Side Hustle School with Chris Guillebeau Feb 13, 2021

Show notes

No time like the present to start thinking about that side hustle you've always dreamed about. If a global pandemic doesn't get you motivated, I'm not sure what will.

And if you are raking in some extra cash on the side, there will be tax consequences! That's why we're happy to bring you another episode that's sponsored by H&R Block.

As you're getting ready to file your taxes, remember that H&R Block has all your tax needs covered. Their experts have an average of 10 years’ experience. They’ve seen it all and can help get all the credits and deductions you deserve.

Okay, now back to your side hustle.

Do you have to be an “entrepreneur,” replete with a big, fat business plan in hand, to make a little extra cash on the side?

What if I told you that in 27 days you can come up with an idea, implement it, and potentially start making some extra income on the side?

That is what you call a side hustle, which also happens to be the title of a book from Chris Guillebeau, who's nice enough to join us this weekend.

While the thought of quitting your day job to pursue a business of your own may be intoxicating and even escapist, it may also be a bit unrealistic. Most of us can’t just up and quit a job that delivers a regular paycheck and benefits, to boot.

But what if you could quickly and easily create an additional stream of income without giving up the security of a full-time job? Enter Chris and the side hustle.

Tax Season Tips with Ed Slott Feb 06, 2021

Show notes

After a tumultuous 2020, the IRS will open tax filing season on Friday, February 12th, a few weeks later than years in the past. The deadline to file and pay any tax owed is once again different, with Tax Day being delayed to May 17, 2021.

To celebrate the upcoming opening of tax season, this weekend we're bringing you the second of three tax-related episodes,

Each will be sponsored by H&R Block.

The first episode was all about your taxes and COVID-19, and in case you missed it, you can find it here.

This weekend is more of a general dive on everything you need to know as you prepare to file.

And just like the first episode, we're once again joined by the one and only Ed Slott, the ultimate tax guru and founder of IRA Help.
