Should you consider holding multiple jobs?

Holding multiple jobs has more benefits than you might have realized! 

While this endeavor might seem daunting to many it is worthwhile to consider the numerous benefits both personal and financial.

Working another job most often involves taking on an additional job that is lower commitment and can be balanced with your current workload. Some great options for flexible side jobs include Uber and Lyft drivers, pet watching, and 

On a personal and social level, having another job diversifies your network and expands your social circle. You will meet new people and be exposed to a wider range of individuals all of whom each have their own unique experiences and perspectives. The consistency of holding one job for a long period at a time can often leave individuals feeling bored and stuck. Having a flexible, lower commitment side job will help make the monotony out of your schedule and keep you on your toes. By continuing to challenge yourself and explore new opportunities you may even stumble upon a new hobby, passion, or career path! 

On a financial level, this extra side job will bring in another flow of cash that can be used for long term savings, paying off debts, travel, etc. Furthermore, as we have seen in recent months, the economy is unpredictable and jobs are not guaranteed. By having a backup option for income, you are greater protected during unpredictable circumstances like economic downfalls, layoffs, or any other number of reasons that might interfere with your employment status at a certain company.

Overall, while having a side job might not be for everyone it's definitely a great option if you can handle a little more in your schedule.
