The Silver Side Hustle guides you down an engaging path leading to a rewarding future. It is part of a journey. It's a guidebook to starting something new. A side gig does not replace anything. It adds value to your life. It takes work but is worthwhile. It builds something when once there was nothing. It is a way to stay healthy, engaged, and busy doing useful things. It might make you money – perhaps even lots – but more importantly, it brings the rest of your life full circle. A side project gives you a chance to dig deeply into your strengths and passion, so you can concentrate on self-fulfillment.
And here's the other thing. If a side project is not in your future, you owe it to yourself to be sure. You can't make an informed decision until you know what, exactly, is involved. And this book covers everything you need to know. Rule a Side Hustle in or out but do it right - and do it now. Before you get much older.
