Ask YC: how to best make money on the side?

There is always Starbucks.... Work 30hrs/week so you get health insurance and other benefits. The job will be like some brainless activity that programmers really need time to time.

Bonus: You get to meet/interface with lots of people, and maybe you can score some hot chicks on the side.

Sucks: Pay. 8/hr or 10/hr is not really much, but I guess enough to buy lots of ramen noodles for a starving programmer.

I would actually be interested in working in a cafe for a while, just for the social experience. But I just can't justify it economically. Except perhaps when thinking it gives me a minimum income for peace of mind. Then again, consulting for the same amount of time would buy much more time.

That's really not "on the side." That's just about full time.

Plus, rigid hours?
