O.K. I'm not trying to insult anyone's intelligence. so I'll make it 
quick. I don't think I'll receive $50K in a month in crumpled one dollar 
bills! I do think that if you follow the below mentioned instructions, 
we'll make the $5 + time spent investment back, + maybe a couple hundred 
or even a thousand (all maybe).

	That's cool with me!!! I could use a thousand bucks!!!

If I make more than that, well, I'll be happy, but I'm not going to play 
into the hype!!! If you want to try to get back more money than you 
invest, read on...

Please follow the 3 steps below, and see what happens!  

The procedure is very simple.

STEP 1: Invest your $5.00 by writing your name and address on five
separate pieces of paper along with the words, "HERE'S THE MONEY, DON'T 
SPEND IT ALL IN ONE PLACE!"
	Fold a $1.00 bill, money order, or bank note inside each paper, 
stick 'em, lick 'em and mail them by standard mail to the following five 
addresses:

*********************************************************************************

1.      Eric Toh
	99B Highland Road
	Singapore 549175

2.     	Paul Williams
	9439 San Jose Blvd
	Jacksonville, FL 32257

3.	Derek Schwalenberg
	41 Parker St.
	Newington, CT 06111

4.	Kim Ng 
	1331 S. Wolfe Road, #17
	Sunnyvale, CA 94087

5.	Justin White
	P.O. Box 724624
	Atlanta, GA 31139


*************************************************************************************

STEP 2: Now put your name at #5, and move the rest up, so the former #1 
in no longer on the list. The former #2 is #1, etc...



STEP 3: Post your article to a bunch of newsgroups, minimum 200, who 
knows? FOR ADVANCED STUDENTS: the more messages you post, the better the 
chances are of getting paid!!! ;)

This has no guarantees, but seems like it'll work. 

Worst case: you're out $5, and some time, but you'll know for sure if 
this stuff works!!!

Best case:  MAKE SOME CASH!!! Think what you could buy!!! A new computer 
(I need one!), next Fall's wardrobe, or just one wardrobe and travel the 
world in search of a temparate climate!!! 

WHY THIS SYSTEM SHOULD WORK!

Of every 200 postings made, you may receive an average of 5 replies,
YES -
only 5 replies, each with a $1.00 bill enclosed.  You would make $5.00 
for every 200 postings WITH YOUR NAME AT NUMBER 5.

Each person who sent you $1.00, now also hypothetically makes, only 200
additional postings WITH YOUR NAME AT NUMBER 4, i.e. 1000 postings. On
average therefore, 50 people may send you $1.00 with your name at
number 4, you would make $50.00

Let's say your 50 new agents make 200 postings each WITH YOUR NAME AT 
NUMBER 3 or
10,000 postings - average return 500 at $1.00 each would be $500.00. They 
make 200 postings each WITH YOUR NAME AT NUMBER 2 = 100,000 postings = 
5,000 returns at $1.00 each = $5,000.

Finally, 5,000 people make 200 postings each WITH YOUR NAME AT NUMBER 1
and you get a returns of $50,000 before your name drops off the list.  
AND THAT'S IF EVERYONE DOWN THE LINE ONLY MAKES 200 POSTINGS! Total 
income in one cycle = %55,500. (SO, that's the theory...again, no 
guarantees and even a profit is O.K. by me!!)

To me, the most encouraging thing is the phenomenal growth of new 
internet users. That tells me that this system will regenerate itself. 

Remember, read the instructions carefully and play FAIRLY . . . that's
the only way this will work. 

Try to keep a list of everyone that sends you money and always keep an
eye on the newsgroup postings to make sure everyone is playing fairly. 
You
know where your name should be.

REMEMBER . . . HONESTY MAKES THIS THING WORK. YOU DO NOT NEED TO CHEAT 
THE
BASIC IDEA ( OR YOUR FELLOW MAN ) TO MAKE THE MONEY (WHAT A CONCEPT!)  
GOOD LUCK TO ALL, AND LOTS OF MONEY TOO!!!

P.S. Chain Mail promising financial gain is illegal, this might not 
work...
