I would try something where you don't risk money. The chances are very high that you end up losing instead of making money.

How much money do you need to make, and what is the timeframe?

Try to analyze your spending. There can be a lot of money "made" by spending less.

Thank for your reply, I need 30000$ timeframe is 6 months.
my honest opinion here. extend your timeline. take a loan with good terms and also look for a better paying job. this will allow you to focus on your family member.

Good luck!

This is probably the best option. Try to get a loan without any interests from friends/relatives
If I needed $30K in 6 months, I would spend 2-3 months marketing myself with the goal of 1-2 consulting projects delivered.
Hi OP, considering your constraints I recommend NOT engaging in any of the high variance activities like poker or crypto trading because it may well take you in the opposite direction.

Can you share a little about where you’re from so you can benefit from some country specific advice?

How much do you really need to live on?

Can you reduce costs and do this with your day job?

If you were to deliver pizza at night could that plus your day job do it?

Or find a freelance contract?

Lots of medical places are willing to do payment plans, is that an option here?
