Flat roof, I have $300; how do I fix this?

Fix the flashing. Or you could be a lazy nigger and smear mastic all over your roof. I hope that's a single hung window lol.

It tilts open with a chain and then there's an outer glass cover

Looks like this outside, is the flashing the metal base?

One thing you can do is open up that section of your ceiling so you can see what's going on inside since you need to fix it anyway. I'd spray water in specific spots on the roof and window to narrow down exactly where the leak is coming from before investing money in repairs. If you want, a cheap temporary solution would be to get a heavy duty tarp and put sandbags down. Or you can put mastic down like I said, but if it's the window assembly itself, you may need to replace it depending on what failed.

And if you can, post pics of your roof and skylight.

buy a bucket of asphalt sealant and do a couple layers
