I need to raise $200 in five days or I lose my place to stay. Will somebody help me? I woke up crying & I don't know what to do. I really don't. I feel like a moron. I can't turn to anybody but the computer right now. I feel so sad. So stupid to be in this situation. I can't stop crying. Damnit... Help.

    Have you tried something like prosper.com or doing gigs at fiverr?

    Break it down.. 20 things you can do for $10 is easier than getting $200 all at once..

    I've checked prosper.com & fiverr. I can't use Prosper as I'm not entitled & I put up a writing gig on Fiverr. But I will not get the money on time. The only skill I can offer is writing. I've been writing Ezine articles & BMR posts for others. But the pay had been very small as I'm quite new & don't have enough portfolio to get bigger assignments. Most of them I think outsource their writing assignments to me. Five days, man. The only thing I can think of right now are illegal stuffs or my balcony. I'm pretty depressed right now. I'm the one who brought this problem on myself.

    I'm sorry I'm bringing it here. But I just can't think of anything else right now.

      No, not really. $10 is around RM30 in my country. There are other reasons too but too much negativity right now won't help my head right now. Each time I reply, I started to cry again. But you know, really appreciate your concern & advice. I'm just working out on my head space right now.

    Sorry to hear this. I'm in the same spot myself - trouble is that I PAID my rent. I just have to be able to get it back to get something else and my landlord is on some sort of psychotic meltdown, so if I call the police, I get to live on my car because the guy doesn't have a cent of it to give back to me. Fun crap isn't it?

    Just sucks that it's the end of february instead of the end of March. I have an appointment tomorrow to sit and talk with a lawyer about it. Already have the paperwork filled out - but they can't get blood out of a turnip. A lien might be possible.

    All I can say right now is being able to build a killer campfire is a hell of a skill to have in these times.

    All you 5er addicts -- I'm thinking I heard that 5er doesn't pay out right away? Don't they hold the money for 30 days? It doesn't help her to suggest programs that won't give the cash right now if all she has is 5 days.

    Ah - don't pray for me, girl. You save your own butt. Is it cold where you are? 5 days isn't much time to make money online from scratch. If you can, find a friend to take you in temporarily. If it's cold, learn to build a campfire and where there will be wood for you to build one - find where good water is or water that only needs to be boiled to be good. Find out what your community help resources are, and what you can count on and what you can't. Gather anything to keep you warm - clothes, blankets, etc. - Find people who might need help in exchange for rent and put an advertisement up that you need a place that will allow you to work for rent. Then hold your breath and trust the universe to take care of you.

      I hope that doesn't happen to you. Its actually quite warm in my country.
      If we both comes out of this, maybe, one day who knows we could meet and have actual camping. Right now, I'm trying to center my emotions & not do crazy stuffs. I hope you'll be ok.

        Thanks. I appreciate that.
        Sure, I will. I've already got the situation under a little bit of control. Just really ticked off I got conned like this. Ah well - stuff happens.

        And if you ever come to the US, sure we can go camping - I do that regularly just because I love it. Just don't want to do it for a living.

    Actually, I wouldn't need to leave the place but if I couldn't came up with the money to settle certain expenses related to the house, my landlady will lose the strata title of the apartment. It means she will lose the ownership of the apartment. That what sadden me. During my bad times, her husband had even tell her to tell me to move out. But she didn't & she never raised the rents. I've been with her for years & its because of my fault she's in this mess. If this is just about me, I think I can just handle it.

    But this affect somebody I cared about. She's been giving me many chances already and this might be the last straw for her husband. I might finally lose this place. I just thought I have more time to settle everything as I build my online business. But most of all I'm worried that she will lose the apartment ownership.

    The expenses is actually bills that is related to the house that I've didn't pay in full. I paid in portions. But for her to get the strata title, the bills must be all paid. Pending balance now is actually around $250 which is around RM700. I've never told her that the bills are pending so much. I just thought I could save her the worries by paying the bills in portion & when I get more money I'll settle it. Now, I don't have enough time.

    I have two other housemates & I'm the main tenant. I'm responsible for them too. If I lose the place, where are they going to go? One have a baby back home. Another a transgender who couldn't get other places to stay bcos people are biased towards her.

    My head in a mess right now. I keep on crying. I'm so stupid.

    Do you have anything you could sell like on craigslist? List a bunch of stuff and set up appointments to deliver in a public place. If possible bring a friend with you.

    Yeah I suggest selling some of your stuff on craigslist. This has helped me out of many jams. Also if you can write write an ebook report about 15 to 25 pages. Sell it on clickbank. This could work fairly quickly. Or contact a warrior about selling the ebook through their email lists. They have the list you have a quality book. Its worth the try. It could get you some money as soon as a few days.

    You know how to research and get a ebook together right? Then ask some of the gurus found here.
