    Thumbs up Invest $500+ with me and get a 20% return!

    Yes, that's right. Invest $500 or more with me and I guarantee a 20% return on your investment within a month.

    Example:
    Bob sends me $1000 through PayPal. I take this money, invest it somewhere and 1 month later send Bob $1200 through PayPal. All this time, Bob has done nothing. I've done all the work!

    Now, I'm afraid I can't say how I am going to invest your money. I bet right now you're thinking, this is a joke? No. I can't tell you because this is my 'secret' method of making money. If I told you how I did it, you wouldn't bother investing the money with me, you'd probably just do it yourself!

    Why am I doing this? Well, in order to make money using 'my' method, I need money in the first place. I don't have enough spare at the moment to invest personally. So I thought - if I get others to invest, both of us can win! I give some of the profits to the investor, and retain some of the profits for myself.

    How can you be sure its not a scam? Well, you can send me your investment through PayPal. I am a verified business member, so you are protected. Added to this, I would never want to jeopardise the status of my PayPal account, as I use it daily. Without it, I'd be stuck! Also, I own a Registered UK [Ltd] company, which I hope proves I am a serious businessperson. I am not out to scam or steal from anyone.

    A few notes: I recommend investing around $2000 for a good return. You may invest as little as $500, but that would only give $100 profit, so if you want a quick, easy and sizeable profit its best to invest $2000 or more.
    - I will let each person invest a maximum of $5000.

    Interested? PM me.

    ROFL-- are you serious? Apparently you think that the term "Young Entrepreneurs" means "stupid teenagers with too much cash". I doubt your own grandmother would give you money on your aforementioned pretenses. Please, for your sake and ours- crawl back into the hole you crawled out of, and don't ever show yourself here again. Man, I wish I could meet idiots like you in real life- I'd smack you upside the head!

    Surprise, surprise...everyone thinks I'm trying to screw them over. To be honest I didn't expect much - these days no-one trusts anyone. I could probably come on here and say 'give me a $ and I'll make it two or your money back' and everyone would respond like you have.
    I expect I'm more serious about business than most of you. I'm a teenager but already am Director of my own company. Added to this, I own a 50% stake in it. But, because I'm young people think I'm out to steal their money! Man I hate that attitude.
    So, PLEASE, if you're just going to post something bad, STAY AWAY! I am 100% serious about this and respect those who will actually acknowledge that- not just put it down.

    nobody on here is going to give you $500 from a post like that. You may not want to reveal anymore, but you are going to have to tell us a bit more about what you are going to be investing in.

    For real is this a joke? Too much risk not enough return. We don't even know how old you are so how can that even be an issue.

    If your idea of being successful at business is giving everyone who comes up to you with their hand out and promises of a guaranteed return without any explanation of how or why, then you will surely fail.

    Unless of course they have a cape, a rabbit and a magic wand. Then give them whatever they ask for cuz they are MAGIC!!!

    ROFLMAO, this guy just keeps on getting better.
    1. Yes, we all think that you're trying to screw us over. You may not have the thought capacity to realize this, but that's exactly what you're doing.

    2. No One Trusts Anyone Else- Okay, now, lets play this game. How about you give me $500 for a month, and then I will return the $500 at the end of the month. Would you do it? No?? Why not- either you don't trust me, or you don't have the money. If you don't have $500, then how are you the "Director of your own company?".

    3. It doesn't take much to form company. It takes even less for some snot-nosed teenager to state that he has 'his own company'. And a 50% stake? Who holds the other 50%, your parents or your grandparents?

    4. We are not looking for get-rich-quick schemes here on YE. Some of us are, but the majority of us understand that it takes more than clicking a button or waving a magic Hot-Wheels car to make cash. Why "invest" money for a 20% return? Why not take that $500-$5000, and start your own company? Or, pay a consultant such as myself to show you how to take that cash, but an 'asset' or two, and have a constant source of income?

    Here's a tip- if you can't take the heat, then get out of the kitchen. In your case, however, we'd have to change things up a bit. How about "If you can't make money without scamming people, then you don't belong in any business related forum or website."

    Show us the proof, and then we'll talk. Otherwise, keep on a'steppin, bud.

    1) Nobody knew whether or not you were a teenager prior to reading this post. Your proposal was ridiculous, as you promised a very high return on investment while providing no facts, plans, or credentials. To associate the backlash you received from this thread to age discrimination is nothing short of ludicrous. You could be 8 or 80 - no one is going to take you seriously if your proposal is as half-assed as this.

    2) The fact that you are a director of your own company says nothing. What does your company do? What are its financials? At least show us something tangible so we can judge whether or not you're the real deal.

    3) Your 'no-one trust anyone' view of world is generally correct. I would have to guess that most sane people would not trust a person on the Internet they knew nothing about with their hard-earned money on a plan that the proposer refuses to disclose.

    To put it in perspective. If a hooker came up and offered you unprotected sex at a discount rate, and assured you that she did not have any STDs - would you do it? Absurd as the situation may seem, it is not as absurd as this one. At least in my hypothetical, you would be able to personally meet the hooker and make your own judgements from that. Because this is cyberspace, we cannot 'see' or 'meet' you per se. Furthermore, at least we know it's unprotected sex that we're getting into - in your case we don't know jack shit.

    Please, stop giving us young, aspiring business people a bad name. Just admit your mistake and save some face.

    Ok, ok, I get the picture. I expected this response to be honest though.
    But it reply to paul2145r - how many teenagers do you know who have set up a REAL company, with Companies House. ie. Gone through the motions of filling in forms, replying to Inland Revenue regarding tax status, etc. etc. I know absolutely none but I'm sure you can prove me wrong. And BTW my friend owns the other 50% stake. We've done this on our own - I didn't even consult my parents before setting up the company. Oh, and I wouldn't hire you as a consultant if you don't give advice. It seems here you just want to pour scorn over everything I've said. No thanks.
    Added to this - fine, if you want to use your money to start a company go ahead. My post is not stopping this. But what are the chances you'll get your investment back in a month PLUS some profit? Unless you know a really great way to make money, its unlikely. Businesses require MARKETING, PRODUCTS, EQUIPMENT and the rest, which is likely to take most of your $$$, but then, as you're a consultant I'd have thought you may have some grasp of business knowledge.

    So, you ask, why don't I have $500? Because up to now, I've put all revenues from my businesses under my company back into them. Marketing, product development - you know the drill. Admittedly, I don't earn a great deal from them, annual turnover at this moment will probably only be a few thousand, but I only get 1 or 2 hours a day to attend to them. I've finished college for the summer now (exams all over), so am exploring new ways to earn money, and this post was meant to offer others a way to have a small chunk of those earnings. But I should have known I'd get this response. Never positive, in fact not even inquisitive. Just downright rude and 'down-putting'.

    Tell me what you want as 'proof' for my credibility. I'll do my best to provide. Finally, for those who say 20% is a bad return - I could offer a 100% return on this and STILL make profit for myself. But my profit would not be worth my time, so of course I'm not going to do that.

    I know people cannot resist a stab at others, which is why I expect there'll be many a reply to this post, insulting me etc. But do I care? No, because even without your investment I can make this work. Its just it may have been a little faster with some capital to work with.

    Here's my input... its a ridiculous post in trying to gain $500 and you said you can't share your ideas... the fact of the matter is that we investors want to know how our money is going out... and even if someone were to lend you $500... I am sure they'd want you to sign a contract using some of your personal property as collateral so if they don't get their money back, they can get your personal property to cover your acquisiton.

    On the terms of sharing the idea, the thought of a "NDA" contract comes to mind, disclose your ideas to the investors and as a clause in the "NDA" --- let everyone know that the idea cannot be taken or used without permission or legal action will be taken for such an act.
