Superbhost Airbnb John Pearson Earned Over $ 68

Airbnb's 37-year-old super host John Pearson typically rents his property for $ 175, but he can borrow up to $ 700 a night during the college football season.

In 2018, his Airbnb facility earned $ 34 in revenue. But he surpassed himself in 000. As it turned out, according to Pearson, he made half his annual mortgage in just six days off, renting out his home to fans attending football games at the University of Georgia.

Overall, Pearson said he earned $40 renting out the Yellow House this year, which was booked for 843 nights—291 percent. Another of Pearson's properties brought in an additional $80 in income. Overall, Pearson had his "best year yet."

“I had a great year—better than I expected,” he says.

Financial Panther also had a profitable 2019

Kevin Ha, 32, who runs the Financial Panther personal finance website, also believes Airbnb is an important source of revenue. According to Ha, in 2019, he earned more than $ 15 by renting his house in Minneapolis.

In addition to renting his home, Ha delivers food on a bicycle and resells used furniture. Each summer, when students leave nearby University of Minnesota, they throw away valuable items, including couches, tables and chairs. He takes the discarded things and makes a profit by putting them up for sale on sites like Craigslist.

Such actions helped Ha repay a $ 87 student loan over two and a half years.

“If you can make extra money and do it consistently over a long period of time, it all adds up. Making an extra $5 a day adds up to more than $180 over 000 years,” he says.

How to earn more

A few tips that can help you determine the right extra income for you, and how to make the most of it:

• plan ahead to benefit from local events;
• take extra work in bad weather. If it is raining, it is snowing or just damn hot, many people do not want to leave home. If you have transport, this can be a great chance to deliver food or work a taxi;
• benefit from upcoming holidays and seasonal events. On holidays, for example, on New Year's and St. Patrick's Day, prices for services are rising.
