Life is expensive. This is something that we\u2019re either already aware of or something that we\u2019re bound to realize by the time we leave college. Between rent, groceries, insurance, gas and entertainment on the weekends, the costs of being alive quickly add up. And while we all hopefully have our steady jobs on Guam<\/a> to support us, sometimes even the money earned from that just isn\u2019t enough. In today\u2019s age of the internet and gig economies, it\u2019s more common than ever to have a part-time gig or side-hustle for some extra beer money or to help pay the bills. Luckily, on Guam, just as with anywhere else in the world, there are a number of different ways in which you can make some easy money if you\u2019re savvy. We\u2019ll take a look at a couple of examples below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If there\u2019s one skill that everyone has, it\u2019s knowing how to speak a language. It doesn\u2019t matter whether it\u2019s English, Chinese or Chamorro, everyone knows how to speak something<\/em>. Luckily for you, there\u2019s almost certainly someone in the world who wants to learn how to speak the language you already know, and they\u2019re willing to pay. Websites such as Justlearn <\/a>or italki<\/a> connect you with paying students around the world, allowing you to earn good money directly from your bedroom. All you need is a functioning microphone and camera, and you\u2019re off to the races. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This is more of a one-time payout than a long-term strategy for making cash, but it\u2019s lucrative enough that we\u2019ll include it. Since Guam is such a major tourist destination, there are a huge number of flights landing and departing everyday. If you happen to be on one of those flights and it\u2019s delayed or cancelled, and it\u2019s due to negligence on the airline\u2019s side, you can claim a pretty large amount of compensation to make up for the inconvenience. It doesn\u2019t matter whether it\u2019s an international airline such as Qatar or a more local company like American Airlines, flight delays<\/a> and cancellations will be compensated for up to $700 under the right circumstances, and companies like AirHelp can help you claim it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s always beer o’clock somewhere in the world, and the same is true for Guam. Bar work is the perfect opportunity for someone looking to supplement their income and have a great time while doing so. It pays pretty decently especially if you find work in an establishment that encourages tipping, and the hours allow you to work concurrently with another gig. Your local bar will almost always be hiring, too, so there will always be opportunities for the right candidate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Airbnb has taken the world by storm. It\u2019s allowed anyone with a spare room and some basic marketing skills the opportunity to make some serious cash. Hell, sometimes you don\u2019t even need a spare room; a blowup mattress and a comforter will work just fine. Luckily for you, tourism on Guam is booming, and means that many tourists are in the market for a good room to stay in temporarily. If you happen to have the space and you don\u2019t mind sharing it with someone else, you\u2019re looking at making some serious money in a short period of time. Life is expensive.
