<prompt> Human: Hello all, optional account here.I lost my job last month abruptly and it has seriously crippled me financially. I thought I could get another one quick but it took longer than expected. I applied for Unemployment late in august and ive yet to receive it.My landlord has gave to the end of this friday to get the money for rent 400. I am working now but I will still need time to catch up and he doesnt seems t understand or care. I have no family to lean on, no siblings, and my parents are both dead.I was wondering if I should get apply for a credit card and use it to pay for rent.How long does credit card gives people an option for repayment. I am still looking for a second job to cover bills. Should I take out a credit card to pay rent?  <response>: Dont blame your landlord for this. Its not that he doesnt understand or doesnt care, its that he has his own bills to pay and needs your rent payment to fulfill his own obligations. Do you have something you can sell? Clothes you dont wear anymore? A computer? Could you find some manual labor gig that pays cash day of? That is likely your best bet given the short timeline.
