#MoneyMakingSkills #PersonalDevelopment #CareerGrowth
Hey everyone! So, I’ve been thinking about my future and how I can develop a new skill to bring in some extra cash down the road. 🤔 With 2 years to dedicate myself to learning, I want to make the most of this opportunity.
Here’s a quick background on me: I have a background in program management and marketing, and I will soon graduate with an MBA. My goal is to find a skill that can generate an additional $40K – $80K per year, working around 15-25 hours per week.
Some options I’m considering are software development/machine learning, business consulting, or diving deep into finance and financial models. But I’m open to exploring other ideas too!
What do you think? If you had 2 years to dedicate yourself to learning a new money-making skill, what would you choose? Let’s brainstorm together and share our thoughts! And hey, if you have any suggestions for me based on my background, I’d love to hear them too. Let’s help each other grow and succeed! 🌟💡
I personally think that software development/machine learning could be a solid choice, given your quantitative background and the growing demand for tech skills. With the right training and dedication, you could position yourself for a lucrative career in this field. But ultimately, the best choice is one that aligns with your interests, skills, and long-term goals. Good luck on your learning journey! 🚀👩💻

So is one of you planning to stop working when you have kids? This level of hustle mentality is kind of out of control. You already make $100k, you’re married to a doctor, and you need another side hustle for $80k? Are you drowning in debt? Trying to magic a $500k down payment into existence? What you want doesn’t sound healthy. Get a hobby not a job you don’t need career advice lmao
I’d take several of the skills you mentioned (programming, quant) plus certificate training and projects to get hired as a remote or hybrid government contractor working in ***data*** engineering/analyst/science. The science side is the only one that should be particularly math heavy in most actual jobs.
I know someone that majored in music without being particularly data or programming talented. 3 years in the career and he’s making around 130k when he was bagging groceries before. He met that right person at a coding group who could see himself working with him. This is in a small city. Our office had a decent turnover because people would often roughly double their salary when the moved to a job in a big city. To be clear, this person is an *extreme case*, I don’t want anyone reading this to think that it’s norm, but I’d expect that type of success with your background.

Sales is the only real answer is the #1 answer across any niche or vertical.
Learning how to actually sell will travel across everything products, to ideas, to interpersonal relations.
There is not a day that goes buy that you don’t have to sell your ideas, self, product, service…. You name it.
