I'm just curious. I'm an accountant and I umpire baseball as a second gig. I made $500 last weekend umpiring.

It helps pay for the extras for my family. We can make it on my base salary, but the extra money comes in handy for extra/unexpected costs - like dental bills, fixing the car after I was rear-ended by an uninsured, unlicensed motorist, pay for my son's baseball events, etc.

Not necessarily a 2nd job. But the hubs and I have our own small business and we call it side jobs. It's paid for 3 sets of braces, it's paid for softball/baseball tourney fees, uniforms for select teams, traveling to tourneys, college tuition. Used cars for our kids' first cars, etc.

Big Daddy, you're just like us. The common man.

Brought our kids up the same way. My 23 yr old daughter has had 2 jobs since high school, not because she has too, but because she likes to do extra things...requires extra money.

Long time, no see BD!

Have a great day!

Re: How many people work a second or third job? And what do you do?
I'm an accountant too! My hubs and my boys do the manual labor, I keep the books! Both of my boys have full time jobs, so even by working for their dad on the weekend, is their 2nd Job as well. I help them learn to make invoices, staple pymt ck stub to the invoice submitted, keep track of expenses, etc. One day, my kids will be able to take over our business and keep it as their 2nd side jobs. My daughter does accounting too! So it's an all-in-one perfect situation.

I was thinking about getting a second job, but the pay would not be worth it. It would be best to do overtime pay, on my current salary, to get extra money....

Re: How many people work a second or third job? And what do you do?
I'm currently 56 years-old, and my second job as a semi-pro musician has been the same since I was 16. However, I cut way back on this extra work for many years, in order to be able to spend lots of time with my children when they were little. (It remains as one of the best decisions I ever made)

However, when my kids were teenagers, I ramped up the moonlighting considerably. I had some years in which I played over 100 gigs annually, while continuing to work a full-time day job. While I'm thoroughly worn-out (and burnt-out) from doing it, I'm glad for the result. It helped pay for both of my daughters orthodontic work, vehicles, college educations, and weddings.

These days, it's time to give what remains of my hearing a rest. I'm hoping to turn my hobby of designing and building useful things into my new second job.

Yep, my 20 year old works two jobs. One in College Station and comes back to Houston every couple of weekends to umpire and make some extra cash. My 18 year old is working at a BBQ restaurant and the 14 yr old is ready to start umping next year.

My wife has a seasonal mum business on the side too. So, in the fall, she's blowing and going cranking out mums for the local high school homecoming dances.

Makes me smile.
