Default I need to generate some cash...pronto!

Like a lot of people the recent gaming act has caused me some serious cash-flow problems. At the moment I could use some ideas on how to generate immediate cash. I'm not talking millions, and I do mean immediate. Please don't pipe up with suggestions to rob banks or become a prostitute. Any ideas at all appreciated.

When I was in college I used to sell sterling silver. if you can find it at auctions cheap enough, you can resell to an assayer. Price is about $12/oz now.

Honestly, I don't think you're going to find any get-rich-quick type of info around here. At least not any that works.

Ask your parents if you can mow the lawn.

Go to apartment complexes or condos and get aluminum cans. Pays 52 cents a pound here in FL. One of my friends did this and I helped. He made 200 bucks for the week. That is a hell of a lot of cans. He would not take a loan from me.

Hit garage sales and buy stuff super cheap...resell on ebay. Look for cheap cars in the classifieds and check out what they bring on ebay in similar condition..."Auto flipping?" I've done this with a 1994 Lexus SC400 bought for 3,000, drove it for a while and when I needed some cash sold it on ebay for 6200. Just don't sell more than two cars a month or the state will hassle you about getting a dealer's permit.

Go to garage sales that have designer kids clothes. If the parents aren't going to have any more kids, then you should be able to pick up the clothes for cheap. Resell on ebay.

get rid of anything you can live without and have your own garage sale. Rent a small spot at a flea market and you can get a bit more for your garage sale items. If you sell the items cheap enough you should be able to sell out the other vendors and not be there too long.
