I wonder how many idiots will actually pay $400US a month to be apart of this lunacy. :rolleyes:

f2B.!

Hi f2b,

Another get rich quick gimmick hits the net looking for people with money but no brains...and unfortunately there's lots of them...

these were two other's ...

http://www.milliondollarhomepage.com/
The Million Dollar Homepage - Own a piece of internet history!

http://www.unemployedloser.com/
Unemployed Loser

anybody want a pet rock? :D

Eg ;)

Howdy.

The million dollar homepage was a great idea, very unique, i was suprised that others had not thought of doing something like that years ago at the tip of the get rich schemes.
I've noticed many other site's trying to do the same, but thus it looks like there not having much success.

And the unemployedbum one, well it's so so lame, but i got a big laugh out of reading that site.

It's amazing how many people will happily hand over there money thinking it's a worthy cause, meanwhile the maker of the site is sitting back and enjoying the fruits of there 10 minute of work setting up such a lame site. :)

this is starting to give me ideas. Set up a even lamer site and watch the suckers role in and hand me there money..

f2B

hmm... now that I think of it... a million dollar page 2 might work. but instead of one million pixels make it 2. And charge 2 bucks each...

Hmmm hey front wanna make 4 million. I will split it down the middle with ya.

There no shortage of people willing to depart with their cash...there was a guy on ebay who bought a brussel sprout for something like $5000...probably just to get his 15 minutes of fame...

the pet rock, the sea monkeys, x-ray glasses, the infamous ant farm...just look at the people that fall for these lame phishing scams...

you could probably get rich selling pee over the net claiming it was some celebrities.

Eg ;)

That's already been done, in the early days of the internet. cannot remember who's pee it was meant to be, but i do wonder if the buyer got some DNA testing done to confirm the goods were legit.

f2B

hahaha

gmail blows this place out of the water and is free
i have 3 accounts amounting to 9 gigs of online space... and a comp with a utility that connects to them

im hoping this is all just a joke


[side note]
this makes me think of a joke i heard from a comedian

"i want to find a girl who loves me for my money but doesn't know math"
[/side note]

Hi f2b,

Already been done, eh?....darn ! :D

Anybody can make sh@tloads of money on the net if they're willing to cater to the worst instincts in people, or manipulate their weaknesses.

Eg ;)

It's a good idea but the domain is cheesy. The only
address worth that kind of money is [email protected]
:cool:

A Bently Pfft. There is a scene in the original Dawn of the Dead where the guy says "The only man who could miss with this gun is the sucker with the bread to buy it".... Bently is pretty much the same to me.

If you want a REAL car that shows you have cash, you get a McLaren F1. There are less than 100 in the World, they stopped being made in 1998 and they are the fastest street legal car in the World doing a max of 391. They go 0-100 in 4 seconds, and back when you could buy one from a shop, it was over a million dollars for a STOCK car. If you wanted something extra, you paid extra.

And now that they are out, anyone who has one can charge whatever they want for one. Not like you can buy it at a car dealer anymore.

Now THAT whips the ass of every car. It uses the BMW V12 engine.

Please don't confuse the Mercedes Mclaren for a McLaren F1, they are no where near the same. The Mercedes Mclaren is a little over half a million dollars, where the car I'm talking about you MIGHT be able to nab for around 4 Million.

Eat it Bently. You couldn't GIVE me one.... Well you could, but I'd sell it, I wouldn't drive one, not with BMWs, Audis, and McLarens in the World.

If this is inappropriate, please delete it.

Send 100,000 invoices to different companies with the charge of $900.00 stating this is an invoice for placing their company name on a web site for advertising. If you get 1% of the suckers to pay, place their company name on a web page for viewing and collect $900,000.00

This sort of thing happens allready, espescially with the big corporations, their payables will briefly glance at the invoice and if it was rubber stamped by say the manager of stupid parts then the cheque is cut and away it goes...unbelievable the amount of losses this incurs in the buisness world. :rolleyes:

I was looking through the links on the millionare page... There still doing this, here's a current one that there working on filling...

Sorry gore, you're wrong. The fastest street legal production car is in fact the Bugatti Veyron. It goes 253mph, which is approx 407 km/h - now THAT's fast ;) And the McLaren F1 has a 0-60 of 3.1 secs IIRC - although there are faster ones out there. Also, the last time a McLaren F1 was auctioned in London, I think it went for around £1.2 million pounds - so it's definitely expensive, but not the best. In other words, if you want to show you've got the cash, buy a Bugatti Veyron :D

I have video of the car I talked about, it went 391, and did 0-100 in 4 seconds, and this was a few years ago. I've got a **** load of videos of this car.

And a WHAT? That car sounds Italian...

I've got the same video! ;) I thought it was top speed 391 and 0-60 in 3.1 secs, but it's been a while since I last saw it..

I'm not sure where the Veyron's from actually.. I know it was named after a driver who won the 24-hour LeMans race, and that Bugatti is owned by Volkswagen, but don't have a clue where Bugatti originated.. Sounds Italian :D

VolksWagon owns it??? Wow, you must love a car designed and payed for by Hitler to be for the people ;) (Hitler funded them and Porsche) :)
