You just graduated and accepted your first job (congrats!). That probably means you'll be moving into a real, adult apartment. You'll have rent to cover, bills to pay, and furniture to buy. Oh, you'll also need a new work wardrobe - and you'll probably want to grab the occasional drink or meal at your new neighborhood hot spots.

All of those things cost money - a lot of it. And chances are, that job you just accepted doesn't pay as much as you'd like.

Luckily, there are some easy ways to make extra cash when you're in your 20s and trying to make ends meet.

FlexJobs, an online service specializing in telecommuting and remote work, recently put together a list of high-paying jobs you can do on the side.

To qualify for the list, each job had to be considered "flexible" (and not full time), and had to pay at least double the federal minimum wage of $7.25 an hour, according to the job posting on FlexJobs.

Brie Reynolds, the director of online content for FlexJobs, says "side jobs" are defined as anything part time, including freelance, temporary, short- or long-term, work-from-home, or in-person flexible gigs.

We selected the 13 jobs a twenty-something could do on the side, in their spare time.
