Thank you for being so unapologetically you. Because of the advice and wisdom that you offer I have been able to cut my families grocery budget by more than half, and we have began a strict budget that we follow 95% of the time. And also has began taking portions of each paycheck and putting it into our savings account to have a nice cushion to fall on. Thank you so much
Love that!
You two are so funny. Oh who hasn't done a side hustle. I worked on a political campaign for $3.50 hour. The guy got elected and was so bad I worked on his opponents campaign 4 years later for free. Worked at a car wash until my mother found out. 14 years old busted. But I loved to wash cars which paid off later. Was laid off in 1970 wiping my car off man asked if I washed cars. My three year old said we don't have any money for hamburgers. I confessed I was out of work. Next day man had 4 friends lined up and paid me $10 a car. Kept us in groceries. Love hearing all your hustle experiences. Glad we all made it. Watching from Texas, Donna
I've done wedding cakes, taught sewing classes to kids in my home, babysat, VIPkid teaching English to kids in China, secret shopping, and a little sewing here and there. The babysitting only made like $5 a day, but at the time I also found a great program to go back to college through my church, which ended up costing about $5 a day! So that little before and after school babysitting job literally put me through college! Don't knock the side hustle folks. If you are willing to work, and be creative, you will find ways!
I loved this video cause I really got to see more of Dave’s personality. He doesn’t normally say much. After this video I can see why you two are such a good couple, you really compliment each other perfectly 😀
You two are so inspiring. I can really tell that you guys love each other a lot. I'm sure your devotion to eachother and to your kids helped y'all pull through the tough times. Not everyone is as lucky to have such a partner in life or strong enough to put in the work to build and maintain such a relationship. Wishing you good fortune and more happy times ahead
Always enjoy hearing about all your adventures! I started working at 11/12 babysitting, then 13 ish I was washing dishes at my sister in-laws family restaurant, became a CNA at 15, switched and became a CDA (dentistry) at 16. Joined the army at 17 and served as a combat medic for 8 years. Went to college while i worked for 4 different dentists. Stayed in dentistry for 31 years. Owned many small businesses both brick and mortar and online selling when eBay was good. Became disabled 4.5 years ago but while doing home decluttering, mask making, etc during the RONA shut down and selling everything not tied down online and marketplace, I still do my best trying to sell misc.. for extra cash cuz we all know how difficult it is to live on SS. Oh... and I SO miss being able to extreme coupon!! I lived off all the free stuff back then from mega planning with the double coupons.
Love your realistic views on balancing family time and money goals and that you don't glamorize all the work and time that went into getting to where you are now. My brother has a side hustle helping senior citizens with technology needs. He doesn't charge much and they are so thankful to have someone they trust available to come to their home about what we consider small things that can be confusing for the older generation like email questions, setting up a new streaming service or setting up a show to record on DVR, installing a Ring doorbell, setting up a new tablet that was gifted to them, questions about printers, etc.
I love your stories of a hustle! When my husband lost his job and took a lower paying job (in a food freezer) to slow down the "bleeding" I was able to pick up so many jobs as a teacher. I ran a lab in the morning before school, I sponsored a club after school, I did course recovery and taught a 6th period in place of planning. That bumped me up by $8000 that year and saved us. We had 2 girls in college and we just DID IT! I love your story of success and what it REALLY takes to be successful. HARD WORK
I love this channel!! I keep coming back because you don't exaggerate. You tell us the good, the bad and the ugly! I find it very refreshing. Thanks for that.
Another side hustle people can look into is being a substitute worker at a school…they dont just need sub teachers but also cooks, janitors, aides, bus drivers, secretaries…some of these need licenses for but some dont…i know our school district is SCREAMING for all subs right now…worth looking into
When I was growing up, we cleaned office buildings as a family for decades. It gave us the money for fun stuff, vacations, sports, going out to eat/movies. It's A LOT of work, just fyi...but pays well and it's usually nights/weekends.
I am a pet sitter as a side job, easiest job ever and so enjoyable for an animal lover.
Love this! You and your hubby have the best chemistry! When my son was little I worked 3 job. Cleaned rooms at a nearby resort, part time at an office, and I cleaned a couple of houses. The last 4 years I worked a part time job at my local library to help supplement my full time job with the State of MO. Now down to 1 job, but always prepared for a side hustle if needed!💗💗
CONGRATULATIONS on your “overnight success” that took YEARS of hard work, blood, sweat and tears!! 😉
Thank you!
Oh my goodness, y'all are so funny. I love the Elaine "Get out" that Dave did. I'm at work trying to sneak watch and Dave made me laugh a little too loudly. I had to show my boss what was so funny.!!! Anyway, thanks for the ideas and the giggles. Have a great day!
Love that!
You mentioned AUSTIN, TX ...... That's where I live. ATX is in the house! 👍🏾👍🏾🤭 Love your videos.
I’ve been binging your videos lately while cooking and cleaning. Love your real life pantry organizing tips. You motivate me to get so much done. I’ve prepped so many meals with you now, I feel like we’re friends. 😂
I find it hilarious that you say how easy it is to do you tube. I cannot figure out the editing at! So I keep throwing up what I know are sub par videos and keep plugging along. I have done several of those same side hustles. 😎
I love your honesty with how little some hustles made. I remember as a kid in the 80s my parents would deliver telephone books, well, they drove and my sister and I ran them up to the houses. I don't recall what they got paid for it, but I remember they paid us a quarter per book we delivered (that wasn't much to me, but my sister who was around 8 when they stopped thought it was the greatest, I knew our situation and didn't mind helping them with the few weeks because while it was tedious work, it only took a few Saturdays and it helped our family a lot.
When i was a kid i delivered the neighborhood newsletter. Sounds about like your doorknob flyer gig. The difference was that i was like 11 so that was big money for me.
We are starting a UA-cam channel! You guys have been inspiring and motivating in our debt free journey, so thank you!!
I just had an old friend make fun of me the other night for how many side hustle jobs I’ve had, I’m 51 years young and will continue my side hustles as long as I can! I love learning and conquering new things. No judgement to those that choose to stay somewhere 20-30 years and do only that job but it’s just not for me. Keep up the great videos and side hustles y’all!
C, YOU ARE A TROOPER! Most wives would have thrown in the towel and found a man with money. I've done alot of these things also. Props to us lol. We love our man!! 😍
Always love when you post! Enjoyed this!
Happy Monday! Thanks for the info. You make my day
I love you two! Thanks for sharing your lives with us!
Yall are funny! That's interesting. Thank you Christina and Dave!
This reminds me so much of how we grew up. My dad was a teacher and with five kids it wasn't gonna cut it. So mom and he had so many side hustles, that worked their way into being family hustles! From sewing piece work, to cleaning commercial complexes at night, to babysitting, to stitching needle point samples for needle point companies, cut hair, taught piano lessons, substitute teach, etc. Looking back it was sort of fun, always something interesting going on, but at the time it was tedious, and I have no idea when my parents even slept.
The easiest side hustle I did while in college was only a twice yearly gig but it was being a proctor for sat and act testing. Super easy and you got a couple hundred dollars to just sit and time tests.
Hey, you two are Bonkers. I work full time for uk government, I buy & sell electronics plus I have recently applied to work for domino's. Great video guys.😁
The first week of the year we started a side hustle, selling from-scratch sack lunches to some of my husband's co-workers.
Christine, I love your videos. Found them about 5 months ago and I’m hooked! Lol keep ‘em’ comin! 🤗
I love anything you two do together.
You guys are so inspiring! God bless u guys!
Wow, I definitely need to try a lot of these hustles out on my own channel. Thanks for the insight and keep up the awesome work!!
Love it!! Great video ❤️☺️ You guys are too fun!
You are such a great, supportive couple! Always a treat to get Dave's input as well.
The two of you together are hysterical. thanks for the great video.
Can't wait to watch this!
You guys are amazing! Thank you for sharing!
You two hustling monsters are precious. Thanks for being real ,playing, and making life so fun!!
I love you two. You are so entertaining but at the same time getting the point across.
Omfg!! Best video ever. I'm55 and love hearing about other folks similar circumstances. Ty!!
Dude you guys are so fun. I love how in sync and in love you guys are
My husband and I enjoy watching your vids.
You're just being you....and we love it.
Our fav thing is when you say "doll hairs".😂🤣
We appreciate the interesting side hussle low down! Lol.
Love this!!!
Omg, I had to laugh so hard when you mentioned your side hustle to pay for blinds. I also had a side hustle to pay for blinds in my new home. I delivered pizza. I was always paid in cash (small bills). So when the guy would come out to hang each blind, I would hand him a large roll of $5’s and $1’s. I think he thought I was a stripper or something.
I did mystery shopping before. I would suggest it to anyone. You just have to make sure that you pick a good company to work for
What a fun video! Crazy to think about all the things you both did.
Enjoyed this history so much!!!! Y’all rock! Also, we want to hear Dave speaking Spanish!!
You guys are great together ! You should have him cook a bit and video, that would be a blast. You both look happy.
Guys This is an absolutely fantastic wonderful video! Reinforces all of the times When I spent time Doing various things And ended up Really enjoying the time. I did not make a lot of money- But it was wonderful time
spent And Reinforcement of my worth. I hear this coming through loud and clear In your video... By the way I enjoy all of your videos!
This was quite entertaining. 😁
Made me remember all the odd jobs I've had in the past. I was 12 when I started my first job as the nursery worker during church counseling in the evenings (1998). It paid $14 for 2 hours and 5-6 kids on my own! Thinking back they didn't pay me enough but must have really trusted my abilities!! 😆
I babysat, still do crafts, resell thrift finds, minimize our spending.. every little bit helps. You guys are such a beautiful team. 🤸♂️🤸♀️
We delivered phone books but that contract was given to post office in recent years! My husband has done repair jobs for people and they pay with meals! Not all side hustles make cash but when the trade helps both sides then perfect! Single moms have needed something fixed and my husband fixed it and she would cook supper for everyone. My kids would play with her kids so they were occupied and for one mother her kids would eat better when my kids visited so it was win win win win lol!
My absolute favorite UA-camr!! 💓 You got my family through the pandemic and have reignited my love for cooking! Thank you for being you
Yay! Thank you!
Thank you for making this so "real life"... so many people are looking at get rich quick again or instant gratification, this really makes me feel like i am doing something right :)
I love LOVE that no matter how small the income was, you were not above it to make your dream come to reality!
Hahahaha! I am looking at my computer looking at you saying same same...our first home, we had one little girl & a boy on the way & a brand new home with one blind! Hahahahaha! Tears are in my eyes! The side hustles to our Military life have kept us going! Good for you!!! Budgeting & making things work is also our side hustle. We are almost out of debt (our home we are living in) we have on kid who made it through High School, Got her Assosciates in College, went on & got a Bachelor's, then the Pandemic hit & she decided to go for her Master's. (All by 21!!!) Our other in a Junior in U of A. We have another son who just started High School! We are almost there! You are AWESOME!!!! Keeping it real!!
Great job. At least you guys worked your butts off. 👍
You guys are great examples!
You two are so cute together! I love this! The editing and graphics are fun too. I’ll go check out your second channel(s) ! Happy 2022!
Love this thank you. Great timing. 👍
Perfect!
This video is awesome.. gave me the puch to keep going thank you both
I just love seeing your old family photos :-)
Same!
Awesome video!🤗
This was so funny! I enjoyed this thoroughly.
Keep up the awesome videos 💕
I love your videos. I enjoy but don't need the big meal prep info at this stage of life. I was able to retire 5+ years ago at 60 (with a little employer push of an early retirement buyout). However, I wasn't ready to be 'done'. Husband and I both retired in the same year. We had the resources but hubby is a homebody. So I got a side hustle with my financial advisor's company as a vacation/sick day cover person. I have the people contact I crave, the limited hours I desire (I can accept or reject any requests), I have variety (I have opened my schedule to offices within about 30 miles (8 offices). Best side hustle ever....for me. Thanks for the info you share.
Seeing the pictures when you were talking about extreme couponing makes me miss Propel so much!! I'm not a fan of artificial sweeteners so can't do the zero version but I used to LOVE Propel!!
You guys are so darn cute and relatable. ...love your positivity.
OMG how funny, I was couponing and selling my extras too. It was a pretty good hustle. When we started staying home and shelves became bare, I stopped.
I've been wanting to start a UA-cam channel, but I'm scared. I know I shouldn't be, but it's intimidating. I am trying to muster up the courage. It would be related to cooking and how I do things in Texas. My biggest fear is looking stupid and failing.. anyway thanks for all your tips and just maybe y'all will see my channel in the near future.
Same here, I also don’t have any knowledge about editing. Also, is there content not being covered?
Thanks for a great video 👌🙌great way to start my week for sure 👍👌
Glad you enjoyed it
This is a really funny video, love it! You can't knock the hustle!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I am SO impressed. I’m really impressed that your marriage lasted thru all that.
Y"all are so cute! Thanks for the vids!
Between my husband and I we have done a few side jobs. That’s how we got through the 4 times I was laid off in two years. We cleaned eviction rentals and I can say a few should have been bulldozed, so disgusting. My husband did the bathrooms and refrigerators because I couldn’t handle it. We mowed lawns, painted houses and babysat. I knew a lot of people who couldn’t believe we would do extra work because it was a lot of work and below them. But now we are older and life has treated us well. Hard work eventually pays off.
After graduating college beside our actual careers that matched our degrees, I did: tutor, Toys 'R Us, taxes, receptionist, and daycare/babysitting. My husband did: server at Garfield's, insurance sales/investments, newspaper delivery, phone book delivery, pizza dilvery, and customer service rep. You do what you got to do:-).
You two are very cute together and an inspiration. Hard workers, both of you.
Hi Christine, Happy Monday !
Morning!
I love you guys! I planning to start my youtube channel this year prolly q2 because need to focus on 1 important large task at a time or my brain implodes
Love your videos
So nice to see people's thoughts and fails on things. At lest we know your human!!!!
Love your channel
Lol…that clip about 5:40. 😆 I think it’s from one of my favorite Christmas movies.
Great video
Couponing in its heyday was a gold mine. It's how I put in a lot of food storage and fed my family when my hubby was unemployed or underemployed which happened often when we had four kids at home. I also worked for 9 years for a national online couponing website and made good money to supplement my hubby's income.
Editing to add: Love the While You Were Sleeping clip! 🤣
That is awesome!
Yall crack me up!!
My husband is at weekends act model 😁 Good pay!
I used to change horses blankets when I was at the barn. It was a dollar a blanket l,
Took a bit of time but I’d do 30 of them in an hour in those weird seasons where horses need blanket changes before being turned in. Yeah, I did that 5x a week. Not a bad side hustle considering I was already there anyways
In Norway we don’t get paid for donating blood or plasma, we volunteer for it. My husband works full time for a shipping company and I work part time as a translator. I have been through many jobs til I finally found translating, and I love it! Great video!
You don’t get paid for donating blood in the US, but sometimes where I live (Alaska) they’ll give you a reward like a T-shirt, mug, or gift card. Unfortunately, the U.S. is in MAJOR need for blood donations right now. So if anyone sees this comment - please figure out if you are eligible to donate!!! 1 in 7 hospital patients need blood, and 1 donation can save 3 lives. My brother is a medical lab technician at our local hospital and wasn’t able to give blood to someone who needed it today because there simply wasn’t any of his blood type available.
in japan, we don’t get paid but do get ice cream and doughnuts for blood donations! maybe a pen or sth if you’re lucky. I translate too:)
Lots of hustle!
You both have busted your guts to get to where you are today x
I have been thinking of trying to make a side income , just knowing the best root to take x
Christine! Your babysitting stories had me laughing because no matter what age, what degrees I've earned, where I was living, etc. I have ALWAYS, ALWAYS gone back to babysitting 😂I started babysitting when I was 14.. went to college for teaching. Went BACK to college for a science degree.. babysitting in between. Well, I'm 30 years old now and quit my 9-5 job a year ago. All last summer I was babysitting a great kid and having an awesome time -- all for $30/hr! Babysitting is where it's at! With two bachelor's degrees, I tell everyone I'm a professional babysitter and honestly could not be happier.
You guys make me laugh! Enjoyed you both trying to remember all the side jobs you’ve done and especially if you got paid for doing it! 😆. Thanks for the ideas though.
I've had a couple odd side hustles. Working as a proctor for state school testing was a good one, although shushing kids who's names you don't know is tiresome. Writing lessons for homeschool curriculum was fun and I was paid $50 per lesson.
My side hustles included making candles with custom images/photos on them about 5 years ago, and now I'm freelancing as a resume writer!
First, I'm loving Dave's facial hair. LOVE. I am just starting off my debt paying journey. I've tried the online surveys and I agree 100%. A total waste of time. I've just started donating plasma. They have a new donor special going on and I've made $180 this week! I'm using it for groceries, too. And I've recently started a UA-cam channel. I'm up to 25 subscribers. 🤣 😭
You guys are awesome
grading tests sounds like a pretty cool side hustle. I should try to see how I can get that gig!
Ok I remember the story about the Texas cheerleaders and watched the movie. Crazy!!
Lol. 'Maybe don't book a cruise' Wonder if anybody else picked up on that. Y'all are funny.
