I’m a product manager for a software company, and have modest computer skills. I’m handy with HTML, CSS, wordpress, generative AI.

I’m 28k in debt. Over the holidays I have 10 days off and was wondering what business could I start during the break with little to no money.

I have watched hundreds of side hustle videos and I’m just overwhelmed. It’s leaving me feeling like dope because none of these hustles click with me, and even more stressed.

What’s a reasonable project to start, given time and money restrictions?

I’m wondering what sort of interesting ideas you may have. Let’s not get into how I got into debt or money management… I am interested in a creative solutions, and earnings.

Any positive feedback and suggestions would be appreciated!

    First think of something you like to do, what you are good at, that comes easy for you and difficult for others and what others are willing to pay for.
    It is a matter of thinking on command.

    You can take for example an Excel sheet and list in columns:

    • A: Things I like to do, write as many as possible
    • B: Am I good at it? Yes, can easily learn or not
    • C: Is there a need in the market and will someone pay me for it?

    Then you can start eliminating.

    However, I am sorry to put it to you like this but: You will not be able to “start a business” in 10 days.

    I don’t know of a business you could run for the holidays that would take a chunk out of your debt. Would you pick up projects?

    I just did a quick search for generative AI on Freelancer and quite a few results came up, including this one that pays $750-$1500 for AI experts.

    Maybe a few of those projects could bring in the cash you need to reduce your debt. If it works for you, you can sign up on similar sites to get more projects.
