Worth the risk? I need money.

Do you think I should send $5.00 to give it a shot? I need to make some money without a lot of effort. Here's the ad I'm asking about:

Then after you send your $5.00 you will most likely receive some coupons or something....most likely not cash. Or after you contribute to this company they will dissapear. People aren't just going to send you money for no reason. Where did you see this add?

If you do try it and it works out...heck let us know

Here's how those send $5.00 get rich schemes generally work. You send them $5.00, they send you a pamphlet explaining how to advertise the same thing and now you spam for people to send you the $5.00 so you can send them the same pamphlet. The only thing it creates is more spam and waste. Feel free to give it a go, it is only $5.00, but I'm sure there's a better use for your money.

Money is a problem

So many folks are looking for the free ride. The $5.00 in the mail is not a very good solution. Here are some great solutions to increasing your income with no sign up or cost or anything but good information for you. Just read whatever pages are useful to you and decide if the solutions are practical.
There are some fun ways to find money and to earn money. I found $40.00 the other day.. HA HA That was great!
Here's the scoop.
As silly as it seems you can start hunting around and find spare change and money in the house and car.

While your at home check in or under every cushion on all of the stuffed and upholstered chairs or sofas in the house.

I once had almost $15.00 on the floor of my car and under the seats.

I used to have a car with an ashtray ( I don't use it - I don't smoke), that had bills and change stuffed into it. They accumulated from me stashing the change after I paid when I went through a fast food drive through window.
I have found money in clothes pockets from last season and my friend found $40.00 in an old pocketbook. It is a last minute way to rustle up some cash.
I found a small piggy bank from many years ago in a box of mementos that had collectible coins in it.

I used to keep a large mouthed wine bottle on the bookcase to dump spare change in at the end of each day. You might have the equivalent sort of thing.

So make a game of it for yourself and see what you can come up with.

(wow, old thread!)

Tell you what. If anyone is still wondering if the $5-in-the-mail thing is a good idea, here's what you do. Send me the $5 and I'll send you my guaranteed solution to make money.

(hint: it rhymes with "get a job." wait... I guess that is the solution.)

As I was going down the stair, I met a man who wasn't there.
He wasn't there again today; I wish I wish he'd go away.

Ahh, the virtual equivalent of shaking a tin can at passing strangers while muttering incoherently and taking pulls from a bottle of Stoli.

No way is that worth the risk, you are getting scammed. Why don't you focus on saving money instead of making it and do something like switching your wireless provider. I just switched to Tracfone wireless and i have saved alot of money. Its almost like i got a pay increase at work.
