the only way you could make that much money is by doing something illegal, become a celebrity, a tycoon or Bill Gates wife
other than that you'll be like the rest of us reaching for the ladder.

Besides so-called on-line jobs, many of which are pure scams, here's an off-line opportunity that really works: If you are an accomplished typist - word processor and have recently visited your local city college or university librarian, you can apply as a "certified" graduate typist, earning between $1.50 to $2.00 per page for a master or doctoral thesis. The librarian will provide you with a sample of the typing template (i.e., margin settings, font selection, page set up, etc.) in order to complete these projects using Microsoft Word. An average weekend income is about $300-$400 for two days work. Good luck!
