Busking on the street can be a great way to make a living. As long as you know what you’re doing. If you’re going to busk and want to earn money at it, there are three questions you need to ask yourself.
First, why do you want to become a busker? Most street performers do it because they enjoy performing and want an audience. However, this is not the right reason if your goal is to make money.
Second, where are you going to busk? Many cities have areas where buskers set up regularly. These are generally good places for street performers who already know what they’re doing. Beginners would be better off in a less competitive area where they can get some experience and build their audience before moving downtown.
Third, how important is it that you make money from busking? If the answer is “very important,” then you should expect it to take a while before you start earning enough from your performances to quit your day job (if that’s what you’re aiming for).
Busking has become an incredibly popular way to make cash out of thin air. But the skill and talent required for busking on the street is considerable, and in order to really be successful at busking, you’re going to have to know how to put on a show that catches people’s attention.

– Are you ready to take the leap?
– Do you have the time and energy?
– Do you have a good idea of what it will cost?
Some people work full-time jobs while they busk and others do it part time. If you’re going to be busking as your full-time job, then it’s important that you have enough money saved up to cover your expenses for at least six months.
If you’re doing it part time, then there’s no need to save up extra cash. Just be sure that you can make enough money from busking in order to cover any expenses that might come up unexpectedly (like car repairs or medical bills).

There are quite a few things to think about before you become a busker. Of course, you first want to make sure that you’re actually ready and that you really want to do it.

Sometimes, nobody even looks your way; not because they don’t like the music but simply because they’re too busy with their own lives and private thoughts. So what will you do if no one pays attention? Will you pack up and leave or will you keep playing for a while longer? What if only two people paid attention and gave some money? Is it enough? How long will you keep playing until you decide to pack up and go home?
