Quickest way to earn £50 online?

Postby admin » February 18th, 2011, 5:03 pm

OK guys, just out of interest how would you 'earn' £50 online if you were set a challenge to do it FAST (ie within 2 days)?

The rules:
You can't gamble/bet
You can't just sell an old 2nd hand item on ebay unless it makes £50 profit (over the price you paid for it)
You can't cheat or scam anyone to get it

So, if you HAD to do it, what would you do?

Employees are like mules. Some you stand in front of and coax them along with a carrot. Some you stand behind and kick them in the arse. The key to management is knowing which mules are which!

Visit forums like neowin which constantly have people asking for Logo's to be made for anywhere between $20 - $100

Ive actually made around $70 from there so far lol... after paypal converts it and takes their share it doesnt add up to much over £50 though.

Also sites like http://www.fiverr.com/ give you money for work - $5 at a time, so would take a while

you need to borrow £50 then Stu?


Fastest way is to sell a service to someone on-line, ie web design coding etc. (not the most profitable way, in the long term, as you are limited by the max time you have)

Nah I don't need £50 urgently LOL, just wondering what people would come up with.... Fiverr would take too long... if it was me I'd go to a forum and offer some creative service cheaply. But there's got to be better, lesser-known, ways to make a quick £50? Surely?

Yea its called "Malware" lol

Enter your credit card number here and we will decrypt all your files we have Hijacked


Make a unique website that is a massive hit overnight, like the "milliondollarhomepage" idea


Make an "App" for the apple store, if its a big hit, you could become a millionaire pretty quickly
