The Side Hustle King: “I’m making $8K/DAY from easy businesses”

**Shaan Puri** (0:00)
All right, this guy might be the king of side hustles. He makes about $3 million a year off of six or seven different side hustles, different streams of income. And normally, all the advice you hear is about focus, focus, go all in on one thing. This guy is like Mr. Shiny Object Syndrome. So I loved having him on, he's very fun. And he comes on and he tells you the side hustle ideas that he loves. So things that you could do, it's kind of weird businesses, but you could do them really in any local market. And on this podcast, sometimes we have really brilliant people, but they talk about stuff that's, for most people, not something they could go do. It's interesting to hear, but you can't really do it. This is an episode I'm going to send to my sister or my brother-in-law, because I think they would like to do these businesses. I think these are things that anybody actually can do and get to where he's gotten, where I think he's making $8,000 per day of free cash flow off of these side hustles per day. That's pretty crazy. So enjoy this episode. It's all about the weird, crazy side hustles that anybody could do if you just got a little bit of hustle.
All right, what's up? We got Chris here. Chris, you are a crazy guy. You're a madman. And one of the reasons I wanted you on here is because most business advice on the internet sounds like this. You gotta focus. You gotta lock in. You gotta grind. You have to just go all in on one thing. Focus, focus, focus. And you're like the exact opposite. You're a dude who, you see a shiny object, you chase it and you're not ashamed to say it. That's actually your strategy. We were talking before this and you were telling me that you have, I think started 30 different businesses that crossed over 50,000 in revenue, maybe 35 You said you have six different revenue streams right now that each produce over $100,000 of cashflow for you. And I was doing the math on some of your numbers. And I think basically just on your side hustles, you're making like $8,000 a day of cashflow. And I think that is amazing. I want to hear what your side hustles are. I want to hear what other side hustles you found because you find these like random simple businesses that are cool. I want to hear which ones you think are cool that other people couldn't go do for their own side hustles. And I want to hear your philosophy as you go, because again, I think you defy some of the odds.

**Chris Koerner** (2:15)
That sounds perfect. Absolutely. Let's do it.

**Shaan Puri** (2:17)
So tell me about some of the ideas you have that other people could do.

**Chris Koerner** (2:21)
Dude, I think you should pull up that video of the hole-in-one golf challenge. This is one that I can't get out of my head.

**Shaan Puri** (2:27)
All right, so here we go. Look at this freaking thing right here. And I see a basically a golf putting green. So like that, we're just the part where the hole is, and it's just floating out in the ocean. And you said that this driving range in New Zealand pays out $10,000 if you hit a hole in one. It's 111 yards away. You get this like plaque if you hit the hole in one. And so what is the business here? They basically, it's like a carnival game. They charge you a little bit to try to hit a hole in one. Is that it?

**Chris Koerner** (2:58)
Yeah, it's kind of like, think of like unbundling a carnival. It's, the business is math. They're just using math, right? And here's the math. The average amateur golfer, and I don't golf. I hate golf, has a one in 25,000 chance of getting a hole in one on a par three, which this is, okay? And so this company in New Zealand, it's right off the road on this lake. They have announced multiple times that they pay out on average once every two weeks. So I can use math to say, all right, these guys, and I know how much they sell balls for. It's like 40 bucks for 25 balls or something. And they have a sensor in the hole, and they have divers go get the balls every couple of weeks.

**Shaan Puri** (3:38)
There's like a scuba diver swimming around the thing. Is he there all the time, or he just does that once a week, goes and gets all the balls?
