Nothing other than stock investments and divided’s. After working 40+ hours a week at my day job, trying to spend some time with my wife and 2 year old daughter, and maintain my “fixer upper” house I have 0 left for these “side hustles”.

Ive came to the conclusion you can do three things well at any one time. So if u have work and family then that's two, and the problem with spending the third task on a tech side hustle is you risk burn out
That is so true! Each time I intend splitting this 3rd part into smaller projects, I end up focusing on one only, and indeed lack of sleep breaks me.
That’s why I prefer side hustle “experiments”. If anything looks promising work it a bit further, then perhaps bet a bit more on it (money or time).
any particular fund you can recommend?
I don’t invest in funds, I only buy individual stocks. I also exclusively trade tech stocks, because that is the industry I know. I pretty much take all the financial advice you would get from an advisor and toss it out the window. My current positions are in AMD, CRM, TEAM, NET, SQ, CRWD, DOCN, and AAPL.
Put it all in VTI and you will do better then almost all investors in the long run!
