Ok so here's my stellar plan. As of right now FTR has 8954 users. I'm not really sure how many of those users never get on here, but this is hypothetical. Let's make a system for making someone $8,954 richer every week lol. We figure a way for everyone to send someone (me first obv. ) $1. Then the next week we all send $1 to another person. In order for someone to be picked they will have had to send $1 already (except for the first person obv. ). Then each week someone from the list of ppl who have already sent $1 will be picked randomly to receive their $ for the week. Each time someone gets selected they will then be unable to be selected again (until it all starts over ). Who's with me?

It's just like a perpetual motion machine.
Except with money instead of motion.

LETS DO IT
Actually, this reminds me of something me and a friend did when we were in middle school. We found this big text thing that had this huge idea (related to this) and added our names and addresses to the end of the list. Well, we were suppose to send everyone on the list $1 to add your nam eon the bottom, but of course we didn't... we waited for the money to poor in... and we made $3 each. Talk about some profit!

This is a great plan guys and it will only take about ~175 years to complete! I've already sent in my dollar who else is in?

If you can't be kind, at least have the decency to be vague.

This is like a savings account for those who can't save. $1 per week and in March of 2027 I'll get my $8,900.

You're going to be disappointed if you expect that number putting in $1/week.

I could explain it to you, but it involves hedging, futures, & derivatives. Oh and a very complicated pump & dump scheme run through email accounts of various contitnents. I really don't have the time. . .

It's not what's inside that counts. Have you seen what's inside?
Internal organs. And they're getting uglier by the minute.

Can I be first on the list? Since I'm probably the oldest, I don't think I have the lifespan to wait my turn. My $1 is ready to go.
