It's no secret that the American criminal justice system can be downright cruel. Sometimes, good people make bad decisions, and before you know it, they're facing years behind bars. But fear not, dear Wibble reader. We've got some tips and tricks to help you finance your friend's incarceration and get them back home where they belong.
Tip #1: iTunes Gift Cards
First and foremost, you're going to need some serious cash. And what better way to do that than by buying stacks on stacks of iTunes gift cards? Sure, it might seem a little unorthodox, but desperate times call for desperate measures. Plus, who doesn't love a good tune to rock out to while they're on the inside?
Tip #2: Start a GoFundMe
In today's digital age, there's nothing quite like the power of social media. So why not put that power to good use and start a GoFundMe page for your friend's bail money? All you have to do is share the link with your friends and family and watch the donations roll in. Who knows? If you're lucky, maybe even a few strangers will chip in a few bucks.
Tip #3: Get Creative
If iTunes gift cards and GoFundMe pages just aren't cutting it, it's time to get creative. Have you considered taking out a second mortgage on your house? Selling your prized collection of beanie babies on eBay? Renting out your basement on Airbnb? The possibilities are endless.
Of course, while these tips may seem like a good idea in theory, it's important to remember that financing your friend's incarceration is not a decision to be made lightly. So, before you rush out and buy all the iTunes gift cards you can find, take a step back and consider all the other options. And if you're still at a loss, just remember that The Wibble has got your back - and your friend's.
