When I worked graveyard (hard to sleep daytime) in Vegas years ago, I used to lay at the foot of the bed and watch TV. The "white noise" lulled me to sleep...
In your case, turn it up loud enough to drown out the noisy neighbors but just enough to fall asleep..
Uggh, taking in tv while you're sleeping messes up your subconscious / psyche. Just my opinion.
What about women las vegas drunk?Sadly if your not a smooth talker or look like brad pitt dating can get very spendy if your a man.And when you make 8.25 an hour like me, your dating options get reduced to bag lady or crack *****.Sometimes I really hate money and pine for a hunter gatherer sociaty.

With our huge aging population, there are any number of seniors, living alone in a house, who would probably welcome some roommate/social company, and if you have any skills which would be of help to them, like cooking or handyman type skills, they might have you under their roofs for little or nothing.
I'm 61, and I've been doing that for years now, being very selective for a tenant, and the last two have been expert handymen, can fix anything in my house at the snap of a finger! And you don't think I appreciate having them around my house!!!!
A month ago, my roof leaked, and my tenant climbed up to the roof and fixed the leak. He even built me a custom-designed 8 foot bookshelf/room divider in my living room, and with that, I told him to skip a month's rent!
I keep the rent dirt cheap, and to show even more appreciation, I share everything I cook with them, if they so desire it!
Now if only these two had had some auto mechanic skills, then, in addition to free rent, I'd be in debt to them!!!

Reason: change word
I'm amazed at how so many of you make it on so little. It is inspiriring to hear some of these stories. I have always struggled, but I do make more than minimum wage.
The stupid car payment holds me back, but before that, I had car repairs every month, so who knows...
I'm not knocking you for not ditching your TV/internet....but there is a thing called....READING and getting books from the library. I know. It's a lost art. But I thought I'd suggest it.
If I don't have the tv on while I read, I'm unconscious in seconds.
I should make time for the library. I just clean house on the weekends and veg. It was much easier to go when I lived closer.
I would hang out with a broke guy. But, how do you meet one? Since we rarely go out because of lack of funds...rather difficult.
