Title. I found out recently that I need some major dental work in the near future and I don’t have a damn clue how I am going to raise the extra money. I want to explore any realistic options for increasing my earnings before I have to resort to taking on debt, and I suspect that soliciting ideas in a semi-public place like this will turn up a lot of ideas I would never have considered myself.
I’m not very physically fit, but I am pretty good with computers generally, and I’ve picked up a little bit of programming in my free time this year, though I wouldn’t sell myself as a freelancer in that department or anything. I am also pretty good at proofreading / nitpicking things, my regular job is in QA.
Thank you in advance for any input.
What state do you live in? And would you be willing to try dental schools?
Dental schools are a great recommendation, but with complicated work, they still charge a bit
They do charge, but it would be less than similar work at a regular dentist’s. Which would hopefully reduce the amount of money OP needs, either getting him into care earlier, or reducing the amount of stress he has while he gets the money together.
I will look into the dental schools in my area, thank you. I was so focused on finding a local dentist that would take an uninsured patient that it completely slipped my mind.
