Getting a million dollars is a simple thing - just collect a whole bunch of $1 bills


Okay, I've made up my mind, a million dollars is a very simple thing to possess when you think of it as 1,000,000 - $1 bills. I've probably handled more than 1,000,000 $1 bills over half of my life time, I just never thought to keep those $1 bills.

So, I'm going to play a game with myself. It's a simply game really. It's called, how many $1 bills can I actually collect.

Then I can monitor the percentage of the 1,000,000 that I have accumulated:

Collect $100 and I'm 1/10,o00 of the way there . . .
Collect $1000 and I'm 1/1,000 of the way there . . .
Collect $10,000 and I'm only 1/100 of the way there . . .
Collect $100,000 and I'm only 1/10 of the way there . . .

See how easy that is?

It's even more feasible when I think that all I have to do gain 1 million dollars is sell 1 million things for $1. I'm not sure if I have 1 million things, but I'm damn sure that I have over 100,000 things! So, if I could sell 100,000 things and average $10, I'm well on my way to realizing my first goal.

Look around you, do you have 100,000 things? Do you have 10,000 things? Do you even have 100 things? Yeah? Then what the hell are you waiting for, start making money. E-bay, garage sells . . . here I come.
