Diversify in order to make a much better income

To make room for more specific goals.

I’m currently a marriage & family therapist in private practice. I see about 20 clients per week, which is bringing in a decent income. However, it is not allowing me to save any money for emergencies, vacations, etc., which is a little stressful.

So I was thinking…what else could I do (with the other hours of my week), and I thought of two things.

1) A billing service for other therapists. There is a need for this in my area, and I don’t mind doing all the insurance, billing, etc. I could bring in $350 per month per therapist, so that’s good.

and/or

2) Becoming a realtor. I put in a call to my local Century 21 today to see if it’s even feasible schedule-wise to combine this with my private practice.

The van is making a funny noise, our bathtub needs replaced, and I desperately need new clothes after losing 20 pounds. Also we like to eat and put gas in the cars.

This goal is a priority.
