Money help: Been collecting unemployment since Feb but am now desperate for extra income. - Help.com



This post left anonymously

Been collecting unemployment since Feb but am now desperate for extra income.

I get enough to pay the bills and that’s it. That was fine with me but unfortunately through a series of unfortunate events I’ve needed an extra 400-500 a month for the past 2 months. I’ve been actively looking for a job but have had no luck, hell I can’t even get a cashier job interview. Now my cell phone service has been cut off and can’t pay so I have no way of being able to be contacted by the 80+ applications I’ve put in.

I’m not asking for money but I would like suggestions on how to get quick legal money. My credit is shot to hell by now so I can’t get a bank loan. I’ve been leaning toward doing one of those payday loans but am a little weary about the process. Suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

My parents both work two jobs to take care of the bills they have so I wouldn’t feel right asking for money plus I doubt they would have enough or any to spare. I don’t think babysitting is a viable option for me.
