Jennifer L.’s Answer

Hi, Nicholas,

First, it would depend upon the amount of spare time you have. If you are playing professionally, I gather that you will be traveling for a good portion of the year, so that may be difficult to have a second job; however, you should definitely develop other interests. You will not be playing baseball forever; or, in the event of an injury, it would be helpful to have a backup plan.

I would be more curious to know what you are studying in school. Whatever your passions are outside of baseball, spend your spare time developing that, whether it is a second job or volunteering in the field.

Jennifer L. recommends the following next steps:

Analyze your available time
Determine where your passions lie
Find opportunities to develop that passion

John’s Answer

If you are playing professional baseball, you wouldn't have time for another job during the season. You could have a job in the off-season.

Vineeth’s Answer

Working a second job will boost your income, especially if you keep your taxes in order, plan your time effectively, and choose your second job wisely. If you choose a job that’s in a completely different industry, you’re less likely to upset your main employer – and you’ll also get the chance to develop new skills.However, second jobs are not appropriate for everyone. Depending on your circumstances, there may be more effective ways to boost your income.

Advantages of Working a Second Job
The primary reason for working a second job is to increase your income. But there are some additional benefits to working a second job:
* Develop your Skill
* Refocus and Job Security
* A Low-Risk Way of Trying a New Career

Even if you’re a high-energy, optimistic type-of-person, juggling two jobs for more than a couple of years may lead to burnout
