Try selling stuff on Craigslist - You'll have the cash in your hand and ready to spend much faster than Ebay, in my experience. Also, ask family friends if they'd like a babysitter, have their lawn mowed, or hell, even their houses cleaned. You'd be amazed how many lazy-ass housewives will shell out for a little dusting and scrubbing.

Sorry that I can't tell you the secret that makes $500 appear in your hands instantly. However, if you'd like to learn, send a letter to me with a money order for $500. :-D
If he came here and cleaned my house, took care of the lawn, helped in the gardens and did odd jobs, I'd pay him 500$
And it would be honest money for honest work. But it would be hard work too.
