If you think it is not possible to make money in retirement, think again. You can supplement your income in several creative ways to make the most of your retirement. Here are some original ideas for making more money in retirement.

1. Rent a space in your house

Geeko – Le Soir

Earn money by renting space in your home on Airbnb. This is an excellent example of a shared-stock economy and this company currently has hosted in 192 countries. You can rent a room or your entire house by the night, week or month. Enjoy the next event organized by your city!

2. Consider praising your wisdom

Sixty and Me

Here is a way to share two of your best attributes: your love and wisdom. You can upload a profile on the Rent a Grandma website and start accepting family jobs for child care and elder care. You can also offer your tutoring services or be a personal assistant.

You negotiate work responsibilities and payment directly with families. You can even start a franchise in your region – anywhere in the world.

3. Sell your photos

Dream Interpretation

You may already be a good step ahead of this idea. If you have digital photos on your computer, why not see if you can sell some of them? There are many archive photo sites where you can submit photos.

4. Get paid to write

It is not necessary to be a novelist to write a copy. Turn your words into cash. It is possible to do this on a variety of copywriting websites such as London Brokers, Copify or Indeed. London Brokers is an excellent learning-by-doing opportunity. They have easy to follow tutorials, live support, many topics to choose from, and they pay twice a week into your PayPal account. The faster and more efficient you are, the more you get paid!

You can also use Upwork to search for editing, writing, and other creative work.

5. Sell handmade products online

L’Atelier Canson

Join the microenterprise movement with your own store on Etsy. We love Etsy because it empowers creative people who want to be entrepreneurs by providing them with a platform to work on.

6. Sell customized products online

If your friends are amazed by your sense of humor, you can turn it into cash at Café Press or Zazzle. Open a store, download images, illustrations, graphics or text, choose the products to present and get paid. If you think about it and develop a niche, you will stand out.

7. Try tutoring

International students who need mentoring in specific subjects meet with independent tutors in virtual sessions. You need to know the subject you want to teach, but you don’t necessarily need a diploma – although they like it too.

8. Consider blogging

Can we really make money by blogging? Yes! Many people earn their living only by blogging.

In general, you don’t earn money overnight; it takes a lot of time. However, if you choose a topic you like to talk about, can we really call it “work”?

9. Selling articles on eBay

América Retail

eBay is not only about getting rid of things that are lying around in the garage, basement or attic. Experts agree that you should try the service as a buyer before you start trying to sell so that you understand a little bit about how the site works.

Once you have started, you may find that this is the ideal place to market your products or services. You can even open your own eBay store.

10. Try animal care

Medical News Today

If you want to turn your love of pets into a viable business, Pet Sitters International offers a free ebook entitled, 5 Must-Do Steps to Starting A Successful Pet-Sitting Business, which provides a good starting point for earning a living keeping animals.

11. Sell your skills online

Simple Wikipedia

Fiverr is a fun and very energetic website where you can make money quickly with the right idea. Would you pay $5 for someone to promote your business in a goblin costume, sing happy birthday on a tropical beach or cook pancakes dressed as a clown? From real value to pure madness, people make money by selling their skills online. Which skill could you sell for $5?

12. Become a local guide

Vinper Tour

Take your unique perceptions, combine them with your knowledge of your community and earn money as a local guide on Vayable.

Make your visit a thematic tour like the typical cafés of the region, introduce the district with a “best of” guided tour or dig deep to find the hidden gems that no one else but you would like to present. Whatever you do, have fun when you present your part of the country!

13. Rent your parking space

Plani-Paysage

You may have a parking space that can accommodate two cars, but only one car. Why not transform empty space into continuous income through sites like Parking Panda (in some American cities)? You register your free parking space with the site and they take care of the rest. When your space is rented, they keep a small percentage of your income and send you the rest.

14. Rent your car

Les Numériques

Did you know that you can make money by renting your property? Websites like Getaround and RelayRides make it easier.

Why pay to park your car at the airport the next time you fly? Instead, Getaround will rent your car, clean it and take care of it. They also have a million-dollar insurance policy. RelayRides allows you to carpool by the hour or by the day.

15. Get paid for online surveys

Cash Crate is an excellent site for paid surveys. Testing new free products and services, participating in consumer surveys and recommending others can earn you money. You can also earn money on your own online purchases, and win prizes to socialize and play games. However, we suggest this site because of its active community (members exchange tips and ideas) and its transparency.
