I really need some extra money?

Question

Ok, so my bills are piling up and I have a job where I work 9 hours a day 5 days a week so a second job is not an option. I put up signs for babysitting and i'm going to try to sell stuff on ebay. How else can i make extra money. It sucks because I just got a new car and my payments are double what they were before but I needed the car. Now my Boyfriend won a trip to Las Vegas but it would be nice to have some extra money to spend over there. After paying all my bills I don't have much left. Please help! How can I stop spending money on stuff I dont need? How can I make extra money without a second job OR online work? How can I save??? Also, considering i've never sold stuff on ebay before i probably need help gettin started.

Answer 1

I agree with the person that mentioned Dave Ramsey.

Girl, about "how can I stop spending money on stuff I dont need?", It's call SELF CONTROL....you know, the thing that seperates us humans from the animals.

have you ever heard of Dave Ramsey?  he has a talk radio show, he has published numerous books on finances, he teaches classes online and he is amazing.  I am currently taking one of his classes at my church it is called financial peace university.  we have been in the class for 3 weeks now, we meet once a week for 2 and a half hours and we have already saved 902.  not to mention the cut back in spending, my monthly gas total was 300 but in 3 short weeks i have cut that to 185 this is a savings of 115. I am a stay at home mom of 3 very busy active teenagers, and my husbands income is a mere 50000 a year we will pay off  22000 in debt in 18 months.  i have friends that have went through this class and they have already paid off well over 75000 in 11 months.
