My idea is to have a rich dad, and to produce a few 100 k worth of content, to open a pay site and spend another few 100 k from dad to push it.

Then I would start posting on a popular board with a nick such as "silent" because that sounds like "I know it all but I am not telling".

I would plan to be "silent" all the time to live up to my nick and for that "who is that mysterious guy" effect.

But after a while I would feel that ever rising urge to let it be known what a successfull business man I am. I would never mention how I was able to spend so much to get my biz rolling in the first place though. That is the only thing I am going to be truly silent about

Every few month I would start a thread like this: "I am considering to throw away 500k worth of licensed content. Seriously. Or should I just give it to someone? What do you think?". Or "Do you have an idea and just need a few 10k? Let's hear it."

I will never actually tell that I AM going to give anyone anything, but sure as fuck I will always make it SOUND as if...

All the while I would sit back and watch the less fortunate webmasters (those without rich dad/heritage... whatever) trying to get a piece of the cake and actually believing that I'd ever give them anything.

This would make feel all warm and fuzzy inside - just like all daddy boys like to be a bit gruesome now and then because they never sensed the bitter parts of life.

That is basically my idea. Since the dad part didn't work I am waiting for a heritage or something now...


Sound good? Thought so
