5 EASIEST Claude AI Side Hustles To Start If You're Over 50

These are the five easiest cloud AI side hustles to start if you're over 50. And here's what most people over 50 get backwards. They try to learn something brand new, like a course, a store, some app that a 24 year old swears by. And so they end up starting from zero against people who started a long time ago, people who are younger and they can learn faster and the money goes out the door on tools and trainings and nothing comes back. But that was never the real problem. The real problem was that they entered the wrong contest. And the people in this video did the opposite They sold what they already knew on websites where customers were already lined up asking. And Claude AI makes the setup part easy. There's a retired RV mechanic who answers RV questions from his laptop and earns over $10,000 a month doing it. And then there's a 52-year-old who grew up around antiques who tells families what grandma's China is worth. And she's earned as much as $8,700 a month. And every person here is researched and vetted by myself and my team. And if the list can't show you a real person, it's probably AI slop. So if you appreciate me making this type of content, then let me know by gently cheering that like button. And let's jump into it right now. Okay, so the first one is the paid answer expert. This one is getting paid to literally just answer questions as a verified expert. Now, Nora Curl is 52. She grew up antique shopping with her parents, and now she answers strangers' questions about antiques online. And CNBC said that she made over $124,000 in 2022 alone doing it. And she still has months as high as $8,700. A retired RV mechanic named Randall Gibbons is 75, told Entrepreneur he makes $10,000 to $14,000 a month answering RV-related questions. And here's the ceiling. A former Ford mechanic named Chris Pyle makes around $14,200 a month. And they're all on the the same website, which is JustAnswer. So, here's the job. Somebody's dishwasher dies at 9pm. Their dog just ate something weird. Grandma's china might be worth real money. And they type the question, and a verified human expert answers it. And they get paid per answer. So, you never advertise, you never sell. The questions line up on their own, all day, every day, and people pay for it for one simple reason. When something breaks at 9pm, You cannot get a freaking human being on the phone anywhere anymore. But a real expert who answers in plain English is worth the money. Now, if you're over the age of 50, you've probably been that person for 30 years. And remember the old hardware store? One guy behind the desk who'd seen everything and half the town came in just to ask him. And he did it all for free. Wasn't getting paid for his expertise, but the internet rebuilt that guy. Except now, every question pays him. So the gate is your resume. is your experience, your wisdom, and your knowledge that you've accumulated over the decades. Now, some categories need a license, like law, medicine, or veterinarian, but plenty run on experience alone, like appliances, consumer electronics, small engines, antiques, and appraisals. So you apply, they verify your background, which takes about a week, and their own survey says they want over 4,000 new experts this year. Time out, time out, guys. If you ever thought I should be on YouTube, but I never started because of the time or the editing or not knowing what to say or not knowing how to get started, AI just solved all of those problems for you. Because you can now make money from YouTube working less than four hours a week. 15 to 30 minutes a day is all you And this works even if you have a full-time job, you run a business. You're already doing YouTube and you failed at it, or you're doing YouTube and you're doing pretty well, but you're struggling with monetization, or you're just a normal person who isn't techie at all, which is exactly why this week I'm hosting a live training on exactly how to start YouTube step-by-step for beginners. It is 100% free, no cash at all. And on top of that, I'm going to be handing out even more bonuses at the training. Now, just to give you one example, you'll be getting my Niche Validator Pro that's powered by Claude, and we have a ChatGPT version as well. And this is a super valuable piece of software where you can finally figure out what the best niche for you is. Or if you already have a niche, it's going to help you make it 10 times better. So do not sleep on this one. Go and grab your spot down in the description and the pinned comment below, because the only way to get it is by joining the training. So if you wait, you might miss out. Now, with that said, at the workshop, you will get to meet me personally. I'll be answering questions before, during, and after the workshop directly. So I'm looking forward to seeing you there. So go click that link in the description and the pinned comment below. It's happening this week. So get it on your calendar. And if for some reason you can't make it or you weren't able to be there, still go click that link in the description because it will automatically put you on a wait list to notify you when we'll be running our next live training and you will be the first one to hear about it. So yeah, looking forward to seeing you there. And now back to our regularly scheduled programming. Now, JustAnswer.com can be a really good opportunity for a lot of people out there. But honestly, if you're comfortable making videos, you can make significantly more money on YouTube. And here's a perfect example. And by the way, this is the next digital side hustle, which is share what you know on YouTube. Scotty Kilmer, very much like the guys that we just talked about, like Randall Gibbons, is in his 70s and he basically makes content on YouTube helping people fix their car. Pick the right car or buy car-related products and services. And he's made over $24 million doing this. And he said that he made more in one month on YouTube than he saved in his entire 40-year career as a mechanic. So there are people making a really good living answering questions on Just Answer. But Scotty Kilmer is making an absolute killing doing this. He's making enough money to retire in one month. The only difference between him and Randall Gibbons is that he recorded his knowledge on a camera and put it online instead of just typing and answering questions. And that is the power of YouTube, guys, right? This is the one that I do myself as well. I've made over $10 million doing this, and I literally just get paid to share what I already know on YouTube. And it's not just me. There's tons of people in my community doing this as well. RJ the Unretired, for instance, he's in his 60s, and he talks about the one thing that he genuinely knows, which is what retirement is actually like. And how to maximize your retirement, both in terms of quality of life, as well as the financial side, right? We're talking time, money, social security, et cetera, et cetera. And one of his videos about taking social security at 62. He's been watched over 1.4 million times. And I helped him get started. And a few months after applying my system, he had a $28,000 month. Magda is in her 50s. She's a kidney nurse. And she started explaining kidney health on camera and grew past 100,000 subscribers. And by the way, it's not just career-related stuff. It's literally any skill you have or any problem that you've overcome. So Damien and Kennedy help Christians find their kingdom partner. And they make a full-time income doing that. Carla helps businesses recruit people for certain positions. And she made $100,000 from a video. I'm going to teach you how to pick the right niche. As well as give you an AI that helps you pick the right niche. Or if you already have one, it'll help you make it 10 times better. Plus, I'm going to help you pick the right video ideas. Those two things are absolutely key and get started step by step, even if you're a complete beginner and even if you've never made a video in your life. So if that sounds good to you, go ahead and click the first link in the description and the pinned comment below to check that out. And I look forward to seeing you at the live training. I'll be there before, during and after. And make sure you attend this because there are limited seats and we run out every single time and we get emails and messages about it. So make sure you secure your seat right away. Click that first link in the description. And even if you're watching this in the future, still click that link because it'll automatically put you on a wait list to attend the next live training that we do. All right, the next one is going to be a Zoom declutter coach. So there's an organizer in Los Angeles named Julia Raz and her company is Golden West Organizing. And she charges $150 to $250 an hour to help people dig out of their own houses. And she told a finance site that she's made over $100,000 doing it. With her best month, over $20,000. And part of what she sells is a short decluttering session over video. So here's the job. Somebody's drowning in their own house. The garage, the closets, the kitchen counters, it's a mess. You get on a video call, they point the phone at the mess and you tell them what happens next. Keep, donate, trash, et cetera. One pile at a time. They do all the lifting, you bring the plan, and you keep them moving. It's kind of like being a gym trainer. The trainer doesn't lift the weights, the trainer stands there so that you actually show up and do the reps. Same job, but different room. And people badly want this. A video of a professional organizer helping a retiree declutter her kitchen has been watched over 400,000 times. So the demand is enormous. And almost nobody sells the over-video version. And Claude can run your back office, and it can help you to actually get clients. So the client sends photos of the room before the call. You describe them to Claude and it hands you a session plan. What order, what boxes, what supplies they should buy, what questions to ask. And after the call, it writes the homework list and you send it to them. 10 minutes of typing, or you can literally just talk to the AI and the paperwork side of the business is done. Now you might be thinking, well, Shane, why would anyone pay for this when they could just clean? Because they haven't. Some of them for years. So they're not paying for a plan. They're paying for a calm person who shows up every Thursday at 10 and doesn't judge them. And by 55, you've seen worse messes than theirs. So that calm. is the product. And the honest part is hoarding is different. If the mess looks like a mental health struggle, you say so kindly and point them to a real professional. And that line protects them and you. Two sessions a day at $75 each is about $3,000 a month. Now the exact steps are on the screen. If you want to get started, you can copy and paste this or just pause and follow those steps. And also I'm going to have resources that go along with all of these. So if you're interested in them, there'll be resources and prompts down in the description and the pinned comment below. Third link down there. And those will help you get started with these. Now, this is an example of something that you could do if you're already really good at cleaning. But let's just assume that you're not good at cleaning. You probably have some sort of niche skill that you've spent a lot of time on and you have good judgment because of the fact that you've just simply spent thousands of hours doing it. And that's where the next one comes in, which is get paid to train AI. So last November, Business Insider profiled a group of people doing this. One of them is Elizabeth Boyd in Florida. And she used to own a travel agency franchise, and she now earns $35 to $50 an hour grading AI answers on a site called Outlier, and around $45 an hour on one called Mercor. Now, a chemistry and physics teacher named Fred Now makes about $15,000 a year at 15 to 20 hours a week. And a man named Ryan Adams banked about $31,000 in a year and a half doing it part-time. So here's the job. AI companies need humans to check the robot's work. The AI writes the answer, you read it, and you mark what's wrong. Bad facts, made up numbers, advice that would hurt somebody, or just advice. And the more you know about a real subject, like nursing, law, teaching, bookkeeping, machines, etc., the more they pay you. Because the robot's most expensive mistakes are the ones that only an expert catches. It's grading homework, and the robot does the homework. You're the teacher with a red pen, and a red pen with 30 years behind it costs more. You spent decades developing a second sense, right? You learn to smell when something's wrong before you can even explain why. And that instinct is the product. They can't build it, so they rent yours. Getting it is a test, not an interview. So the sites are Data Annotation, Outlier, Mercor, and Aligner. Pass the starter assessment, and paid tasks usually show up in your queue within a couple of weeks. Now you might be thinking, Shane, if I train it, aren't I training my replacement? The robot is already here. The only question is whether you're the one holding the red pen and cashing the check while it learns. And in my opinion, there's still many things that human beings that have actual expertise, actual wisdom, and actual experience are going to be able to do that robots simply will never be able to do. Next one is going to be the fact checker. So the Editorial Freelancers Association, the trade group for freelance editors, publishes what its members actually charge. The newest rate chart puts freelance fact checking at $60 to $72.50 an hour. And that's not a someday number, that's the current going rate for reading something and confirming it's true before it gets published. And here's the job. So a company writes a big report, a consultant drafts a claim-heavy sales page, and a newsletter quotes a study. Before it goes out the door, somebody goes line by line, is this number right? Is this quote real? Does that study actually say that? And that somebody bills $60 an hour. And you know how a cashier holds a $100 bill up to the light? Well, that's the job. Somebody hands you a fact and you hold it up to the light. And business is growing for one embarrassing reason. AI writes with total confidence and it makes things up. Companies have been burned in public. Fake court cases, fake studies, wrong numbers. And suddenly, a human checked every line is worth real money again. So the machine made the mess, but you get paid to mop it. So let's talk about Claude's part. And yes, that's allowed. Claude does the first pass. It pulls out every claim in the document, lists what kind of source each one needs, and builds your checking plan. Then you verify each claim against a real source, and the robot organizes the work. Now, you can use any AI that you prefer, of course. I like using Claude. Chat GPT can be pretty good for some tasks as well. Now, you might be thinking, well, Shane, don't I need a journalism degree? Well, the rate chart doesn't ask for one. Clients ask one thing. Have you caught expensive mistakes before? 30 years of catching them at work, like wrong invoices, wrong doses, wrong measurements, is the resume. So write it in plain English and charge for it. Now look back at everything that you just watched in this video, because there's one thread through this entire video. Nora answers one antique question at a time, Julia coaches one closet at a time, and every hustle in here pays you one person at a time. And the video is the version of you that stands in every line at once. You explain the thing once, question your family always calls you about, or the problems or the things that you've explained to coworkers for 30 years. And it keeps answering people for years while YouTube pays you for it. And the money is not small when you know something real, right? Last month, I made $50,000 just from AdSense alone, literally just making videos completely passively without having to sell anything or do anything like that. I made over $50,000, but you can make even more money if you sell stuff and all of these other digital side hustles. In fact. All side hustles out there, they all work, but they have one thing in common, and that is you need people to know that you exist so that they can become customers for you, right? So that they can actually give you money. And YouTube is the best machine on earth to actually get people to know that you exist. And it's actually designed for educational content where you're helping people to solve their problems. And when you post a video, it doesn't just get views for a few days and then die. It gets videos for years down the line. I actually still have videos that I posted six years ago that are making me money every single day. And I even get sales from those those videos that are posted six years ago. And it's completely passive. So I know that 99% of you are going to enjoy my free videos, get a ton of value out of them. I get messages and emails and DMs from you guys all the time, and I really appreciate it. I know that a lot of you are going to download my free resources, which we put a ton of effort into as well, get a ton of value out of that. And I know that you're definitely going to attend my live training because you're going to get a massive amount of value out of that. And again, first link in the description, the pinned comment below, you can check it out down there. But I also know that the vast majority of you are never going to work with me directly, and that is completely fine. But there's going to be 1% of you out there, maybe 0.1% of you out there that want a one-on-one hand-holding mentorship coach experience or you want us to literally just do the work for you when it comes to helping you grow your YouTube channel. If that sounds like you, then go ahead and click the second link in the description in the pinned comment below to book a call with myself or my team. But only book this call if you are very serious about growing and making money on YouTube as we are very limited in the amount of people that we can work with and we're only accepting five people right now. The types of people we typically work with are going to be professionals with at least ten years of experience and we do prefer to work with people on the older side simply because they have more wisdom, knowledge and experience to share with the rest of the world Things that you can't Google or look up on ChatGPT. We also work with business owners who want to use YouTube to grow their brand, get more views, subscribers, leads, and make more revenue from YouTube, right? Get more clients from YouTube. And YouTube helps make all of your other marketing efforts significantly easier because people are going to start consuming your content. They're going to get nurtured and they're going to be way more likely to buy from you. We also work with YouTubers who are getting a lot of views, but they're struggling with monetization or they have dead YouTube channels or they just don't like their niche and they want to pivot niches. We also work with YouTubers who are crushing it, but they want to crush it even harder. And we work with people who have large followings on social media platforms, and they want to bring that following over to YouTube because they know that YouTube is the best because YouTube is the place where videos don't die after two days. So if that sounds like you, go ahead and click that link in the description should be the second link down there to book a call. But all these five types of people have one thing in common, and that is they want to treat YouTube like a business and they really want to take this seriously. Because again, this program and one-on-one mentorship is very expensive for us to put together. So the program is very expensive. So do not book that call if you're not prepared for that. With that being said, check out this video right here to see exactly how we helped Nurse Jen go from zero to full-time income in less than six weeks, quit her nursing job, and now she's traveling all over the United States in a camper van living her dream life. And she did it all by sharing what she already knew, what was common sense to her on her YouTube channel. And you can check that out by clicking this video right here.
