Obviously, you can either work your arse off and earn it, or steal it. Can't really think of any other way!

use the £1.75 to buy a ski mask and rob the bank, or put 10p bets on 17 races as an accumulator.

errrrrm ..... make something to sell on ebay?

Hey you'd make much more than £1.75. It's surprising what crap people will buy. ;)

What skills have you got?

Start by looking at what you're good at and whether you can somehow sell that skill on.

I arrely say this, but if the need for money is to avoid someone breakling your legs (or the legal equivalent) have you thought about asking your bank manager or credit card issuer? Of course, that simply lengthens the time you have to find the money, as you still need to pay it back.

How fast do you need it, and what are the consequences of not getting it?

there was once an interesting book which was very logical and correct in describing how best to make a million.

The book maintained that if you start with 1p (which was helpfully taped to the cover of the book to get you started) and you could double your money once a day, then you'd be a millionaire in no time (about a month I think)

Seeing as you only need four grand 19 days ought to do it.

you'll need a run of luck though. Doubling from 1 to 2p is not hard, and in fact all the way up to 1.20 is pretty easy.

A casino with a roullette wheel will allow you to place an almost 50/50 bet on red or black, odd or even. It will need to be the minimum bet.

The book, I can't remember its name, was full of helpful suggestions of how to double each given sum on each given day.

Have you seen those ads in the paper/ your inbox/ your doormat

Earn £££s from this fully legit home selling business. I will tell you everything you need to know to earn a second income, Money Back Guarantee - Send £10 for information now! Delivery Guaranteed in 7 Days

Obviously it's a scam. Send them £10 and they will send you instructions on how to word and place and ad, very much like theirs. You place the ad, and another 100 suckers like you send their tenner in - and you send them instructions on how to scam the next, er, 10,000 suckers. They are delighted with their results and place ads hoping to lure in 100,000,000 people. They may experience disappointment.

The scam continues to resurface, I think, because instead of spreading exponentially like that, most people who send in their £10, get their factsheet, think "this is crap, I'm an idiot" and keep schtumm about it.

Clever idea though - but now you can save yourself a tenner and do it yourself (j/k)

Surely the best way to make money fast involves a very high quality laser printer???

On a serious note tho - if anyone does know how to make 4 grand pass it on. I aint got the baliffs at my door but i sure could use a new car!

That book sounds cool. Why can't you remember the name?

Other than that, there is money to be made on ebay if you cater for fetishists. For example, some wierdos will pay good money for used flips flops and such.

:gag:

Are you male or female? If you're a female you could consider doing a surrogate pregnancy. But if you're a bloke I think the standard rate for a cup of your finest output is only £15. Being a "high class" escort also pays rather well. Or so I hear!!!

How fast do you need this cash? And what is it for?

Take pics of your feet.
One of my friends was once paid £20 to go into the toilets by a man so he could kiss her feet while she called him nasty names and tell him he was dirty!

Sex sells!

Because it had a penny taped to the cover, mainly.

Doubling £671,000 in one day can be tricky. Max bet on a roulette table in this country is very low. You could try day trading it on the markets.

Become a drug research volunteer. You'll need to be fit, healthy, a non-smoker mostly, and not dependent on or currently taking any medication, or have any kind of 'condition'.

If you are lucky, you'll get a placebo. If you are unlucky, you'll get the psych-ops nightmare agent, or tranquiliser or weird-ass antidepressant.

I understand the pay, depending on the trial, isn't bad.

You could always sell one of your kidneys- assuming you aren't going to need it in the future (but then how would you know?).

Failing that I know of a couple of people who make a good living at shoplifting. They even plan to spend 6 months out of every year in prison, and therefore don't need to budget for rent for half of the year. It seems to work for them....

seen as a moderator is encouraging thieving, you might as well sell crack to children and let them thieve for you, once they are hooked you have guranteed weekly income till they are locked up.
or get a job work 40-70 hours a week and hey presto
