After nearly burning out at his full-time job, technician Matthew Rankin turned his online side hustle into a six-figure 9-to-5.
Matthew Rankin, a 52-year-old appliance technician from Greenville, South Carolina, quit his full-time job after burning out and decided to pursue his side hustle of answering appliance questions online full-time. He now works 9 to 10 hours a day, earning up to $15,000 a month.
