Search around on the sub, but the short answer is no. Editing makes a terrible side hustle. It can make a great career if you are willing to put in the time and effort to not only learn the skills and build up your portfolio, but also network and get out there and promote yourself. 

But breaking in is long, hard and takes a lot of work. It might take you 2 years of really hitting the pavement before you land your first decent gig, and 5 years to be landing them consistently. And even then there are no guarantees.
