You need to watch the latter parts of those movies. They explain everything.

make an outrageous bet…as long as you have enough tangible collateral to convince the person that you are serious, you could gamble a shit ton of money

but duh, don’t do it. unless….no, just don’t do it.

Blackmail. It’s only illegal if you get caught.

I know some people who need some “wares” trafficked. I hope, you don’t mind me asking, but how large is your colon?

If you’re trying to save ‘Miracles’, you should have a dance-off fundraiser and raise 200,000 in less than a month.

Got an extra kidney you’re not using?

And don’t most of those guys end up swimming with the fishes at some point?

bodyhead's avatar

AstroChuck makes a good point. You could sell a kidney, a testicle, plasma, blood, etc. All those things will net you a little more money.

Stop it! I haven’t had lunch yet and you’re making me salivate.

Don’t forget semen, if you’re a guy. A quick buck.

Also IIRC they have something like taking eggs from women, and that pays literally about 1000 times as much as the male equivalent, but I also hear it’s very painful, so…

bodyhead's avatar

Average people will usually be turned down for semen. I’ve looked in to it. They only seem to want ivy league college grads. If I was that, I wouldn’t be looking into selling semen in the first place!

Mizuki's avatar

Send me a link, my husband has much wasted semen to sell. We can retire now…..

Why don’t you see 28 days (28 dias) you know, there is no legal way to do it, you can always bet though…

kfingerman's avatar

They act in movies, and then get a check. It takes more than a few days, but the camera is off for most of the time.

madcapper's avatar

stripping, bank robbery, making a big “score”, coach a loveable children’s sports team… all easy, just watch more movies…

You could always whack the guys you own money to, and kill two byrds with one… *whatever you decide to kill um with?

*None of my business, I didn’t see anything!

I Always wondered why no one ever thought of that before?
