METHODOLOGY

HOW WE SCORE HUSTLES.

The quiz is a fit model, not a promise of income. HF Picks are recommendation slots, not paid rankings.

01

Quiz fit

The quiz builds a profile across ten traits: capital tolerance, speed preference, people contact, creation, systems, research, uncertainty, compounding, sales and hands-on work.

02

Weighted matching

Each hustle has an ideal trait profile and different trait weights. Your Top 3 are based on distance from those profiles — no single answer secretly equals one hustle.

03

No income promise

A high fit score means the operating style matches you better. It does not mean the hustle will make money, or that an 88 score produces an 88% chance of success.

HF PICKS

HOW A TOOL EARNS A PICK.

A commission can monetize a recommendation. It cannot create the recommendation.

Useful for the exact step

The tool has to solve something that appears in the action plan, not just have an affiliate program.

Free option gets a fair shot

If a free tool is good enough for a beginner, we say so instead of forcing a paid recommendation.

Downside is visible

Price, lock-in, complexity or weak fit should be stated alongside the upside.

No pay-to-rank

A sponsor or affiliate rate does not buy the #1 position or change a verdict.
