How to make £400?

[Sam Kennedy]

Any ideas on how to make £400 in a couple of months using the internet?
This has nothing to do with that £400 carbon fibre frame I spotted

I've done internet marketing to death and earned myself a big fat £0.

Why restrict yourself to t'internet?

Go out and get a job. You seem like a capable lad so get your arse in gear and you'll find something. I'll have none of this defeatest talk 'round here!

I've sort of got one but don't start for another month and a bit.

Well that's a month and a bit to do something else....

I once went tip-scratting, found a lump of kidney iron ore, and sold it at a local auction for £200.

2 options....

The old classic sex toy scam (a la Lock Stock & Two Smoking Barrels).

Put an ad in the paper for Sex Toys, get people to make cheques (for a smallish amount £10-£20) payable to something nice and generic like Kennedy Enterprises, cash the cheque and wait for it to clear.

Once the cheque has cleared send every customer a letter apologising for the poor service but you have run out of stock. Send them a cheque back for a full refund but have the cheque from a different company name (example given in LSaTSB's "arse ticklers & f*gg*ts fan club") sit back and wait and see how many people cash the cheques.

Or start up a 'male escort agency', put a few ads in local papers (not your area) asking for male escorts for hetero jobs. Request a form to be filled out and a £20 registration fee. You will NEVER get disgruntled callers asking why they have not made £1,000's as a male escort as no guy likes to be told his picture has not been chosen by any customers!


oh... 3rd option, get a bar job for a month.

Go wash some cars, worked for my kids, they're still living it up on the summers profits (they say but my wallet is always empty).

Buy some job lots off the internet, catalogue returns and flog 'em on e-bay.

Thinking back to when I was in my late teens in the 1980s - this is intended as listing some potential sources of cash rather than a nostalgic wallow in Thatcher's Britain

Doorman at a pub
Brickie's labourer
Factory worker x loads (factories always good for 'stuff that needs doing')
Painter (splash a bit of emulsion about type rather than the Picasso type )
Agricultural work x loads (long hours, crap hourly rate but the long hours x crap pay certainly lead to lots of cash at the end of it - and because you are so knackered and work such long hours you have no opportunity to spend it!)

Buy a load of low cost head torches or other good value items from Poundland or similar knock them out on Fleabay for £1.99 and charge a pound over the postage costs for your time sorting things out. I've seen people doing it with Poundland, Decathlon and Primark stuff. If people don't live near said shops the thing seem reasonably priced and are happy to pay.

Go down to the local temp agency. The last temp job I had paid just over £6 an hour.
40 hours a week at £6 an hour for 6 weeks = profits!!!!!

My laptop was £480 refurbished... but for the specs it has that was a really decent bargain.
No.
The laptop stays.
