Go and read this very short book
"What the Accountant Taught His Daughter: Or What School Didn't Teach You About Money"
It's free on Kindle Unlimited or you can borrow it from the Library.
Then, have a really good think about money & what it is that you really think would make you feel rich, rather than just a list of things you think would make other people think you are rich, or that you think they do because they are rich.
Then, have a look at things like Mr Money Moustaches website (might not be the route you want to go & you have to skip his occasional obsessive rants about cars).
He downsized his life & increased his income so he could retire before 40.
You might not be prepared to go as far as he does, but might pick up some tips on maximising what you have.
You need to learn about money, investments & all that 'boring' stuff like pensions.
You haven't got a chance though if you want it to be 'easy'.
The people who succeed often get called lucky, but usually they worked really really hard to be in a position to take advantage of the 'lucky' thing.
Nobody is going to knock on your door & give you the answers & there is no course you can buy or sign up for guaranteed to make you rich.
If you aren't born to money, you will have to work very hard & go without along the way to get a little bit then use it to build up into something better.
If it was easy, everyone would do it.
If you have a partner, you also have no chance unless he is on board.
Look at capitalising on what you have.
Do you have knowledge that you could sell?
e.g.
Could you build up e.g. a YouTube channel about becoming a Midwife in the UK, with study tips, stuff about how to manage your time while being student & doing placements etc..?
Could you do that well enough to then sell a guide people could buy, or set up a Patreon?
Those are things you could try to do around your studies when you are bang up to date with what's in the current curriculum, so it's knowledge not everyone has.
Things for those thinking of becoming a Midwife might want to know, that could be helpful etc...
You can get yourself a reputation as an 'expert' just by being known enough in your field.
Review stuff that Midwives might buy or recommend to clients if you have access to them.
Do videos on Christmas presents Midwives would like.
Or you could aim at the maternity population & do videos about "Things you wanted to ask your midwife but were too scared to ask", "What happens at a first appointment?" (I know they have a proper name but I can't remember what it is as it's a long time since I was pregnant!) or "Why does my Midwife ask me this?" etc..
You can even cover topics like disclosing to Midwives, explaining support available to women in violent situations etc.. who could be scared about what might happen if they asked a Midwife for help"
You do need to make absolutely sure that what you say follows the legal obligations for Midwives in that sort of area though & always include disclaimers.
Mum & baby channels do well, pregnant women might be interested in a Maternity channel.
There are always more of them.
All it would cost you is time, you don't need a fancy camera set up to put up a few videos, you could even do them on your phone, e.g. 'here's me in my car on the way to' (not showing clients of course)
Then, if you build yourself a bit of a reputation, you can look at selling a 'course' or pdf book.
Work at it well enough & you could also write a book related to what your channel is about, then you can advertise yourself as 'author of...'
All those things add up & have potential.
You need to think outside of the box of a regular job & see where you can use what you already know/have to generate extra income.
It might take a while to work, but the more you are out there, the more opportunities can come your way.
Just make sure if you put yourself on Social Media, you ALWAYS present a professional front & assume every potential client/employer will see every single thing you say.
NEVER use real life examples from clients because they could be identified.
Don't bitch about stuff because it might come back to bite you.
There an idea for 2 channels from a random person who doesn't really know much about you.
It doesn't matter if there are already Midwife/Pregnancy channels.
If you can do a good job, there is always room for one more.
Rack your brains, there must be more you could turn into potential income streams.
For YouTube, you need 1000 subscribers to get monetised, but you spend your life as a Midwife with potential subscribers who are most likely to be interested in what you say.
