<prompt> Human: Hey Personal Finance Folks,Im moving to New York the end of October. Ive secure a job full time job45hrs a week that pays 14hr. My job is in Brooklyn and Id prefer to live somewhere reasonably close. Ive looked for some rooms to rent and Ive found some places that are 700-800 a month which means the upfront cost for first, last and security will be at 2400 at most.Ill be going on a family tripgrandpas funeral, other grandpas birthday from now till the end of October so I have no way of making money till my move. Right now I have 140 saved up and another 1000 coming in from work and some freelance stuff. Realistically Ill be spending quite a lot of it on my family trip.What options do I have for coming up with the upfront cost for rent? I have a credit card with a limit of 2300 limit. Im thinking of paying the initial cost for a room with thathoping that its just firstsecurity using a service called RadPad. I know there are various factors in terms of if somebody is subletting or whatnot so maybe some people might be sketched out by the whole paying with a credit card thing especially when there are loads of people who have cash to pay the full amount. I just know that the interest on the credit card will be steep and I figured you guys might have a better solution? I know Ill be on the instant noodle diet for a while till I get on top of everything.Thanks guys!EDIT: Thanks for all your helpful tips and encouragement. Ive decided to Airbnb room share it for a month725 then work hard and save uphunt for a longer term place within the month.  <response>: It doesnt sound like you can afford to go on a vacation lasting over a month.
