Ive seen some youtube videos about people who start with very little money and do stuff to double it. Im wondering what a everyday joe would do with 1 dollar and 24 hours to earn more? Would you resell water bottles to people, get a job, gamble? or something else? what is your game plan?
pay your mom for sex, then go to the 99¢ store 😎
Give the dollar to someone who looks hungry, then go to the park and read a book.

Recently I’ve been giving food bars to begars and panhandlers because everybody needs food and they’re probably not gonna use it for drugs.
If they spend that dollar or two at the grocery store for the same food bar they’re gonna get ripped off
make staged videos on YouTube like the one you’ve described.
Put the money in my pocket and forget about the whole thing.
I’d buy a pen, and try to resell it for twice the price.
Then I’d buy a pair of sunglasses…
Put it in my pocket
You either go and put it on black at the casino, or beg for more money.
I’d have to convert it to a local currency first, and I think the conversion fee is probably more than that, so I’d be starting with negative money at that point /j
Sleep
Use it to buy a marker, grab a piece of cardboard from a dumpster, write a short sob story, and beg at the corner of a busy intersection. If you don’t care about ethics, have absolutely nothing except the dollar, and need to make more, it’s probably your best bet.
I’d do what I’m doing right now. Dollar in wallet, body in bed, eyes about to shut.
If you got more dollars, lemme know, I can use them.
Spend the dollar on garbage bags and collect a bunch of bottles and cans. Depending on where you live, you could probably make a good amount of money from that. I’ve seen people with shopping carts full of bottles walking to the recycling kiosks.
I wish my town did that. I collect a lot for recycling anyways but I have to take it someplace to get rid of it.
Cut it in half. Now I have two dollars.
That’s actually a game we used to do as kids in scouting.
Not 24 hours, but an afternoon. 2 groups start with each 1 EUR. The groups go their own way, door-to-door, begging for a trade-up. Like the first household could give you a snickers bar. Then you take the snickers bar next door, and trade it for a book.
The surprise was to see what item the other team ended up with.
we did the same, but that was 30 years ago, i wonder how that game translates to today’s world. probably not very well.
Spend the euro on NFTs, sell them for cryptos, spend them on upvotes, likes and reviews. Alternatively, you could buy lootboxes and skins instead.
Why do you think that?
i think people would be more likely to see some kind of scam and just shut the door today. maybe if you are in some kind of uniform it helps, but lets admit it, the whole exchange less for more principle of the game is suspicious from the beginning 😆
I guess in car-centric America where there’s barely a sidewalk it might be suspicious, but here in Europe it’s a common thing for youth (or bachelor parties) to do.
To kids? Nah i think people still at least give an ear to kids for a couple seconds
We used to start with random objects; usually something nobody would want.
First order of business would be to somehow exchange into a currency I can actually use.
