It has improved certain processes. It's made things more efficient. But you know, an entrepreneur is somebody who jumps off the cliff and figures out how to build their parachute on the way down. What side hustles allow you to do is just reduce the height of the cliff. Even if you don't have a side hustle, even if you don't have a business, you are the CEO of your own life.

And of course they do because side hustles enable security and freedom and allow you to follow your passion while making money.
Is AI the future of side hustles?
Who wouldn't love having a side hustle? I actually started Yap Media as a side hustle six years ago. And I'm so happy that I dedicated the time and effort it took to get this side business off the ground because now it's my main hustle and I make millions of dollars a year off of this business and I have so much security and freedom. and live in my dream. So side hustles are awesome.

And he interviews people with really unique and cool side hustle ideas all the time. So he's a wealth of information. He's got so much to share on how we can create and execute a very successful side hustle. Let's dive right into my conversation with Nick Loper. Nick, welcome to Young and Profiting Podcast.
Happy to be back. Thanks for having me.
Of course. So fun fact, I was looking back in the archives and I realized that you came on the podcast back in 2018, episode 10. You were one of the first podcasters and people in general that I've ever interviewed. And I think it's just so awesome because you were somebody that I looked up to. And now everything is so full circle because I'm not only interviewing you again on the podcast, you're in my podcast network. We work together. And so I just feel like it's just a beautiful moment right now.
It was one of these things where I think you reached out, whatever that was, 2017, 2018. And it's like, this girl's a go-getter. You know, she's going places. You know, want to watch this journey. And it's been really inspiring to see what you built starting as a side project and into this media behemoth conglomerate that you've got going on now.
Thank you. I really appreciate that. I appreciate you taking a chance on me. And And we were talking about remote work and the future of remote work, not even realizing that two years later, everything would accelerate with COVID. And so my first question to you is, give us the evolution of side hustles. How did it start? When did it start to pick up steam? And where are we at now?
Yeah, I don't think it's a new concept by any means. I think previous generations would have called it moonlighting or having a second job. And it might have looked like bartending on the weekends or delivering pizzas or having a rental property. But the realm of potential side hustles has absolutely expanded in the last 10 years with the rise of peer-to-peer gig economy type of apps, plug-and-play side hustles. Sign up for Uber and go drive around or do DoorDash and stuff like that. There's a peer-to-peer platform for just about anything.
