I want to buy that GW gaming board. But I don't want to use money I make from my job on it, I feel it would be a waste.

What are some ways of making money to buy it? I could sell my blood or my sperm. But where do I go to do that? I live North of Atlanta if anyone can give me the name of a sperm bank. I think blood banks only let you donate.

I'm a decent painter, should I try to paint stuff for money or should I just scratch my crap up as Gak and leave that skill unturned for cash?

I keep thinking "I'll trade in games!" but they only give you store credit at GameStop and stuff.

Maybe I could save a ton of change in a huge barrel. Then when it's full head down to GW dump it on the counter saying "Count this. I will spend every penny of it here today". If it equals game board I'll be walking home with it.

It's 275 dollars, plus tax. So around 292$. That's a pretty good chunk of change to invest in a board. Then I'll need paint and a ton of flock and stuff. There is a painting guide I think PaniC did. But this is thought for after I obtain it.

Also... pic unrelated

You need a product that you can make yourself and somewhere to sell it.

Think of any hobbies you have or are interested in where you can create something that's valuable.

eg. I brew mead, I can sell it at a local farmers market for some easy money. (of course, I usually drink it before that...)

Go ahead and brainstorm a bit...

Start a website of irrelevant pictures and sell advertising space.

It's 275 dollars, plus tax. So around 292$.

You could whore yourself out to 292 people for $1 each.

If your pressed for time 30 people for $10 each.

Go to your local Home depot, and buy a bunch of the 2 x 2 Foam interlocking mats for less than $5. Then send me half of the money you would spend on the board.


Problem solved!

But how do I find people desperate enough to have sex with me for money? Will I find these women/men in bars? Or do I need to go to some kind of office building where the fat single women aren't getting any at home? 10$ is relatively cheap for sex. Cheaper than a meal at Applebees or Longhorns.

How do I start that conversation out even "Hi ma'am, excuse me but I couldn't help overseeing your need to be serviced sexually".

The ad space idea sounds good too.

Maybe I could start a porn site.

Also I could go to bars around town go home with ugly hammered single women and make out with half the contents of their wallet and leave a note that says "Thanks for all the drinks last night, have fun with the hang over". Sound good or do you think the authorities will catch on too soon? I'm pretty attractive for a gamer so it wouldn't be hard to bag me some ugly ones.

I like the overcoasted plastic of the GW board better.

Sell games eh?

If you have any DS games you want to get rid of, PM me a list of them.

If it's more valuable I'll get to mixing a batch up soon.

Probably only more valuable to Andres Serrano.

About the solicitations I assume you could probably find quite a few on a certain imageboard that Im just assuming you visit often. Do it for T3H LULZ!

Those guys are Fed up. I'd probably step into the house and come out with no skin. But I might be able to say the same of myself and I hear they are cracking down on prostitution on Craig's List. Selling my body might be a little out of reach unless I want to drive down to the gay part of Atlanta and put my leggings on.

hmm, well... Retirement homes perhaps? but if prostitution is totally out of reach... Be a drug dealer. Tons of money to be had. By cheap and legal salvia or however you spell it, then proceed to sell to dumb highschool kids for a 600% profit!
To sum it up

Buy legal plant
sell to dumb kids
?????
PROFIT!!!

Buy a very cute animal domesticated for human consumption, like a rabbit or piglet. Name it Rupert.

Take lots of pictures of this very cute animal doing very cute things; if you can throw kids in there who are also cute, bonus.

Start a website called rupertgetseaten.com, and by hook or by crook spam the crap out of 16-22 year old girls on myspace with the link.

Explain that if you do not receive $300 in one week, from random donors, Rupert is going to be slaughtered, gutted, and converted into foodstuff for human consumption. Attach several pictures of fresh [whatever] carcasses to graphically illustrate the conversion from Rupert to Meat. Further your threat by saying you will buy another Rupert every week until your $300 quota is met. Have a Rupert counter on your website, start it at 7 or something, with pictures of past Ruperts getting thrown into the pot. Swear to God that you will stop once you hit $300.

It won't work repeatedly, but thankfully you only need it for a one-shot deal.

Get a job.
Work overtime.
Don't buy other miniatures.... paint the ones you already have.
Sell bottles of 'hope' and 'freedom' (basically empty bottles with air in them but labeled 'hope' and 'freedom') on ebay.

Ignore that salvia post. He's not talking about sage. That's just f***ing evil, man. Sell good honest weed instead.

If you can knock up some interesting character conversions from bitz at hand, and paint them reasonably well, you could probably make them go at $10 each on the 'bay.

Steal it.

I think I will buy a digital camera and do this.

You sir, are a genius.

Another great scam: Find someone giving away kittens or puppies for free. Grab a handful. Go to a Chuck-E-Cheese or similar kid-friendly place. Sell them for $10 each.

Also good idea. I should do this too.

Also I think someone mentioned getting a job and working extra hours. I already have a job and I don't want to pick up any more hours. This is just a thread for get rich quick schemes. Then purchasing the Citadel board with the money I got rich quickly with. I also don't really buy any more minis. I've been converting and painting a ton of Cult marines for the past few months.

Put up a thread on a P.E.T.A. site that you need money or you might have to take your dog to a kill shelter. Take pics of said dog chilling with you. Except money. Thank people. Dog doesn't exist. Use a friends dog.

The Nigerian Letter Scam is still the most statistically effective, even this year.

I need to spin it though... maybe I could be a poor American foreign citizen who has an inheritance waiting for him. All I need is your small donation to get back into the country and I can make you your money back three fold!

Speaking of this. I could steal hospital supplies and sell them. Or un-used needles and sell them to junkies. They are easy to get to.

I could just put on some tattered clothes and sit outside a clothing store begging for money. When I get some go to a different good will.

I have come up with an easy to follow twenty step program to make money!


1. Get a case of beer,
2. Get a bottle of methyl trichloride (cloroform) or make some out of chlorine bleach powder (calcium hypochlorite) and acetone.
3. Drink the beer
4. Place all the bottles in your recycling bin.
5. Lay in wait.
6. Knock out the first hobo you see riffling through your bottles.
7. Take his bag of bottles, and store the hobo for later.
8. Repeat.
9. When you have enough bottles / cans return them for the deposit.
10. Now that you have around $100 and a closet full of hobos, thats a good start!
11. Rent a video camera -$50
12. Change the remaining $50 for 30 dollar bills and one twenty.
13. Create a bank roll with the twenty on the outside and the ones on the inside.
14. roll tape!
15. wake up your stash of hobos and show them the money roll.
16. Have them do something incredibly painful / revolting.
17. Take the money and tape and run.
18. Circulate the tape online.
19. Create a "Charity" for the ethical treatment of hobos.
20. PROFIT!

sorry to burst your bubble, but they give needles away for free at most hospitals.

Seriously, find a moderately attractive girl, take her with you to a GW during a time with low business. Have her talk to whoever is working there. Walk out with the gaming board.

When I was quite a bit younger than I am, I filched two metal rat ogre blisters from a GW I'm not going to mention... Now I mention it, if you'll look over at my avatar...

Oh, I'm sure I had a point. Um... yeah! Rat ogres are much bigger than gaming boards, surely?

WARNING: Theft is illegal outside of video games. That's the game where you actually go to the toilet and see all the bits. My lord, I'm unusually drunk for 1900. Must be the season... I sure wish the Dominos Pizza here would get me something from the bottle shop next door and deliver it with two margheritas, with extra garlic and chilli...

This thread is getting toward article material, keep 'em coming!
