Work

What do you all do for a living. I received disability but it is barely enough to pay the bills. Trying to brain storm jobs and maybe business or side hustles that work with not being reliable and such.

  1. Hi . What a great idea for a forum post. I hope you get lots of responses. Are you at all crafty? Many people I know who are on disability sell crafts at craft fairs. You can get a good feel for what sells if you check out a few as the holiday season approaches. Baked goods are popular at craft shows as well. Freelance writing can pull in a few extra dollars. Rather than querying ideas and getting locked in on deadline, you can try to sell completed pieces. Creative nonfiction (personal essays) is really popular right now. I am excited to see what people suggest. Best wishes. - Lori (Team Member)
