    I feel like this is a “straight” boys wet dream. Perfect ‘no homo’ excuse to suck a dick.

    “I did it to save my family”.

      Even if I didn’t make that at my normal job, or it was non-business hours when I can’t just go to work for money, I feel like $40 in 3 hours is pretty doable with just gig work (grocery/restaurant delivery, Uber).

    Get a loan from the local loan shark.

    Go to the roulette table at the casino. Bet it all on 32.

    Lose my bet.

    Go back to the local loan shark for $40.

    Bet the $40 at the roulette table.

    Lose.

    Repeat until either I get the money to pay the loan shark and save my family. Or I gues it’s RIP for my family and my kneecaps.

    Time to get into sex work.

    I don’t have anything I could sell that quickly, even.

    Sell some stocks I guess.

    Unless you mean my net worth has to go up $40? In which case, I’ll probably look for someone who would be willing to pay me $40 ahead of time to teach them some machine learning over some negotiable span of time. Or to build a website or something. There are lots of businesses in the area that could use it, and $40 is insanely cheap for something like that.

    Sell my car to the next person who walks by, I guess.

    But I’ll hint to them (family) strongly that I won’t be selling two cars, so they need to get less explodey.

    Sell my shirt to my dad for $40. I’m pretty sure he’d rather buy my shirt than explode.

    Easy. Sell a gun on FB Marketplace for a ridiculously low asking price. It would sell faster than I would be banned.

    Depends how you define “make”

    If standard pay from job is too late, then I’d sell a CSP or CC from my brokerage account and I technically “made” the premium

    If that’s not urgent enough, take some jewelry to a pawn shop and hock it
