For those of you who are considering this as an option to easy money, I
hope you all realize that it is mathematically IMPOSSIBLE. The first guy
who came up with this will probably make a ton (because there's a lot of
stupid people in the world) but after him the money will begin to drop off
until there's some poor saps out there who lose $1-5 on this deal. I mean,
just think about this for a second. There are a finite number of people
who will actually do this. If all of these people give five dollars how
can all of them turn a profit? There will be very few people who make a
lot of money, a few more will make some money, some might actually break
even, but many more people will have fueled their income without recieving
any sort of service in return. Personally, I thought that if you give
someone else your hard earned cash, you should recieve some sort of
service in return. Also, for the few who will make money, don't you think
this kind of thing wreaks of welfare, you are in a sence getting money for
sitting on your ass. I would rather rot in hell then conn people out of a
few meaningless pieces of paper. Excuse me, but there are more important
things in life than getting rich quick.

Sincerely,
Tom Reasoner
