Here is what I think you should do: 1) Do some research online about legitimate ways to make money. Make a very long list with no fewer than 100 entries. These don't need to be things that you're interested in, but each one needs to result in some form of income. None of these things should cost any money to make money or require you to pimp out your friends and family for referrals. Don't limit yourself online either, remember that people earn money in easy ways offline as well and that something as easy as personal shopping for an elderly person in your neighborhood can bring in $50 a week for something you're doing anyway. Be creative and constantly add to this list. 2) Create profiles, sign up or apply to each one of these money making methods. In some cases, you'll need to create basic websites (storefronts), etc to facilitate income. Do not spend any more than 4 hours of a single day stetting up any single method. 3) Start thinking about a portfolio. It doesn't matter what life goals you have, you need a portfolio - especially if you're going to be earning money this way. Think about what your "perfect" job / gig / startup looks like and carefully collect items for your portfolio that support your expertise in your target area. Opportunistic portfolio work is the only type of work you should ever do cheap or free. 4) I bet you have already started to do these things. You've identified 4 very general things on your website that you can do. However, you've put out a general call for work in common areas. Think about your skills (starting with the 4 you've listed) and look at the looong list of money making opportunities. 5) Once you get a couple of bucks in your pocket and you get the bill collectors (if any) off of your back, a really fun experiment is to have your bills paid by passive income. One-by-one, if you can slowly discard one bill at a time using things like affiliate programs, ad income from your blog, whatever... you'll really start to have fun. The only rule in this "game" is to define a small number of maintenance hours per week to maintain your passive income. The natural progression of passive income using this strategy is to take an item from your looong list of income sources and modularize / mechanize it to reduce the amount of labor it takes to complete the task to the absolute minimum. Sometimes, leveraging the low cost labor of others to preform tasks that are easy to repeat is a great way to move a task completely passive. 6) Above all else, keep your chin up. Remember the setbacks and failures but don't let them put you in a bad mood. Staying upbeat and creative is the key.
