My friend, I'm very sorry to hear this. It seems like you are under a lot of pressure to be the financial backbone of your family. Without any knowledge of your circumstances, is there a way to have a frank discussion with some members to ask for their support? We tend to focus on thinking the soltuion to our money problems is getting more money/wealth. That is objectively true, but it might be at the risk of your mental and physical health. If you can get additional support from your family to contribute financially, please have that honest conversation and tell them how you are feeling.

Creating a winning startup is like the lottery. Lots of things have to go in your favor. It might be best, given the pressure you are feeling, to stay with the slow and steady market gains you are experiencing, as when we are under pressure we make bad stock market gambles.

I would also take a solid look at your budget/spending and see if you can cut anything at all. You'd be surprised with what you can cut out of your life.

Again, I am sympathetic to your pain and feel it myself.
