I got about $75 bucks off it. One kid saw the link on Xanga.com TWO MONTHS AGO after I'd had the car for 11 months and paypal'd me $20! Mostly friends and relatives donated to tell you the truth. But there were a few total strangers. I'd have made far more if someone had sent the site into a radio station or if it got a big promotion.
I tell you what though... no one I know thought I'd have the balls to do something so shameless.
I put it up as a joke thinking if an idiotic college kid could wrack up 25k in credit card debt being stupid and get total strangers to donate to them, people would donate to my cause because it's worthy...yes, WORTHY.
I bet a few of the members of this forum would have given me a buck to realize my dream! OK, maybe not, but it's a happy thought I'm holding on to so no one post that they think I'm out of my mind, ok?
I tell you what. You put up a similar site, and I will donate to your worthy cause. It's the least I can do. Remember that movie with the little boy who told everyone to pay it forward?
