Hello everyone on BHW, Greetings to you all, I appreciate everyone trying to help and support the community.. please I’ve been on BHW for a while now and have witnessed BHW changed some peoples life for good, I hope my story would be same, I’m writing this with big pains in my heart, I’m 30 at the moment and my life feels like a mess as I’ve tried a lot of things online.. YouTube, freelance graphic design, and a whole other Skill which I didn’t get to perfect and right now almost everyone is searching for less designer cause of the rise of AI, right now there a lot of pressure ongoing that the only thing right now to get me going is if I get something that would be able to cater for some daily need, be it an online job or task to complete, as long as it’s online and can give me like daily funds, then I can focus to building other area over time..

I’m open to anything

thanks in advance..
 
You're trying to escape from working a job in the real world to burying your head in the digital sand pit? If you need money, cleaners servers, and many other industry's that have a high turn over pay well for dedicated disclipline. You can suppliment your digital life, knowing you got the best of both worlds.

Most of my life, i held a job while i was doing stuff online, so i could fund ventures, and of course failures. Now i'm in a good position, and I can recommend that a simple easy paying gateway for stuff that isn't demanding you to be an expert doesn't really exist.

How many wannabies (not including the spice girls) you think there are online today? lol if there are billions of people in the world. There are at least 5 million that have the same questions as you and have it everyday, without doing anything productive in the world of work, and epxecting magic money trees to grow in their lap! lol

You been a member for a while ok? so

What digital assets do you have?
What portfolio sites do you show things on?
What are how many social media platforms do you promote your work on?
Do you have hours of easy uninterrupted dedicated time to spend planning and working digitally?
What payment gateways do you have set up, that you can take payments for work on?

Answer these questions yourself. It will tell you if you have really been prioritizing, and learning.

Even if I get something solid online that would work, I can go offline for a while to get funding, just tired of the real world as I’ve only worked as a graphic artist before in a print firm and got some client based, but after a while I lost all my client cause I relocated to another country, not in stucked.. thanks for saying the truth regardless, and thanks for taking your time to respond.. appreciate

i can understand bro, sometimes the hardest part is finding something that gives you a little stability first.

my advice: don’t try to learn 10 things at once. pick one skill or service that has real demand, start small, and improve while earning. I hope you find something solid soon. Good luck:)

I'd actually start with what you already know. Graphic design isn't dead, the market just changed. Try offering quick jobs that AI can't completely replace, like editing AI-generated designs, thumbnails, social posts, or simple branding. small jobs can keep money coming in while you build something bigger.

Please did you meant cleaning service.? Sounds cool to me, how can I quickly build and scale up a business model on that, cause I’m a real estate agent, can decide to still offer cleaning service after getting rentals for clients

Any skill you know currently? Initially was learning how to create engaging videos for social as I’d like to be in the content space myself..

Please where can I get the gigs.. fiver, upwork and a whole other platforms re dead for freelancing..
 
Keep going and focus on building one skill at a time. Trying too many things at once can make progress harder. Pick one area, learn it well, and stay consistent. Good luck!
 
I’ll be waiting for your reply myself
Hi. Since you quoted me on the other thread I'll reply here.

I saw Panther said you're cooked and I can understand it's harder for designers/frontend devs nowadays. But one thing that works for sure is cold calling, look up "bridge closer" in the journey section, maybe you get some inspiration.

Another way to find opportunities is checking the JV/HAF sections. You can see what ppl need or what they're working on, so help them and you'll get some income.
 
You're just lacking the motivation to earn more or regain confidence, so start with small jobs before you can take on bigger ones. Building a customer base gradually in a new country isn't easy, but everything has a starting point, so just keep going without worrying about whether you'll succeed or not.
 
if you really need daily cash online look into basic lead scraping or virtual assistant work bro. businesses always need boring manual tasks done. it will not make you rich but it pays way faster than trying to master new skills...
 
I’ve tried a lot of things online

Good that you've tried a lot of things, but don't try a lot of things again. It's time to choose ONE THING and stick to it with tears, till you make money from it. Whether design (POD for example) or YouTube (Faceless channels) or whatever. Stick to one thing, brick by brick by brick, and one day, you'll see some results. and you have to keep going. develop your skills, always learn new things and keep moving.

If you need money NOW, then - as many already said - go do some work for other people (freelance, VA, or even work offline), then do the online thing as side husle.

Would like the VA part, how do I get on that.?

Please can you recommend anywhere I can get these jobs u talking abt
 
’m 30 at the moment and my life feels like a mess as I’ve tried a lot of things online.. YouTube, freelance graphic design, and a whole other Skill which I didn’t get to perfect and right now almost everyone is searching for less designer cause of the rise of AI,
What are the niches that you tried on YouTube? You can try more.
 
This is actually a very interesting topic, and I think a lot of people are facing the same situation right now

First of all, I completely understand where you’re coming from. When you’ve tried YouTube, freelancing, graphic design, and several other skills without getting the results you hoped for, it’s easy to feel like you’re constantly starting over and with AI changing the freelance and design market so quickly, that pressure is understandable.

But I’ll be completely honest with you don’t think you should keep jumping from one online opportunity to another looking for something that can make you money every single day, alot of people on BHW who will tell you about methods that supposedly generate easy daily income, but in reality, most of them require time, skills, consistency, or an audience before they become reliable

If your immediate priority is simply to cover your daily expenses, I’d focus on finding the most straightforward online work you can realistically get paid for even if it isn’t your dream job. Use that as a short-term income source while you build something more sustainable on the side.

At the same time, I’d strongly recommend picking 1 skill or business model and sticking with it for at least a few months instead of constantly switching whenever something doesn’t work. You don’t need to become an expert overnight. You need to become good enough at something that people are willing to pay you for it.

And honestly, being 30 is not too late at all. You haven’t failed, just haven’t found what works for you yet. The important thing now is to stop looking for the next “easy opportunity” and start building something you can actually compound over time

Please do you know any source I can get a job or something to do..
 
You can start with simple online services like virtual assistants, content writing, data entry, or customer support. Develop a skill set and apply consistently to reputable freelance platforms. Avoid anything that promises quick money.
