I have to survive 2 weeks with 100 bucks.

[I got 1984'd]

If any of you have been through something like this, how did you or would you spend the last remaining 100 dollars, to last you for two weeks?

My work had temporarily gave leave to all personnel, without pay, due to covid19. This was 4 months ago.

I don't pay rent thank god and my car's been paid off. No kids. No gf/wife, just me.

I've been burning through my savings ever since and the $1,200 stimulus check is gone, unemployment pay just extended but it's mainly covering my insurances and utilities. Really bummed about my savings going up in flames but whatever.

My work has told me they will allow us back at work at home this time, with immediate advance pay for certain employees which includes me. But in 2 weeks.

I only have 100 dollars left. I'm low on food stocks and gasoline.

If you were me, and you only had 100 dollars, how would you spend the remaining money to ensure that it lasts?

Rice

Do a go fund me on how you would like to write a book "How to live on hundred dollars for two weeks guide".

Or do you have any other talents that could go on go fund me?

Dude, I've survived 2 weeks with no bucks and 5lbs of rice.

We can survive a long time without food because when we eat we eat such a large quantity of nutrients since by nature we're so laborious. That's why Americans are so fat. We have so much abundance of food since our population is MUCH MUCH lower than others. We have an abundance of UNUSED land.

When you have a job you do work for the government. That's why you're a citizen, you provide and a share. None of this would work without team effort.

Buy pasta and tomato sauce stay home watch TV and sleep you will end up with money left after 2 weeks

I have survived much worse times with much less. Get food stamps/aid. Typically churches provide a wealth of foodstuffs and toiletries for down-on-their-luck folks. You have to apply yourself whilst controlling impulse shopping. You'd be surprised how much aid is available for the public.

Deli meat. Loaf of bread. Rice. And some veggies. You can probably get 2 weeks worth for around $20.

Drink water.

Buy some money with money.

There are shops traditionally called "grocery outlets" where supermarkets send all of their old food for resale. Can easily get 5 or 10lb of mostly-good potatoes for $2, and 2 lbs of carrots for another $2 or so.

Vitamin C and protein can be a little more expensive, but $1 hotdog packs are perfectly fine and you can splurge on beans and rice to supplement your potatoes. Most gelatin mixes are loaded with vitamin c powder as well, so if you can make it to a restauraunt supply store you can easily buy a month's worth of the stuff for about $0.79.

Should have a solid extra $10 a week for things like lettuce, bread, milk, more veggies or whatnot without breaking a $20/week budget.

1. buy food for 40$
2. buy gasoline for 30$
3. save the 30$ for something important running out in the next 2 weeks
have a good time and dont hesitate to contact your bank account manager for a credit limit extension.

Should be rather easy to survive two weeks in North Korea with $100

The money isn't what you have to worry about.

Don't be afraid to ask for a handout if you actually need it. Like food stamps.

I know that is frowned upon and ridiculed. But we live in tough times.

I would actually be finding out if they have any sort of local aid where you live. Like sooner than later.
