Money Money MONEY!!!

My expense this month is sky rocketing at an extreme rate and I don't know when it's going to stop. First was the timing belt in my car that cost my $330. Now today I come back to my car to realize the battery died on my. Jumping the car was only effective for a while, as it died again by the time I got to the dealership. Leaving my car there for the night, I should be expecting a payment of about $100 tomorrow as they will replace my battery. Already having spent around $450, I spent around $100 more on grocery this month, $60 on gas, $60 on a gym locker, and $20 on my haircut. Considering I will make at most $400 at my part-time job this month, I will be in major deficit.

I am planning on starting up this new business called ETS (English Tutor through Skype). The concept is to help Koreans (that live in Korea) maintain/improve their English speaking ability through skyping with a native American. I am trying to recruit both my American friends as teachers and Koreans as students. For now, both sides are not responding as positively as I thought they would. Both sides think having a 1:1 skype session will be too awkward. But in the end, wouldn't it just be easy money for the teacher and a great way to practice your English for the Koreans?

I am trying to find ways to make more money but it's obviously not as easy as it sounds.

Why couldn't I just have been born an American so I could've gotten that Obama Scholarship to ASU and don't have to worry about any of these expenses. Damn.
