What have you done to make some quick cash?

I've applied for loans all over....can't get a loan because I lost a business last year and ...well I'm sure you can imagine how far in debt I am. I've been selling off items in our home...can offer babysitting services or laundry services. Any other ideas. I'm happy to work for my money. I already have a job that doesn't pay enough. Thanks!

    Hey there, suga! I know that financial problems can cause huge distress; I have been through it, and if you are like most of us, you will feel it again. The good thing is that you will get good at becoming creative to make ends meet. I took an interest of mine and turned it into a very nice second income. I am crafty, so I just put a little money toward a craft project and now I sell my wares on Ebay. I don't know if this will help you, but you may want to look into refinancing your home. Soemtimes that can help get you caught up on bills while consolidating your debt. The only caviat is that your mortgage payment goes up, so I am not sure you are in a position to do so. If you are in a job that doesn't pay enough, my best advice is to start looking for a job in a field you WANT to be in and make the money that you should be making, depending on qualification. Also, STOP applying for loans. When it comes to credit inquiries, unless you applied for them at around the same time within one month, it will lower your credit score, and by putting so many inquieries out there, you are telling these establishments more than you might think. What was the business you lost? Is it your dream? You may not be inn a position to try it again right now, but while you are working to get out of debt, create a game plan as to how you can get your buisness off the ground with success this time; trust me, the silver lining to your cloud is that you at least now know what NOT to do and you can actually build your mplans better than most with that knowledge. Most of all, don't despair; this is a common occurence and as long as you keep your head up and push through it, you will survive this. Blessings....

    I joined Passion parties. First let me explain what I do....

    I educate women in the privacy of their own home. I provide a fun filled informative night where ladies, much like yourself, can taste, touch and feel sensual items. You are surrounded by friends, only female friends, in the privacy of your home. You don't have to go to mail order catalogues, where you really don't know what you're getting or to those sex shops where someone is always looking over your shoulder. Everything is confidential. I believe that what a couple does behind their bedroom doors is nobody's business but their own. I try to provide a safe, fun environment to teach and educate you on those topics that Mama didn't want to cover.

    So that is a little bit of what I do. I have a great time and I get to spend it with friends mostly. I love my work and want you to love work too! If you would like to join please feel free to visit my website. Also since you are short on cash if you want some magazines to get orders on I would be happy to help you get your kit for A LOT less. The good kit is 250 dollars...but we can always work something out. Visit my website and go to become a passion consultant. By the way commission is 40% of your sales. From there it will give you many details and any information you need. If you feel you have more questions feel free to email me! Thanks for your time and have a great day! Hope this helped.

    I do the same thing I did when I was a kid and teen and that is anything! Ask around among your friends and neighbors and see if anybody needs some work done - house cleaning, car washing, running errands, baby sitting, yard work, dog walking, sewing, house sitting, etc. Tell them you need to make some money. Most people understand that. If they don't then the heck with 'em.

    Also look at your expenses - anything you can cut? Look again - there probably is something. Is what you need the quick cash for more important than cable TV or high speed internet? What about Starbucks, convinance store food, McDonalds, vending machines - do you waste money there? It won't be quick money, but it'll be some money.

    If you spend a great deal of time on the internet (this may be for you). Recently on my blog I wrote about a search engine that relies on people to scout the best sites on the Net and populate the search engine for more accurate search results--as opposed to the broader results you receive from program automated search engines today.

    As a live search guide your job will be to find the information other users need. Live guides scour the Web then rate and update search results so that queries are dead on. You can work from home part time/full time. Live Search Guides are compensated $5 per search hour--not too shabby considering you don't have to get up and leave the house and can do this all in your pajamas. The search engines url is chacha.com. For more free tips, howto's, and free stuff you can visit my blog www.theqbicle.com there's a ton of helpful stuff you can find and everything is free. Hope this helps!
