I understand too. I have had zero dollars in the last two weeks. It's very stressful. I get paid every 3 months, and when I poorly manage my finances I end up in situations like this...the only bill that didn't get paid last month was my car insurance, and I can't wait until the 4th so that I can take care of it. Anyway, since that's the case I wasn't too bad off...I've been in worse situations.

I researched donating plasma....it looks like you can make $40 each time you donate....I'd do it but there are no donation centers around me that pay. MAybe you could look into it?
