Snowflaking on the Side
I know I’ve already mentioned this once, but I just have to point out Antishay’s great series on Building a Snowflake Business.
This is really helpful for me since I don’t have the hours for a part-time job, haven’t been getting large bonuses/raises at work lately and have cut the budget as much as I plan to (for now).
I’m planning to post some things for sale on Craigslist tonight, then get started on implementing Shanti’s ideas for snowflake businesses. There are a lot of areas I have training and expertise in (writing, graphic design, piano, etc.), but always seem to lack the confidence to get out there and try to make money with them. But I think getting out of debt is worth it!

Yay
Thanks for the link!
I think you’ll find that it’s not only easy but FUN to start side businesses that embrace your talents. Who knew that 5 years after high school I would have a blast tutoring in American history? Not me, lol…
Maybe you can find some piano students - that sounds like a lot of fun!
