Nursing Hacks 29 shifts in a row

I have a job but I sometimes try to make extra money on the side,I saw a tiktok where a nurse was working 29 shifts in a row and at the end she had a extra $14,000, a friend just got a roommate, another friend picks up PRN shifts at another hospital instead of doing over time I'm wondering what are some cool ways you guys.

I picked nursing specifically because I didn't want to work more than I needed to to afford to live...

Yeah I make more than enough for our family to live very comfortably. Luckily we have 2 income but if something happened to one of them I still wouldn't need overtime.
