Doubling £10.00

petabear

Hello Everyone!

I've been lurking on this board for a good while now trying to come up with a way to earn some money. I'm out of work at the moment but i'm not a person who can just sit at home and do nothing...with jobs being few and far between at the moment (Especially in Spain where I live) I've decided to take matters into my own hands and try and make some money off my own back.

I've read a few threads abour doubling money and how much you can earn if you keep doubling.

So heres the plan (I'd love more people to give it a go, i've even got my mum on board with it!)
Invest £10.00 into something, anything you think you can double your money on whether that be carboot sale ebay crafting...anything the world is your lobster! You have a month then to double your £10.00 to £20.00 then after that you need to double that £20 into £40 and so on... who thinks its a good idea? :T

The idea isn't new and although in theory is excellent, in practice may be difficult especially when you want to find something that you can buy at £1280 and sell at £2560 or thereabouts, which is where you would be in 8 months. However if it did work, you would be a millionaire in about 2 years!

Yup you would need to double up 17 times to make a million - doesn't sound so hard put that way does it? You might want to look at your month for each timescale - I'm sure you could double £10 much quicker then that but when you start getting higher amounts it might take longer. Do you have any ideas yet fot your first one?

1st ones dead simple, lots of supermarkets are selling 4 or 5 packs of chocolate bars such as mars, twix, wispa etc for a £1 (so 20-25p each) resell at work for 50p each which is less than most shops sell them for and you double your money quite easily, unless you start eating away at your investment (lol)

Just remember that as soon as you buy with an intention to resell you are a business.
