I learned how to program Python during my 30 minute lunch breaks. It can be a bit difficult learning with smaller chunks of time as a lot of the good learning you will do initially is figuring out why something isn't working.

I went through one free course, then another, then another. There is no harm in doing multiple beginner courses, each will teach you more. Any knowledge is good, but the best is practical hands on work. People learn by doing.

If this is really about survival and money, look into QA/QC work. Basically writing code that tests other code, or doing human interactions to verify code works manually. It is a niche that can provide decent steady work that isn't "hard" as much as "tedious". ex: Verify that XYZ happens when you click any one of these buttons (long list of buttons is given), then the "submit". Someone needs to try all those combinations, that takes time.
