How about being a security guard? There are some cozy, chill, nothing-ever-happens places where you can just sit there at night, maybe do a couple of walks but other than that you could work on your projects! This way you have a steady job that will also be beneficial for pension (adds to work years), and you can work on projects that will pay off later. Do not forget to bring your laptop!

Working night shift sucks and is bad for your mental and physical health and reduces life expectancy.
Sounds amazing but it might be hard to focus. In my country, there is no pension. Healthcare is an issue, my wife works for hospital but my health insurance is so much better than hers. We will switch to hers but this pandemic make us a little nervous.
We get healthcare paid by the employer here, so that is not an issue. Focusing could definitely be an issue, especially in the beginning, but I think you could switch to it eventually. I cannot code myself anywhere but my house, not even at my friend's house (when I am alone), but I did get used to it after some days. Probably would have gotten easier over time if I had to stay there.
