comments.
