Need help getting newsletter subscribers

[Jobsande]

Hey I am just starting a newsletter about creative ways to make money. This is my first time doing something like this. What I'm working on is building a big subscriber list. Does anyone have any good ideas for ways to do this?

I have been messenging people on facebook and ebay, but I am looking for a way to get a large amount of people and where I don't have to message people individually. Here is the message I've been sending:
------------------------------------------------
Hi,
I'm just starting a newsletter about making money creatively. The newsletter will include a funny college story, an article about an entrepreneurial idea, and then a special offer at the end.

As a thankyou for signing up, I will give you 680 free ebooks to download that also includes resale rights!

This is the first time I've tried anything like this -- I'm really excited! To join, send an email to this email address: Jobsande at drboy77.com (This forum won't let me write the email address - normally I would use the @ symbol) Thanks for your support You can unsubscribe anytime you want.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

So how does the message look? Any ideas on ways to reach lots of people?
Thanks for the input. Oh, and feel free to join the list!

I'd have more benefits about subscribing since lots of people are bombarded with ezines and don't have the time to read them all. The offer part may turn people off.
