It's that time of year again — Thanksgiving! This summer, we caught part of the Rubik's Cube World Championships in Seattle. The fastest solvers in the world can solve a 3x3 cube in under 5 seconds.

And nothing gets me more excited than finding cool, creative ways to make extra money and sharing them with you. This is our 9th annual Thanksgiving tradition — a roundup of 10 of the most interesting and inspiring side hustles that crossed my desk this year. We've got product businesses, service businesses, and content businesses. Something for everyone in what's always one of my favorite episodes to put together.

Let me tell you about the side hustle I wouldn't have believed if I hadn't seen it myself. Jeff Rose from Good Financial Sense is earning over $1,000 per day by posting content on Facebook. And a lot of it is just screenshots of other people's tweets. He cracked the code of Facebook's content monetization program, where the platform pays creators to keep users engaged. The more time you spend scrolling, the more advertising dollars Facebook makes — and they're sharing that revenue with content creators like Jeff. In this episode, Jeff pulls back the curtain on exactly how he built this income stream in less than a year, working just a few hours per week. Tune in to Episode 706 of the Side Hustle Show to learn: How Jeff accidentally stumbled upon this opportunity and made $137 from his first viral post Setting up Facebook monetization and getting invited to the program Where to find content ideas and what performs best The tools Jeff uses to schedule a week's worth of posts in just a few hours Full Show Notes: $1,000 a Day Posting on Facebook New to the Show?

What if you could turn a teenage sports annoyance into a $100k business while juggling school, sports, and everything else that comes with being 15? Harrison Nott has done exactly that. Starting at just 13 years old, Harrison built CoolTowel into a business projected to hit £100,000 (about $130,000) in revenue this summer alone. The spark came from a simple problem: getting overheated and uncomfortable while playing squash. Harrison saw an opportunity in the cooling towel market that barely existed 3 years ago.
