I bet this would work. I got this idea after seeing the dukes of hazard car being sold on ebay: 1) buy such an item that a lot of people know and care about like the dukes of hazard car 2) go on youtube or something and show a picture of it and you out in the desert with a sledgehammer where nobody can find it, threatening to destroy it unless you receive 10 times the amount you paid for it in donations. Even better, you state you will give the car to whoever donates the most. This would have many people donating huge sums of money competing to be the one to donate most as well as people donating small amounts to have the combined total within your '10 times as much as you bought it for' demand. |

Actually it should be more like 100 times what you paid for it. The main hurdle is the initial capital to buy the car or item for this stunt. It's sort of like a legal (since you own it) kidnapping where nobody gets hurt and only rich people who wouldn't miss their money anyway get burned. Concealing your identity might be wise if possible, but then again people would need to trust that you'll keep your word; maybe you can have a neutral third party like a bank or something give credibility. And you'd have to post the story and link to the donation site on digg/slashdot and every other major memestream. |

You've probably all heard of the 'million dollar homepage'. If not, then look at this fool who basically had the genius of exploiting the media and stupidity of humans for a huge profit: He exploited about every memetic system (ebay, news, blogs that linked to the news). |

ok i think it's smart, i'll add this: you'd better get some actor to come out later saying he did it. because you'll be found out and stalked by media the rest of your life otherwise. you will split the profits with this guy as follows: he gets all the money from interviews, you all the money for the car maybe im overthinking now though |
