Welcome back to Gen Z: Unfiltered! In Episode 2, we’re talking about money — but not the 9-to-5 kind. In our first episode, we uncovered the everyday challenges Gen Z faces — from toxic expectations to family pressure.

Now, we’re flipping the script: it's time to talk strategy, survival, and side hustles.This episode explores how Gen Z is making money — often in unconventional and "unconditional" ways — from content creation and Forex trading, to selling thrifted clothes, and even OnlyFans, sperm/egg donation, and home businesses.

We ask:

💡 What does it mean to "work" in 2025?

📲 How has the internet changed our hustle?

💸 Why are so many Gen Zs turning to side hustles and controversial paths just to get by?

🧠 What are the emotional and ethical costs of doing what it takes to survive?

From the glam of social media to the unseen weight of modern hustle culture, this episode is as real as it gets. This isn’t just about making money — it’s about reclaiming power in a system that wasn’t built for us.

🎧 Tune in, reflect, and let us know in the comments: What’s the wildest way you’ve seen someone make money in our generation?
