Achieving monetization on any social media platform is usually a hard task, not to talk of Twitter and doing so in just 4 weeks. It's just a matter of knowing the right buttons to press, like, for example, the knowledge you had that politics and football are lucrative niches. And most times you can't detect the right buttons by just watching videos or reading posts about how to achieve monetization.

If you can do same to your YouTube account, I'm thinking it might help you pay the bills better, nasty necessity that it is ( paying the bills, I mean). I've heard of creators making thousands of dollars from videos that grossed views under a million. I hope you find ways to stay afloat financially. One thing is certain: this difficult phase of your life will pass eventually.
