    You could dig into the generative AI stuff. Custom chat bots and LORAs, prompt engineering. It’s still pretty early in the cycle, so you could position yourself nicely.

    You mentioned in another comment that you did sales. What sort? Could you not learn the business that was?

    In the UK, I would learn how to do Quickbooks bookkeeping, then start a book keeping business for accounting.

    Buy a MIG or TIG welder. Watch some YouTube videos. Hone your skill. Take a class at a community college if you need additional instruction. Weld art if you have that inclination or fences/structures if you want to go that route. Lots of ways to make money from home with this trade. Add in a cnc plasma cutter and fabricate parts, signs, or whatever. You’ll need a covered space and electricity.

      I’m curious what you could weld at home to make money. My dad was a welder and he mostly build farm equipment. He had a shop at our house but most of his work was done elsewhere. This was about 40 years ago so things have probably changed.

    I would take the time to learn coding and specifically, artificial intelligence. I would use the 10K to invest in making the site and training an AI. Since that’s where the world is heading right now, it makes most sense to me.

    I would learn Copywriting skills, marketing skills , then start e-commerce. Outsourcing any other aspect like coding and graphic design. Then hire someone to build content and backlinks. If it’s season for your products spend money on ads as well.

    I’d take a job and learn skills that way. I’d be getting paid to learn. In fact, that’s what I did.

        I learnt programming. Some friends from uni learnt accounting. Non-uni friends learnt trades like electrician, plumbing, etc. Most people I know learnt their skills at their jobs.

        Even people who started jibs at the bottom learnt skills at work and got sent on training courses to enhance their skills.

    I started an online bookkeeping business, pretty successful but I hate bookkeeping so it’s miserable 😅 I’m now getting some traction with programming/trading/dropshipping which I love. Maybe worth looking into? Good luck
