Turn Deals into a Side Hustle (To MAXIMIZE Your Income)
00:00:00.000 | What you've done, and it seems so genius to me,
00:00:02.900 | is you've actually turned the deals into a side hustle
00:00:06.220 | so that you can generate income.
00:00:07.940 | - Well, it's been a couple decades of doing this,
00:00:09.940 | but primarily it really ramped up
00:00:11.900 | when my wife and I did the FIRE,
00:00:13.820 | the early retirement thing,
00:00:15.660 | and we wanted a way to kind of supplement our income
00:00:18.920 | because you're on a kind of a tighter budget
00:00:21.000 | when you do FIRE.
00:00:21.920 | Profitable deals, it's one of those things
00:00:23.400 | where you can tackle a whole plethora of things
00:00:26.240 | that people often don't think about.
00:00:27.840 | You know, credit cards, I think, are the main things
00:00:30.440 | people think about when it comes to sign-up bonuses,
00:00:32.280 | but there's this whole avenue of bank bonuses,
00:00:35.400 | brokerage bonuses, meal kits that you can do
00:00:38.320 | that can really make you a lot of money,
00:00:39.880 | and that's for us, like, in the last couple of years,
00:00:42.160 | you know, I think 2023, we made $36,000
00:00:45.760 | doing these profitable deals,
00:00:47.280 | and two and a half million points the year before
00:00:49.880 | was $32,000 and a million points,
00:00:52.960 | so it's been slowly kind of climbing up in that sense,
00:00:56.400 | and I think we're on track to make even more this year.
