What skills can I learn that will help me land a better paying job?

I've been working in a call center for about 3 years now and I just can't do this anymore. Before working in the CC, I was a bartender for about 8 years. I don't want to do this customer service shit anymore, but at the same time, I can't go back to school, because I'm broke and I don't really know what I want to do in life. When was in school, I was just taking random classes. I didn't do too well in them so I ended up dropping out. Its been many years since I dropped out and I still have no idea on what I want to do in life. Nothing in life really bring me joy. I've looked into a lot of different career paths: accounting, marketing, IT/web Dev, and medical, and they were all just too overwhelming for me to handle. I'm almost 30 and…

I'm almost 30 and I know I have like 35 more years left to work, hopefully. Since I still live with my parents, I'm not struggling too hard, but I know this shit isn't gonna last. My family is getting old and I know they won't be here forever. I don't have many friends, so I can't stay with them if shit hits the fan. And No I don't have a gf lol…..I mean what woman would want to be with a man that make less than 35k and still lives at home with his parents?

I just want to find a job that pays well enough for me to live an alright life. I don't care about that high lavish life tbh. I know this shit isn't gonna just fall in my lap, so I just need to know what are some useful skills I can learn on my own that will help me land a better paying job? I've been learning Excel and looking into Power BI, but I feel like I won't be able to land a good job just with those skills and no exp/degree. Tbh I'm also not even that good, but I'm still trying to get better at them.
