Are skyrocketing grocery prices impacting your budget? Have you seen a painful spike in rent or utility bills? People across the country are feeling the firsthand effects of today’s historically high inflation rates.

When factoring the impact of rising consumer costs, average hourly earnings declined by as much as three percent in September, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics

For seniors, Social Security benefits are set to undergo the fourth-largest cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) rise in January 2023, since automatic inflation increases were introduced nearly 50 years ago. The 8.7 percent boost will increase checks by an average of $146.

While no one knows how long this financial crunch will last, there are steps you can take to supplement your income and give you and your family more financial flexibility. 

Supplement your income with flexible gig work

If you’re looking for ways to supplement your income, you can use your conversational skills and tech-savvy knowledge to provide remote customer service on the Arise® Platform.

Once you register, you’ll be a few weeks away from earning money from the convenience of your own home, choosing your own hours and working when it best suits you and your current schedule. You can use the platform to make money year-round. At the same time, you’ll enjoy supplemental income for as long as you decide to work. 

Work and earn as much as you want

When you work in a conventional role, you can be limited by how much you can earn. In times of inflation, that can create a tricky situation. You’re working the same amount, but your pay hasn’t gone up, and your dollars don’t go as far. That’s not an issue when you use the Arise® Platform.

There are so many exciting client programs on the platform right now, so you’ll never have to worry about running out of work. Even better, the range of opportunities ensures you’ll always have a say in when and how you want to work. If one client program’s schedule doesn’t work for you, sign up for a different one that does. 

Plus, if you have the ability to work more, then you’ll be able to earn more, too!

Be the boss of your future

Many experts agree that inflation rates will likely stick around for the next few years. While no one has a crystal ball to predict the end of this inflationary season, it’s safe to assume prices will remain high for a while.
