How Regular People (Yes, You!) Can Profit Off the Government

In partnership with

Hey Simplifiers,

When you hear about billionaires like Elon Musk cashing in on government programs, it’s easy to think: "That’s not for people like me." But here’s the truth → You don’t have to be a tech mogul to benefit from government opportunities. You just have to know where to look.

Today, we're exploring simple, legitimate ways to profit from the government—no billionaire status required.

1️⃣ Grants and Scholarships
There’s free money out there, not just for students.

• Business grants, educational scholarships, research funding, and even creative arts support exist for everyday people.

• Pro Tip: Websites like grants.gov and your local state portals are goldmines.

2️⃣ Tax Credits and Deductions
Elon Musk isn't the only one who benefits from tax breaks.

• You could cash in through credits like the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC), education credits, energy-efficient home upgrades, or even business deductions if you freelance or own a side hustle.

• Pro Tip: A solid tax planner (or smart software) pays for itself by uncovering hidden savings.

3️⃣ Small Business Assistance Programs
Thinking of starting a business?

• Many cities and states offer startup loans, mentorship programs, office space discounts, and sometimes even funding to help small businesses thrive.

• Pro Tip: Your local Small Business Development Center (SBDC) is a great first stop.

4️⃣ Government Contracts and Freelance Opportunities
Yep—regular folks like you can snag contracts to provide services like marketing, consulting, IT, catering, and more.

• Pro Tip: Explore sam.gov for federal gigs or your local city website for opportunities.

Remember:

You’re already paying into the system through taxes. It’s not about taking advantage, but taking back what’s meant to support you.

Opportunities exist—you just have to reach out and grab them.

If nobody told you today, you deserve abundance, too.

Until next time,
