I might be in a bit of a financial pickle in the next month or so. Nothing that can't be solved with a lot of hustle and work, however I'm having trouble on where to get started. I have so many skills in a few different areas that it's hard to make a decision on where to put the majority of my focus.A little rundown about me and my skillset:Bachelor's degree in Software Engineering with a minor in Math. I know how to program in C, C++, and Python. Played around a bit with JavaScript, but nothing serious.Former Algorithmic Trader/Quantitative Developer at a small trading firm. Left the business due to burnout. Did some traveling, wound up in Thailand, fell in love and decided to do something different for a bit. I wouldn't mind working with a solo trader to automate their system in exchange for some quick cash.Been working as an English Teacher for the past two years. I love it, but it's not something I'm interested in doing forever.I've been drawing and making music my entire life. My drawing skills came in handy during my DnD sessions, where I would draw the characters my friends made up.Extremely interested in cryptocurrencies, blockchain tech, and NFTs.I have some light experience in Shopify, eCommerce, Canva, Social Media, and Marketing for a small, one woman business that sells vegan ready-to-go meals to local restaurants around Bangkok, but it's all in Thai :(A couple of things I should probably mention up front:I have no portfolio, aside from a few small scripts I've used to automate tedious music production tasks. Most of these skills I've acquired are for fun and I never thought about keeping/taking pics/saving the projects.My current position at an International School maybe finished tomorrow due to budget cuts. If this happens, I'll be needing to make around $1100/month to cover all of my expenses. I might be able to get it down to $900/month, but nothing lower. Doable, I know but I'm still anxious and very worried.I've thought about reaching out to the entrepreneurs here in Bangkok, but my Thai isn't fluent and most of the expats either do everything themselves or they already have dedicated people they look to when they need work done.I've got no problem starting off with one thing and building a portfolio to transition to another.Any advice or words of encouragement is greatly appreciated right now. see hubwealthy.com/wealthy
