Alternative Income
Nov 19th, 2007 by Nut
I’ve mentioned the importance of diversifying your income before. So after seeing so many blogs listing their alternative income streams, I’m happy to announce my own “ticker.”
I received an advance for this freelance job I’m about to finish (today, actually). So that’s $80. And this week I should get paid the rest ($170). I also have a monthly gig set up with this same client for quick web projects that will net me $30/month.
I’ll resist the temptation to add all that up together and just go ahead and list my alternative income so far:
$80
It’s all very exciting.
Open an ING account and get a $25 bonus!
