What are the weirdest ways you’ve made money?

With the price or rent and utilities skyrocketing, it’s the perfect time for a side hustle. I decided to ask my community for some of the weirdest ways they’ve topped up their income and they did not disappoint.

Some of the responses were some fairly standard one-offs like getting gift cards in return for being a research test subject or testing video games, others hosted or promoted club parties once upon a time, but the top answers may shock you:

"I Worked as a mad scientist for about a year It was like a teaching job but much more fun and interesting. Also stressful, dry ice is cool but keeping a room full of kids from touching it is kind of tough"
