Need Cash? Where to Find It Fast. - Kiplinger.com
The 'punch list' from the article:
1. Sell investments
2. Take out a margin loan
3. Tap your home equity
4. Research government aid
5. Boost your take-home pay (more withholding allowances!)
6. Cash convenience checks
(Those evil checks in credit card statements!)
7. Borrow from your 401(k)
8. Withdraw from your Roth IRA
9. Tap your life insurance
10. Borrow from strangers
11. Lean on family and friends
12. Sell Your Stuff
Brilliant stuff. I notice how 'spend less' never made the list, but I've found that to be the best way to put more money in MY wallet.
