    You have a $20 bill, and you need to double it. You have 1 month, you must keep it in cash (No banks, cashapp, credit cards), you don't have an address, a phone number, or and you can't interact to people in public. using just the internet and an email, how do you double the money?

        No time constraint. So it's very easy: you just follow a random person until they accidentally drop a $20 bill.

            If I knew how to do that, I would do it with $10,000 or $100,000 and not $20.

            How the fuck are you not gonna interact with people but have cash change hands?

            You can't talk to people. You can't meet people, but you must somehow get money from other people. The fuck.

            You also can't use banks or credit cards? How the fuck are you gonna meet someone online and get them to mail you $20?

              Don’t delete this after getting responses like you did last time. That’s a real jerk move.

                  Check their post history. Asked for help setting up some online club, got loads of helpful responses. Deleted the post but not their comments.

                  Wouldn’t be the first Lemmy leech I’ve seen who takes advice and then rips away the discussion.

                      It got removed for not being an open-ended question, i did not remove it. I was genuinely enjoying the criticism!

                          get creative. Find local boards, email and make connections, do not contact trades with the cash and a product and trade it up enough. Email companies. think outside the box

                                    In the money value system? Buy and resell drugs, or prostitution.

You have 1 month, you must keep it in cash (No banks, cashapp, credit cards), you don't have an address, a phone number, or and you can't interact to people in public. using just the internet and an email, how do you double the money?

                                          100% return in one month? Just using the internet? Impossible.

                                          That's one of those things that would be immediately, completely used up the moment it exists. A free lunch, basically.

                                          In theory, you could get a few percent annualised return for nothing the conventional investment way, but I don't know how easy that would be especially with a small amount, and anti-laundering laws exist to (try to) stop you from doing it anonymously like that.

                                          It feels like you might be hoping for a hustle, but you either need to deliver something of value right at the time of the transaction, or promise to deliver value and have an verifiable identity where they can come and find you if you don't. Because the other people with the money you want aren't stupid.
