Re: $1M in 5 Years---Help!
If you want to be RICH in this country.....
1) Dont get in the habit of working for others especially corporations. Corporations exist not to make you rich but to make shareholders rich, they will work you as hard as possible for as little money as possible. 2) Buy real estate ASAP. Keep buying more. Put most of your money in Real Estate where there are good school....(look for Jewish and Asian kids that will be a good tip off that the schools are great) 3) Control expenses......seems obvious but most of money management is back end...see Mike Tyson, MC Hammer, Willie Nelson.... 4) Be sure to live life a bit.....1 million bucks isnt gonna make you happy....at least not in the long term. P.S. I m not sure a job in IT will be that lucrative in 10 yrs considering the outsourcing going on so dont get tied down in that field. |

Ok, so this seems to be the consensus---there will be a significant element of GAMBOOL involved in completion. Meh.

Re: $1M in 5 Years---Help!
Listen to this one then; you open a company called the Arse Tickler's Faggot Fan Club. You take an advert in the back page of some gay mag, advertising the latest in arse-intruding dildos, sell it a bit with, er... I dunno, "does what no other dildo can do until now", latest and greatest in sexual technology. Guaranteed results or money back, all that bollocks. These dills cost twenty-five each; a snip for all the pleasure they are going to give the recipients. They send a cheque to the company name, nothing offensive, er, Bobbie's Bits or something, for twenty-five. You put these in the bank for two weeks and let them clear. Now this is the clever bit. Then you send back the cheques for twenty-five pounds from the real company name, Arse Tickler's Faggot Fan Club, saying sorry, we couldn't get the supply from America, they have sold out. Now you see how many of the people cash those cheques; not a single soul, because who wants his bank manager to know he tickles arses when he is not paying in cheques!

If you want high risk, high return, put the entire 20K in WPTE - the World Poker Tour stock. They just opened their online website and if it is a success, you could turn the 20K into 1M. Good luck.

Re: $1M in 5 Years---Help!
Serious question: What was the language of the bet? "One million dollars in five years" or "a millionaire within five years"? If it is the latter:
1) Go to a foreign currency exchange. 2) Give them about 75 US cents. 3) Ask for about 1m Turkish Lira (the old ones, not the New Turkish Lira). 4) If that does not work, as they lack Turkish Lira (they are being phased out), give them another $225 or so. 5) Ask for about 1m Zambia Kwacha. Optional: 6) Take trip to either Turkey or Zambia (whicheve is appropriate) using your $20k savings. 7) Have someone take a picture of you with your mounds of cash. Victory! |
