    Default The "The Stranger Goes Down Under Trip Fund Idea Box" Thread

    Yeah you read it right, I'm still alive and still my good ol' self.

    I have plans to go to Australia if I pass my exams, but I have a money problem, so I need you guys to help me get some wacko Idea's to get money, simply a job won't cut it! I want bankrobbing Idea's and such. Conspiricy theories will also do!!!

    Kukri, you will regret you ever offered beer to any Orgah who would knock on your door, even though I don't drink beer, I will come knocking on your door anyway...

    I won't be on for much due exams and a broken pc, mainly the latter...

    so I need you guys to help me get some wacko Idea's to get money
    I know some

    They might involve bending over or kneeling tho

    Take Balkenende hostage and ask 1 million and a plane to Australia as ransom, it'll solve two problems. Yours and ours.

    Bos might do as well tho, but I think no-one would pay the ransom.

    Get two jobs then. Work your butt of. Weird money making schemings will get you nowhere.

    Admittedly it is close, but Kukri lives near America's westcoast.

    There are a number of people who have hit on a new concept: begging.

    I tried to find one of the earliest e-begging sites, where a girl was accepting donations for breast implants, but it seems to have vanished. I guess she got enough scratch for the operation. Here's another round-up.

    I remember that one, I think it was called augmentlauren.com, the site does seem to have been removed.

    Stranger, if you get a job with a decent wage you might earn enough for a trip to australia in 2 months of fulltime work, possibly less.

    He's 17, most he'll earn an hour is 4 euro's, if he's really lucky.
    Next to that he has school and exams, so say he can work for about 12-15 hours a week. He'd make about 50 euro's a week.

    Get's you nowhere near Australia, he might make it to my hometown, with a bit of luck.

    Well, I know that to fly from Germany(that's close to the Netherlands, where Stranger lives if I'm not mistaken) to Australia/NZ and back costs more than 5000EUR with BA or Lufthansa and I guess most other airlines as well. Visiting Kukri should cost about a fifth or so, if he offers you a bed you can even forget about a hotel.

    Of course you can also acquire a paddle boat and travel to Australia using your muscles and a compass, that should be rather cheap, no need to work for long.
