I personally do not like Ikea furniture, though the prices can be tempting. The ability to support much more weight and quality of materials can be much higher with a little elbow grease an a bit more money.

And OP says they have five dollars to their name, so a more appropriate suggestion would be to construct an Amazon-type door desk using free file cabinets and an old door from the free section of Craigslist. If OP is lucky enough they may find an actual desk there.
