Why Do you need an extra $100 a day, extra $100 a week, or even an extra $100 a month?
Benefits of making an extra $100
- Paying off debt quicker
- Saving for a specific treat/ trip/ etc.
- Long term savings
- Paying down your mortgage
- Help you leave a job that you really hate
- Help you become financially free sooner.
- Give you more income streams.
Earning an extra $100 a day can be potentially life changing. Basically it allows you to earn as much as $3000 a month, which brings you more choices for how you want to spend your time.
Some of these options might need to be combined to achieve $100 a day. For example you may not make $100 a day from renting out your car on Turo, but maybe if you rent your car out on Turo and a room on Airbnb you might achieve that number.
Get a raise or promotion:
Usually quickest way and sometimes the easiest is to ask for a raise with your current employer. They may not give it to you immediately, but may say if you do XYZ this year then we can give you one or talk about a promotion, etc.
Rent Your Car out on Turo:
Turo is the Airbnb for cars. Do you have a car that you don’t use all the time? Rent it out on Turo. Or maybe you buy a car just to rent it out.
Average car listing on Turo makes $720 a month

Rent a room on Airbnb
Honestly I think this is one of the best ways to make some side income. If you have a spare bedroom, a basement apartment, or even entire house, condo, apartment, etc. I think renting it out on Airbnb is great. Depending on your property and location there is a lot of money to be made. I would though check with your city on the short term rental regulations before getting started.
The average Airbnb host makes $800-1,000 a month (some make up to $10,000 per month)
Cash back from CC
This one is tricky. A lot of people don’t like credit cards or preach about not using them. If you are careful/smart about using them there are a lot of benefits to be had. It can be cash back, sky miles, hotel points, etc. These can be goods ways to put money towards savings or help you pay for that vacation you want to take.
Some of the credit cards that I suggest with some great rewards/cash back options:
Note: The key with this method is paying your monthly statement off in full each month to avoid paying interest. We don’t recommend spending money if you can’t afford it.
