I disagree. A second job is a "second job".

A side hustle is something you own.

I make apps on the side. I have no boss, nobody to report to. Some of them, I've made some extra loot.

    Being an instacart shopper, doordasher or Uber driver is a "side hustle." You don't own that. You're a contractor giving up labor rights to make very little extra money.
