My first thought is to become a translator. See # 32, “#32. Interpreter Or Translator”
]]>Hi Jamie,
Have you considered digital/electronic file work?
Another option is going the virtual assistant route, aiming to work for a lawyer/law office. I took a quick look and there are some admin positions for law firms on Upwork.

]]>I can’t speak for Workana or Freelancers.com (which I haven’t used), but Fiverr and Upwork are both legit, well-known and reputable sites that provide solid platforms for earning money as a freelancer.
If you’re concerned about not getting paid, I would strongly recommend sticking to those two sites. Upwork in particular offers excellent protection for freelancers — just make sure you’re applying to jobs that show as “funded.” That means the client has already placed the stated budget in escrow.
Additionally, Upwork offers a payment protection policy, so long as you use its app to track your hours.
]]>There are a number of different sites where you can earn money with your graphic design skills. The two most popular are Upwork and Fiverr, which are general freelance marketplaces where you’ll find all kinds of work — from creating Pinterest graphics to developing full branding/visual style guides for small businesses.
99Designs, which is a marketplace exclusively for graphic design work, is another popular option. While there are some sites that focus on specific niches — such as t-shirt design — I would stick with those three platforms if you’re new to the gig economy. They’re reputable, fairly easy to get started on, and generally pay decent rates.
]]>It’s hard for me to say as not being an expert in the hospitality industry. In addition, it’s an industry that’s been hit the hardest as of late.
FlexJobs does have a page with recent listings in the hospitality industry: https://www.flexjobs.com/jobs/travel-hospitality
I’d start there to get a sense of what’s out there.
]]>Hi.
