Back up a second. You've missed an important question. What do you WANT out of your time in this life? Where do you actually want to be in ten years, or twenty? $150k p/a is not an answer, or at least not a very good one. You clearly have means enough to start businesses, so a lot of non-conventional doors are open to you. Why do any of it?

I've had plenty of time to relax. Going forward I want options, and the best path to that is to pay off the small amount of debt I currently have and start making forward financial progress.
I need a way to begin making income in the next few months, I can't afford to roll my own business and wait years to break even. I don't want anything non-conventional - I want a normal job, heck even if it's $90k per year.
