Hello again! Now, I’m going to have to be a little careful here and Insta’s temperamental house pet, named ‘Algo’ doesn’t seem to favour numb£r$ in a post when talking about side hustles. I shall do my best to keep it amicable; so let’s begin: Have you an extra room in your home you’d like to earn a return on without the ‘axman’ chopping away some? Why not open your door to the idea of the Rent a Room Scheme?! Breakdown-Lowdown: RARS lets you earn up to ‘£Seven Thousand Five Hundred’ per year, TAX-FREE, from letting out furnished accommodation in your home. If you're feeling generous and decide to share this newfound wealth with your partner, or roomie, then no worries, that threshold gets halved. (‘Algo’ if you’re crawling, that information has come from the UK Government Website) 🏠🤖🕷️ If this is sounding good, you can let out as much of your home as *you* please. No judgments, from anyone! Ultimately, everybody loves their space, especially after a long day grafting. 🌆🛋️ In a tiny nutshell, how does it work? As long as you're earning less than the threshold (read above), sign up, sit back, earn, and breathe - hassle-free! 😌🔑 Should, via other ventures, you happen to cross the threshold mark, then it’s back to those old school traditions; you know, that well-worn route us old-fashioned folk use - records of income and expenses need to go on the property pages of your tax return. Even then, you’re still winning. 📝💼 📈 There are plenty of help sheets online under the Rent a Room schemes (gov.uk/rent-room-in-your-home) and some excellent guides on when it makes sense to opt out to take your rental to the next level. 📚💡 As long as you are a resident landlord (homeowner or not) or you run a bed and breakfast/guest house, you are eligible for the scheme. It does not apply for homes that have been converted into separate flats. 🏡 May you find the extra space to grant you the extra 💷, Tris #rentaroom #algo #freespace #sidehustleideas #dailycommute #passiveincometips #entrepreneurship #moneyflow #extraroom #propertytips

Joel Rémy-Parkes first came to my attention several years ago with a rather novel idea he was promoting via Amazon. Joel is the founder of Bamboo Bamboo, a brand specialising in eco-friendly and plastic-free children's tableware. What began as a little idea on the side to simplify his life as a parent, has today blossomed into a multimillion-pound success story. His advice for aspiring entrepreneurs, and you've heard old Tris tell it to you before, is 'just start' ...as in now! Joel struggled at school and never made it to university. He had plans of becoming a pilot and subsequently went into sales as a means to fund that dream. In 2016, then in comfortable employment as a digital software seller and also a father, he felt the need for something more. Realising how messy meal times were with a baby and also the toll plastic was having on our planet, he began tinkering with some business ideas in his flat. Before long, he resigned from his job to pursue his dreams... Joel took the leap! 'Bamboo Bamboo' became his focus, growing it into a multimillion-pound enterprise. Pursuing his dream not only brought personal fulfilment but also a purpose; building a legacy for his four children and the earth. The company found solutions to consumers’ (tired ones at that👨‍🍼👩‍🍼) problems! It gave back; which is always a good thing! Here are a few very worthy tips from Joel. They may seem simple, but trust me they can apply anywhere: •Get started! •Although ideas are abundant, execution is critical. •You won't know if it works until you try. •Improve on existing products. Find market gaps and make them better. •Be remarkable. Solve real problems and let your product speak for itself. Social media provides a platform for authentic reviews and experiences. It's a place where you can address consumer needs, creating products that stand out and are spoken about without hefty marketing budgets. Innovation isn't about reinventing the wheel; it's about making it smoother! However slow, keep moving forward, Tris @bamboo_bamboo.uk #sidehustlesuccess #successstories #workingdads #selffund #enviromental #impact #sustainable #practical #familyfreindly #peppapig #mealtimes

Drive your way to passive earnings! 💰🚗 (Did you see what I did?) Have you got an empty parking space just sitting there, getting frosty, as you travel about via public transport? Why not thaw it into a cash? 🅿️💸 Whether you're a city dweller or a cul-de-sac fan, as long as you reside near local hotspots or commuter links, someone will be willing to pay you for that prime spot! Imagine earning roughly £200+ a month for doing absolutely… nothing! Depending on your location, you stand to pocket between £50 to £500 per booking, it’s a no-brainer! 💷💼 I have personal experience of this, once hiring a parking spot near Twickenham to watch the Barbarians v World XV. Not a huge game, however I payed £65 for my spot in somebody’s drive only a few minutes walk away from the grounds! ….BaaBaas won btw, 48-42 and it was a truly wonderful day out! A far bigger event would’ve probably set me back 5 times that figure! Worth remembering that there are on average about 15 rugby events a year at Twickers, five of which definitely draw crowds in excess of 60000🚀🅿️ Here are a few companies to easily get this venture going: JustPark, ParkLet, Park On My Drive and plenty more online. Look them up and have a read. They sort the contracts, collect payments, making sure your venture runs smoothly! 🌐💼 Remember friends, your side hustle, like road tax, is taxable. Stay legit! May your driveway be paved with gold, Tris #parking #drivewaygoals #extracash #moneymaking #moneymakingideas #dailycommute #passiveincometips #passiveincomeideas #entrepreneurship

Happy New Year Entrepreneurs! As of January 1st, 2024, be aware that new tax rules come into effect for all your extra hustles, like those of you selling clothes or renting your rooms out online. Platforms such as Vinted, Airbnb, and eBay will be sharing transaction details with tax authorities to help crack down on tax evasion globally. Few quick picks to help your clicks: • If you're already paying taxes, no major changes needed; put your feet up. • Individuals have a £1,000 tax-free allowance for earnings from property and "trading" income (e.g., selling online). • Sellers with less than 30 transactions or £1,735 a year won't be affected; keep records anyway! If you think you might exceed the £1,000 trading allowance, talk to your tax authorities and stay ahead. Don’t leave it all till the last minute; remain informed, legit and avoid those penalties. 2024 is your year 📊💰💼 Wishing you continued success, Tris #sidehustle #sidehustleideas #freelancers #taxpayers #tax #moneyflow #digitalplatforms #onlineseller #hmrc #compliance

‘Neither an end nor a beginning but a going on, with all the wisdom that experience can instill in us’ Wishing everybody a healthy and happy 24!

May the blessings of the season and the year anew, fill your homes with warmth and only happy memories. 🎄🥃❤️ Wishing you and your families a happy Christmas and a healthy, prosperous 2024.

Everybody’s got to believe in something. I believe I’ll be having another one of these in next to no time! 🍹🍹 It's Friday so why not start the weekend early, poolside with sand underfoot!🏊‍♂️ Hasta La Vista Baby!

A different kind of commute today and thankfully not in a stuffy cubicle!🚃💼 First the first time, in a long while, my office desk has a wonderful view. Just hope I remembered to pack my swim shorts. 🏊‍♂️ Should you ever find yourself in the area of San Pedro De Alcántara, I recommend a visit to Restaurante El Cortijo de Ramiro @elcortijoderamiro for some wonderful mediterranean cuisine. Dishes are dressed up elegantly and with live music filling the air, it’s a beautiful feast for all the senses. The ambience is charming and warm with a menu that won’t break the bank; I wholly recommended!🥘🍽️ Wishing everybody a productive day. Saludos, Tris ps Laptop was not left to burn under the baking sun. It was there momentarily for the photo! Maybe it needs a sun hat and drink…🍹😁 #officewithaview #workandplay #workfromanywhere #lifebalance #tapas #culinarydelights #passiveincome #humpdayvibes #marbella #marbellalife #localeats #spanishfood #workabroad #dailycommute

Previously, I had mentioned my best mate, Charlie! During our ambles, I often bump into professional dog walkers and it got me thinking: “what a great way to earn some ‘paw-sive’ income” (I am a dad, therefore fully licensed to tell those)! With minimal startup costs, flexible hours, all that walking, it’s a win-win! Carry a camera and you’ve doubled your side hustle (See last post) Dog walking requires little investment. A customised van (i.e. internal cage doors), a love and understanding of pet breeds, knowledge of canine first aid, insurance, snacks, leashes, waste bags and you’re good to go. Become familiar with Section 4 and 9 of the Animal Welfare Act 2006, Dogs Acts 1991/1871 and before you can say, SIT, you’re on the right track! Life is busy! The rise in pet ownership during covid years have added to the demand for this service. Professionals or those with limited mobility, seek to ensure the wellbeing of their furry companions. Whether on early morning hikes, lunchtime strolls, or evening rambles, you can choose your hours and fit it around existing commitments such as a full-time job or family responsibilities. Being reliable and trustworthy, clients will not only become repeat customers but refer you. Provide an exceptional service to our four-legged friends and you can have a healthy, fulfilling and financially rewarding endeavour on your hands … or on a leash! It’s even scalable by way of pet sitting, grooming, even a daycare centre! In Brighton and Hove, the average hourly rate for dog walking is between £13 to £15. Take 4 beasties out, twice daily, and that’s a lot of coffee for a couple of hours work! From a personal pov, thanks to Charlie, I cannot stress how wonderful I feel after our walks. We both explore in the fresh air, sometimes even having the opportunity to chase a pheasant (me, not the dog)! I have also noticed a huge change in my physical and mental state, feeling happier and lighter in spirit. So dust off your walking shoes and embark on this wonderful path with man's best friend! Always sniffing out bits, 😁 Tris #dogwalker #diversify #passiveincomeideas #passiveincome #moneyideas #dailycommute #mindsetmatters #charlie

How many photos are on your mobile phone that will never see the light of day… ever? I have 8253 photos with 762 videos spanning over a decade, mainly of my family and the walks I take with Charlie, my Jack-Russell. Mobiles today capture enough resolution to fit on the side of a bus (slight exaggeration); some even work underwater too! Effortlessly, I have stored images of woods, mushrooms, sunsets and happy hour drinks; maybe I am a budding creative at heart after all! 🐶🍄📸 Remember how you’d click away with abandonment on your first camera phone?! In a blink, it’s about composition, lighting and your 'best side' for the selfies! This shows you're paying attention to the details. Why not earn from your efforts rather than all this stock just sit in some darkened corner of a memory chip?! Stock libraries do not get you rich! Some photographers view three years as the absolute minimum amount of time to gain a fair level of passive income. Uploading 200-300 adequate images per month, with descriptions and keywords, is by no means an easy feat, however, fast forward a few years and in the click of a shutter you’ve become the owner of a healthy online portfolio earning a hundred or so pounds per month. Not much of a return I hear you say, but far better they just vanish on a drive somewhere. Earn while you sleep; however meagre it may seem, earn! Consider the possibility also that one, or even a few, of your images may end up in viral campaigns; bigger earnings with a lifetime of bragging rights too! “DFTS, it seems a lot of effort for not much return” - I hear you Look at it another way; you will be out and about! Miles of walking, discovering new landscapes! Fresh air and not a gym membership in sight. Savings = Earnings! Come the dank winter months, stay in, work on your studio shots ...maybe rejoin the gym!😜 Keep walking, stay focused, Tris 📸 @jeshoots #stockphotos #stockphotography #stockphotographer #viralphotos #photoideas #photoshoots #diversification #investinyourself #passiveincomeinvesting #passiveincome #passiveincomestream #personalfinances #moneyflow #dailycommute #mindsetmatters

Bitcoin is art!
Don’t believe me? Read on… We are bombarded (I am anyway) by financial news about the few wins and the many losses of venturing into crypto. So why pay attention to this rather cryptic form of money? Let me try and break it down… Lovers of investment strategies (yours truly), understand that diversification is fundamentally one of the most important and valuable factors to a balanced portfolio. Simply put, it reduces risk to your money while potentially increasing returns over time. Where you lose on one sector of the market, you win on the other! An old hippy friend of mine has a proverb; ‘One who finds balance, sleeps without rocking’! Invest smart and your road to growth will be less rocky. Just as art collectors have a variety of painters, sculpture and antiquities in their collections, investors hold a variety of stocks, bonds and alternatives; those alternatives might include Bitcoin and so on. Fine Art is subjective, yet a unique and valuable creation. Some see spray paint on a wall as a stain on our society, while other’s treasure it’s beauty - “Banksy, I’ve got an off white garage door with your name on it, pal!” Bitcoin, like art, is scarce. There are only a limited number of original artworks; there is also only a finite number of Bitcoin that will ever exist – 21 million to be precise. This scarcity adds value, making it desirable to those who believe in its potential, like paintings on walls. Being a limited resource, it becomes rare and therefore sought after! Remember when ‘Girl with Balloon’ was about to go under the hammer and during the auction got partly shredded? The work didn’t lose value, in fact it became far more desirable and consequently more valuable (@banksy my garage door awaits, amigo)😁✌️ <• Read more below •>

‘Dad fashion’ may sometimes be a little out there, on par with the dancing perhaps, but a Father's love never goes out of style!!! Here’s to all the amazing Dads and their many roles! 🦸‍♂️👔🕺🍻🥂 Happy Father's Day! 📸 @timmossholder #fathersday #happyfathersday #dadlife #fathers #fatherhood #dadsrock #myherodad #daddancing #dadfashion

If you're shy or squeamish, don't read on! You wake up to the realisation that you're in a rut, tired of the 9-5 and desperately searching for extra cash without additional stress... and perhaps, without your clothes. Have you ever pondered on how dull galleries would be without figurative art ...who wants to just look at sunflowers flowers, right?! This may be the perfect opportunity to step out of your comfort zone and embrace your body in all its glory! Yes my friends, I am talking about surrendering up your clothing to becoming a life model. You not only have the joy of spending hours in a really warm room, (worry-free bills), but in the company of those who appreciate human form in all it's shapes. Alternatively, if you prefer the security of clothing, while you note strangers remarking on your gorgeous ten digit extremities, then perhaps foot and hand modelling is for you! @mustartdmodels is a leading UK Model Agency emphasising those exposed bits. Art not only immortalises you for centuries, but those you meet in the creative world are genuinely passionate about their craft, only interested in developing beautiful pieces of work. That quizzical look they give from behind an easel is mere admiration of the beauty they see before them; visually translating all that wonderful information in just a few lines or strokes. So where's the money at? The current Register of Artist's Models recommend that the rate for Life Modelling begin at £20 per hour! Sit still for 3-4 hours, thrice weekly and that's not a bad bit on the side! And what about the squeamish 'part'! Once you’re done with life modelling, you might want to consider donating your body to science, where you can become a real Anatomical Specimen on display. I'll spare the details, but 'Plastination' is a process designed to preserve details of the human form for educational and instructional purposes. I suggest you look them up but not while you're having your tea! Love from my 'art, Tris�� #lifemodelling #artmodel #figuremodel #lifeart #commuterlife #diversify #entrepreneurship #moneyideas #passiveinvestment #passiveincomeideas #passiveincome #moneymotivation #thinkdifferent #stressless

Affiliate marketing is the opportunity to promote and align with products or services that you are genuinely passionate about. The content you create and associate with is not only authentic, but one you are proud to share with your prospective audience. Be it Airbnb, art or travel, your personal experiences and insights will help others make informed decisions about products and services that may apply to their lifestyles. The fun part: With a multitude of formats such as blogs, vlogs and podcasts to house your content, imaginative techniques will help you discover what resonates mostly with your followers. Promoting subject-matters relevant to your friends, family and the wider community in an informative, entertaining and engaging way, is so worth while. Simply put, it really pays to give back! The profit bit: As you begin to develop relationships with clients, your commissions will expand and with that, your reach. This can lead to promoting the products and services from new niches and industries. Remember, with ever skill acquired, the greater your freedoms and flexibility …growth opportunities become vast! Affiliate marketing’s networking potential far outweighs anything you will ever have on social platforms, organically! The feel good factor: This type of business framework mainly orientates around community. You connect with like-minded people who not only share your interests and passions, but collaborate with broader networks. You get ‘out there’, learning from other successes in the field, as you enjoy the many perks of communal support from those with similar aspirations. Finally, don’t just leave this as small-talk reserved for parties or BBQ gatherings; recommend and profit from products or services that you truly believe in! Express your convictions with creativity, aiming to connect with a community you otherwise would never see. Why not make it your purpose to not only benefit yourself, but others?! Wishing you profitable bonds, Tris

"Sell unused home items, online" may seem like I'm stating the obvious, and possibly showing my age, but just hear me out for a moment. I am going to highlight a few reasons why you ought to take this step to aid your wellbeing ...and it doesn't require a gym! Let's break it down... Firstly, the obvious reason - extra cash in the bank or in your hand - a no brainer! Here's the bit where you say, ‘Huh?’, but stick with me and it'll all make sense, I hope: Christmas trees are beautiful when first purchased. The excitement of glamming them up, Dean Martin crooning over a glass of sherry, as in, *my* sherry, is all so joyous! Come Boxing Day, that fern's annoying and taking up much needed space; you just can't wait to be rid of it (mine’s fake btw ...no needles, ever!) Never-mind, let's focus on the latter. You finally disrobe the tree with it’s lights and bling, drag it through the house, trapping pets, shoes and a rug along the way! With the tree stuffed in the back of your car, you repeatedly curse yourself AGAIN for ever buying a real one. As you drive into the tip, excitement builds. Maintaining composure, you lob the tree into recycling; a sense of freedom like nothing ever experienced suddenly overwhelms you. There's a spring in your step, a lightness to your breath. You phone your partner and tell them you love them before heading home. Giving new life to homely objects, signals a stable mindset. Reusing and recycling unused items can help reduce stress and anxiety. In a tiny nutshell, these preliminary actions for saving the earth is a win-win for mental and planetary health granting you guilt free longevity to pursue passive income goals. Selling online can be done from home, a coffee shop or the beach. You are no longer small and local, instead VAST, and on a multitude of platforms where clients and opportunities are broad. Decluttering is cool. You can even employ your nan or children, passing on key skills that have been abandoned by generations. Above all, it is kind to the wonderful earth we share space with. Bidding you success and clear air, Tris #funnyposts #declutter #garagesale #preloved #sellonline #sidehustle #springcleaning

According to recent reports, the CBDC wants to press ahead with their version of a digitised British pound! The Bank of England have said they plan to begin designing the CBDC, with the aim of it being in full circulation by 2030. This will be backed by the government of course. The CBDC have been tasked with designing the coins architecture and are assembling thirty experts to design the digital pound. TBH, I think they can save money on this and just use my design! 💥😁

Are you tiring of those random notes and recordings that were once destined to be The Next Big Thing? If like me you're happy to share your thought bubbles, then self publishing might just be the answer. Depending on your geography, technology and wifi access, we are so lucky to live in the times we do, as building ideas has never been so easy. Trust me, I know a few artists (the proper kind) and it takes them AGES to push that paint around to convey a story 😉😁 As a proud collector myself, their pain is well worth the effort but more on that approach another day. While on the creative path, have you ever considered writing? Everybody has a story after all! With Self-Publishing, there are no HUGE setup fees, fixed volume or agents blocking that light at the end of the tunnel. You are simply free to just be; to share your voice in print. In short, nothing is stopping you from becoming the next JK Rowling! Without these obstacles, your profit margins are maximised with every book that is sold! We know there’s no such thing as a free lunch. How you choose to write, be it in coffee shops, the beach, sofa or in bed; you will be converting and marketing your passion into leather bound words for bibliomaniacs, forever. Authors pour their hearts and souls out into writing; it is therefore important they also ‘authorise’ the decisions and direction throughout the entire process. Self-Publishing grants that bespoke approach, especially if you’re a sucker for detail. Today’s technology has reach; output is at such high quality that you would be hard pressed (did you see what I did there😁) to tell the difference from those sold in the high street shops …you even get an ISBN too! Building a passive stream of income takes work and we are well versed on that notion. However, t’is better you turn those loose notes into loose change, rather than leave them covered under a pile. Why wait? Happy writing. May the journey enlighten, Tris #selfpublish #selfpublishing #selfpublished #indieauthor #authorlife #authorscommunity #writingadvice #mindsetmatters #diversify #passiveinvesting #passiveincomeonline #passiveincome #dailycommute #juststart #lifechanges

You’re back and have come to realise that these passive tips are quite fun! Stick around for plenty more smiles and ideas. From my previous post, you’ve no doubt cashed in on your most valuable URLs purchased moons ago that now see you flush! Being the ever wise investor, knowing money left in a bank just rots away, you’re left thinking, where to next? A good step before parting with your reserves is to always celebrate wins, however humble; and what better way to do so than with fine wine! While ‘sipping’ away on your second bottle of Mateus, you ponder softly, in the wobbly room, the stability of mushed fruit; it’s durability throughout the centuries in both good and bad periods! Yes, even in the most depressing of times, people are still enjoying fermented grapes! In 2023 global revenue in the wine market totalled US$333bn with an expected compound annual growth rate of 5.52% between 2023-2027 (Data: Statista) Some say, it is good for the heart, but I’m thinking it may work wonders for a portfolio also. Did you know that investments in fine wine are not only low in volatility, but accordingly, has outperformed traditional markets such as stocks during the Dotcom Bubble, in the collapse of 2008 and during the COVID-19 recession (Data: Liv-ex, the global marketplace in the wine trade)? DFTS, you’ve tickled my taste buds; so where do I get started?
One example is @vinxwineinvestment This company of human experts (AI can’t taste a good red…yet!) source and sniff out collections they feel show a strong hint of appreciation in value over a holding period. What a tasty way to diversify your investments! Nb: I am not in anyway affiliated with Vin-X. I’m just hoping they will recognise the mention and send me through a prime vintage. 😉🍷🍇 Wishing you continued success. Cheers and good health, Tris #finewine #passion #dailycommute #commuterlife #luxurystyle #diversify #passiveincome #passiveinvesting #financegoals #personalfinance #investment #portfolios #passiveincomestream #moneyideas #lifegoals

You do know what the real meaning of a URL is, right??? If you said Uniform Resource Locators, then I’m afraid you’re wrong - It’s Unique Revenue Leads!😁 Here’s the scenario; you’re rummaging through the attic and discover a painting, or sketch, stored away from bygone years. You begin to wonder, as most purveyors of fine-finds would, whether it has perhaps appreciated in value?! It could be a Degas, or better still, a knackered old beer coaster you had picked up in your student days that was tagged by some party animal named Banksy…. It was either him or I was very, VERY drunk😉 - none-the-less you hurry to your next port of call, a valuation! There are plenty of online platforms that will value your find in just a few clicks and some that will do so happily in person …either way, excitement builds. So what has all this got to do with a URL? Have you ever thought (certain you do), about the value of the humble URL? Maybe during the early days of the World Wide Web you bought one, or even a few, with plans to launch THE NEXT BIG THING ...just wish I’d never stopped my renewal payments on Amazon.com 😉😁 Did you know that Elon Musk acquired Tesla.com for $11m from its previous owner, not a bad markup for just a few, ‘Add to Basket’ clicks! As with some investment portfolios, why not consider diversifying and buying a few of these URLs to store them away for a rainy day? Your choice of domain name could be the the next big thing! So how do you find out the worth or your already, or soon-to-be, purchased domain names? A great place to start is GoDaddy.com under the Domain Value Appraisal section; it’s free too! (Just for the record, @godaddy do not sponsor me, nor buy me coffee; c’mon guys it’s a free plug here!) All my web related dealings are with a once owned British company, @123reg.uk who some years ago were acquired by GoDaddy… GoFigure!
 Did you guess the price tag correctly for voice.com? ….$30 Million!!! Wishing you every success, to whoever wishes and does, Tris

Active vs Passive 🤔 Earning the passive way Many of us living the daily grind recognise the importance of job security, bills, family etc, you know, all the serious stuff; the stuff that never goes away, once you become a proper grown up! For the majority, you and I (the 99.9%), we have not the time nor the gumption to step away from active earnings, into a wholly passive one. And my advice is, you should not! However, and thankfully so, we are living in an era where there are plenty of options. Options that can slot nicely into our very busy lives. What we do not have, nor will ever get back is TIME! Freelancers know this well; Time is the most valuable of all our commodities, far more than physical cash. Time cannot be banked! When it’s gone, it’s gone. Time should our number one priority, therefore manage it well. Find a way to attach passive earnings to your already busy and active day-to-day needs. Passive income is not easy in its infancy, nor will it quickly make your life any easier, nevertheless once the ball gets rolling, you will be pleased you made that step. Extra freedoms using extra returns. It may just be a coffee, a meal-deal for the kids, whatever; but it is money earned that you never went looking for. Fruit reaped when you least expected it. Begin with projects that you enjoy, that way the initial stages, which are tricky to motivate, will not have you bored or lacking in enthusiasm. I followed my passions in antiques, rentals and cryptos to supplement the extra additions in my life. Wherever your passions and hobbies lie, don’t just park it at home for a rainy day, turn it into fruit, or in my case, coffee and weekends away!!! There are so many options out there but here are a few to consider: Coaching, art, drop-shipping, stock photos, self publishing or affiliate marketing.
