A month ago, I asked readers to share their stories about how they have created multiple diversified income streams by choice.
15 readers shared their stories in the comments and I really enjoyed hearing what others were doing. I am sure you will too, so I decided to provide some highlights and boil down each story into a strategy-type.
Hopefully it gets your creative juices flowing, as it did mine.
The Best of Both Worlds Strategy:
Rita quit her corporate job, but maintained much of the same clientelle on her own. Her income was roughly the same on much less hours. Rita didnt mention this, but this is also a great way to diversify employers (instead of having one employer, she has a number of clients, distributing her risk of getting laid off).
With all of her new found free time, she started up a dog grooming and walking business because she loves dogs.
More freedom, time, passion, and diversification.
