How Do I Make $1k In 24 hours (Legally)

My question is in the title. If you only had 24 hours to make $1,000 then what would you do? Let's say you had up to $100 in seed money. What are your ideas to LEGALLY make the money in an emergency.

If you have a secret you don't want to reveal then feel free to PM me.

I would leave town, And change my name to sam, Sam corn.

And be very cautious of cars following me.

You need $1000 in 24 hours and all you have $100 for seed money? Invest in a pair of shoes and walk the streets and work the corners sweetheart.

Ask several churches.

Winner.


I was going to say get a room at a cheap hotel then craigslist that you gave legal massages....


Maybe if you are good try Texas Holdem.


Or 33 dollar bets on my favorite roulette numbers 11 , 22, 33

Blackjack

Panhandle.
A friend in High School, could make $100 at lunch (1 hour) or more than double (if he skipped a class and stayed out for a second lunch period) asking for people's change at the student store.
Adults have far more money than High school kids.

I'd buy a 100 dollar gift card.

Then sell 100 tickets for 10 dollars a piece to raffle for a chance at winning the gift card.

Legal, easy.

You can't unless you're one of the 1%ers. But in that case you'd probably be making more like $100,000 in a day... $1000 seems to be an easy amount to come by if you need it for an emergency. If you have a real emergency PM me and maybe I'll get it to you.

I think you got your winner right here.

Do you think that would work for a guy too? Not that I'm interested. I think Beezzer had the best idea that I saw. Although that would leave you $100 short. Seriously, it is not a bad idea at all. I am sure someone has done it before. I don't think I could panhandle, unless I was on the brink of starvation or something. That just seems wrong to me, unless you were actually in need. You could maybe, nevermind, you said "legally." Haha. If you hadn't put the stipulation of "legal," I would fill this post up with ideas. Honestly though, there is no way to make "easy" money that fast with any guarantee. There are always the same ideas given for making money, such as cleaning houses, walking dogs, mowing lawns, picking up and selling scrap metal, etc...All of which probably would make you money, but not quickly. Gambling is one way, but there is no guarantee. Someone mentioned poker, which is a bit better than any other game considering you can determine what odds you're getting when you commit large sums of money, opposed to a static-odds game where the advantage is always with the house. Video poker used to offer the best returns for house games, if you pick the correct machines and play a perfect strategy, but I wouldn't advise gambling unless it is a matter of life or death and you've exhausted every other option.

That's an excellent idea. My dad used to buy cheap watches from Ebay for a couple of dollars and then raffle off chances to win them for a buck a piece. He made a small fortune doing that.... Especially around the holidays. People will pretty easily part with a few bucks for a chance to win a door prize or more money.

So OP - ID go with Beez's idea. You can always count on humans to bet on luck!!

A lot of interesting responses. Thanks, guys!

Also, I agree with Beezer as well.

If I was really desperate in need for a 1000 $, I would first lend 25 $ from someone, after that go to the casino and put the 125 $ on red or black. If you`re lucky 3 times you will end up with 1000 $.

1000 in 24 hours?

Hunts point market. I would need some cash to buy a couple pallets of either meat or vegetables. I would also need to rent a truck. Non refrigerated are cheaper so I would avoid meat unless I managed to get a GREAT deal on something I new I could sell quick. Fruit or vegetables would be a better option and negotiating better deals is easier. I could make more than a grand after expenses though. OR only a couple hundred. Depends on what is in season, who needs it and the route I take to sell it.

OR

You could buy a car in a police auction and sell it that day if you plan ahead. If not planned for, wing it and sell it to a baller "in the fast lane" so to speak. Still legal.

a reply to: Metallicus

Sell stuff that may be of some value, rings or other jewelry made of gold or that have precious stones. Sell the TV, car if it was a really desperate situation. Borrow money from family and friends.

a reply to: beezzer

Dang Beezer... I never thought of that!

GREAT Idea!

Actually... I think I'll try that myself! HAHAHA

Middleman. Buy something low and in bulk, and sell piecemeal for an inflated price!

One of my cousins used to buy giant flats of chocolate bars and sell them at school. Cunning at 13.

If you are girl its easy. And if you are really hung and handsome man, then it would work too. I don't know how legal that is though, depends where you live.

Is Weed not semi-legal in many states these days? You could make around a $1000 a day selling that, provide your customers have an applicable medical condition of course.
