If you live in a major metropolitan area where parking is a premium, or near an event location, such as a concert hall or sporting arena, consider renting out your parking space. An added bonus is that having to park your car in a less convenient spot means you’re less likely to use it for every errand, saving you gas.
If you own your home, you may consider taking in a boarder. The extra cash can help you with the mortgage payment, and it’s nice to have company. Do be sure to draw up a lease, just in case company becomes a crowd.
