<prompt> Human: I am graduating in December and moving for a teaching job. I have already signed the contract. Since I have been student teaching and not working, I only have 1500. Its going to cost me 700 to move into my apartment and then my January rent of 900 will be due shortly thereafter so thats all my cash right there before my first paycheck.I have zero furniture due to living in student housing. Theoretically I could just sleep on a blanket on the floor until I get my first paycheck but Id like to get a mattress. Other furniture I can wait. Additionally I do have professional clothes but I have lost weight and they fall off me to the point I look pretty sloppy. I also have to pay several hundred dollars to finish the certification process. Plus getting utilities set up, and other things that might pop up.How bad of an idea is it to charge all of those things to my credit card 6000 limit? Since I havent been making money Ive been charging like 10 a month and paying it off so theres no balance at the moment. The interest is absolutely terrible 24 APR but my idea is that I would pay it all off within two pay checks, potentially before the first bill is even due if the timing works out.Even if it is a bad idea, what other options do I have? I am finishing my current internship until the 18th and my new job starts the 4th so I couldnt really get a temporary job in that short span of time.If I really need the help my dad would loan me moneybail me out but I am trying to handle it on my own first. Advice?  <response>: Asking a parent for help if theyre willing is better than paying credit card interest. Especially since its hopefully a temporary shortfall that will not be an issue once your paychecks start coming in.Alternatively, if your credit is decent you can apply for a new credit card with a typical 12-18 month 0 rate, and then you dont have to worry about paying interest in the few weeksmonths that you carry a balance.
