ligally or illigally

illigally : get a gun go and rob a bank and you get a lot of mony [j\k]

ligally : if you have a good way tell me

Buy low and sell high, invest in real estate, work yourself up a 'grub stake' and start a business. Working for others isn't really the way to make a lot of money. Having others work for you would perhaps be a better plan. Be frugal, don't spend all your money on every little knick-knack you want.
Good luck

Are you sure you want instant riches? When a person gets rich suddenly it changes their life, and not necessarily for the better. They are suddenly thrust into a new social standing in which they have no friends, their old friends view them as a source of money, people and charities they either don't know or don't want to know are hitting them up for funds, and then there is the fear over the possibility that someone will want to relieve you of the trappings of your new found wealth.

Often people who win the lottery or hit it big at a casino, find themselves gambling and buying so much that they are right back where they started or worse.

Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't mind having enough money to pay my bills, but there are problems at all economic levels.

Be careful what you wish for, you might get it.

Don't do something you enjoy.

The most important thing...

Don't listen to other people's advice.

On the contrary, marry rich!

Or, do what most people do to get rich. Be born that way. So, if you haven't chosen your parents yet, I'd suggest choosing wealthy ones.

Buy lottery? But chances is low, very low.

I am thinking of opening a tuition center, charge lower rate than market's price, slowly build up my reputation, increase my student number, then employ people to teach for me!

 

[damgo]

^^^ If you're in HS/college, tutoring is a fantastic scam! $20/hour is considered "low" from what I can tell; I know a friend who was making $50/hour. It's just disgusting.

Sell drugs, I hear the're all the rage with teenagers these days.

 

[Jikx]

the ultimate tip is to force yourself to believe you already are rich.

I AM RICH! WEEHEEEE.
















ok so it needs a little practice

I think that having people work for you is the best way to get rich. However, which business to set up?

Ideally one which can grow fast, make you a lot of profit with little initial investment.

Any ideas?

well cheese is the main food in every house here so they don't need to sell it and if so it will be so cheap (about 2 K.G of gold)

Once the businessmen find out about this the moon will likely be doomed...

[BoulderHead]

Oh, I would definitely stay away from planet Earth. Those crazy bassars have never in their history found a reason to not kill each other...

well you are a traveller ...
do you usually visit milkway galacsy or do you live in it ?

 

[BoulderHead]

(what is this topic going to)

I am thinking now that perhaps one way of making lots of money is to find a way to profit from people's desires to kill one another...
...It could become a lucrative business...

well you are a traveller ...
do you usually visit milkway galacsy or do you live in it ?

I am an explorer in the further regions of experience not unlike a Cenobite;

All Cenobites are "explorers" in the sense of pain and extreme sensation of ill feeling i.e pain. However may it be noted, through no choice of their own...by means offered by the ENGINEERS of hell.

Lotteries are nothing more than idiot tax.

Any sort of gambling is statistically weighted to make sure you lose. And lotteries are worst of the lot.

 

[The Grimmus]

yea, you should try to be born into it that seems to work. If all eles fails give me your money and i will help you

Quote from FZ+...

I think it was Steve Winn the former President of Golden Nugget Casino in Atlantic City who once said that he got into the gambling business because his father was a gambler and he could see that the house is the side that wins. So if you want to make a lot of money, own a casino.

Unless you are the one setting the odds... or you have much more money than the person setting them - in which case you can do doubling (or some similar method), and break their bank taking all of their money.

i hear selling eggs (the human kind) is quite a good way to make money, but the best I've ever heard of, and surely what will pay off all my student loans one day...being a hostess in japan, seriously, japanese business men pay huuuge amounts of money for western ladies to just sit there and laugh at their jokes! how brilliant! yes ok there are the occasional japanese mafia bosses who maybe threaten death to just the occasional hostess BUT that's very rare, better odds then in the lottery at any rate. a few months in japan and you're set for life, if you don't die of course...

Why not just become a stripper in your own country?
