OK. Here is my try. I just send out that  $ 5 to five different people
around the world.
You will ask: why did I do it? Here is what I thought:
It did not work before because together with those $ 5 people had to invest
another $100 to $200 for mailing expenses (envelops, stamps) in order to
reach another 200 people just to tell about this opportunity and that was
expensive and not reliable, because most of the people don't even opened
junk mail.

In this case its very different. All you gonna spend is only $5 plus cost
of 5 stamps.
And thousand of people on Internet can see your letter every day. Just
think about it.

Also that's might not work if no ONE will respond. But its wrong, I am
responding already, another people did to, so it is WORKING!!! Even if
return of the amount will be not such great like those folks telling us,
even if that going to be only $2000 or $1000 or even $500.., just for $5
investment? And think if that's true and you gonna get $50,000 in four to
six weeks?!!!   

Well I don't know about you folks, but I am doing it, so other people doing
it to,
in order to help themselves and others. Below I am including message from
somebody else, who know that this works. And also names of people two whom
you can send your $$. 

Just play fair, don't take away hope from people who already put their
money into this. Cheating wont help it will just break everything, because
people wont play again and even worst they will SAY that they try and
that's did not work. Think about that.

Take five minutes to read this and it WILL change your life.
 
 I just read an article in an internet newsgroup describing how
 to make $50,000.00 in only one month from a $5.00 investment.
 
 Of course I thought this was rediculous ,or some type of pyramid.
 I talked it over with my family, an attorney, and my friends, and
 they all agreed it was some sort of scam.I hate scams because
 usually someone gets burned, and I didn't want it to be me!
 I blew it off for a few weeks then saw another one in a
 newsgroup I go to alot and thought, "Maybe this is legitimate!".
 Besides, whats $5.00 , I spend more than that on my lunch break.
 
 Well, two weeks later,I began recieving money in the mail!
 I couldn't believe it! Not just a little , I mean big bucks!
 At first only a few hundred dollars, then a week later, a
 couple of thousand , then BOOM . By the end of the fourth
 week , I had recieved nearly $47,000.00. It came from all
 over the world.And every bit of it perfectly legal and on the
 up and up. I've been able to pay off all my bills and still had
 enough left over for a nice vacation for me and my family.
 
 Not only does it work for me, it works for other folks as well.
 Markus Valppu says he made $57,883 in four weeks.  Dave Manning claims
he
made $53,664 in the same amount of time.  Dan Shepstone says it was only
$17,000 for him.  Do I know these folks?  No, but when I read how they
say they did it, it made sense to me.  Enough sense that I'm taking a
similar chance with $5 of my own money.  Not a big chance, I admit--but
one with incredible potential, because $5 is all anyone ever invests in
this system.  Period.  That's all Markus, Dave, or Dan invested, yet
their $5 netted them tens of thousands of dollars each, in a safe,
legal,
completely legitimate way.  




Here's how it works in 3 easy steps:
 





STEP 1.
 
Invest your $5 by writing your name and address on five seperate pieces
of paper along with the words, "PLEASE ADD ME TO YOUR MAILING LIST." 
(In this way, you're not just sending a dollar to someone;  you're paying
for a legitimate service.)  Fold a $1 bill, money order, or bank note
inside
each paper, and mail them by standard U. S. Mail to the following five
addresses:

 

 
 1.   Bill Brown
       148 South Downlen #796
       Beaumont, Tx. 77707
 
 2.   Olivier  Arcadipane
        237 rue Francois Andre
        7390 Quaregnon, Belgium
 
 3.    Marco Monet
        409 N.E. 107 St.
        Miami, Florida, USA 33161

  4.    Len Comaratta
        1300 University City Blvd.
        Apt. 2508
        Blacksburg, VA  24060
	
    5.  George Lavrov
         #306-1160 Broughton Street, 
          Vancouver, British Columbia
          V6G 2B2, Canada

 
 
STEP 2.

    Now remove the top name from the list, and move the
    other names up.This way, #5 becomes #4 and so on.
    Put your name in as the fifth one on the list.


STEP 3.

    Post the article to at least 200 newsgroups. There are at
    least 17000 newsgroups at any given moment in time.
    Try posting to as many newsgroups as you can.Remember
    the more groups you post to, the more people will see your
    article and send you cash!


STEP 4.

     You are now in business for yourself, and should start seeing
     returns within 7 to 14 days! Remember, the internet is new
     and huge. There is no way you can lose.
 
    Now here is how and why this system works:
 
    Out of every block of 200 posts I made, I got back 5 responses.
    Yes, thats right,only 5. You make $5.00 in cash, not checks or
     money orders, but real cash with your name at #5.
 
    Each additional person who sent you $1.00 now also makes 200
    additional postings with your name at #4, 1000 postings.On
    average then, 50 people will send you $1.00 with your name at
    #4,....$50.00 in your pocket!
 
    Now these 50 new people will make 200 postings each with your
    name at #3 or 10,000 postings. Average return, 500 people= $500.
    They make 200 postings each with your name at #2= 100,000
    postings=5000 returns at $1.00 each=$5,000.00 in cash!
 
    Finally, 5,000 people make 200 postings each with your name at
    #1 and you get a return of $50,000 before your name drops off
    the list.And that's only if everyone down the line makes only 200
    postings each! Your total income for this one cycle is $55,000.
 
    From time to time when you see your name is no longer on the list,
    you take the latest posting you can find and start all over again.

    So thats it. Pretty simple sounding stuff, huh? But believe me, it
    works. There are millions of people surfing the net every day, all
    day, all over the world. And 100,000 new people get on the net
    every day. You know that, you've seen the stories in the paper.
    So, my friend, read and follow the simple instructions and play
    fair. Thats the key, and thats all there is to it.Print this out
    right now so you can refer back to this article easily.Try to keep
    an eye on all the postings you made to make sure everyone is
    playing fairly. You know where your name should be.
 
    REMEMBER....HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY.YOU DON'T
    NEED TO CHEAT THE BASIC IDEA TO MAKE THE MONEY!
    GOOD LUCK TO ALL,AND PLEASE PLAY FAIR AND YOU WILL
    WIN AND MAKE SOME REAL INSTANT FREE CASH!
