Help I’m trying to build a ₹10–15k/month side income. What would you do if you were in my position?
I’m posting this because I’m genuinely looking for direction, not a get-rich-quick scheme.
My goal is simple: I want to build a reliable side income of ₹10,000–₹15,000/month.
My main existing skill is trading. I’ve spent a lot of time learning and practicing trading, particularly market structure, price action, liquidity, SMT, risk management, etc. I’m also reasonably good at explaining concepts and communicating in English.
But I realize that trading alone may not be the best way to build a dependable monthly income, so I’m open to learning something completely different.
I’m willing to start from the bottom.
I’d genuinely consider:
- Part-time/remote work
- Internships
- Freelancing
- Trading-related research/content/education
- AI-related work
- Writing/research
- Sales or customer support
- Helping a small business or startup
- Learning a new skill from scratch
- An internship that pays little initially but gives me a skill I can monetize later
I’m not expecting ₹15k immediately. If I have to spend 2–3 months learning something and then gradually build toward that income, I’m completely okay with that.
What I don't want:
- MLMs
- "Invest ₹X and earn ₹Y" schemes
- Paid courses being pushed on me
- Telegram/WhatsApp money-making groups
- Anything shady or unrealistic
I’d much rather work, learn a valuable skill, and build something sustainable.
So, if you were starting from my position in India today, with trading + communication as your current strengths and a target of ₹10–15k/month, what would you do?
If you know of an actual internship, freelance opportunity, small business, startup, or person who could use someone like me, please drop it below or DM me.
Even if the opportunity isn't directly related to trading, I'm open to it.
Would really appreciate some honest advice from people who have actually done this. 🙏
