The Gig Economy Explained in One Minute: Definition, Job Examples (Uber, Fiverr, Freelancer), etc.

You can't help but hear about the gig economy more and more, about the fact that so many people are choosing to become independent contractors by working on platforms like Uber, Fiverr, Freelancer and so on.

Through this video, you'll end up properly understanding the definition of the gig economy and, among other things, it will be explained to you through real-life job examples.

You'll quickly understand that the gig economy is more than just a flavor of the month buzzword: on the contrary, the gig economy is here to alter the status quo when it comes to employment.

Does all of this mean that "gig economy" and "prosperity" are synonymous?

Unfortunately, no, not really. Like with all things in life, there are pros as well as cons associated with gigs. While working via Uber or Fiverr might be very convenient, there are also risks involved and depending on where you live, gig economy jobs may or may not be able to put more revenue in your pockets than traditional jobs.
