Mall Santas make a ho-ho-whole lot of money
Usually when a person thinks of a guy dressed up red robes acting as Santa for good little children, he or she regards him as a guy just trying to make a couple bucks on the side, but mall Santas make more than many people know.
According to Aol News, the average mall Santas makes from $100 to $175 an hour and can make up to $300 an hour for private parties. Mall Santas have to endure hard conditions, such as being in a stuffy suit for hours on end and dealing with upset or messy children and also have to invest a lot of money in the Santa suit itself, but it pays off when the average mall Santas rakes in up to $20,000 a season, according to Best Jobs Info Guide.
If you’re looking for a seasonal job this holiday season, you might want to consider being a mall Santa.
