Meth labs don't take up much space; but you need to be careful about
cops and chemicals.
If you are in Nevada, you could get a brothel license.

Those were not exactly what I had in mind.

Hmmmmm. Ok then, here are 9 other ideas that are fun ways to make a
little extra cash!

1. Open a chinese restaraunt (This has an added bonus - if the old lady
threatens to leave again, you can make her into chop suey!)
2. Drive-ins are making a comeback, and you have enough land for a
really nice one.
3. Go cart tracks can be fun and profitable.
4. Many people have made millions by opening a bowling alley.
5. If you have any large rivers running through your property, you
could build a dam, generate electricity, and sell it back to the grid.
6. Subdivide the land, and sell 5000 10'x10' house lots.
7. Dig a hole to Australia, install a tram, and open a travel service
that guarantees 2 minute round trips between the US and Australia!
8. Rent your land to a junk dealer. Nothing thrills neighbors like
acres of rusty cars!
9. You could open a shady rest cemetary.

10. Auction off a body part like maybe your left testicle or something on
Ebay ???

Go to a nearby store. Look around at all the things that
you wish you had, but that cost too much. Make those,
and you will find out WHY they cost so much.

Even though your office job may limit the amount of time you can spend
doing something else there is a demand for home repairs and the like.

What you are going to have to do is first decide on the kind of work
that you can and are able to do then you will have to let people know
that you are open for business. I don't know how far you want to take
this "side" business but regardless you should have a business plan.
You need to scope your immediate and local area and find out how best
to get your customers.

Believe me I live in an older, historic area which means the houses
are more than 100 years old which means that there is always some kind
of repair that needs to be done. You should also tap into that market
that doesn't have the time or the knowledge to repair their own
things.

Can you be cheap ? I mean only charge like $5 to walk out to your garage
and waste a few minutes chitt chatting.

Welding, lots of people need something small welded yet when they go to or
call a welding shop the minimum charge gives them sticker shock big time.
Figure out how/where to advertise your handy dandy welding services and
spell it out you're cheap on small stuff and they'll beat a path to your
door....
Most people have a problem with the fact that it takes a long time for a new
endeavor to build business volume. Things start so slow they give up
easily - gotta advertise and actually promote yourself over a long time even
if its those hateful bulletin board and door fliers to build up your small
part time business.
