I tried it, it’s quite good think like doing you own matrix.

When you’re reading this article you can change your life!
It changed my life…
I found this in one of forums and decided to try it. Joining many forums, I found this article in which saying that can make thousands of dollars in a few weeks putting in just 6$. It can’t be real I thought it’s the way to deceive stupid people but decided to read and look what shit they are prefering me…

Next they are saying that you need to send 1$ for each account in the list below. Then remove first e-gold account number from the list, write your account number in the last line and put this article in minimum 200 forums and advertisements.
No frauds.. I thought that I don’t loose anything except my 6$ and decided to try.

And guess what???
Within 7 days in my e-gold account started to earth up money. I was very surprised!!!
But I thought that in this way and ends. But not ended. In first week I made 25$ in the later part of the other week in my account was more than 1000$... in the later part of the fourth week 10000$..!!!

And this account sum further grows fast.
And it was just 6$...
I had not envious finance situation when I read this article. I didn’t believe that it works until I started to get money from all over the world. Now I can allow myself to buy what I need, this I call finance independence…

I want to share with you how it works and the most important WHY…
I promise for you that if you follow the instruction and don’t have hopes to cheat, you will start to get much more money than you believe and without much efforts.
Suggestion: Read this a few times!!! Save in your computer, follow the instruction and money don’t force you to wait. Agree it’s simple!!!
It’s absolutely legal, it’s just bank commission operation and your investment is just 6$ and few hours in internet…
Important: it’s not deception and absolutely legal, you don’t risk of anything and don’t lose but it works!!!
Turn attention: exactly follow the instruction and 50000$ and more will be yours in 20 – 60 days. All this successfully works because of the members honesty.

Are three simple STEPS:
• You need to register and open your e-gold account in internet bank with address:
https://www.e-gold.com/newacct/ , click I AGREE and fill in the registration form, now save your account NAME , PASSWORD and of course your account NUMBER.
• When you come in bank commission form with address :
https://www.e-gold.com/acct/login.html, on the top click SPEND and in PAY window bring in the last account number of the list, in AMOUNT window 1, (choose unit) window US’ dollars, in MEMO window write “ Please bring in my account number in the list. This operation reply with each member from the list below. When you done this you did a service and the most important that it’s legal. You please rightful service for which you pay.
Transfer 6$ in 1$ for next e-gold accounts:
1. 1206793
2. 1731474
3. 2195291
4. 2279817
5. 2032051
6. 1987493

Now strike off Number 1 account from the list, rest accounts transfer one line up and in nr 6 line write your e-gold account number.
• Do any changes in the text just save the basic idea. Spread this article in minimum 200 forums and News groups, in advertisements or in personal emails, remember that more information you will do about this article more bigger income you get it depends on you. This business successfully is and prosper because of the members honesty and seriousness. And when you follow the first line, you’re going to gave lots of $ just like the list creator!
It costs just 6$ and not hard work!!! Do it write now, don’t put for tomorrow!!!
Time is money!!!

Now I tell you why you in any way you don’t lose anything and just win. Let us suppose from 200 articles I will get 5 answers (poor result), it means I will get 5$ being in sixth position of the list. Now these 5 people again do 5 people, again like minimum 200 placed with your account number in position 5, and just 5 people answers for first 5 people- it’s 25$. Next these 25people do 200 article placing with your number in 4 position and answers 5 people- it’s 125$. Now these 125people placed and gets 5answers do for you 625$ (you in third position)
Next more interesting: these 625people do 200 placing with your account in position 2 again answers 5 people – it’s 3125$. And those 3125 people do 200 placing and make 15625$. Isn’t it impressive ? And this just for first 6$.
When you are not in the list again sent 6$ for each account from future list and place your account number in position Nr.6.

Can you imagine how much people are connecting to the internet and reading this article, like you now are reading!!!

So do you spend 6$ to check if this works???

A few words for pessimists. If my business don’t work and no one don’t send me a penny?
And what!!! Each day in internet shows up from 20000 to 50000 new members.
According to specialists prognosis just in Russian in these 2005years members number grows from 9mln. until 21mln.!!! How much chances that they would like to try themselves in some kind of modern???
And for the end, it’s really great axiom- to get need to give, and that get more need to give much more.
Make sure this yourselves…
Luck for everyone!!!
How to spread out information in internet?
1.First open finding servers ( (www.) Google.com, Aport.ru , Yahoo.com , Rambler.ru, Jandex.ru , AlfaVista.com and others..)
2.Write key word advertisement (-s), forum (-s), News Groups and others.
3.Look service thousands of forums and advertisements lobes, where you can put your article.

Stuff you Dislike:
--People who drive slow in the fast lane.
--Two cars that see who can go slowest side by side on a two lane road.
--"Stalkers" who pick a car and tailgate it, even if it's the only other car on the road, and ride their bumper until said car gets out of the way. The "stalker" roars past honking and guesturing. Then proceeds to start over with the another car.
--Middle aged women who drive SUV's. No, I'm not being sexist (see next dislike). I'm a victim. I believe driving a giant hunk of gas-guzzling metal makes these women feel empowered. Which is fine. Until they empower themselves into the side of your car at a merge.
--Sports-car-driving cellphone-wielding power-dressing businessmen. These guys scare me. A lot. It doesn't matter how you drive, you'll get honked, guestured, and yelled at. Be watchful for sudden and unsignaled movement.
--Disgruntled cops. Please, stop with the "intimidation" tactics. Yes, pull me over. Sure, give me a ticket (I can respect a cop who does his job). But please, please, no yelling or threats. When I am more civil than you, it just makes me feel like a martyr. Leave judgement to the judge.
