    RL MMO dilemma(advice)

    Long story short: Just finished med school, 2 weeks until foreclosure, need $1200, no job, no relatives with cash, and I'm trying to save my sanity lol

    Despite the forum name I picked, I've been busting my ass this past year. Took the initiative to switch careers to something I never thought I would see myself working in. I made it past that hurdle, now I'm sittin here idle because I need funds for my last month of extern...after that is a guaranteed job. The kicker is I have 1 more loan dispersement....after I finish externship. Shit is making me crazy, I've been plotting on this one idea lately, but I wanted to see if this is just desperation talking lol

    Would this work: Take my debit card with $1.50 in the bank, order some shit online to ebay, call up the bank and give bogus story(lil bro took my card), pay that shit back in a couple months.

    Dumb idea? Maybe I should collect 'donations' on the street like a true bum, but with scrubs on and a young face. Homeless folk might kick my ass though lol

    thanks dudes,

    long time lurker, future ffxiv junkie

    You bought a house, but have no job?

    Take out a loan? Talk to your bank?
    Foreclosing is usually a big loss to the bank so they'll almost always work with you to avoid it.

    Committing fraud won't do you any favors in the long run, believe me.

    Awww if I would've won that CA lottery I would lend ya a hand but that's only applying a band aid to a potential problem. I hope you can find someone on here or outside of the forums to give ya some financial advice to get you back on your feet.

    It's sad to see desperate people cause who knows what they'll do when the time comes. Don't do something you'll end up regretting.

    Keep your chin up & head straight please ^^

    pretty sure your only option here is to kill somebody.

    all seriousness aside, defo try get a loan from the bank as mentioned above, you're just finished med school, you should have reasonable enough job prospects for the bank to accept giving you a loan.

    You wouldn't know that though because you've demonstrably never picked up a book nor educated yourself on the matter. Let me guess, overweight housewife?

    ^^^^^ Just get a CC and do a cash advance on it, then pay the cc off as you can.

    only thing is try and get it through a bank so you can know asap if you get approved ( since you only have two weeks).
