Hi guys !!! I have an absolutely crazy idea. What it is? It's very simple. If one million people give me at least one dollar each I'll be a millionaire. So, I want to try. I'm planning to be here exactly one year - until next Christmas Holidays. Let's see how much many I'll gather during this time. Each week I will report you how much people paid until now. So come on, guys !!! Don't be greedy. It's only 1$ !!! You won't feel any difference !!! Pay it. And tell your friends to. Let's count how many people will agree to make me a little richer. ;-)) And one more thing. It's only an experiment. If I will succeed it means that every one of you can as well. If anyone of you will decide to make such an experiment in the future I will return his money and pay him 10 times more. OK !!! Let's try !!! Good Luck to all of us !!!
24 hours report:
Well !!! More then one hundred hits. Fairly speaking I didn't expect so many visitors ;-)) But without results for while. Come on guys !!! Only one dollar. It is no necessary to bid. Simple paypal payment. Who will be first? Thank you !!! ;-))
72 hours report:
No results. Several angry letters in my mail. By the way: I'm a girl. You should be more polite with lady, guys.;-)) If you don't love my idea don't pay. I do it for fun !!! ;-)) And I don't want to make fool from anybody. Take it easy. Take ti funny. ;-))

Pretty clever idea, i thought? i used to think about this at school. In that, if everyone in the world gave me 5cents, yes just 5 cents then i would be soooo fucking rich
I think she need's just one intial donation and it may snowball from there? All about inertia
hehe, good luck though.
