Current Events > Do you guys have any side hustles or ways of making extra money?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I sometimes send bills to companies for "money transfer" services. In most cases they don't pay, but when they do, I get free money. My company's website clearly states that it offers services of you transferring money to me by paying my unsolicited bills. That's the entire service. If you pay the bill, you received the service, and thus can't complain. I do offer a 1 month full refund, just to avoid most lawsuits. I get a lot of repeat orders from large companies with bad accountants. Keep in mind, it's technically not a scam though, because I've already been challenged in court and I got off with lawyer fees paid.

I make a few thousand every year opening a couple dozen or so bank accounts for the sign-up bonuses.

Nah. I'm content with how much money I make from my 40 hours of work.

If I ever needed more money I could just be smarter with what I already have and spend less on unnecessary shit.

No way, that's something totally different.

Technically no, since I'm not misrepresenting or advertising any kind of service that isn't being provided.
