๐ก Pro tip: Position as a "Content Multiplication System" not "video editor" โ sells 3x better.

Top 5 to Avoid โ
AI Blog Farms
(AIๅๅฎขๅๅบ/ๅ ๅฎน็ซ)Google is actively hunting AI content farms. The HCU update wiped out thousands of sites. You could invest 6-12 months and lose everything overnight.
๐ธ Potential waste: $500-$5,000+
Prompt Engineering Consulting
(Promptๅทฅ็จๅธๅจ่ฏข)AI tools are getting smarter โ complex prompts are becoming unnecessary. This job title is dying in 2026. GPT-5 and Claude auto-optimize better than any human.
๐ธ Potential waste: $200+ in wasted learning
Generic AI Art on Etsy
(้็จAI็ปๅจEtsyๅ)Massively saturated. Tens of thousands of sellers already selling AI "inspirational quote posters" and "galaxy wallpapers". Race to the bottom.
๐ธ Potential waste: $100-$300
AI eBook Mass Publishing
(AI็ตๅญไนฆๆน้ๅบ็)Amazon KDP is cracking down on AI-generated low-quality books. Mandatory AI disclosure, increased takedowns. The gold rush is over.
๐ธ Potential waste: $200-$1,000
"Make $10K in 7 Days" Courses
("7ๅคฉๆๅ ฅ1ไธ"่ฏพ็จ)The only person making money is the one selling the course to YOU. If the method actually worked, they'd use it themselves instead of selling a $97 course about it.
๐ธ Potential waste: $97-$997
