I am literally dead and have gainful employment. If my decaying remains can find a job, you can too. Serious talk, though: Write down a list of your skills. I don't even mean "things you think are employable" skills, but all skills that make you unique as an individual. You mention German and English language. Do you speak any others? Just to throw an option out there: My wife takes hindi lessons from a teacher on italki.com. You could set up a curriculum and start teaching German to overseas students, as an example. I don't know how good the market is for German language teaching on it, but I know it's good enough for people wanting to learn Hindi that my wife's teachers are raking in (USD) low six figures while living in India. Think about other weird things you could do. You mentioned sketches and artwork. Are you a good artist? Are you good with kids? Does your country/state allow you to teach art lessons after school to children without a billion art and childcare certs? Give things like that some thought. Maybe you have some neat combo that you can use to work around not having certs. I honestly don't know much of anything about German employment law so there isn't too much else I can really suggest. Edit: Another example of what I mean re: neat skill combos -- I have a friend who brings in (brought in?) about $15K-20K a year doing custom repainting of faces/features on high-end dolls. She was big into doll collecting for a while, and once she realized that people would pay her to have fun with her own hobby, she supplemented her day job with it.

quote:- I'm also good at acting and voice stuff and would love to actually pursue voice acting but again, need some actual money for actual adult poo poo first https://www.acx.com/help/narrators/200484550 There are a bunch of sites like these where you can take on narration jobs or you can post your samples + what you're willing to narrate. In the USA, there are some issues re: voice-acting unions understandably hating these sites (they undermine the guild and typically refuse to work with them), but you're in Germany anyway so not sure if/how that'd matter to you. Not a real "job" or anything until you get popular/lucky, but I just wanted to let you know things like that exist.
