i just put a collar on my cats neck, the collar has a bell on it, currently as my cat moves his head the bell will ring, when it does my cat stops and looks around trying to figure out where the fuck that ringing is comeing from; he has been doing this for about 10 minutes now

if you actually think that by giving this guy 50$ you will become a millionare, you are about as smart as my cat

edit: my cat got the collar off, so by my calculations that would make the cat more intelligent

There's a ton of that garbage on the net. Don't waste your time or money. By all means find a way to make money, or travel the known path of education + career, but in the meantime enjoy your life and live according to your means (ie. spend smartly, don't bite off more than you can chew = get yourself in debt) rather than buy into this stuff.

i agree with all the above. he's going to tell you how to put ads on eBay or some other bullshit like that.

however, if he finds enough stupid people that will pay him $50 for this crap, he'll definitely be closer to that house than you will.

i think those are a different kind of risks.

just think about it, if you were rich doing a serious business, would really waste your time by going on eBay and selling your idea for 50 bucks? why would you do that? if you really wanted to share your wealth with the world, you wouldn't charge any money for it (because that wouldn't be an act of charity for one, and you'd already be rich so why charge for a favor). especially not $50.

the "get rich in 30 days" scams have been out there for years now. if any of it were true, it'd be all over the news and every other person would already be a millionaire.
