    If you had a measly $5,000

    What would you invest in that would guarantee some sort of return in 6 months?
    Go choker style and buy like 500 tgp domains?
    Downpayment on a house?
    Lots and lots of prostitutes?

    What would you do and why?

    I can't think of anything that would GUARANTEE a return. I'd probably fund a paysite with it. Not everyone can start a decent paysite for $5k though.

            I don't think 5k$ is enough to start a good paysite...

                  Not in toronto bud, you need at least another $20k in front of that.

                                    I'd buy myself a better car like a pinto, and then spent the other $4500 on ppc ads for www.datinggold.com

                                            I'd buy 1 pound of pot, but then about 100 cases of twinkies.

                                            give the pot away for free and then sell the twinkies for about $5 per package.

                                                  I like that idea WG.... I've done a lot of CPC work in mainstream. I could definatly give that a shot. But I'd probably take it slow and start with 1g or so and see how the return is on the product I am selling.

                                                            No problem. But also remember that market is pretty saturated right now. Unless you're REALLY good you wont be making your investement back on the clicks. Not unless you own the hosting company and get the branding along with it.

                                                            However there is money to be made there still. I would just personally trust the adult market more just because of the success everyone hears.

                                                            I might put some coin into this... I'll see how it goes. Have to look into the best place to send the clicks as I hear right to the paysite is no good. I might build a hub of sorts.

                                                            hmmmmm this is a fun idea.
