Future Sticky So Read Bitches

Gold is the standard for investing, that's why they say "the gold standard". You can hold it in your hand and it will always have value, after the stock market has failed and the oil is gone gold will once again be the basis of the economy. Silver is way too cheap to use as a decent currency because you would have to have a room full of it to hold any real value. (That's why you use silver on your table and keep gold in the bank.)
Ebay is a joke, your giving away 20% right off the top, and that's just like paying tax to the government, paying tax to Ebay, paying tax to paypal, and then paying again to turn that fake ass paypal money into real money in your checking account. (and before you can do any of this you have to pay them for the listing)
There is no such thing as quick cash.

just FYi bro thats not what gold standard means. gold standard is a way of running the economy before ww2 all paper bill printed in the united sates had to be backed by the same amount of gold. so the US had have every single cent in gold that they circulated in paper and at any time these bill could be exchanged for gold. but when ww2 rolled around the GOV started circulating alot off unbacked currency causing inflation and since when your economy is run this way FDR was worryed about people cashing in all the bills for gold so he confiscated gold from americans to cover it. then in the 70's richard nixon took away this system macking it to where us bills were worth nothing and have no backing, which in turn caused mass inflation and a decrease in the strength of the dollar. the same thing is happening today and is why the economy is the way it is.

I think I read that Nixon ended the gold standard because at some point the national money supply became so huge that there wasn't enough gold to cover all the greenbacks in circulation. And the Fed doesn't want anything interfering with it's control over the money supply anyway. Like the laws of supply and demand. That would be...well, un-American.

This sub fourm is in desprate need of my wisdom so as im bored I will grace you with my knowlge.

Lets start with a few basic tips-
-You need to create value e.g turn that seed into buds.
-Add value e.g take useless computer componants and combine them to make a pc.
-Do a service for some one e.g drive a taxi.
-Asses risk vs reward e.g dont sell your house to start a fucking market stall
-Dont be fooled with cliche BS like investing gold or stocks you will fail. however silver is at a all time low.

be cheaper even if its only buy a penny beacuse then you can claim "cheapist price on ebay" this works well.

presentation is key, If you are selling a high priced item it has to look the part and if you are selling a low price item make it look like a bargin e.g dont line items up on your market stall all neat as its been proven that people are attracted to messy stalls as they think bargin.
Just throw all the shit you got on 1 big pile and watch, it will atract people.

Now for some idears
Importing-
This is as old as trade itself and if your not a dumb fuck you will make money doing this.
I will tell you now dont import electronics from china as the quilty is shit and the software is just a joak.
insted try thing like razor blades, cloths, perfume ect (i do this but im sayin what I import)
There is this flat pack scooter thats really popular in africa atm as it costs only 100 USD retail new. If you can find the supplyer who supplyes these you will make a fucking bomb off westen 16 year olds that want there first bike.
vietnam is a good place to import bikes from.

Buissnes waste-
Big money to be made here as some will even pay you to take there shit away.
some thing i will do in the future is collect the blood from slaughter houses and boil it, this cause the bllod to cluster and makes for very good chicken food and as its waste them fools just throw away 100% profit.

Also some resycleing centers in the uk pay for used cooking oil and there is tones of it in every town.

I work in a warehouse as my main job atm and its fairly small but we still brake a fuck load of pallets every day. they are easy to fix and pallet centers pay 2.50 per pallet.

Got any idears? i wanna hear them, other people idears help spark more idears.

I know my spellings shit, fuck you RIU has no spell chek.

I'm confused as to how or why this would be a sticky at all? You offer up to us some international-financial fact ramblings of what the modern day person is dealing with, might I add from one hell of an oddball explanation attached, and expect us all to consider this glob of shit you explained to be worthy of a Sticky on this forum?

Well, from the point of view of a sticky I think your asking for a fucking miracle, but should more think tanks for the middle class be established for such EDUCATED discussion OF COURSE!

With all do respect, I would not nominate you as their leader after you explanation, but consider you at all of these events as the the guy who collects the coats, but that is also purely my opinion on what I read.

The problem with coming up with innovated ideas to make a dollar on the side is that the "idea market" as it stands is saturated with average folks doing the very same thing...that is the first thing you have to overcome in such discussion is how to do just that with whatever the idea is!

For example, with streaming video like youtube, everyone is an independent film-making; some even going the length of doing web series that reoccur once a week! It can be represented nearly as you are "another fish in the water"!

Anybody ever heard of those kittens in a jar? I thought of that when I first read the first couple posts. Basically, people would put a kitten in a jar, so over time it would grow to the shape of any jar. Every animal activist in the world basically was agaisnt it because of the cruelty involved. I believe theres a website teaching how to do that, its called bonsai kitten or kitty. Could you imagine living a life as a cat being not able to move a muscle in a jar your entire life? lol Anyways, Why don't you go stick some animal in a jar and sell it for a bunch of money.

If you want to be legit you have to pay 20% tax anyway (+vat if your doin well).

you're missin the point i was makein with gold, I was talking investing to make money not stockpileing valube shit for when the fucking word ends.

To make money from investing you need to invest when the market is LOW and now gold is at a all time HIGH. See what im saying you buy low sell high not buy high sell high, its pritty fucking basic.
