I think a lot of people new to "making money online" tend to lock themselves into a box in terms of what they do ie I see Youtubers dropshipping so I'll try dropshipping.
IMHO if you want to get creative there's all types of ways to make money. Years ago a guy named Steve went on Sharktank with his I want to draw a cat for you business. Really pretty dumb but made a ton of money.
I recently ordered an Exploding Dick Bomb again incredibly stupid, I paid almost $30 for a cardboard tube that when opened shoots dicks everywhere lol. That thing clost like 0.50 cents to assemble , no finding suppliers no dropshipping literally buy tubes and some dick confetti but I found the thing to be funny and wanted to send it to my gf's brother because I thought he would appreciate the humor so I bought it.
I guess my point is if you think outside the box and get creative you can make some great money.
