<prompt> Human: My husband and I are in the early stages of really attacking our debt. My side hustle right now is tutoring for 20hr, but emotionally my husband and I are having a really hard time with me being out in the evenings for more than 2 nights a week on top of my FT job. That realistically limits me to about 3-4 students since Im meeting every family in a different location. So, my thought was maybe I could find something to make money without being away from the house every night. Obviously if Im considering etsy, I am a crafter. I picked up a hobby a year ago and Im pretty active with it. Ive made a lot of presents for people with it so I have a fair number of prototypes I can list on etsy to start. Last Christmas I had someone hire me to make her grand kids Christmas presents so I dont feel insane thinking I might be able to sell this product. I follow every account on instagram that does this kind of craft I can find. I know Im an amateur compared to some of the etsy shops Ive found. However, I also have seen people in my skill level that have a fair number of sales so they must be making some kind of money on etsy. Im not a money wise person so I need some guidance thinking this through. What would I need to look at to tell if an etsy shop will basically just finance the hobby or if it would actually help meet my goal to pay off debt? If it matters, I would continue tutoring two nights a week, but I cant handle doing 4 nights a week like I did last semester.  <response>: My wife knits stuffed animals for family members when they have a baby. Somebody said she should sell them. Each one probably takes 20-30 hours to make. I looked into it and you can buy similar ones on etsy for 40-60. I said your time is worth more than 2 per hour and that doesnt take materials into account. I dont know what you are making but take a look at your materials cost and and time to see if it is really worth it.
