Well, I can't claim to be making a _good_ living, but if you look online at sites like Upwork or even reddit or various Discord channels, there is a lot of demand for programmers who are willing to work for cheap. And that may not be an option for someone with a family, but there are also a few clients here and there with real budgets. One of the nice things about freelancing is that if I don't want to use React or Svelte or whatever the latest CSS framework is, there are projects who don't really care and let me do things how I want. The other idea related to that is whatever business niche it is you have experience or interest in try to follow that community and see if there is any tool you can build.
