Money Making Ideas: Or How Do I Pimp Myself?

Post by pants » Tue Nov 10, 2009 9:52 am

So anyway I was thinking that I need some money making ideas. Currently the only idea I've had that has the possibility of making money is to conduct a heist and rob a bank. There is several problems with that the main one being its illegal but also its difficult to find people you can trust to pull off that kind of thing.

Now I'm just fishing for ideas about how I can make some moolah. Currently I have zero funds but I should be up about five grand in about 5 months or so, so I need some investment opportunities. Does anybody have some ideas that they are willing to share with me for nothing more than my everlasting thanks?

I know a few street corners in various ports around the world that you could claim as your own offer favours for a small fee. :P

Thanks Obi, I'll definitely look into that. People do tell me I look good in a dress. I think its cause they show off my shapely calves.

On a serious note though I have thought about getting into the adult industry but I don't think I have the moral apathy to do so. There's money to be made there but its not the kind of money that I really want to make.

I'm thinking I'm going to invest in some kind of coffee shop perhaps? Maybe just a stand somewhere there is a lot of foot traffic and sell reasonably priced caffenated beverages to the punters. Personally I don't drink the stuff but I have no objections to selling it to people who do though!

Speaking of working in porn this recently happened to me. I've started work for Disney as a Transmission Controller (used to do the same job for a Japanese channel) and one of the people who started with me a few months ago, an attractive blonde girl was being considered for a job for a gay porn company as a camera person. She went on a film shoot for a day and was telling me about some of the stuff that happened it turned my stomach as it just sounded so seedy and the people doing it were in my eyes were being exploited as they were so desperate for cash. She got the job and said to me before she left if I was able to get you a job there would I be interested, I had to tell her although i'd love to be a cameraman the job there just went against my morales.

I've nothing against porn but when it seems exploitive I do have a problem.


Pants have you thought about getting a bank loan?

I would probably go with the Bank loan as well.

Honestly. Military service if you have college. Make it to 0-3 with little over five years and you're making bank. I'm an E-5 with little over five years and well, it's good money. Not enough to live off of if I had a house but living in a Barracks allows you to save up. Other than that a bank heist sounds interesting, i've got the guns and training to infiltrate but i'd end up getting shot by the guys that're helping me because i'd take it all for myself. :D

While the option for pulling of a heist sounds exciting and full of flair, i am still leaning towards just filling out a bank loan application form.

I'll agree with Ranger here, in that if all else fails and you need money very badly and have nowhere else to turn, look to the military. You need a little college to enlist, but if you have a college degree (Bachelor's Degree is the minimum) you are golden for being an officer. And they get good benefits and pay.

Also, I'm looking at enlisting myself if I don't get a job by my second unemployment extension. Looking at Army right now, because they have the better enlistment rewards of everyone else. I'd go Marines, but I don't think I'm tough enough. Also, my IQ is fairly high, so I don't think I qualify anyway. :P

With regards to a bank loan due to certain historical financial transactions me and banks have agreed to disagree and I think I can safely say that I have more chance of winning the lottery than getting a loan.

With that said I've talked about the military but I'm to damn lazy to do anything about it. I have got an application in to join the part time army though so maybe something will happen there.

The criminal path is not for me. I live by the simple motto of 'Can I Tell My Mom About This?' if I don't think I can then I'm not going to do it.

I'm thinking that I've got a pretty good imagination so I might use it to write some kind of script. Possibly a heist movie?

Hey man. Go in as an Army Infantry Officer. Most esteemed Officer out there. They go Ranger School and Airborne School and all that good stuff. But in the long run the Air Force is better. Treats ya a whole lot better and your pay increases more with each rank than the Army. Problem is, it takes six years to make O-3 or E-5. Lmao.

Forget all that running around, digging and sleeping in holes. NAVY is the way to go. Big guns, travel the world, a bunk to sleep in, and the ladies just love the flared dress whites. :)
Sign up with the Royal Australian Navy and you will even get citizenship out of it. Let me know, i have a mate working in recruiting. :)

I'd only join the Navy if I was allowed to dress like a pirate. I was seriously considering trying to buy some kind of boat and becoming a Privateer of some kind. Head out towards Somalia and do the whole swashbuckling thing while fighting off Somalian pirates and then making sweet, sweet love to rescued damsels.

That would be awesome!
