This Guy Made $11,357 in One Month Shoveling Snow in Chicago
What simple problem can you solve?
I’m a big fan of the gig economy. Uber, DoorDash, Upwork, Fiverr, Thumbtack, Takl, TaskRabbit… I’m sure there are at least 28 other gig platforms that I’m unaware of.
The opportunities to help people with small projects are limitless. And you can work as much or as little as you want. You can work from home, a coffee shop, or find in-person gigs like raking leaves, car detailing, shoveling snow, or assembling furniture.
You can earn some extra cash helping people with almost anything.
One man in Chicago discovered that he could build an entire business shoveling snow.
In 2021, Giovanny earned $78,000+ doing snow removal tasks. On his TaskRabbit profile, he says he’s America’s #1 snow removal Tasker. According to Business Insider, Giovanny earned $11,357 in one month, charging $60/hour for snow removal.
I won’t be doing snow removal anytime soon. I live in San Diego, and it’s 81° here in mid-February. There’s a heat advisory right now. But, I grew up in upstate New York, so I know all about shoveling snow.
Whenever there’s a winter storm, people need the snow moved. Sometimes you can’t even open your front door if the snow piled up…
