This is an illegal practice and it can get you in trouble with the law.
Committing even one case of marriage fraud is a serious crime, punishable by prison. It hardly seems worth it in the end. After all, freedom is pretty important; it's the very thing that usually motivates foreigners to commit this type of fraud in the fist place: Coming to the Land of the Free. But as they say, freedom is never free, is it?

yeah I know one person who did that. I would not recommend it though. The INS people will give you an intense interview that most happily married couples could not pass. Then even if you pass that they will make surprise interviews at your house. Last the process is at least 3 or 4 years so no way could you do it once a year, I doubt you could do it two times ever because they will ask you about what happened to your last wife.
Sell drugs, become a pimp, rob a bank, all are easier than trying to make money marrying people for visas.

The feds have strict rules.. the green card is conditional unless the marriage lasts 3 years. The interview is extensive, etc.
