I could be wrong, but I see the gig economy as a second job sort of thing. Driving for Uber, part time, can’t really sustain a lower middle class lifestyle, and I’m not sure it could sustain one full time either. So you work your regular job, and then you do some gig economy work too. It’s a bit different for artists and people who work on commission, but that’s a much older business model than what I think of when I think of the gig economy, but like I said, I could be wrong.
