OK guys I'm a financial pleb I currently have 1 day a week

$985 a month.
-$550 rent
-$100 bills
-$200 groceries

Save it and continue to look for better work.
There are no shortcuts, unless you're smart. If you were smart you wouldn't be asking questions like this on /biz/

Get a new job.

Learn how to talk to people.

How can I make such a small amount grow?

I always hear "Oh well if you had a million bucks you can just put it in a high yield bond and live off the interest." Anytime I look at numbers it seems like it be better to spend the million in investments that may or may not come to fruition then waste the opportunity and the time letting it sit for 2%. Is there no way to start snowballing a $185 month investment.

Of course Im chomping at the bit for better work every day but until that day comes I'd like to do what I can on the side to increase my standard of living.

>Get a new job.
Working on it.
>Learn how to talk to people.
I feel very confident in my ability to talk to people. Could you clarify? Like learn how to kiss ass?
>S P E C I A L I S E in a skill, trade, or quality.
It seems any trade (plumber, welder, programming etc) requires schooling I cant afford or get loans for. Behind the 8 ball on this one

No it made everything much much worse. No joke

Go the the local bar/cafe and ask if they need people.
Tell them you don't mind what kind of work and ask the employer if he wants it off the books.
9/10 is always looking for someone

You can learn programming yourself through the net. There are tons of sites (i remember at least 5) where you can learn a programming language for free.

This

You can freelance.

Spend your free time bettering yourself instead of masturabtion, vista, and 4chan.

Learn a programming language RIGHT NOW. If you don't, or if you give up, you deserve to be poor.
