The 'I want it NOW!!' debt/savings thread

jenjade

new thread is posted it is called if you had £10 how much could you make!
wanna play

jenjade

here is the first post by me explaining the idea. i am not sure if it will work before x mas as everyones money is so tight. i might re post end jan if there are no takers!

I was chatting with my sister who said her partner was haveing a competition with his mate to see who could make the most money over 6 months with £10. I thought that sounds like fun. Anyone want to join me?

So you have £10 how can you make it into more?

-Gamble and win?
- Buy stuff and sell for more?
- Quidco offers etc
- Lend it to someone and charge interest
- Save it and make interest

Get the idea

one more thing if you buy something for £10 then sell it for profit (take out any fees) if you make £10 profit you will have £20 so you can do something with the £20 to make more money.:j

So anyone got any ideas or want to play?

They do say you need money to make money.

Who can make the most in 6 months?

I am off to put my £10 into a free scratchcard site then withdraw it so i can use the £10 to make free scratchcard money everyday!

That sounds fun Jen , I might play along in a couple of weeks when I finish my job, but I don't have enough time for anything extra at the moment.

jenjade

it has only had one read i think it was bad timing to be honest. I think i will repost in jan gives me more time to think about what i can do!! lol

I actually think it might work, but you should set out te rules ie start and end dates. How are you recording it etc

jenjade

yeah i have posted that it will start on the 1st Jan and run for 6 months.
I guess challangers will have to post what they did with the money and how much they make lose as they go along then a final amount at the end

yukkibear

yeah, well you can count me in, I'll have to think of different ways to get started

jenjade

someone posted that that once you have turned the £10 into £50 matchbetting would really boost it!

Nichelette

I thought that matched betting would probably be the best way to make it grow, but I'm still too scared to try it lol.
