LOL, I just stated watching that show – Piper was working in the electric shop and they mentioned how they were making 15 cents an hour, or something like that. Never get out of debt that way!

I mentioned plasma donation to my hubby. His work is very physical, so I thought he might be interested in sitting around for a couple of hours as a side hustle. I’ve never visited any of those places myself though, so I’m not sure who would be there with him :/

I couldn’t do anything illegal. The thought of going to jail scares me. LOL. I do admire people that work longer hours, pick up extra shifts or work 7 days a week to pay off debt.

Let’s re-phrase that last one… if you could do something illegal and GET AWAY WITH IT, I think you’d have more takers. :)

I have thought about donating plasma, as far as selling furniture-no. As far as illegal, no.

I would donate plasma and even though I would look like a spaz, humiliate myself being a sign spinner if it absolutely came to that. I have had some pretty bad part-time jobs and sold stuff when times were tough so I would definitely do it to pay off debt. Must be legal though.

Going to jail is the ultimate budget buster! I always thought white collar jail wouldn’t be so bad (think martha stewart country club jail) but now that I’ve seen “Orange is the New Black” things have changed! :-)

Sell furniture? Of course! I once lived a year with a dresser made from stacked cardboard boxes and duct tape. Furniture is not a necessity!

Medical donation? Personally I find it sorta skeevy, at least around here the only people who are donating plasma are junkies. Not the crowd I want to hang out with for an extra $15 every two weeks.
