I work at a highrise full of old rich people and my side gig is googling solutions to their tech problems. Things like unzooming their iPad, turning the child lock off on their dishwasher, or telling them their power strip is plugged into itself. They are more than happy to throw $40-50 at me for 5 minutes time that saves them hours of frustration or an expensive repair visit.
