Captain Scarlet Posted June 3, 2008 Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 Making eBook guides and selling them. I do magic as a hobby and some websites sell downloadable ebooks, which contain magic tricks which an independant artist has made, sells the ebook to the company and then they sell them. Same also goes for DVD's and downloadable videos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
531joshua Posted June 3, 2008 Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 (edited) You could do delivery for your local takeaway? I know that's kind of a job but it's pretty laid back, speaking of which, does anyone have any idea on the laws of becoming a motorcycle delivery person (as in for a pizza shop e.t.c)? I've had a brief look on the net, only thing I really found was that I need business type insurance, is there anything else I'd need? (note: Unless it's classed as a 'courier' service, I'm pretty sure I don't need courier insurance, could be wrong though?)

531joshua Posted June 3, 2008 Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 Just been thinking, although you'd have to be old enough to do it and what not, the porn industry seems very profitable. If you're doing everything legal you should be fine, 'cos you don't need your own models, you can just use referral links or some sort of advertising (such as video streaming sites - they have high set-up costs, but once every thing's in place you can just pretty much sit back and watch advertising costs come in). As I've said, you're too young at the moment but I've always seen the porn industry as being a highly profitable place, and very open to expansion, despite the high levels of competition.

It's amazingly oversaturated? I highly doubt you'd be able to compete, especially seeing as there are already a myriad of sites with just referal links on them (Not that i'd know ) and a video site would have huge bandwith costs. Unless you can find a new niche like dog on cuddly toy or something you're unlikely to make any money, and waste a shed load of time in which you could be washing dishes at the local pub for £5 an hour...

531joshua Posted June 3, 2008 Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 Hmmm, maybe I'm wrong then. I just guessed there would have been a fair bit of money in it, if you had the financial backing in the start. Very complex though I suppose, what with all the laws etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Extreme_biker0 Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 isnt that illegal? or theres some law on it im sure?..... It's perfectly legal as long as you don't get caught. Customs let you back into the country with your duty free smokes on the grounds that you're going to smoke them all yourself. To sell them on would mean you have defrauded HMRC and can face fines/prison. But everyone does it! Why not set up a home page and sell the pixels on it for $1 a time.

Caleb Posted June 5, 2008 Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 heres a little idea i had last night With the new smoking in public ban theres been a lot of companies jumping on the band wagon and making money, outdoor cigarette ashtrays, shelter, heaters , solar lights etc etc. But what ive noticed in clubs is people leave there drinks on a designated table as they cant take them out side when they want to smoke, then people like myself go in mine sweeping and get as many drinks without taking a beating as possible . my idea would be like a miniature locker system that would fit round the glass, charge like 30p or something, surely would get used 1000+ times a night in a big club. Would be like a swipe card system, card is locked in, pay 30p card is yours close hatch, hatch locks, put card back in get drink-card is once again locked. Flaws: £300 a night is shit all to a big club peddlers may stop going to the club, as they cant spike young girls probably issues with cards going missing pros: none?

bikedude789 Posted June 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 Yeah, or a device to stop your drinks getting spiked in the first place like a cap or something ontop. An ironing machine hasn't been invented yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caleb Posted June 5, 2008 Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 A clothes press is probably as close as your going to get. If you had a cap over your glass it would like a babies cup haha. You can already get squidgy things for bottles which allow a straw to pass through but nothing else which is pretty cool for girls as they all drink alcopops, and not many lads get spiked anyway . . .

531joshua Posted June 6, 2008 Report Share Posted June 6, 2008 What about buying tickets for things like music concerts and when they're sold out sell them on eBay for a bit more so as to make a profit. I would think there are laws on this sort of thing but I have seen it being done before and a few people I know have done it in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haz Posted June 6, 2008 Report Share Posted June 6, 2008 Import whatever insane craze Japan has next. Look what it did for the guy who imported Micro Scooters. He was 17 when he became a millionaire. Finding that something is the hard part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
