How can I turn $10k into $20k? Or maybe $30k?

I have around $10k to blow. I've traded securities which has been fun but stressful and I've made my money so I don't want to mess with it anymore. I'm looking into cryptocurrencies and got some interesting input on my last post, some nice money to be made potentially.

Anyways, how can I turn this into larger sums? I wouldn't consider an IRA or anything like that since it's boring. I could drop dead and it wouldn't matter how much I saved for retirement. I could flip cars since I have access to an auction which sells cars CHEAP as fuck. I could get a used BMW or Mercedes for $3k with 150k miles and sell it for $10k in the inner city and give them a financing option or something like that.

That can work. Would skip the financing crap. Cash only.

I'm talking about liquid. Rich enough to have your own jet. Rich enough not to waste time. Fifty, a hundred million dollars, buddy. A player. Or nothing. See my Blog & AMA

Sell drugs. I'm talking needle in your arm hard shit. Make sure you test it out first though - you don't want dudes coming after you because you sold them garbage.

If anyone has an answer, I'd also be delighted to hear it.

The answer is that greater returns typically come with a commensurate amount of risk.

I played poker with some friends and family. I have a tendency to laugh a lot at anything which I thought doesn't help but they constantly fell for my bluff! I would have shitty hand and keep raising until they folded.

Nice read. Going to look into LendingClub. I just hope the fees won't fuck me over since I will only be loaning a small amount until I get how it works.

Thanks man!

Hey man I have the same goals as you. In my company I have access to classified info regarding drug development. should i trade those company stocks? Is this legal? Thanks.

 

Pump and Dump I'm kind of fortunate, actually. At my job, I actually have access to confidential info regarding dozens of small biotech companies. Really cool: We are in the business of advising small biotech firms on clinical trials. The stock of these companies fluctuates wildly. I wonder if I can become extremely rich?

 

What happened to your tutor job?

"JoblessJoe" I am well off my most standards myself. I have no student loans, excellent health insurance, good salary (65K b/c of tutoring job, in Texas) and good job security. So why am I not happy??? Depression? I'm not depressed, but not happy with life. I have very rich parents who offered to buy me a home, I have a nice car that they brought for me. My sister is a doctor and brother in medical school so if I ever get unemployed or ill, I have people to fall back on. But I'm not content, don't know why...
