I've never had a good computer. My first computer was a cheapshit wangblows vista machine that shat the bed in less than 5 years and my second computer was a $350 Chromebook that could barely handle a single Google search but that was all I could afford. It lasted about 6 years and then that was the last computer I ever had, and that was about a decade ago. I wanna do stuff but everything I want to do relies on tools I will never be able to afford because I don't have the skills required to earn the amount of money to buy the tools required to acquire those skills. Fuck my shitskin poornigger phoneposter life.

Damn I'm sorry OP. Hang in there. I've seen used Chromebooks on ebay for $32 shipped, actually great condition too and works well (pic related, it's not super fast but definitely decent, 4gb ram is a must, it's also convertible which is neat), just bookmark the eBay search then check it everyday. I know $32 is so much for you so I apologize man, try to work every way you can, maybe GoFundMe and post sob story on Reddit, if you're brown they'll like you and take pity maybe. Run a GoFundMe to buy $100 Chromebook, then buy the $32 one and spend the rest on food. Try to pretend to be an egirl and then tell them your sob story about rent being due. Try as many online income methods as possible from your phone (only legit ones, never spend money, anything that asks for money is a scam.) Shilling a Gofundme on Reddit is safe and non-scam.

How are you doing this bad? Do you live with parents or family? Have you looked for a job? Any job?

>>82877028
I have a job, I live in my own in a piece of shit studio apartment in Arizona. I just don't get paid much at all and every time I do get paid it just pretty much immediately evaporates.

when i was making $8 an hour after college i started selling random vintage clothes from thrift stores on etsy and was making double my coffee shop paycheck in three or four months. its the only thing i do now and i make 3k-5k a month without trying all that hard, but obv i benefit from a long established store with lots of good reviews and such.

if you are near nogales, tucson or phoenix, you ought to just hang out at the goodwill outlets all day when you have time off, if you can get there. those places are gold mines really, if youre willing to do the work of sorting through the goods carefully. most ppl who hang out there just take a quick look and go back on their phones, and even they make ok money usually. they mostly spend it on drugs but w/e, thats not exactly a requirement.

stuff at the outlets is usually $1.50 to $2.50 a pound, which means sweaters/sweatshirts/jeans are like $3-$5, and t-shirts and lightweight things are like fifty cents or less.

there are a lot of moms who do this as well and they seem to just get lululemon/nike/adidas athleisure stuff thats still in good shape and sell it on ebay/poshmark, so thats another thing to try getting. if you dont know anything at all about clothes, just get anything nike thats in good shape and put it on ebay for $19.99, you will turn a reasonable daily profit from that alone.

if youre not near a goodwill outlet, you can still do this from regular goodwills/salvation armies but you will have to be choosier in what you get as things will cost more. dont bother with other thrift stores, they are all overpriced...goodwill and salvation army are way cheaper cause they are nonprofits run largely by special individuals and/or drug addicts in recovery.

Can't you just get a lot of credit card debt and use it to fix your life?
>>
>>82877610
who's gonna give a loan to the poorfag who has literally a dime to his name
>>
>>82877797
thats literally what discover is for

if you pay your own utility bills then you probably have enough credit history to get one

probably not good advice for someone with no money though...getting 20% interest credit card debt will only make it worse.

ive got one of these, used surface book 3, can play pretty much everything worth playing aka turtle wow and old rts games. touch screen as well, and it even detaches from the base as a tablet, meaning you can replace the whole base easey peasey if you break keys or ports or spill something on it. all the "computer" parts are actually behind the detachable screen.

good-enough computers are butt cheap these days really...some people however just dont buy anything used for some reason. im guessing thats op's problem because how else would you pay $350 for a chromebook? even 10 yrs ago like he said, you could get a used netbook for $150-200 that was a real computer instead of neutered junk like a chromebook. i know cause i did that. it was pretty slow with the win7 it came with, but it ran fine with a light version of ubuntu.
