A real job is the job that makes you money that you can use to pay your bills. On average you spend 40 hours per week on a real job. Side hustle is a work that you do in your spare time and make some extra money that you can use to pay your bills, save, or buy luxury. Do you think online work is a real job or just a side hustle. Well, I believe online job can be a real job as well as side hustle depending on how much time you spend with the tasks you are doing and how much you earning.
