Two summers ago, recent law school graduate Alison Chan was told she needed to quit her full-time job if she wanted to pass the bar exam.
This year, she's on track to earn an average of $3,750 per month.

"When I did my taxes last year, I realized [my side hustle] was like a second salary," Chan, 29, tells CNBC Make It.
