Frequently Asked Questions About Making More Money

What are the main ways this page suggests to make more money?

Two tracks: negotiation and career growth. That means negotiating a raise in your current job, improving your skills, or moving to a higher-paying role — the page’s framing is simple: more income means more options.

Does making more money help with debt specifically?

Yes — the articles linked from this page connect directly to debt payoff, including real-world gig-work examples (the Penny Stupid series following Damon Day’s actual gig-work earnings and math) and myth-vs-reality breakdowns of side hustles, online arbitrage, and MLM programs.

Are side hustles actually worth it?

It depends — several linked articles on this page are built specifically to separate the myth from the reality: “Side Hustle Income Fear,” “Side Hustles: When They Help and When They Hurt,” and “MLM Programs: When They Help and When They Hurt” all take a clear-eyed look rather than promising easy money.

What’s the Penny Stupid series linked on this page?

It follows Damon Day, who runs the Penny Stupid Project, through actual gig shifts (Walmart Spark, multi-apping, and similar work), showing the real math behind what gig work actually pays, including the days it doesn’t work out.

Can I get ongoing tips on making more money?
