From: Jason Pereira Dubai, United Arab Emirates March 15th, 2008 Subject: Have You Ever Heard of the One Dollar Millionaire? |
Good day, my online friend :)
Let me introduce myself - the name's Jason Pereira. 16 year old University student, and soon to be known as the one dollar millionaire.
You see, in life there's one thing that I absolutely hate about people... they always aim small. More often than not, people will never strive to be the best, reach the highest point possible, and are simply content with mediocrity.
If you're going to do something, do it all the way... it's just not worth it otherwise. Sure, make your goals somewhat realistic, but use very open terms to defind what realistic is, as thinking that something absolutely isn't possible will make that something impossible.
I started the Internet Marketing game, or Making Money Online experience in the summer of 2007. Since then, I've learned lots, and earned a bit more... however, I've made nowhere near the million dollars I'm now aiming for.
I'll tell you why - straight. You see, in my exploits online, I've never aimed for the big time... always for low numbers. Yes, to me, one thousand dollars is a lot of money, however how do you think Warren Buffet, Bill Gates or Carlos Helu (the current richest three men in the world) feel about that number?
Those men may have started off with the opinion that such an amount was the world, however I can almost guarantee you that as their wealth amassed, their views changed.
Those men obtained the wealth they have today because they were different, or simply by doing better than anyone else around them. Bill Gates became rich by founding Microsoft, one of the biggest brand names today; Warren Buffet started out delivering newspapers before he stumbled across the insurance industry; Carlos Helu built up Mexico's biggest ever telecom organization from scratch - all three men have a fascinating history, and best of all - immense amounts of money today.
They got this not by following patterns that many others had tested before, but by being innovative; by continually striving for excellence, by continually laughing in the faces of those that said they couldn't make it. Bill Gates as I'm sure you'll know dropped out of Harvard... did that stop him?
This is why I write the text on this page, this is why I aim to go where no one has gone before... and become the first ever one dollar millionaire.
| The little thing is... I need your help. I'm going to make the million, but you need to help me do so... by parting with one dollar of your hard earned money. And no, I'm not asking for a free donation, so read on below... |
You see, you'll be making world history by contributing to the cause... have you ever heard of someone that became rich off one dollar bills? Obviously as this is being conducted online, those bills are digital, but nonetheless... it's never been done before. :)
You see, it's often the insanely dumb ideas that generate the most money... the problem is, the insanely dumb ideas often offer no use at all to those that partake in them and people join them 'just so they could'.
If you want to help me become the One Dollar Millionaire, 'just because you could' by all means, feel free... however, I'm going to try and give you a better reason to take part... by offering you a crazy report.
If you're looking for a report that will blow your socks off, transform your life, get you BOTH the girl and car of your dreams and have you rolling in cash... please stop the drugs, as I cannot give you that for a dollar.
I will however provide you with something that should be of use, and is (hopefully!) worth a lot more than the measley dollar you spent... a report that lists Seven Ways To Live A Better Life.
Obviously I can't promise anything, as if I could I'd be one of those extremely qualified psychologists and overcharging you much, much more than a dollar... I can however tell you that you should find these tips useful.
Sure, I've seen this type of thing attempted before, but never actually completely, or even go semi-successful... because those that have tried to become previous One Dollar Millionaires asked for donations, rather than trying to provide something useful to visitors of their website.
You may still not see the point of contributing to the whole One Dollar Millionaire goal, so I'm going to give you some reasons on why you should...
Most people like Top X Lists, and I'm assuming you're no different... here's 25 reasons why you should participate in this insanely cool project.| 1. | You'll be making history. I've mentioned this a few times before, but it helps to reinforce a statement over and over again. |
| 2. | You'll be helping someone, which will give you that warm fuzzy feeling inside. |
| 3. | You'll be getting something useful, which is rare at a dollar these days (especially with inflation!) |
| 4. | Your parents will be proud of you. See warm fuzzy feeling mentioned in point 2. |
| 5. | If you don't participate, someone else will, and you'll feel bad. |
| 6. | Participating will bring you good karma, something that is always needed in life. |
| 7. | Money saved is money earned. I could have quite conceivably tried to become the Five Dollar Millionaire, meaning you're saving four dollars. |
| 8. | Your life isn't kick ass at the moment, and my guide will help. Sure, I don't have any qualifications, but you know - it's the thought that counts. |
| 9. | You have nothing to read at the moment. |
| 10. | You have something to read at this moment, but this report looks more interesting. |
| 11. | You wanted to go to the movies, but they were closed... leaving you with nothing to do but take a look at my crazy idea. |
| 12. | Somebody told you that the guy/girl you like wanted this report, and since you've just come across it, you might as well give it to him/her. |
| 13. | You are running high on profits for the month and want to lower them so you'd have to pay less tax. |
| 14. | You have $101.00 in your Paypal account and want to make that a nice even number. |
| 15. | You're bored. |
| 16. | You're not bored, but your little sibling is... and they're going to tear your ear off if you don't give them something to do. |
| 17. | You'll be able to tell people that you got a Limited Edition version of this report, as there are only 1,500,000 copies being sold. |
| 18. | You're helping fight against the killing of trees, as this report is delivered electronically. |
| 19. | You like insanity, and you've got to admit that my idea has got quite a lot of it. |
| 20. | You don't have anything else to spend a dollar on. |
| 21. | You're currently dieting, and need to get rid of spare change so that you won't spend it on junk food. |
| 22. | If you don't, I won't think you're cool. Hey, what do I know, but to some people complete strangers and their opinions are very important. |
| 23. | Your boss banned Facebook and Myspace at the office, and without this report you'll actually have to work. *Shudder*. |
| 24. | Your favourite sports team just lost, and without something to distract you (like this report) you might commit physical harm against something. |
| 25. | This list made you laugh, even though most of it wasn't funny. |
You've got to admit, this is one of the coolest sales pages you've ever read. Top ten, at least? :)
Do you know where I got this idea? Not through brainstorming, not even when I was doing anything particularly interesting, but halfway through my two-hour Accounting lecture last Tuesday. See, this shows that education is good for something. :)
I have had decent success selling reports online before, but you see these reports have never cost more than $20 dollars... very few people know who I am, especially on the Internet and it's unlikely that many people are going to spend more than that... without a list, and a reputation that takes years to build, there's no way I was going to make a million selling even $100 products.
Ten dollar products, on the other hand, I'd get more buyers... but I doubt I'd get much more, as at ten dollars, it's still an amount of money that people could use for other things, and while it is less than $100, reputation ties into it a little bit.
At one dollar however... heck, you spend one dollar on junk every day. Most people that are able to get access to a computer will not miss one dollar at all, especially when that dollar is contributing to perhaps the most viral idea to make internet history.
I thought that it would be easier to sell 1,500,000 copies of a one dollar product rather than 150,000 copies of a $10 product or even 15,000 copies of a $100 product. You see, when more people can participate in something, it not just usually yields better results, but also a lot more buzz and exposure.
A few of you may have wondered why I'm looking to sell 1,500,000 copies of a $1 product... the reason is that Paypal takes a large chunk of every transaction, to to reach the desired one million dollars (and become known as the One Dollar Millionaire) I will need approximately 1,500,000 sales.

A lot of the 'normal' sales pages would start giving you photo images on why you should get something... you see, I don't really see the point. Flash car? I'm too young to drive. Big house? Way beyond my financial capabilities, although we live in a nice rented villa.
You are going to contribute to the One Dollar Millionaire project because you wanted to, not because I put up pictures that promised lots but delivered nothing. For a dollar, what do you expect? :)
This website is going to make you rich...
Actually, I'm joking - no eBook alone will make you rich, as you have to put in the work to make it happen... some people only read the parts of a sales page that are BIG though, so the above line is just for them. :)
It's a crazy idea... yet one so crazy, I feel it might hit it off. Aiming to reach one million dollars, through a stream of one dollar sales, has never been successfully done before... until now, that is.
However, this idea will remain an idea... unless you help. Participate below, enjoy the tips, most of all... tell your friends, or better yet, blog about it if you have one. Remember, you're getting something insanely useful for the one dollar... which is rare. So rare, in fact that I'm hoping this will catapult me to fame and wealth.

The two above are personal friends, people that they know... they decided to send over the dollar even after I sent them a free copy, as they want to be part of the revolution. Who knows, if this becomes famous, they'll be able to sell their copies as the first ever electonically delivered copies of this. You think? :)
