Quickest way to get cash
 

What's the quickest you've ever gotten a large sum of cash? Illegal or not. Could you do it again? Would you?

The most I ever got was from just skimming the inside of unlocked cars in an apartment complex, found a wallet with a couple hundred in it. I wouldn't do it again cause it's unlikely I'd find more money... how many people leaves their wallet in their car, really? Also it's stealing and I'm sober now and less criminal because of it. What about you guys?

Used to do a little poolsharking... but I always gave the money back and it was more of a joke than anything.

I went to an ATM machine, and used a card and a pin number. Like a responsible adult.






Stealing is bad kids.

i made a ton of cash doin people's homework in high school,....i used to sit on the tail gate next to the keg at parties,...i had a money box for cups, and a money box for homework,....worked perfectly

Lame.

Seconded. Somebody did that to my grandmother and she was devestated, lost her ID, social security, everything.

last year i went over to hyde park and started a holiday decoration business. i would show up at 5:00 AM on weekends or 8 AM on the weekdays i ditched school and put up lights, decorations, those huge inflatable snow globes/santa clauses, etc etc. i set up about 50 houses in 2 weeks and made $5000, as did a friend of mine who helped me out.

That's it, I'm changing careers.

Thirded.

Probably just from grant money. I make enough doing my real job.. even though it's quite laborious I've actually grown to like it.

Being a psychopath.

No really, I get a disability check every month because I'm considered too much of a lunatic to be a proper working class citizen.

So, if you want to make some good cash, then strip naked, run outside, scream like a banshee and throw a birdhouse through your grandmother's bedroom window. It worked for me.

Yeah actually in a way I tried that. I can see you throwing a birdhouse through your grandma's window... it all makes sense now.

He tried the same thing on MB but it backfired.

I got a job, went there every day I was suppose to, worked the hours I was given, then got paid. Boring, but I hear a lot of people are doing it.

- Have someone break one of your fingers or have a really bad back or something
- Go to hospital and when they are looking at you, pretend (or actually be) in a lot of pain
- Get prescription for painkillers (hopefully vicodin)
- Sell pills individually to highschoolers for epic $$$

saving lifes :rolleyes: haha.
literally. im a lifeguard.
i dont do this, but a few acquaintance's make a few bob from drug dealing...
theres a lot of money in that business.

Part time reception work, it might not be the fastest way to get cash but it sure is the easiest. If I'm in a real pinch I'll deal out the rest of my pot to my friends, heh.

Oh yeah, and a little prostitution on the side, but business hasn't been the same since Pinky started taking half my cuts.

this BY FAR

and if you really want to watch the cash roll in...

cut out going to the bar 2 nights a week from your schedule and rewrite it as twice a month.
buy actual groceries and learn to cook your own food, avoid pre-packaged meals
don't drive if it takes you less than 10 minutes to walk.
avoid cabs like the h1n1
don't buy into the hype about the h1n1

boring, hell yes, but the 5 grand of clear net profit in my savings account over the last calendar year says wtf-ever and i don't have a really fancy job either.

dealing might turn a quick profit if you don't consider the inital costs involved (either individual or social) and the potential costs / penalties if you're caught. a mundane day to day job doesn't get you tossed into eff you up the butt prison.

Working for a contracting company, you pretty much just work till the job is done and the pay isn't bad at all either.

If your a musician... selling the "less creative" output on the side as Stock Music aint bad for a little extra cash.

Im actually going to do it again right now!!!

I do it every two weeks on Fri.

I take my paycheck to the bank and cash it, only takes about three minutes and I get $1500 bucks...

I point out people's grammar mistakes and charge them for it.


That will be $25.

That would require me caring, which I don't.

Sorry to disappoint.

some people are sitting on a gold mine. a pretty girl should never go hungry

I traded in 10 N64 games that I never play anymore for 3 bucks each. 30 bucks right there. What's great is that most of them came with the system when I bought it at a yard sale for 10 bucks, and some of the others my mom bought for a dollar apiece.

Where the hell did you trade in games for 30 bucks a piece? that's unheard of...


@ wad...where in h-town are you? do i know you?

A numerical error on my part. I got 30 bucks for all ten.

That's more like it...

But the easiest way to get money if you're looking for it quick would probably be to set up a big scam, tell people you can invest their money for a 10% return and then spend it all. Of course, you'll go to jail for life but you'll be able to live like a king for a few days. Or you could steal people's credit cards and buy a bunch of **** online.

If you don't want to go to jail, I go to this place and do work, and every 2 weeks money magically appears in my bank account. It's actually really cool, you should try it. And, if you really need money, you can work at 2 places, and then every couple weeks you'll get money in your bank account twice! Neat huh? I don't really think there are many other good ways to get money than by actually working, unless you actually do win the lottery or get an inheritance or something. Sorry to disappoint :p

the sarcasm in here is killing me, it's so clever and not ridiculously idiotic at all.

You could happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time and make money from lawsuit settlements.
This could involve anything from getting hit by a company owned vehicle that's breaking a traffic law... to slipping and breaking an elbow in the lobby of a company that has no caution cones during a humid or rainy morning.

If a person can sue McDonald's for burning themselves with hot coffee because there were no warnings on the cup that the coffee would be hot, then anything is possible.


Of course, I'm not condoning frivolous lawsuits... But if you're going to resort to shady methods of gaining money quickly, you're better off taking it from those who either deserve it or can afford it.

I've venture a guess that the McDonald's hot coffee lawsuit is the most wildly used, but least factually recited lawsuit.

The facts of the case: The Actual Facts about the Mcdonalds' Coffee Case

In a nutshell: McDonalds was a fault, they were super heating their coffee to ridiculous temperatures without warning people that their coffee was in some cases over 60 degrees hotter than other places. The lady knew the coffee was hot, but when the 180-190 degree coffee spilled on her, giving her third degree burns on 6% of her body, then she sues to recoup medical expenses.

Sarcasm?

I'm pretty sure everyone here is a drug dealer.

hes not old enough for a job, unless in the US, the working age is lower than the UK's :(

how old do you have to be to get a part time job? i've been collecting an above the table paycheck since i was 15. under the table since i was 11.

well here, you cant get a job legally until your 16.
unless it isnt through the books (cash in hand if you like) then people can be hired from 15yrs old but thats illegal, and the laws much stricter now, so most places are through the books. plus if its cash in hand, your likely to be under minimum wage. which wouldnt be worth it!

edit:not everyone boo boo, just the vast majority :laughing:

Wow, I hadn't read that before. Thanks for the info.
Yea I definitely used that case as an example without having enough actual knowledge about it, which was stupid of me... but I think that regardless of the example, we both know the point I was trying to get across.

Anyway, thanks again for the informative mention.
:)

It's become somewhat of a passion of mine to correct people on that lawsuit for some reason. Funny that the opportunity would occur here :)

Totally.

Well we both benefit, do we not?
Cheers to that.

There is so many ways to come up on the mulla.Ive had offers thrown at me which I never took and dont regret.One was to drive cross country and deliver some... uuuh white powdery substance.That was so tempting since it was 15k cash,but I passed,didnt want to risk getting caught then booty ra*ed in prison.

What I have done is buy wrecked cars that run,from an auction,fix em and profit.I bought a saturn for $700,invested about $200 and sold it for 1900.Recycling use to pay good too.I hear they give good money for taking off the tabs off cans and recycling those(has to be about a gallons worth they say)Is this true?
