Hi all. I am using my NC name so I can be linked to a couple of other threads I have posted about my relationship.

Short version is I need to ask my DP to leave. Due to the amount of money going out every month to his exw (which I do not mind at all I knew how much before DP and I got together) and also on his business finances are very tangled. I have been working hard to unravel them so that it makes it easier when I ask him to leave.

I imagined this would be some point in the new year but last night after an incident with my asd child he rolled his eyes when I told him and just said "attention seeking again then" and I just hated him in that moment. I need him to go. My child is in a bad place and said "DP doesn't care anyway" and needs help and support and not to be living with a man who dismisses mental health like that.

So I need to raise money very very quickly. I need to raise about £2k in order to be able to do this. I am looking for a new job but this will take time. In the meantime things I am going to do today:

List like mad on Ebay (I dont have too much as already did a lot for christmas money)
Books on amazon (have some of dd's a level books that are worth a bit second hand)
Looking for cleaning jobs
Advertising ironing

Has anyone got any other ideas please? I need to keep my child safe.
Thank you so much for any help or advice.

Sell jewellery. Even broken jewellery can be worth a bit if it's gold.

Could matched betting be an option? It's quick to generate income as long as you have about £25 to start off.

Sell on local selling sites (eg Facebook) - no postage etc to factor in then.
