THEN after that one fell flat, my next idea was to make some horrible TV reality show where we put homosexuals, women and generally effeminate metrosexual men that can sing well but without any style and have them fight for popularity. THEN we'd have everyone watching send text messages to vote for them, thus racking up more millions.

Unfortunately these will never see the light of day.

BRILLIANT!!!

Im selling Acai Berries for free. They fight cancer, promote weight loss and provide endless sex energy. Just give me your credit card info to cover shipping and Ill charge you $79.99 per month for 30 day supplies within 15 days if you dont cancel first. If you do cancel, Ill charge you $79.99 cancellation fee and sign you up for a "free" trial of something else, probably an auto club membership for $9.99 per month or a shopping discount service for $19.99 per month. Be sure to cancel those within 15 days too, but you cant escape the cancellation fees.

Ill make millions doing this. :evil:

Our Industry hasn't been peforming too well, in the past we used to look at about 15% return on investment but thats dropped markedly due to higher funding costs in recent months. I guess we need to improve the credibility of our business model.

It worked for me.

If you had any idea how much some affiliate marketers make, it'd blow your mind. There are guys out that are earning 5 - 8% on the money they invest into ads per day... and that's with budgets of around a million bucks per day. So, yeah, free ipods might seem like a joke, but there are guys out there who make $15 million per year off equally stupid things.

i already got it going - but you have to define "quick"

try a vision of unrealized potential that is really necessary for everyone and then network with your trusted friends to achieve it

Patent something that everybody uses, so the companies that make it have to pay you royalties. You need initial money to invest though.

Like for example, patent the screw. Imagine the chaos that would be though. That's more something you do if you're just pissed off at the world.

Another scheme is to invest some money into a multi billion dollar corporation. The corporation does not really need to do anything, it's just a corporation. You get money from shares. Then you just fold. Kinda like Enron. You probably want to go live in another country after that or you'll get shot.

Oh, and can't forget, just get hurt somewhere. Then you can sue anyone potentially at fault, such as the company that built whatever it is you got hurt on, the one who owns it, etc...
That is the American way of making millions, and it works!

As for ways that wont piss people off, that's a secret.

the getting hurt idea is a *fail*

insurance companies get rich NOT paying

getting a large amount in a settlement when you are not badly hurt is a crapshoot with the odds way against you
:thumbsdown:

up to the 1980s it used to work more often

One of the best money making schemes I was involved in was organ sales. Basically, I would go to a third world country and collect the organs of the dead innocents. I preferred to go to countries where warlords ruled, so I could just pay them off and ride along with their death squads. This made it much easier to collect fresh organs. I would then transport the organs to the west where they would be sold. I had to mark up the price considerably because of the payoffs to the warlords. I really didn't want to piss them off, or else it would be my organs being sold. In the end, I decided it was too dangerous of a game to play in so I got out. Made lots of money though.

Absolutely correct! No layoffs with slavery. You can walk to work. And you get free housing.

my dear friend you are in luck

Dear Sir,

Good day and compliments. This letter will definitely come to you as a huge surprise, but I implore you to take the time to go through it carefully as the decision you make will go off a long way to determine the future and continued existence of the entire members of my family.

Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Dr. (Mrs.) Mariam Abacha, the wife of the late head of state and commander in chief of the armed forces of the federal republic of Nigeria who died on the 8th of June 1998.

My ordeal started immediately after my husband's death on the morning of 8th June 1998, and the subsequent take over of government by the last administration. The present democratic government is determined to portray all the good work of my late husband in a bad light and have gone as far as confiscating all my late husband's assets, properties, freezing our accounts both within and outside Nigeria. As I am writing this letter to you, my son Mohammed Abacha is undergoing questioning with the government. All these measures taken by past/present government is just to gain international recognition.

I and the entire members of my family have been held incommunicado since the death of my husband, hence I seek your indulgence to assist us in securing these funds. We are not allowed to see or discuss with anybody. Few occasions I have tired traveling abroad through alternative means all failed.

It is in view of this I have mandated DR GALADIMA HASSAN, who has been assisting the family to run around on so many issues to act on behalf of the family concerning the substance of this letter. He has the full power of attorney to execute this transaction with you.

My late husband had/has Eighty Million USD ($80,000,000.00) specially preserved and well packed in trunk boxes of which only my husband and I knew about. It is packed in such a way to forestall just anybody having access to it. It is this sum that I seek your assistance to get out of Nigeria as soon as possible before the present civilian government finds out about it and confiscate it just like they have done to all our assets.

I implore you to please give consideration to my predicament and help a widow in need.

May Allah show you mercy as you do so?

Your faithfully,

Dr (Mrs.) Mariam Abacha (M.O.N)

N/B: Please contact Dr Galadima Hassan on this e-mail address for further briefing and modalities
