Tend Bar

If cooking isn’t your passion, but mixing drinks is, then tending a bar could be a perfect way to generate more income. You’ll rely on tips for the most part, as you can expect around $3 to $5 hourly. How much time it’ll take to generate $500 depends on your tips.

However, this might be the perfect job for those who have free weekends, depending on where you live. Currently, it might be difficult to find a job due to the coronavirus pandemic, but if lockdown orders have been lessened as of late, it could be a great opportunity. We recommend looking towards higher-end establishments.

Run the Books

Those with software and accounting skills could work as bookkeepers part-time in order to make more money on the side. With around $15 to $25 per hour, you’d need to work 20 to 33 hours in order to reach $500.

Small businesses may be looking for bookkeepers in order to keep all their money in order, especially if they do not have the budget to hire someone full-time. That’s where you come in. The hours may not be as flexible as with other jobs, and that’s a downside you might have to consider.

The one saving grace is that a lot of people do bookkeeping online nowadays, so fitting this part-time job in without worrying about heading into a different office could work best for you!
