Author: Abdelaziz

I am Abdelaziz, a geotechnical engineer who has worked on projects in France, Morocco and internationally. I write and edit every guide on hustle&passive. Each income idea comes with the same three numbers: realistic pay, hours per week and startup cost. When I have tested something myself, I say what happened, including what failed. When I have not, I name the sources the figures come from. Read more about me and how each guide is researched.
