Topic	I want a Switch, but I have negative $$. How do I get the money for one?
KujikawaRising 10/27/17 1:00:34 PM #1:	I have some ideas... Sell some of the random junk I have laying around Sell my PS4 Ask my parents for a loan Beg for money on the street Learn to program and code an app Write a novel (NaNoWriMo?) Make shit to sell on Etsy Go to the casino and try to not fail at poker Get a second job on weekends Be a nerd View Results After BedbugGate, I am broke and am struggling to pay bills. I need cash. If I want to play Breath of the Wild and Super Mario Odyssey, I'm going to need the $400+ necessary for a Switch and both of those games in addition to that bill money. Coming up with that money is going to take a few months. Most of these ideas don't feel logical to me, so I have to ask what I try first. 1. Sell random junk I have I have LPs, Yu-Gi-Oh cards, a couple jigsaw puzzles, an Amiibo or three, and some other odds and ends PROS: Might be profitable, would clean up my room CONS: Seller fees, some things might not be sellable after BedBugGate (LPs might be melted?) 2. Sell PS4 Uncharted 4 SE, lightly used, well taken care of PROS: Guaranteed money, instant CONS: Would not be able to play games I liked again (Persona 5, Uncharted 4) or other games I want to play (Berseria, Lost Legacy, Danganronpa [which I own]), would need to use some of that money on my bills 3. Ask parents for loan I feel bad even thinking of this after they already helped save me from the bedbugs PROS: Would be okay, instant CONS: Already bailed me out in BedbugGate, would charge interest because, I feel bad 4. Beg for money on the street Would be honest to an extent: "Bedbugs invaded my home and I don't want to lose it. Help me not be homeless." PROS: Makes more than my current job, could be used from a research standpoint CONS: Bad for my reputation (could damage friendships or love interests), feels unethical *We have a lot of beggars here, some that just use the money on cigarettes. I'd be better than them, but not by much. 5. Code an app** Or two. Would start with something simpler. Android only. PROS: Interests me, would be possible since I taught myself HTML CONS: Too time-consuming, too competitive, requires constant updates to maintain profits 6. Write a novel When the levee breaks, I'll have no place to stay PROS: Rough draft can be done in a month via NaNoWriMo, have English degree, have concept, if done right could impress girls CONS: Would require three months of revisions, would likely have to self-publish (less profitable), time would be a problem 7. Sell shit on Etsy Where do I come up with these ideas? PROS: Could have a larger audience, would be fun, have access to a makerspace CONS: Don't know what to make, low skill, craft materials can be expensive 8. Poker I'd have to be all-in... PROS: Can take the $100 and turn it into more than I need for a Switch, possibly overnight CONS: Could lose $100 in 20 minutes and be even more broke, cost of gas money (casino with poker is an hour away), I probably have a lot of tells 9. Second job on weekends I should've thought of this over the summer... PROS: Guaranteed money, good for resume, impresses girls, more opportunities to meet people, easy to get at grocery store CONS: Fatigue due to seasonal allergies and affectivity, lack of free time leading to sanity issues 10. Being a nerd Help me, board 8 PROS: slycooper69 CONS: crazyisgood I don't know what the most logical option is here. There might be other options, and if you have 'em, let me know! --- http://i.imgur.com/t3naEGu.jpg I'm BlueCrystalTear, probably at work. <cite>KujikawaRising posted [p:889253990] in I want a S...
