The Day Job Income - During the day, I don the uniform of corporate America (not to be mistaken with Captain America) and head to my special place (it’s a cube). There I sit for 8 or 9 hours and do my work while I dream up ways to never have to wear the uniform or sit in the cube again. Sometimes it’s a lot like The Office, more often it’s like Office Space, but mostly it’s a lot like Groundhog Day (as in it’s the same thing over and over again for those that haven’t seen the movie). I have much more to say on work, jobs, dreams, etc. so stay tuned.
The Small Business Income - About a year ago, I started a small business (very small) that I run part-time on nights and weekends. It’s profitable but I won’t be quitting the day job anytime soon.
The Internet Income - I make minuscule amounts of money from advertising on this very blog and a couple of other sites that I run.
The Random Income - Every now and then, I sell things on eBay or pick up a random one-time job (one of these tomorrow!) or receive money as a gift. This category also includes interest from bank accounts and dividends received in my stock portfolios.
So that’s where my money comes from. Next time, I’ll take a look at where it goes once I get it.

What type of business do you run part time?
I run an online used bookstore. Though the money comes from the internet, I included it in its own category because most of the work is done in the physical world (acquiring inventory, sorting, organizing, packing, shipping, etc.) It’s a lot of work but a lot of fun, too!
