Top 10 Worst Ideas To Make Money - GoFuckYourself.com

count of monte cristo · 08-06-2009, 10:41 AM

from shoemoney blog, good read

10 ? FireFox Forum (firefoxforum.com) ? I purchased this site on digitalpoint ($800) after getting some inside information that FireFox was going to team up with Google on a per download affiliate program. Well all that happened and I think I made about 50$ the first year. FLOP

9 ? BabyCalc.com ? If you were about to have a baby you could go on this site and punch in some numbers then it would email you as your baby was growing and let you know what was going on? ?like 10 days until you should be able to tell the sex of your baby!? or ?Babys heart beat starts today? ect.. stuff like that.. I paid to have the backend developed and the site was about 95% completed (about a 1500$ investment).
Then a very close friend of the family had a miscarriage about 15 weeks into her pregnancy and told us about how she had signed up for all these baby websites and now they keep emailing her stuff and she breaks down and cries every time?. I just wanted no part of that? FLOP

8 ? Pimp My Blog ? I thought this was going to be teh win. I mean? you want to pimp out your blog right ? I registered pimpmyblog.org but it was burning my ass that someone owned pimpmyblog.com. I hate making a site when I do not own the .com. Sure you can do good without owning the .com but they are always going to mooch off of your hard work?. so I HAD to own it and after about 3 weeks of haggling with this guy I paid $2,000.00 for the domain.
I made a forum with Vbulletin and had big plans to implement wordpress templates and all kinds of cool blogging tools but just never got around to it =p. FLOP

7 ? Omaha-Used-Cars.com ? Now here we go! This is easy. Just make a used car site and charge dealers a .25cent per car listing fee right ? ehhh none interested? FLOP

6 ? SMS Text Dating textdating.com/texting.com ? I was soooooooo sure this one was going to be it! The concept is simple basically you subscribe to this dating website. Make a profile then you could send a message to the person from the website to there mobile phone without having to know there phone number. I had this totally done and nobody every signed up? FLOP

5 ? St. Marry?s Bar & Grill ? Ok this has nothing to do with the internet. After the Hooters closed down in Lincoln I tried to re-open it then when that did not work out I thought about making a restaurant called St. Marrys where it was like a church and the waitresses dressed like catholic school girls and like the nuns would be the managers and spank the waitresses if they were bad?!? Yes I know bad idea and I never really pursued it?. I like in one of the most conservative catholic communities in the country so no way it would fly? and yes i know im going straight to hell.

4 ? 2 Topless Chix In A Ferrari Cross Country
What would get more looks then a brand new ferrari f430 ? what if 2 topless girls were driving it cross country ? what if you could buy advertising on the car ? seemed like a good idea? then it did not.

3 ? Ads Or Not

Simple concept. There is 5 ads on a webpage only one of them is NOT REALLY A AD! Each time you successfully spot the fake ad you get some money built up into your account. ? I had issues finding advertisers who were down for this =P FLOP

2 ? ShoeMoney SEO Contest

I thought it would be fun contest to see if someone could outrank me for shoemoney. Id like to not relive that.

1 ? ShoeMoney Petroleum Company -
(I cant believe im actually telling these in public)

Ok Follow me here -
I want to purchase a Gas Station and Give away Free Gas

The catch is like the gas would come out really slow and also you would be limited as to how much you could get per week. (Like max 50 gallons a week).

How do I make money ? EASY ? I would setup paintball guns around the gas station with webcams that would let people from the internet take shots at the people filling up there cars with gas. You could charge per shot or a xxxx amounts of shots per month for a set fee. PROBLEM ? I talked to a city council member about this and he told me there was a ?no flying ordinance? or something rule within city limits however I could maybe do it in the country?

i would dump hundreds and hundreds of dollars on that gas station

HowlingWulf · 08-06-2009, 06:19 PM

Remote paintball guns set up anywhere would be a big hit. Doesn't have to be a gas station...

CunningStunt · 08-06-2009, 06:32 PM

suesheboy · 08-06-2009, 07:14 PM

I have had far more fails that successes on line.

What I am doing now works don't ask me how, I am just done with adult. I no longer have the time or patience or willingness.

My success now is due to adult and what I learned

JustDaveXxx · 08-06-2009, 07:57 PM

FreeHugeMovies · 08-06-2009, 08:03 PM

Great thread, I won't ever spend $$ on domains. I can always think of another good domain name.

Juicy D. Links · 08-06-2009, 08:05 PM

Idea #1 brought this to mind:

WTF? Why in the world with a domain like that would he put a FORUM on it? He didn't lose that one because of the domain.

IMO this just goes to show a lot of successful people are probably only successful because they simply try a lot of stuff and one of them succeeds.

Fob · 08-06-2009, 08:15 PM

some of those ideas are not bad. Those hooters uniforms are weak anyways. A restaurant with schoolgirl waitresses is where it's at!
