2. Be a Census Taker
2020 is a census year: Up your good citizenship ante, and get a job as a census taker! It's important work, considering that Census data helps determine how much money is allocated to your state, as well as the fair number of U.S. representatives your state has in Congress. Since the Census is taken only every 10 years, the office needs major help when the time comes, and is now hiring thousands of people across the country for short-term help. Most of the jobs require door-to-door information-collecting, but there are also jobs as temporary recruitment assistants, supervisors and back-office staff. According to the U.S. Census website, most of the positions offer flexible hours and workdays. The majority of the jobs involve going door to door collecting and updating address and map data.

What it pays: About $15 per hour.

4. Rent Out Your Car (without having to be a driver)
If you're nervous about being a Lyft or Uber driver because you don't want to pick up strangers and drive who-knows-where, how about letting someone else do the driving and just getting paid to supply them the car? Sites like Turo or Maven let you list your car or truck for other people to rent (it's like Airbnb for cars). You lay the ground rules for what you do and don't accept (no dogs, smoking, etc.), set a calendar for when your car is available, and wait for prospective renters to roll in. It's a great option if you're, say, going on vacation and not going to be using your car. Worried about your car getting damaged? Don't be. Turo and Maven screen all renters before allowing them to book and all drivers must have insurance (either their own or the plan offered by the company) before renting.

What you can make: An average of $700 per month, according to the Turo website. (Note: This is only if you can rent out your car regularly.)
