You're going to be killed by other criminals that are more established than you. So regarding to drugs, your best chance is growing weed and selling on some market in the dark web.
Or you can steal stuff and try to sell it on ebay.

They love people like you. They'll use you up while promising you advancement again and again, but it never comes and you're never anything more than a drug mule to them.
You get into it by being good, really good, not by being desperate.

You would have to get to know someone who's involved in organized crime to introduce you to their business. Even if you did get to know a criminal it's more than likely that they'd just use you and abandon you once you'd served some purpose.

The impression I've got is that unless you started criminal activity at an early age you don't really have a prayer of getting involved in organized crime. They'll know you aren't one of them.

Apparently if you hang out in Red Light districts in Japan yakuza guys posted on street corners will try to talk to you since the locals are too scared of them and they are lonely. Good way to make a friend and if you are a criminal yourself/can fabricate a decent cover story you should be able to maybe talk about being an outside contractor for stuff.
