This Isn’t The Hustle You’re Used To Hearing About

Unlike most methods of generating a second or third stream of income, job stacking doesn’t require you to learn to code, invest in risky stocks, or shill a digital product.

And it certainly doesn’t require you to climb the corporate ladder or jump through arbitrary hoops to secure a 3%-5% raise.

Instead you

Stocks crash, business fail, layoffs happen, and freelancing work dries up.

And that raise you worked so hard for or that coding bootcamp you paid so much for becomes a waste.

But getting laid off when you have another job, or multiple other jobs, stacked up to fall back on? No big deal!

With job stacking there are no new trades learned, no risky investments, and no fear of losing your only source of income!

This book explores the concept of having multiple jobs and income streams in the modern economy. The author shares his own experiences and insights on how to balance work and life as a job stacker.

I found some parts of the book interesting and helpful, but I also had some issues with it. For example, I disagree with the author’s assumption that we should settle for mediocrity and that most people have this mindset. I think most people aspire to be the best at what they do and pursue excellence.

Also, I think the book lacks practical guidance on how to perform well in different jobs and tasks. It focuses too much on the preparation and planning aspects, such as finding opportunities and scheduling meetings, but not enough on the execution and delivery aspects, such as managing time, energy and quality.

Overall, I think this book is a good introduction to the idea of job stacking, but it could have been more comprehensive and inspiring.

Astonishing that someone made a living this way

I was quite offended on first finding this book and kept hoping it was satire. It seems legitimate though, this person has systematised collecting paycheque for two 40-hour jobs simultaneously and working very little for each - his work is mostly on generating enough appearance of engagement that his paycheques continues.

His opportunity increases during Covid as the number of remote only positions increased. He describes how weakly run companies - where managers do not know how to evaluate output and so focus on availability - cannot spot and remove the low productivity job stackers and keep paying them.

Working in a remote only company myself I wanted to understand his tricks. Once I accepted that as my goal, I could enjoy reading the book. It’s mercifully short.

Well written book about wrong thing. I’ve seen teams of people working on multiple projects at the same time - it’s bullshit. None of the arguments in the book make sense.

My advice: Focus. Don’t try to catch two rabbits.

Very short book that could have been a few blog and/or reddit posts. If you've looked into this, you probably already know everything here, but still I could see this being good to hand off to a friend or someone that you want to introduce to the concept.

Clearly lots of thought has gone into this, even if is written as a slightly protracted rant about the current state of employment. Probably could've have been a blog post!
