Pakistanis earning online if you had to start from zero today, what would you do?
I’m a student from Islamabad trying to realistically make around 50k PKR/month online.
Not trying to become the next Andrew Tate crypto billionaire. Bas decent halal online income so I can stop financially stressing every 4 business days.
My background:
- Good English (IELTS 8 band)
- Can communicate well
- Interested in finance/business/marketing
- Know basic video editing
- Can research stuff properly
- Decent with tech and learn fast
- Have a MacBook + internet + too much anxiety about the future
- Can work consistently if there’s actual money at the end of the tunnel
I’ve looked into:
- Freelancing
- Copywriting
- Appointment setting
- Social media management
- Short-form content editing
- AI automation stuff
But honestly har field mein aisa lagta hai 500,000 Pakistanis already entered before me.
So I want real answers from people actually earning online in Pakistan:
If you had 3–6 months to learn ONE skill from scratch and make your first consistent 50k/month online, what would you pick and why?
Also:
- What skills are actually overrated?
- Which ones are saturated but still worth entering?
- Which fields look sexy on Twitter but are dead in reality?
Would appreciate brutally honest advice
