5 Claude AI “Second Incomes” That Can Replace Your Full Time Job

Watch on YouTube

Video summary

The video outlines five specific ways to generate a "second income" using AI tools like Claude that have the potential to replace a full-time salary, emphasizing that these opportunities often require no degree, prior experience, or significant upfront capital. The core argument is that the most valuable skill employers currently seek is the ability to leverage AI, which allows individuals from any background—including those who are unemployed, raising children, or nearing retirement—to monetize their existing knowledge. The presenter highlights that while many people struggle to find work due to automated resume filters, combining human expertise with AI assistance can bypass these barriers and create high-value services for clients willing to pay for results rather than just tools. The first two examples discussed are becoming a "ghostwriter" for dating apps and providing IT support for small businesses. In the dating niche, individuals can charge monthly retainers to rewrite profiles and craft flirtatious messages using AI, with some professionals earning up to $20,000 a month by managing a limited number of clients or scaling through content creation. Similarly, the video suggests that non-technical people can become virtual IT departments for local businesses by using AI to diagnose software errors, write repair scripts, and generate documentation, potentially earning over $17,000 monthly from just ten clients. The presenter stresses that documenting these processes on YouTube is crucial for scaling income, noting that even those with no prior tech experience or camera skills can succeed by following structured systems. The remaining three opportunities involve writing resumes to help job seekers pass automated screening software, negotiating medical bills to save families thousands of dollars, and coding micro-apps without traditional programming knowledge. Resume writers can specialize in specific industries to charge premium rates for ATS-optimized documents that get past the "robot" filters. Medical bill negotiators use AI to identify billing errors and draft dispute letters, a practice that has saved millions collectively given the massive amount of uncollected medical debt in the US. Finally, the video introduces "vibe coding," where users prompt AI to build functional apps for niche problems, allowing non-developers to sell digital products or solve their own inefficiencies before offering solutions to others. Throughout the presentation, the speaker repeatedly promotes a free live training session designed to teach viewers exactly how to execute these strategies, including how to use specific AI tools like a "niche validator" to find profitable topics. The video concludes by acknowledging that while most viewers will benefit from the free resources and training, a small percentage may seek expensive one-on-one mentorship for personalized strategy and execution. Ultimately, the message is that the new economy rewards those who adapt quickly to AI, turning everyday skills into lucrative side hustles that can eventually become full-time careers without needing to quit existing jobs immediately.

So, these are going to be five clai second incomes that can replace your full-time income. And I promise at least one of them is going to fit you and your situation. Now, most don't ask for a degree, experience, or money to start. And a few of them you can actually start today. Now, I went $300,000 in student loan debt for a doctorate before I figured out how money actually gets made. So, I built a career channel that I wish I had when I was trying to figure out what career to go into, and I now have over a,000 people that have verified testimonials from acting on it. Now, here's what most people don't know yet. Manpower Group surveyed 39,000 employers and the number one skill that they can't find anymore is people who can use AI. So, your experience that you already have right now can be a gold mine if you combine it with the skill of AI. And it doesn't matter if you have no degree or you're laid off, you're raising kids at home or you're on the older side and you're looking to retire or you're stuck in a job that caps out. There's going to be an option in this list that's going to be good for you. Now, every claim comes from a name source like Business Insider, Fortune, CNBC, Glass Door on the screen as we go with receipts. Plus, I'm going to be showing real examples and real people doing these exact second incomes on the screen as I go along. And the one that I'd actually do myself is going to be hiding in the back half. So, if you appreciate me making these types of videos, you want to see me make more of them in the future, then let me know by gently cheersing that like button and let's jump into it right now. Okay, so first one on the list I'm going to talk about is a ghost rider. And I always like to start these videos off with kind of a weird or a boring one or just one that makes you go, "Wow!" because I want to show you that in this new economy, there's so many ways to make money, even with things that 10 years ago you never could have made a living from. And so, specifically, we're going to talk about a dating app, Ghostriter. And yes, this is exactly what it sounds like. Single people pay you a monthly retainer to rewrite their dating profile and ghostrite their replies. Now, you might be thinking, there's no way that people pay real money for this, Shane. Well, actually, The Hustle profiled a woman named Meredith Golden, who charges up to $2,000 a month per client, and she caps herself at 10 clients. So, 10 lonely clients, 20 grand a month. But again, you might be thinking, "Okay, Shane, but who in the heck on earth is going to pay a stranger to flirt with them?" Well, more people than you think. For instance, there's a video called I paid a matchmaker $21,848 to help me find love. And it got over $44,000 views, and it's just a regular guy documenting what he spent on professional dating help. So, a $500 a month ghost rider is the budget option. But you also might be thinking, "Well, Shane, sure you can make a little bit of money from this, but helping to text people is beer money, right? You can't actually make a real income from this, right? Well, Starter Story did a breakdown of Blake Anderson. His first app was RizGPT, and that is an AI that writes people's dating replies. And his three AI apps have earned over $10 million. But you might be thinking, "Yeah, but they'll just download the $10 RZ app themselves. Yeah, people don't typically like to pay for tools because that means it's going to take a lot of their time to get results. They'd rather just pay for done for you." And the next web reports that 49% of Gen Z daters already use AI. And one hinge match flat out admitted to using Claude. And a 26-year-old dating coach doing this done for you says that she makes €103,000 a month. And I would know that the relationship niche pays really well. And it pays better when you own the audience. So instead of ghostwriting for one person at a time, you can make one video and blast it out to thousands of people. Just like Damon and Kennedy, they sell a $2,500 relationship offer and made their first sale on day 20 after joining our private community. And they basically help Christian couples find their ideal partner. And in their words, they say they help Christian partners find their kingdom partner. So you can write messages for $50 a pop. Don't get me wrong, that's a good place to start. Or you can be the person that people come to about their love life. And from this channel, they could sell just about any of these other products that we talk about. So here's how you actually do this with Cloud. Screenshot the match's profile and the conversation and ask for three replies in your client's voice. Confident, playful, no cringe. Then send the best one and keep the retainer. Now, that's a very basic way of doing it with Claude. But with a lot of these apps, there's actually an API. So, you can actually just connect Claude to the API and have it do it automatically. Or if they don't allow API, you can use Claude to set up some sort of app or software on your computer that's connected to the dating apps and respond that way. Now, this may be against the app's terms of service. So, make sure you check that out. And because of that, it's likely a good idea to just use an existing software because they've probably figured out how to get around that. With that being said, sometimes you can fish for the person and they'll enjoy that. And sometimes you can just teach the person how to fish for themselves and then you feed them for the rest of their life. That's exactly what Damon and Kennedy are doing. They teach the person how to find their kingdom partner and they're making a full-time income from that. YouTube and building your personal brand just got 10 times easier and nobody's talking about it. And the reason it got 10 times easier is because of AI and specifically cloud AI. That's what we're going to be talking about in this week's live training that we're doing. Click the link down in the description in the pin comment below. I will be there. I'll be answering questions before, during, and after. We'll also be giving you an AI that's been designed to help you pick your niche if you don't have one in the first place, or if you already have one, it's going to help you make it 10 times better. So, we worked very hard on this AI. People absolutely love it. We've literally gotten hundreds of comments from people that love it. So, you do not want to miss out on it. And if you're watching this in the future for whatever reason or it's already past the time of the live training, still click on that link because we will be having more live trainings in the future and you will be the first person to know cuz it'll put you on a wait list for that. But with that being said, it's completely free. No reason not to attend. Click that link in the description in the pin comment below and I'll see you on the other side. Okay, so now that we got the weird one out of the way, let's talk about the boring one and that is doing IT support for small businesses because as they say there's billions in the boring. So, every small business runs on computers, printers, Wi-Fi, and email. And almost none of them have an IT guy or IT girl. So, you can become their nights and weekends IT department, and you can stack monthly clients. But you might be thinking, "Okay, Shane, but I'm not technical. I could never do it." Well, even the White House disagrees. There's a video called White House says no degree. It has around 200,000 views from Network Chuck, and he's a former help desk guy whose channel now has 5.35 million subscribers. And the government threw out the degree requirement and Claude throws out the experience requirement. But again, you might be thinking, "Sure, but fixing computers on the side is just beer money." Well, tell that to Salem Techs. He has no formal education, and those are his words, not mine. And he runs a one-man repair shop inside of a Subway restaurant. And he moved up to monthly IT contracts with business clients, and 2.74 million people subscribe just to watch him work. And the contract math is simple. 10 small business clients on managed services runs about $17,333 a month. Now, of course, you could do this by repairing physical things. But you could also just do it by helping people with software online. And here's how you'd actually do this with Claude. So, let's just say that this error message pops up when you're trying to solve this problem. Paste the error message or a photo of the screen and it tells you what's wrong. Then, write me the script that fixes this on all 12 machines. And then at the end of the visit, turn my notes into client documentation in an invoice. So, you bring the screwdriver and the handshake. And Claude brings 20 years of experience. Now, this is the basic way of doing it. Of course, I'm not going to deep dive into how to do this on this video, but you can also just have Claude look at your screen. So, just as an example, we did this a few months back where we were having a huge issue with our Facebook account, and Facebook basically changes up their settings all the time. And so, you have to constantly relearn the platform every time you want to go in and change a setting. Someone who's very tech-savvy was right next to me helping me try to do this, and we couldn't figure out how to do it in over an hour. And so, what did we do? We just turned on AI, had it look at our screen, and it told us exactly what to do. And I was really skeptical at first, but it actually figured out the place to go and it solved the problem for us, which was absolutely mind-blowing. Now, there's a lot of money when it comes to this way of making a second income, but there's even more money when you document how you're doing it. So, he's basically getting paid to do a side hustle, plus he's making more money on top by documenting it. Now, you might be thinking, "Okay, Shane, well, that sounds great, but I have no experience with YouTube. I don't know where to start." And the truth is, every single way of making a second income that you hear about online, they all work. But the problem is they all need traffic. And YouTube is a great way of getting traffic. In fact, by far it's the best way, especially if you're making the type of channel where you're just very simply helping people solve problems, where it's 10 times easier to get views and make money. But you might be thinking, "Okay, Shane, well, that sounds great, but I have no experience with YouTube. I don't know where to start." Well, if that's the case, then you were on the same exact boat with my brother when he first started. And just for context, my brother has been working in the trades for almost 30 years now, and it's taking a toll on his body. So, one day while we were on vacation, he pulled me on the side and he asked me, "Hey, bro, how can I make money without breaking my body anymore?" And he thought that I was going to tell him to get an online certification or get a remote job or search the internet for a side hustle or maybe get some kind of cushy office job. But I told him, "No, bro. Just do YouTube." And he was like, "No, I can't do that. I'm in my 50s. No one wants to listen to a 50-year-old. YouTube and social media is for doing dances and pranks. I'm not techsavvy. I don't know where to set up a camera to record my video. I've never recorded a single video in my life." He basically gave me every excuse in the book that he can think of to not start YouTube. But I told him, "Bro, just trust me. Just follow every single thing that I say and you'll succeed." And he did listen to me. And his very first video that he posted blew up and got over $800,000 views. And 29 days after uploading that very first video, he had a $214 day. So that's a $78,000 year run rate. So he went from zero to full-time income in less than one month. And to end his first year on YouTube, he had an over $18,000 month. And notice every excuse that he gave me. Claude and the system that I was just talking about for making content deletes that now. And this doesn't even have to be about jobs. Maybe you got a talent that nobody knows about, right? Maybe you can draw or sing or do something that you do for free. Anyways, take Isaiah Harris. His passion is singing and he's pretty good at it. And he has a channel about teaching singers how to sing better. And I really like his stories cuz he was about to get laid off from his sales job when he found my free content. And he followed every step in my videos on how to grow and make money with YouTube. And then he showed up to my live training, more on that here in a moment. And he asked me questions about his niche. And off of the free stuff alone, he hit $20,000 in a single month and recently messaged me and said that his channel crossed over $100,000 in revenue. But Shane, I have a job. I don't like it, but I can't quit yet. Then don't. Richard Walls didn't. He was a product manager at a Fortune50 company, working 60 to 80 plus hours per week at the company alone. Plus, he had a new baby. Plus, he had a bunch of rental properties and a bunch of investments that he had to manage. And he was one of the busiest community members that I've ever taken on. He was so busy that he could barely even respond to my emails. and he could only work about two hours a month on his channel, but he still hit $12,000 in a single month on that channel. And he didn't have to quit his busy job. And again, he was one of the busiest people I've ever worked with. So whether you're a total beginner like my brother, you've got a passion that you want to build around like Isaiah, or you're very busy with a job like Richard, if you want to learn how to actually get traffic to any of these second incomes that you pick so that you're playing the game of making money on easy mode, then go ahead and attend my live training this week by clicking the first link in the description in the pin comment below. At this live training, I'll be teaching you step by step as a complete beginner, even if you don't have technical skills exactly how to grow and monetize your YouTube channel. And additionally, I'll teach you how to syndicate that content other platforms, so you can make even extra money with very little extra work. I'll also be giving away my niche validator pro, which is a tool that we spent hundreds of hours creating, and we have literally gotten hundreds of comments from people that say it's like the best AI tool they've ever used. And it's going to help you pick your niche in the first place, or if you already have a niche, it'll help you dial it in and make it 10 times better. And the training itself is completely free. The niche validator pro is also completely free. So you absolutely have to show up to this live training. Click that link in the description in the pin comment below. Last time we did it, we completely ran out of spots. People were literally trying to get in. But unfortunately, there's a maximum amount of people that can be in the live training. Right? So do not miss out on it. Click that link. And even if you're watching this in the future or for whatever reason you were too late and you couldn't get in, still click that link because it'll automatically put you on a wait list to attend the next live training that we do. And I'll be answering questions before, during, and after. So, I look forward to seeing you there. All right, next one we're going to talk about is a ré writer. So, job seekers pay you per resume, cover letter, and LinkedIn profile because the version that they wrote themselves keeps getting ghosted. But you might be thinking, "Come on, Shane. Who pays a stranger to write their resume?" Uh, actually, this is a massive industry. So, CNBC profiled a middle school teacher named Richard Lambert with zero recruiting credentials, and he started selling résumés at $55 each on Fiverr. Now, that's just how he started, but he ended up making over $2 million in lifetime sales. and he quit teaching years ago. But you might be thinking, "Okay, but 55 bucks a resume is beer money." Come on, guys. You know, this has got to be more than beer money. See, you can stack it. The RSé writer's own association says that full-timers typically charge $300 to $1,200 per project and earn $60 to $100,000 plus dollars a year. And there's a video breaking down a $2,000 a month ré second income side hustle built entirely on LinkedIn outreach. Because Fortune reports that 75% of résumés never even reach a human, so the software filters them out first. And there's even a creator who filmed himself paying a fiber writer $90 for an ATS optimized resume and then recommending it afterwards. So people pay because somebody has to beat the robot. And then once it gets past the robot, it's got to look good to an actual human being. And here's how you'd actually do this with Claude. Paste the client's work history and the job posting. Tell it to rewrite the resume around that listing's keyword. Then draft the cover letter and you deliver the same date. Now with this one, it's definitely best to niche down and specialize and pick a career that you're helping people get into that you are familiar with. This is exactly what Davis, one of our community members, did when he started off by just literally helping people write their resumes to get into management consulting jobs. And that business that just started as a second income while he was still doing his job ended up turning into a 7 figure a year business. And he expanded from résumés to also helping them optimize their LinkedIn profiles, helping them do portfolio projects, helping them gather the right experience in the first place, helping them pass the interviews. And he basically just created an entire consulting business that sole goal is to get the person results. to basically get them a management consulting job. And what do you know, his YouTube channel was a massive part of his strategy to get clients. All right, next one we're going to talk about is a medical bill negotiator. So, this is the person that a family hires to fight a hospital bill that they can't afford. So, you find the billing errors, you dispute them, and you keep a flat fee or a cut of the savings. Now, I used to be a pharmacist. Like I said before, I got a doctorate, went $300,000 in student loan debt in order to get a good job as a pharmacist, and I got into the healthcare industry. And I can tell you the healthcare industry in the United States is very messed up. Okay, especially now that I've traveled all over the world, I have gotten much better service from other countries at a fraction of the cost. Now, that's a topic for a different video, of course. But let's talk about how you can help people save money in the United States healthcare system. Because you might be thinking, "This sounds made up, Shane. You can't just argue with a hospital." Well, actually, you can. Business Insider told the story of a guy who did. Matt Rosenberg's brother-in-law died of a heart attack and the hospital build the family $195,000 for the final four hours of care. And he pasted the itemized bill into Claude and it flagged $77,400 in supplies build against Medicare's own rules plus a procedure that never happened. And his six-page dispute letter settled the whole thing at $32,500. So that's $163,000 savings because somebody finally checked. You might be thinking, "Okay, Shane, well that's just one lucky guy. This isn't an actual second income that you can make. Well, NBC Bay Area profiled a woman that they literally called the bill fighter and she charges a flat fee under $2,000. And her wins include $140,000 air ambulance bill. And the professional association lists just 149 private patient advocates in the entire country. 149 for all of America. Sure, Shane, but is fighting other people's bills really replace your income type money? Well, there's a whole company built on it called Goodill and their pricing is 20% of every dollar that they save. No license required. So, yeah, there is actual demand for this and there are a lot of people out there that are making money doing this. And one of the biggest things is I think a lot of Americans aren't even aware of the fact that they can negotiate these bills. And Americans are sitting on $220 billion of medical debt. So, the case files never run out. Yeah, but the hospital billing department won't budge for an amateur with AI. Well, they already are. NBC News covered a stage 4 cancer patient who was denied her treatment for 9 months and a 23-page AI written appeal got it approved in 2 days. And the same report says that insurers deny 19% of claims while fewer than 1% of people ever appeal. And the whole system is priced on nobody fighting back. And you don't even have to fight bills to get paid in this lane. You could just teach people how the health system works in general as well. For instance, nurse Jyn, one of our community members, was a burnedout nurse with 33 years of experience who started answering her patients questions on camera. And some of her first videos hit 600, 700, even 800,000 views. And the first month after she was monetized, she made $6,000, then $8,000. Then the month after that, it was $10,500. And that was all just from AdSense alone. And she recorded all of her videos on a laptop webcam. And because of this, she was able to quit her nursing job. And now she's traveling around the country in a camper van, literally living her dream life. So if you don't think second incomes are possible, they absolutely are. And by the way, we're going to go more into her story in the live training that we're doing this week. So, click that link in the description in the pin comment below. I might even try to get Zach or Nurse Jen on the call. Now, here's a simple version to get you started with how you can actually run this with Claude. Paste the itemized bill with the billing codes. Ask it to flag everything unbundled, duplicated, or never performed. Then, tell it to write the dispute letter. And that's a really good place to get you started doing this. And honestly, you're doing God's work here. All right. The next second income is going to be coding micro apps. So, this is where you would basically build a micro app with Claude Code. And you're basically going to sell small paid apps, tools, and websites to niche audiences and local businesses without knowing how to code because Claude Code does the actual coding for you. And I know that you think you probably need to know how to code to build a real app, but not anymore. Entrepreneur calls this the $4.7 billion vibe coding boom. And 63% of people doing it are non-developers. And the article names a guy with no coding background charging $750 to $2,500 per app. But you might be thinking, "Okay, Shane, but where would a total beginner go to even learn this?" Well, there's lots and lots of free courses on YouTube that tell you exactly how to code with Claude Code. You might also be thinking, "Yeah, but I already have a full-time job. There's no time to build an app inside of a side hustle or a second income." Well, Justin Lob was exactly that guy, a full-time 9 to5 with no spare hours, and he built his app to $20,000 a month anyways, solo. Now, with that being said, building an app and then selling it is one thing, and that is very difficult. I'm not going to lie, very high chance of failure. But if your app actually works, it can be a complete gamecher and it probably has the highest ceiling on this entire list. But what I think is more realistic for the average person is find a problem that people have, maybe even a set of problems altogether that a particular niche of people have and then build an app that solves that problem more efficiently and instead of selling it to them, just use it yourself and then just solve the problem for them. That's exactly what we did for instance with the niche validator. We've helped thousands of people pick their ideal niche. And so we took what we learned from helping those thousands of people and we turned it into an AI app that helps you pick your niche in the first place if you don't have it or make your niche 10 times better if you already have one. It's been trained on people that were successful as well as people that were unsuccessful and why they were successful or unsuccessful. And it has literally gotten hundreds of comments from people that are absolutely obsessed with how good it is. And we're going to be giving that away at the live training that we're doing this week. So click the link in the description in the pin comment below to get a hold of that. And again, the live training is going to fill up very fast. We only have a limited amount of people that we can accept to it. So, don't wait now. And additionally, I'm going to go over exactly how I helped nurse Jyn as well as my brother Zach with a step-by-step guide to get started yourself and it is all completely free. So, there's no excuse not to attend it. Even if you're watching this in the future, we'll still be doing it at least for the rest of the month of September. So, click that link in the description and the pin comment below and we look forward to seeing you there. With that being said, I know that 99% of you are just going to watch this video, get a ton of value out of it. You're going to use my resources like the niche validator, get a ton of value out of that, and I would highly recommend that you attend the live training because that's super valuable. But the truth is, for 99% of you, we are never going to end up working together. And that's completely fine. I always want to give way more value than what I receive. But there's going to be 1% of you out there, maybe 0.1% of you out there that wants a one-on-one mentorship experience. So, you want us to one-on-one mentor you or you want us to literally just do the work for you when it comes to growing and making money with your Claude Second Income and specifically promoting it with YouTube and then syndicating that content to the other platforms. Right? So, you might want expert personalized one-on-one advice on picking your niche, picking your product, which video ideas to do, your overall strategy, etc., etc. So, if that sounds like you, go ahead and click that second link in the description and the pin comment below to book a call with us. On this call, we'll figure out where you are right now, where you want to be. We'll make a plan to get there and we'll see if we're a good fit to work together or not. Only book the call if you are very serious about growing and making money on YouTube. We're very limited with the amount of people that we can work with and our one-on-one programs are very expensive because they're very expensive for us to put on. We have over 20 people working to help people get results, but that's why we have by far the best results in the industry. So, the types of people we typically work with are professionals with at least 10 years of experience or people that are overachievers. We actually prefer working with people on the older side because we found that they have more wisdom, more experience, and they simply have more problems that they've overcome in their life and they're able to help more people because of that. For instance, we work with a lot of online businesses, but we also work with in-person businesses like realtors. For instance, Craig, for instance, is a realtor in his late60s and he has one of the biggest realy businesses in Montana and he was posting on YouTube for years spinning his wheels and then one of his first videos with us got over a 100,000 views. We also work with YouTubers who are getting a lot of views but they're struggling with monetization. An example of that would have been Jud. Jud already had hundreds of thousands of subscribers, but he was having a lot of trouble monetizing his channel. We helped him monetize his channel, and we 3xed his income in a very short period of time. We also work with YouTubers who are crushing it, but they want to crush it even harder. For instance, Shawn was already making $30,000 a month on YouTube. And using our systems, we helped him scale all the way to $500,000 in a single month. And we also work with people who have large followings on other social media platforms, but they want to bring their audience over to YouTube because they know YouTube is the best. For instance, Phah was really big on Tik Tok, but she was having trouble monetizing that Tik Tok audience. And so, she wanted to grow her YouTube channel, so she didn't have to worry about the ups and downs of short form content, and we helped her do exactly that. She's now making a full-time income with a tiny channel on YouTube. And when it comes to online business owners, Carla has an online recruiting business, and she had a tiny channel of about 1,500 subscribers, and most of her videos only got 100 to 200 views, but she was able to close a $100,000 contract with YouTube.
