Rent Quick Cash

Synopsis

Quick Cash explores seven fundamental strategies that can be used to raise funds and manage financial hurdles during life's bumps in the road. This motivational, how-to guide goes beyond the standard personal finance book. It offers advice and instruction for those who have experienced some unplanned change-a job loss, unexpected death or divorce-and what a person can do to meet day-to-day living expenses when these sudden changes occur. It also offers advice for planned transitions where current income does not meet current expenses-going back to school, getting married or starting a family.

This consumer-friendly, nuts-and-bolts guide is designed to help the reader focus on what he or she has-instead of on what is not available. It urges the reader to explore several options in order to raise Quick Cash: -- Borrow-from friends and/or family with pointers to keep both sides on friendly terms -- Borrow-against good credit, iffy credit or no credit -- Pawn something-how to do it -- Cash something in-borrowing against life insurance or your 401(k) -- Sell something-collectibles, antiques, garage sales -- Earn it-overtime, freelancing, temping -- Find it-track down money that people have lost
