Trade. Seriously. Get in a hobby or multiples and buy and sell things related to that hobby. Ideally manage to sell a wanted commodity at dirty price just because you manged to secure a deal with a 0-level fabricator. People spend most of their money on hobbies and it's a flowering market any way you take it.
You can do it on the side, but you'd need to allocate time to it,to understand the market properly.

He's right, I mean, a businessman I know who has well over 150 million pounds sold the copper from his workshop lessons for 50 quid a week. Seriously, that's a huge amount of money.
Start at your goal and work your way back.
