What To Do If You’re Broke & Need Money Fast

I am without a car, have access to this computer in the library, am semi retired with little savings..$500 or so … wanted to ask your opinions on alternatives for me to make some money and get out of this situation….

Don Alm at SowPub answers…

1.Go to Walmart and get the following:

Plastic Bucket
1 Gallon of Vinegar
1 Scrub Brush
1 Window Squigee
1 Bag of Clean Rags

Go to the downtown district of your town, or a strip mall.

Walk in…introduce yourself and say the following;

“Hi…may I wash your windows for $10?”

They’ll either say, “Sure! Go ahead!”
or…”Nope! Someone else just washed them last week!” or…”Nope! Not today!”…whatever. Just take your stuff and go next door.

This is nothing magic BUT…$10 x 20 windows/day = $200 x 5days = $1,000 x 4 = $4,000 at the end of a month.

Just clean the windows by putting water in the bucket…pour in a capful of vinegar…slosh onto the window…squigee it…wiping the squigee with a rag after each swipe. When finished, go in and collect your 10 bux and go to the next store.

Then, after making this money

2. Go get a “$500 Special” car and go to Walmart and buy the following;

1 Garden Hose 100ft
A few Sponges
A gallon of “Car Wash” chemical
A few Chamois’s
Some clean rags

Go to a real estate office and offer to wash anyone’s car RIGHT NOW…in their parking lot… for $10.

Real Estate people WANT…”Clean Cars” because they take clients in them.

Later on when you have some more bux you can get a portable vac and some chemicals to clean the inside….and then you can get $25 or more for “Minor Detailing”….right there…in their parking lot.

Also…do a search in the archives here for “Jason Hatch”. Jason cleans the “Black Plastic” on cars sitting in car lots. He’s written a report on this business.
