I suspect most have some sort of check coming in and supplement with underground gigs. On the urban street,back in the day, it used to be known as *having a hustle*. Not all hustles are illegal, although many are. Many simply skirt licensing laws and practice a trade without credentials.

Those no good capitalistic dogs!
How dare they not pay their fair share!

Yeah, well, we’re self-employed capitalists and we pay taxes, fees, licensing,permits, practice insurance, etc, etc. If I thought we could get away with it, I’d go underground, too.

But we are Caucasian Midwesterners, older, monogamous and so, we pay more than a fair share, IMO.
