The Perks

Whatever the reasons for seeking extra employment, there are benefits that it offers.

1. Multiple income streams equal increased stability. If you loose your day job, you'll have a fallback plan.
2. It gives you the chance to develop and polish other skills.
3. It eases the monotony of lifelong careers. Having outside interests can help burnout, and gives you added perspective when dealing with situations.
4. It gives you the opportunity to network. You get to know more people in your field, and make contacts that might lead to more work.
5. The chance to make a dream come true, or at least try on a new career path.
