1. Freelancing
I'm not talking about Fiverr or Upwork here (although for some these can work)
I'm talking about getting businesses to pay you what you are worth
In order to start freelancing, you need a skillset that people will pay for

Once you understand the skill, don't hesitate in trying to find clients
Your first few clients won't pay as much as later clients
You will learn the most about your skill with real world application

2. Info products
Info products seem to be all the rage on Twitter and for good reason
You create them once and you can sell them forever
You can probably create one based on your current knowledge

If you are a proponent of mindfulness, you could create a meditation guide
If you are a wiz with Photoshop, create tutorials on a specific topic
If you enjoy hiking in Arizona, create a travel guide

In order to sell info products successfully, you have to have a decent understanding of marketing and be able to drive traffic to your offer
If you just throw up a gumroad link without having an audience or traffic source... nobody is going to buy it, clearly.

3. Affiliate marketing
Similar to info products, but you don't have to create the info product
You can become an affiliate for nearly any product imaginable
As an example, this thread was scheduled with @hypefury
I'm an affiliate for them because I love them

As we discussed earlier, you cannot just get an affiliate link and expect people to buy
You need to either have an audience or other form of traffic like a blog
Some people sell like crazy in the DMs alone, no traffic.
Endless opportunities
