"the only thing that matter, is the power of will and everything
else can be made with just one dollar" - 1 dollar millionaire
Hello and welcome to the 1 dollar millionaire blog.
The 1 dollar millionaire is a project of a group of friends who think that is possible to do one ambitious task: turn 1 dollar into one million dollars.
How do we expect to accomplish this? Easy, we will use all of our skills like creativity, technological skills, ambition, intelligence, etc., and one initial dollar worth of investment. From there, we will invest, gamble and make use of our entrepreneurship spirit to make it happen. From now on our mantra will be: "Gambling, Investments and Entrepreneurship".
Our rule is simple: we can only contribute with one dollar out of our own pockets. Everything else must be built from that one dollar initial investment.
We pretend to tell our story in this blog. You will know what went right and what went wrong in every step of the way. In the end, if you take off what went wrong, you will have some sort of recipe of how we turned 1 lousy dollar into a fortune, so that you feel encouraged to practice them in order become wealthier.
As you can expect we will have to try all kind of wild and bizarre things. Although we cannot guarantee you, that we will produce a formula for you to get rich, we, at least can assure you will have fun reading our experiments.
We truly hope that this project may inspire you: let us show the world that the only thing that matter, is the power of will and everything else can be made with just one dollar!
If you are still skeptical about what we are proposing here let us just tell you three stories that inspired us:
#1 -
Kyle MacDonald started with one red paperclip on July 12, 2005. He traded that clip for a pen, the pen for a doorknob, the doorknob for a coleman stove and so on, until in July 12, 2006 he made is last trade for a house!
#2 -
Alex Tew , a 21-yeard-old student launched on August 26, 2005 a website with a page with a 1000 x 1000 pixel grid. He sold each pixel for publicity for 1 American dollar. He sold every pixel on that grid.
#3- James Hong and Jim Young were at a bar drinking when they started to talk about a girl they recently met. They could not agree on wether that girl was a perfect 10 or not, so they made a site and let the Internet decide.
HOTorNOT , the site James and Jim made, has today a very profitable casual dating service, making $5 million to $10 million a year.
As we can see, everyone in these examples started off with something almost without value and turned it in something of great value. We could tell you many more stories like the ones above since great things start out with low material value, the true value is inside all of us.
But right now we prefer, to start our own story and accomplish the same.
And the race has started! Come back for more news soon, to check out on our progress. If you want to talk to us, send an e-mail to 1dollarmillionaire [a t] gmail.com, or leave a comment on this blog.
