Tutor
If you’ve worked as a tutor, substitute teacher, or have shared your talents teaching violin or programming, you shouldn’t waste all that talent. There are many people, even youngsters who would still benefit from your experience. You can list your services on Craigslist or Nextdoor to find the people that are looking for someone like you.
Seamstress
The world needs more skilled people for greater pillows, slipcovers, and curtains. So if you’re passionate about sewing, you shouldn’t waste your talent. Nothing compares with experience! Start selling your services on Etsy, and let people know you’re open to taking on new projects.
You did not mention retail merchandiser. These people work for 3rd parties (outside companies) to help retailers such as Target, Walmart, Publix, Home Depot, etc get tasks done. These tasks are typically 10 to 30 minutes long and depending on the area you live in, available in all the branches of the retailer you are working with. You can sign up for these jobs online, complete the projects on your schedule (within a one or two-week time frame), and get paid by electronic payment. The tasks include placing coupons on products, checking for product availability in the store, and setting up small displays. The work is reported using your phone. This is a great job for seniors.
Is this a joke? The retired people, that I know, all have health issues, and need sit, down jobs. This article lists many that say, “it’s hard work, but”. I have a 70 year old friend, who just quit Starbucks after 2 weeks, due to the intensity of learning. Anyway, in the richest country in the world, we have too many seniors that MUST work to make ends meet! WHY????
