[6] - Money Problems

Xander woke up groggily in a modern bed of his likings, he was very comfortable until he remembered what happened earlier.

'.... Another duty of mine to safeguard and supervise an unknown territory.' Xander wasn't dumb or an idiot, he didn't have too much pride on his head that it would literally make him dumber.

Although speculations were made that Xander's Multiverse was stronger than the 'AnimeVerse', it is still a 'speculation'. If he were to look through the timeline and history of this Universe, beings from the 'AnimeVerse' might locate him.

'.... Well I should prioritize my safebeing first.' Xander then started to plan things through especially living in a small apartment with no food and money, although he is a Cosmic Entity which food is not needed for living, Xander must prioritize building his leverages first, then gather information before making a move.

He looked around and only saw furniture, he wasn't the type that was so desperate for money that he needed to sell his personal things. Instead of panicking, he instead thought of a strategy how to get money fast.

'... I don't know a thing.' Nonetheless, Xander wasn't born in the Modern Era so he doesn't know many things that are supposed to be very common.

'I have only focused on maintaining the Universe's timeline that I have forgotten about many things.' Xander thought whilst sighing, eventually, he saw a smartphone in his pocket, he was familiar with it so he decided to search about things.

[Fastest way to earn money.]

He eventually tapped a site with a lot of pop-out ads and cookies, which annoyed him. But eventually, results came in.

'Does my phone have a virus on it? Should I try and ask someone about it?'

[ 1. TEST AND REVIEW WEBSITES FOR CASH

- If you spend a lot of time online, you might as well get paid to do it. Companies want to know if their websites are user-friendly and if there are ways to improve the online experience. Get paid $10 for visiting a website or trying out an app as a user tester and offering your input. ]

'... I beat that's very boring as fuck, like my previous 'job. XOXO.'

[ 2. DO SOMEONE ELSE'S CHORES

- Some people are too busy to pick up their own dry cleaning, assemble their out-of-box furniture, and even stand in line at the DMV, which works in your favor because they're willing to pay you for these tasks. Your mission: Sign up online to become a "Tasker" for TaskRabbit, which connects people for outsourcing errands and odd jobs, and start getting notifications of opportunities in your city. ]

'... Freyja, Bedelia, and even Julie might even laugh at me when I did this.' Xander was a Sigma Male who is the type to depend on himself rather than others.

[ 3. FILL OUT SURVEYS

- For those who love online quizzes or don't mind completing a survey, you can earn some quick cash with online surveys. Share your opinion with market research companies who want to know what people in your demographic really think about a given topic. ]

'Like the first one, meh.'

[ 4. SHOP ONLINE, LET THE DOUGH ROLL IN

- While you can save a great deal of cash by shopping the sales and entering in coupon codes when you check out of your online shopping cart, you can also get rewards for your online purchases. Earn a small percentage back on each purchase in exchange for cash or gift cards. ]

'What kind of an idiot put this in? People with no money are the only ones who would literally come and ask this how to get money fast.'

[ SNAP AND SELL YOUR PHOTOS

- These days, everyone's a photographer with their smartphone camera filters and photography apps. Now you can sell your photos to be used as stock photography and earn some side cash for your shutterbug skills. Who knows where your best shots will show up one day? ]

'...' Xander's feelings on this last one were neutral. Whilst it was a good way of gaining money easily especially with his face, he wouldn't want unnecessary people recognizing him in any way.

But soon Xander sighed as this was the only viable option, so he researched more and more about selling his image until he saw the thing that would eventually make him get money easily, as well as creating a leverage of him building his own foundations if this world's mortal side.

[INFLUENCERS / CONTENT CREATORS / LIVE-STREAMERS / MODELS / PHOTOGRAPHERS]

"Being an Influencer is a shitty job. You work under a contract, live under a contract, and go to public under a contract. Being 'under' someone just to boost their popularity seems to be cringe." Xander looked at the top influencers like Christiano Ronaldo. No one knows what his true face is, and it seems like he is 'acting a persona' under a contract of being someone 'perfect'.

(A/N: Ronaldo Fans I apologize for using CR7's name, however, note that this is only a Fanfic, so if I decided to, I could change his whole persona.)

'Perfect body, popular, handsome, famous and even being seen like a God? Hah! As if! Only a True God could do something like that' Xander snickered as he remember Claude who is a real definition of 'Perfect', but it was just a fake glass under that lazy God of Creation.

"Content Creators... So they are similar to an influencer except for the fact that they move for themselves whilst still being under a contract..." Xander looked through the phone and saw the top Content Creators which was Pewdiepie.

He was someone who just reviewed things like it was his job, a necessity to live in. But is still being paid by Companies just for advertising. Which was the best way to describe a 'Sponsorship'. But this didn't lower Xander's thoughts about it, in fact, it became higher.

'It's like using those companies just to get richer. However that only works for those at the top.'

"This is the best way to earn money very fast. Unlike the others which are being a Streamer, Model, or being a Photographer. I might do them in the future but I must prioritize money over anything else."

Why was Xander desperate for money very much? Because it can be used as leverage or evidence for living as a 'Normal Human Being'. He wasn't ready to step into the Supernatural World yet since he doesn't have information about it.

Whilst he knows almost everything in his own Universe, remember that he is only a small part of the 'Multiverse', So he also knew that he doesn't know everything else, especially when another Multiverse is added into the mix.

He may be a Cosmic Entity of Time, but he was still weaker than a Celestial Being like the Celestials who creates Universes. He wasn't afraid of anything else other than 'disappointing' his fellow members of the Council, it was a second chance for him. To live whilst being in the reality of living in his own fantasy.

Of not being alone anymore.

He may meet many people on his new journey here. But one thing that wouldn't change was how desperate he was on escaping his former life, desperate enough to throw away his profound pride of being a Cosmic Entity.

Xander was again excited about making money that he has created a Youtube Account of his own to become a Content Creator. Unlike Pewdiepie who reviews things, Xander's strategy would not be something common or cliche.

However, he froze when remembered one thing.

".... I don't have a Bank Account."
