Make exactly $39
I make that in an hour of work. So… keep doing what I’m doing?
Even if I didn’t make that at my normal job, or it was non-business hours when I can’t just go to work for money, I feel like $40 in 3 hours is pretty doable with just gig work (grocery/restaurant delivery, Uber).
Ask my friends to transfer money real quick.
sell a joke to my family for $40.
Get laid, make money. I just need one.
Sell some stocks I guess.
Unless you mean my net worth has to go up $40? In which case, I’ll probably look for someone who would be willing to pay me $40 ahead of time to teach them some machine learning over some negotiable span of time. Or to build a website or something. There are lots of businesses in the area that could use it, and $40 is insanely cheap for something like that.
Get a loan from the local loan shark.
Go to the roulette table at the casino. Bet it all on 32.
Lose my bet.
Go back to the local loan shark for $40.
Bet the $40 at the roulette table.
Lose.
Repeat until either I get the money to pay the loan shark and save my family. Or I gues it’s RIP for my family and my kneecaps.
Time to get into sex work.
I don’t have anything I could sell that quickly, even.
Was my first thought tbh.
Sell my car to the next person who walks by, I guess.
But I’ll hint to them (family) strongly that I won’t be selling two cars, so they need to get less explodey.
Easy. Sell a gun on FB Marketplace for a ridiculously low asking price. It would sell faster than I would be banned.
Sell my shirt to my dad for $40. I’m pretty sure he’d rather buy my shirt than explode.
Um…my job?
Right? 3 hours is $288. Any other families that need not exploding?
Depends how you define “make”
If standard pay from job is too late, then I’d sell a CSP or CC from my brokerage account and I technically “made” the premium
If that’s not urgent enough, take some jewelry to a pawn shop and hock it
Run to the neighbours and try to sell some DVDs
Go to work for an hour
Take my bottles to the depot
Ask a buddy to spot me 40
Sell a couple things
… check my bank account?
$40 isn’t that much money…
