There’s a lot of iconic homes from TV and film and one of my favorite movie houses is for sale in New York City.
There’s some TV shows and movies where the homes where they stories took place become just as memorable as some of the characters or story lines. Think Full House, The Fresh Prince, The Brady Bunch, and Friends just to name a few. Home Alone has another one of those houses. In fact, before moving to Fort Myers, I lived not too far from where that house is in the Chicago suburb of Winnetka. That movie holds a lot of tradition for me and my family. Every year after Thanksgiving dinner at my grandma and grandpa’s house, we’d watch that movie before heading back home. When dinner eventually shifted to our house, we kept the tradition alive, and since I’ve moved out, no matter where I am on Thanksgiving, I keep the tradition alive. I always try to stay up for Home Alone 2 right after, but after all that turkey, it’s not always easy.

The New York City townhouse from Home Alone 2 has just hit the market for $6.7 million.
I love New York City and every time I’m there, I dream about a life of walking those city streets, visiting those downtown cathedrals, shopping on 5th Ave..all the things. And if you too have had that dream, this townhouse may be right up your alley. Add to that, owning a piece of movie history. The townhouse is in the Upper West Side and is a nearly 4800 square foot, 4 bed- 4 1/2 bath home. In the movie, it was Kevin’s Uncle’s home, the spot where he once again outsmarted the Sticky Bandits.

10 Southwest Florida Side Hustles To Help Pay Off Those Holiday Bills
It’s the holiday season and there’s one thing we probably all have in common. We spent more than we should have and ran up the credit cards. Another thing coming up on Florida homeowners is when the mortgage company factors in the much higher insurance premiums into your monthly mortgage payment. My ‘escrow’ part of my mortgage payment is higher than my principle and interest combined. If you’re a renter, you may have already been hit with a rent increase to start the new year. With all these bills increasing, we’re going to need some Southwest Florida side hustles to help. We’re going to need to find a way to make some more money.
There’s plenty of resources online for side hustles on sites like gobankingrates, CNBC, and others, but those are more on a national level. I wanted a list that was more specific to those in Florida, and more specifically, Southwest Florida. I’ve compiled 10 different ideas that work for us. In some cases, I’ve even added a story of someone already doing it. This isn’t a list of how to find a different job. It’s some ideas on ways to find another job. I’ve even included one of my side hustles onto this list. We’re all just trying to get by. Myself included.
There’s so many things to do in this town that fall outside the realm of a ‘regular job.’ Remember back during COVID and people were lining up at Hammond Stadium to get jabbed? People working at those booths were doing it as a side job. There’s a lot of Southwest Florida side hustles if you keep your eyes open and be open to new adventures.

And this is not definitive. Treat this more as an idea starter. If you can come up with a niche that no one else is doing, your side hustle could out earn your main job. But a basic rule to remember, don’t focus so much on your side job that you jeopardize your main job.
