<prompt> Human: I need some help. I got a full ride but no dorm, so Im staying home. I have one month to get my drivers license before school starts, but I need insurance and have no money to pay for it. The cheapest insurance in MS for an 18yo male is 200 a month, and that is being added on my stepdads insurance, and would be significantly higher if I got it on my own. I have been advised to take out a student loan, but I am terrified of going into debt. The only scholarship I received was a 500 scholarship, of which 300 I used for a computer for college. I only have 200 left and need to pay for car insurance and books. I thought about biking, but I would have to go on long roads without sidewalks and dangerous areas to get there. Does anyone have any advice or ideas of what to do because I dont want to start off on the wrong footAssistant: do you have a job? can you get a job?a part time minimum wage job should easily cover basic car expenses if youre living at home for free have minimal other expenses.Human: How would I even go about that?
