I would recommend that you don't do actually anything with the money right now and save it until you manage to collect a bit more. With $30 you really can't do that much so it would be a shame to waste it in vain when you had challenging collecting it. The better idea would be to join some job-seeking platform and find some smaller jobs, one-time projects, or part-time tasks in which you feel suitable, and start working to get to the higher amount. As part of this, you can start working or preparing your own project, and think what it could be related, and then when you have at least $200, you can invest it in your project that would already be prepared and for which you would prepare a strategy in advance.
