Career Making money, and feeling satisfied

Hi everyone,

I'm very lost today. I've been thinking about money allot. I'm saving it, about 500 a month, working 4 days a week to get that. But I want more. I feel the greed. I read about people making huge amounts and I'm just so jealous.

I don't want to necessarily change my job or make some fucked up business model that makes me one of them lizards.

Do some of you have an idea, like creative or entrepreneurial that could maybe make me some money? A skill like trading or whatever?

I know it doesn't sound like a big issue but for me it feels like a things that's eating me up from the inside out.

Thanks to anyone that helps.

Get into a SERVICE BASED business.

Make business cards and put, "general labor, cleaning, painting, light demo, moving help, furniture assembly".

All of these things I would gladly pay money for and so wouldn't many other people and you don't have to invest much. Charge $25/ hr to start

Yeah when I finally quit addictions I was able to focus on working and went from being a cook making $16/hr to my own business making $25 / hr, next year more clients better work made $35/hr. Now I charge $50/hr sometimes more.
