The best thing you can do is get a normal job and work on your podcast on the side.

Being a podcaster, steamer, musician etc are jobs that cannot give you a steady income. Only very few people ever make a steady income from those, and the ones that do are financed by nefarious reasons to support a political agenda.

The best strategy is work and normal job, leave below your means and save as much as you can in Bitcoin so you can retire, while always doing your hobbies on the side.

We live in a fiat dominated system so making a steady income from podcaster type jobs is almost impossible due to YouTube being unfair, ad blocker and no easy way to support channels on YouTube.

When nostr takes over someday, it will be much easier to make money hut YouTube is still dominating.

Don't lose hope, we will win someday.

You can also start a wife and kid to help you with the emptiness.
