go buy cans of red bull and then return them without the receipt at target 10 dollars at a time.

then put all the money into a robinhood account and buy TSLA fractional shares. stop being poor the stock market is great.

"I need money for some other expense right now." Yes in the long run it's worse off but that you don't really care about that in the immediate term if you need to get your car fixed now, or need a little bit of extra money for rent to not get evicted (or to get your next fix because you're an addict.)

A bank will happily give you a small personal loan for like 10% interest. Trading in your beanBux at a 50% exchange rate is bad with money.

that’s how budgets function

A subset of those who are chronically without money do not know how to use money properly.

Eating is a pretty immediate need but if they end up in a situation where it's gotta be done people can spend a portion of their SNAP on rice and beans and then use these methods of turning it into into cash at a loss.

no they don't. go to a bank and get a real loan. Its awful with money to do otherwise.
