He have good full time job as software engineering (5 years experience).

He begin side hustle. He join a real estate agency. (which seem unreasonable because he should work in IT industry side hustle, which he have 5 years experience) But most of the time he taking class, and post picture of class on social media.

I am worries. It feel like a cult.

IT side jobs don't really exist, especially if you're looking for cash. You'd almost be better off picking up a part time shift flipping burgers.

What do you mean? Software is everywhere. If nothing better, helping with online presence of small business.

From what I've seen, your $/h for any type of part-time software work is going to be very low.

You know who has no idea what the going rate is for a decent website? Small business owners. That's why they don't have one to begin with.

I've found that if you're going to freelance, you need to do it full time. Your going to be passed over if someone can do it twice as fast for the same rate, so you really have to slash your prices if you want any business.
