$100 / mo is even easy to do with an Adsense site ($3-4/day is definitely not hard), but that might not be your interest.

I would check your skills and interests; what can you do? Can you write? Design? Have at least a feel for design? There are tons of opportunities if your goal is 'only' $100/month.

So if I were you I would sum up my hobbies and skills you do have; think broad here, there is money in everything, especially if you are not looking to make millions of $.

I've been learning how to create web designs from scratch lately, here's one I made from a tutorial: http://imgur.com/19Mhc honestly $5 a day would be plenty...or even $5 a week, I guess I'm just looking for a confirmation that I can find a way to make money..or that I have what it takes and from there I can figure out a way to grow it.

This is good enough :) Now learn to get them working on Wordpress and you will be making more than $5 / day for sure. You can sell links in the footer or you can sell the entire theme as unique theme or limited theme. Depending on the time you spend to build themes, you'll make nice money, even while undercuttng the competition.
