Welcome to my December 2018 edition of the side hustle report.
Every month I write an income report of all my side hustles. I do this to track my income and to motivate myself (and hopefully also others) to make more money to invest. And with this money I provide some extra fuel my Vrijheid Fonds, in order to try to reach financial independence earlier.
For these reports it is important to understand that not all side hustles pay out immediately, therefore the numbers I present here are the accumulated revenues that hasn’t been paid out yet, but are in my various accounts. When I actually get paid, it is explicitly stated.
These side hustle income reports, in my opinion, provide a great look at how anyone can earn extra money outside of their day job.
With that said, let’s take a look how I did in December 2018. As my frequent readers know, at this moment I have five side-hustles going on to help me generate cash for my Vrijheid Fonds. In this post I will report my accumulated revenues for all five side-hustles.
Google AdSense
December was a record-breaking month. Drumrolls please… I have accumulated €21.34 of extra income with the ads from Google AdSense. So this month again a new record for www.polliesdividend.com !! *Applaud* *Cheers*
I wasn’t even that productive in December. But still my website was found more often. And this resulted in a higher income from Google AdSense 🙂 I still love every € I make with my website Polliesdividend.
Thanks to all my readers and followers for your input, love and inspiring me! Thanks to all you readers, I have been paid twice in 2018. I hope in 2019 you will come back, read my post, enjoy my ads and send me some love 🙂 .

As already stated, Google paid me twice in 2018! I’m proud of what I’ve reached so far. Okay, my site hasn’t reached the break-even point. Hey, but it is a start, and it is something I love to do. And I couldn’t have done it without you, my readers. Thanks!!
The accumulated revenues in my Google AdSense account at the end of December are € 21.43
Whenever you see a successful person, you only see the public glories, never the private sacrifices to reach them
Bol.com & Amazon.com
In December I had no revenues from Amazon.com. This means that my Amazon account is still standing at $0.67.
If I don’t make any more revenues before the end of the first quarter of 2019, my Amazon account will be closed.

In December I didn’t earn some extra commission in my Bol.com account. It is still standing at €0.00.

Euroclix
Euroclix is the longest running savings program in The Netherlands. With this program you can earn money by reading emails, participating in surveys, buying stuff on the Internet and using their Credit Card. For my Dutch readers I wrote a post about Euroclix. If you haven’t read it already, take a look at: A post for my Dutch Readers: Waarom gebruik ik Euroclix als “bijbaantje”?
Yeah, I know that Euroclix won’t to earn me a full income. I just see it as some nice extra cash I can earn with a little bit of effort.
If you’re Dutch and also want to earn a little bit of extra cash, sign up with Euroclix, it is free. You will receive a registration bonus of 2 euros immediately upon registration. Have fun and success with earning some extra cash!
Euroclix gives you points (clix) for every survey you fill in; furthermore you earn clix by ordering stuff (books, electronics, hotel bookings, etc.) on the Internet and when you use their Credit Card.
In the table below I will show the number of clix I earned in a month.
Month | Revenue |
January | 801 |
February | 765 |
March | 1,175 |
April | 1,649 |
May | -3,847 |
June | 1,634 |
July | 510 |
August | 714 |
September | -4,486 |
October | 1,190 |
November | 1,200 |
December | 1,118 |
Clix from 2017 | 1,328 |
2018 | 3,693 clix |
When I reach the threshold of 5.000 clix, I will order Euroclix to pay out and that moment I will receive € 70. In 2018, I made € 140 from Euroclix and I put it to work for me.
If you also want to earn some extra cash, just try Euroclix and sign in.
Member’s board
Regular visitors of Polliesdividend know that I’m a member of the member’s board of a local financial company. This board organizes at least 4 meetings every year on financial issues. As a member I’m asked my opinion about financial issues and what I recommend as the best strategy for the company on these issues. When I attend a meeting I get expenses paid. There was one member’s board meeting in November, and they have paid out in December.
A dream doesn’t become reality through magic;
it takes sweat, determination and hard work
This side hustle paid me €540 in 2018. What a great side hustle, I got paid by doing something I love, talking about money and investments.
Finally
December was a good month for my side hustles. I had a record-breaking month with Google AdSense!

Pollies –
Congrats on the record month with Adsense and using your time to bring in extra income, and putting that to WORK! Love it.

Thanks
Did you ever think about bundling your blogs – extending them a bit – and create an ebook and sell it for 10 dollars or so on your site? 😉
Maybe later on. At this moment I don’t think it is enough.
I have thought about it. But thanks for your suggestion
Nice to see a new record month there on the GA revenue Pollie; how much have you experimented with ad placements, sizes, etc.?
I have tried it. But didn’t see much difference
Small money is money as well and you got quite a bit with euroclix actually. Dutch: wie het kleine niet eert :).
You’re absolutely right!
