Looking for new money-making opportunities? We have some ideas.

Are you ever sitting around thinking how nice it would be to have a little bit of extra income, but not sure what you want to invest your time doing? We’ve pulled together some ideas on how to make a little extra cash.

1. Start a side hustle, like selling handmade items on Etsy: Are you a crafty person? If you can dream it, someone out there probably wants to buy it. Online markets like Etsy are a great place to sell these items. Make sure you keep receipts and know which work expenses you can claim on your taxes!

2. Use your time and/or vehicle to run errands using apps like Uber and SkipThe Dishes: Many people who live in urban areas use services like meal and grocery delivery as part of their daily lives, so why not take advantage of having a car or bike and spend some evenings making deliveries? The cost of gas related to your deliveries is tax deductible as a business expense, too!

3. If you’ve got a cottage or property that you don’t always use, rent it on Airbnb: While your property value appreciates whether you use it or not, what a great way to make some extra cash. Cleaning supplies and marketing can be deducted as business expenses as well.

4. Find a new vocation: Now is a great time to learn new skills and increase your earning potential. Though a higher salary means a higher tax bracket, Canada has a graduated or progressive taxation system, so contrary to internet urban legends, you’ll never take home less pay just because you entered a new tax bracket. Also, some provinces have tax credits and benefits for increasing your knowledge base, which can help when you’re balancing adult life expenses and going to school.
