Lyft is a great way to make money, meet cool people, and see the city. You are in control of when you work, which is the perfect side hustle. Some people drive Lyft to pay off debts, or save up for vacations. Some drive just to supplement between jobs, or to pay off a car. With the Holidays around the corner, it can be frustrating to find a way to make the extra income without over committing to a second jobs schedule. Driving for Lyft is a remedy for that. This is not a craigslist gimmic. I just started driving on the side this past weekend, and have pulled in $600 in extra money in just 22 hours on the road. 6 hours Friday night, 10 hours on Saturday, and 6 hours on Sunday. I had time to stop and visit with friends when I chose to. I've never had a job with thist kind of freedom.
