My dad sent me a video of the piper at Glencoe this summer. I reckon you could save a bit and skip the lessons. No one would know.
OTOH, a friends teenage son earns upto £300 a gig either piping for tourists pretty much anywhere popular for a couple of hours, or for weddings makes £120 for piping into reception. Not bad for a 13year old….
One big £££££ earner I knew of was a guy who had spoof teeshirts printed up ie; a tee that looks like the Nike Swoosh + ‘Just Do It’ but instead it was a sperm in place of the swoosh and ‘Just Did It’. He sold them at music festivals and basically made enough over the festival season to mean he didn’t have to do anything else for the remainder of the year.

every business starts somewhere and with something.
Do you know any Poles you could buy a taser from? Set yourself up as a sort of hitman lite. Stick an add in the classifieds an offer to go round and taser forum members who have pissed off other forum members for a fee.
Actually buy two tasers and forum members who have fallen out with each other could fight a taser duel. Invest a bit more in top hats and frock coats which they can also rent from you.
Get £500 worth of the letter i in various sizes from a sign supplier, then go about correcting all the “To let” signs you can find. Some things are worth more than money!
