I replaced my corporate salary by starting a photo booth business. Now, I coach entrepreneurs on finding their niche.
This as-told-to essay is based on a conversation with Ben Hawes, a comedy musician and side hustle coach based in New York City. It has been edited for length and clarity. I moved to New York when I was 22, and I was really in pursuit of security. My parents had steady jobs throughout their whole careers, and they were able to retire comfortably — I saw what their jobs had done for them, and I really wanted to climb the corporate ladder, too, so I joined ClassPass, which was a big, growing company at the time. I was making a name for myself there when, five years later, in 2020, the pandemic happened. The CFO said we were recession-proof, but we certainly were not pandemic-proof. When all the gyms closed, the company had to let go of a lot of people — I was one of them. I spent 10 months unemployed. During that time, one of the things I did to keep myself busy was build a job-hunting network that grew to about 250 people. It was a Slack channel and a blog, and it was a nice way for people to connect. But then I actually developed a merch store for it, and that's what became most successful about it. Shortly after that, I started my photo booth side hustle, called Rent My Booth. I'd go to events, and essentially just make people smile and have fun at parties with my booth, with fun backgrounds and props, and my camera. It wasn't enough to get by on its own at that point, so I started another corporate job. I was there for three years, and when I got laid off again in January 2024, it was the catalyst I needed to finally accept the fact that I just need to do my own stuff and be on my own, making my living from my own endeavors. Now, I have a few small businesses to diversify my income streams. I still do my photo booths, and I tour performing musical comedy in New York, Los Angeles, and San Francisco. I'm scaling my business up, but I make enough to pay my bills. With just 10 photo booth events a month, I can replace my corporate salary, which takes about 60 hours of work at the events, plus an hour or two a day to promote the business and do administrative things. My friends started noticing that I was always busy with some new project. I'm a doer, and a lot of creative people get in their head about how to get started, whether that's launching a new website, starting a podcast, or opening a business of their own. It was a friend who actually suggested that I start teaching people how I do it. So I started coaching I wrote a book on Amazon called "How to Start" about finding and starting a side hustle. I started meeting with people on a weekly basis who would have an idea, and I would basically help them bring it to life. What I do is not really business coaching, because I don't think that what I'm necessarily going to be the best at is training you over two years to make your business successful, but what I am really good at is helping you bring an idea to life. It's more like creative launch consulting, so if someone wanted to start a Shopify store or an Etsy store, start a podcast, or start something else for their business or even just something for themselves, I'm someone who can really help get you going. That often takes the form of creative services and content production, because I find that what a lot of people really need are the technical skills of making a website, or editing a podcast, and things like that. But I'm also there to be a cheerleader and help you get out of your own way. I coach people one-on-one, but I realized one of the interesting things about side hustle coaching is that someone who needs an extra $300 a month probably shouldn't be paying a coach $1,000 a month. So, to make it more accessible, I make it about content creation, and I do some workshops that people can pay $10 or $20 to attend. When I talk to a new client for side hustle coaching, I start by telling them that it requires optimism and an ability to rise above the highs and the lows. To go full-time with your endeavors is not a one-month thing; it's not something you do quickly. You build over time. And I stress to them that I'm working every day. I don't really have weekends, every day I'm doing something for the sale of a photo booth or building a website or some kind of creative endeavor. The other big thing is that you have to be authentic. If you think of the fundamentals of business, they're all about relationships and customer service, and it has to be genuine. It has to be something you care about deeply and that you will be OK with spending 18 hours a day on. If you're trying to put out something that doesn't feel authentic or feels half-assed, double-check with yourself that you're proud of it. And if you yourself are proud of it, you will be more likely to be successful as an entrepreneur, because in order to thrive at a side hustle, you have to talk about it all the time and promote yourself constantly. Don't fall for some online guide that tells you that you can make $10,000 a month in three simple steps; it takes real work to rely on yourself full-time. But you've got to choose your challenge. It's hard to work for yourself, but it's hard to work for someone else, too. So decide which one you'd rather do, be bold, and go for it.

EBC Financial Group Launches Over a 100 U.S. ETF CFDs, Strengthening Diversification for Global Clients
LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--EBC Financial Group (EBC) has announced the launch of over 100 new U.S.-listed Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF) CFDs, expanding its multi-asset product suite and offering global client's deeper access to diversified, thematic trading opportunities. The rollout highlights EBC's ongoing commitment to delivering institutional-grade tools across asset classes, underpinned by flexibility, transparency, and efficiency. The new offering includes ETFs listed on the NYSE and NASDAQ, issued by leading asset managers such as Vanguard, iShares (BlackRock), and State Street Global Advisors. Thematic coverage spans a wide range of global macro and sectoral narratives. 'This expansion reflects our vision to bridge intelligent product design with market relevance,' said David Barrett, CEO of EBC Financial Group (UK) Ltd. 'The new products are a natural evolution for traders seeking targeted exposure with greater strategic flexibility. At EBC, we're building an ecosystem that empowers both precision and performance.' Thematic Access Meets Tactical Flexibility The additional ETF-linked instruments cover a variety of market exposures, including geographic allocations like the iShares MSCI Brazil ETF; fixed income-focused strategies such as the iShares iBoxx $ High Yield Corporate Bond Fund; and sector- or commodity-based indices including the United States Oil Fund LP and the Vanguard Health Care ETF. Other themes include dividend-related baskets, mid-cap equities, and style-based index tracking. These developments reflect wider industry interest in instruments that mirror trends in asset allocation without direct ownership of the underlying securities. Across many markets, sector-tilted and style-based index products are gaining relevance as participants seek flexible ways to align with global narratives. Historically, ETFs tracking specific economic cycles—such as commodity recoveries or emerging market rebounds—have demonstrated performance differentiation. The iShares MSCI Brazil ETF, for example, notably outperformed the S&P 500 during the post-pandemic recovery period in 2021, highlighting how thematic instruments can diverge from broad indices depending on market cycles. These additions serve as both stand-alone trade ideas and complementary instruments alongside EBC's existing product lineup, enabling advanced portfolio structuring and thematic trading. Smarter Exposure: Leverage, Shorting, and Cost Efficiency in One Product Compared to direct ETF investments, it presents several key advantages as traders benefit from a simplified cost structure, with no traditional fund management fees or broker commissions. The flexibility to take both long and short positions allows for strategic trading regardless of market direction, while the use of leverage enhances capital efficiency and return potential. These trades are executed in real time via EBC's recognised platforms, providing seamless access to market opportunities. During key market cycles, for example the post-pandemic V-shaped recovery of 2021—certain thematic ETFs, like the iShares MSCI Brazil ETF, significantly outperformed broader indices such as the S&P 500. Our portfolio enables traders to participate in similar trends, adapting quickly to shifting market dynamics with precision and speed.

Rents remain far above pre-COVID levels. Use this tool to check prices in your area
After seven years of work and more than $18 million invested, Harbor Village, a new affordable housing development in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, officially opened its doors in January. The 40-unit rental development came together thanks to Safe Harbour, a housing nonprofit based in Carlisle. By the time Safe Harbour started screening prospective tenants, there were over 400 applications, said Scott Shewell, the group's long-time president and CEO. 'And I still get calls every day,' he told USA TODAY. The median apartment rent in Carlisle was $1,259 in May. It was one of the fastest-growing areas for rent prices that month, up 6% from a year ago, according to a USA TODAY analysis of Apartment List data. Shewell wasn't surprised. The area, he said, has seen blockbuster growth over the past several years and even well-meaning local governments committed to affordable housing haven't been able to keep up with the demand. Population in Carlisle borough has gone up nearly 12% since 2020, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. In May, Manhattan, Kansas, led other metros as the fastest-growing market in rental prices. The metro saw a 14% increase in rent prices from the same month last year. It was followed by Abilene, Texas; Grand Forks, North Dakota-Minnesota and Shreveport-Bossier City, Louisiana. Recent data shows that the rental prices in most metro areas have leveled off, but for millions of renters, the typical rent still remains dramatically higher than it was before the COVID-19 pandemic began. The USA TODAY analysis of Apartment List data for 202 metro areas found that average monthly rent between January and May was significantly higher in 94% of the metros, compared with the same period in 2019. Excluding the handful that stayed about the same as pre-pandemic levels, the data showed that prices were up by an average of 31%. The pandemic supercharged the rental market, breaking old patterns of steady growth as the population shuffled, cities closed, and people started working from home. After a short drop in rental prices, prices rebounded aggressively, hitting record highs before flattening in the latter half of 2022. The impact has been felt across the board, from Manhattan in New York City to Manhattan in Kansas. The Apartment List data shows that the new level remained steady in May 2025, which, although a relief, does not do away with the rent burden the already high prices have put on families. According to census data, about 25% of renters in America are so rent-burdened that they spent more than half of their income on rent in 2023. That figure was 22% in 2019. A three-percentage point difference means millions more Americans are spending a substantial chunk of their paycheck in rent. When these high prices were accompanied by broader inflation in groceries, gas and energy, the strain was felt by families – charting up as a top issue in the 2024 presidential election, in which Americans elected President Donald Trump who centered his campaign on bringing down prices. Housing market experts say that the rental market might have settled on a new baseline, which means prices might not go back down to what they were in 2019. Read more: Work from home is reshaping the housing market 5 years after COVID Rob Warnock, a senior research associate at Apartment List, said a reversal to pre-pandemic prices is unlikely, as we're now at a level for how much housing costs. 'More realistic than rent prices coming down is rent prices stabilizing at a place where incomes can catch up,' Warnock said. For now, two trends in the market have emerged to keep the rental prices at a stable level: slowed rental demand and a recent construction frenzy. 'The past year has been really defined by a lot of new housing construction that was built over the previous three years, coupled with fairly low demand in the rental market,' Warnock said. 'As a result, what we see is that prices are largely flat, if not down.' There are only a handful of metros where rent prices have decreased over the past year. Notable among them is Bozeman, Montana, where people flocked during the pandemic for lower costs and outdoor spaces while working remotely. '(It) expedited everyone's decision-making to move to a town like Bozeman. There's a lot of fantasy around it,' said Casey Rose, an adviser at Sterling Commercial Real Estate Advisors. Amid the increased demand in the Montana mountain metro, developers started to build apartments. Many of the projects were delivered at the same time, which resulted in very low vacancy rates, Rose said. Compared with last year, rents in Bozeman are down roughly 10%, the second largest decline, according to the Apartment List data. But the actual prices, Rose said, can be masked by incentives like offering two months of free rent, or even a free iPad, TV, or ski pass. A similar pattern has played out in Austin, where rental prices are down 6.4% compared with a year ago. Stacey Auzanne, a property manager and a third-generation Austin resident, watched pandemic digital nomads flood into the city, while builders kept erecting new developments, creating a supply glut that kept rental prices suppressed. Auzanne, who manages dozens of properties, said the landlords she works with are holding rents steady, with one even dropping the price $50 a month. It's worth it to keep good tenants in place, she said – particularly in a market where there's more supply than demand. 'The market just kept accelerating and the bubble burst,' Auzanne said. 'This year, we're really feeling it.' Experts raised concerns that prices could go up because of the changing political landscape that has seen a stringent tariff policy and crackdown on immigrants who form a large part of the construction workforce. While housing inflation has dropped from its peak of over 8% in early 2023, costs have not fallen as quickly as overall inflation. According to consumer price index data released by the Labor Department on Wednesday, rent inflation was at 3.8% in May, the smallest annual increase since January 2022. This slowdown reflects lower rents for new leases finally filtering into rates for existing tenants. While the overall rise in consumer prices was modest in May, housing costs remained the largest contributor to inflation, accounting for 35% of all price increases.
