There's a lot of opportunity here in bitcointalk.org, but you need to educate your self first. About hodl, trading, investing, mining and many more. Well, this is not a joke because the money is involve here. If you have a good capital, you need to learn some investing strategy and many more. Alternative option is to be a bounty hunter as well. Avoid gambling and have some time to be more flexible on different idea. There is no easy money here in crypto currency, all you need is hard work and be broad as well. If you know some IT works or software works like video editing and website development, that will be a good advantage to you.
Is that last part supposed to be sarcasm as I could not see how genuine such a post is ? 
Anyway, what is important for the OP is to try as much as possible to learn and know how he can be a part of anything. You cannot be a part of something if you do not know how to be a part of it and it is as simple as that.
Lots of people have rushed into investing, trading and all sorts with no knowledge and experience, and even at that, they just are too lazy to learn. There is no shortcut to success, and you just have to work for it, whichever way you want to start.
Hence in that vein, even though it is an old topic, the OP or anyone in his shoes can just start learning from the beginners thread.
