I'm not sure how easy it will be for people to answer this question, and I'm not sure if this board is the right place to post this. But I hope to get some answers anyway. Which resources would you use, which steps would you take, which persons would you talk to, what negotiations would you make in order to produce twenty dollars out of a five dollar bill?

...depending on Interest Rates and so forth...deposit money, Five Dollars into an interest bearing account.. when reach the desired amount...possibly withdraw funds, the twenty dollars.

Not sure, but I think any other option would be illegal, and grounds for dismissal from the zone according to the terms of agreement.

Therefore, good call Grace.

Do you mean to say that nobody can think of ways other than illegal to make money? Come on Bob, if little kids can think of spending a dollar to buy foam cups at the 99 cents store, buying a couple of gallons of water, picking lemons from their backyards, and setting up a lemonade stand, then surely adults can be creative too. I guess I just want to hear how well our fellow zoners do when faced with a money problem. There's nothing wrong with developing our problem-solving skills. Or maybe I'm interpretting the terms of service incorrectly?

Raskolnikov, here's the obvious answer.

Develop a close friendship with a totally blind person, transport said person to a location utterly bereft of sighted people and money identifying technology, and ask him/her to break a twenty!

Buy a pack of cigarettes, go to the bar and sell them for a dollar a peace to drunk people who don't have any of there own.

lol i guess you'll have to sign up to one of the paid servays sites, for example ciao.
It is a little bit harder for blind people but not impossible, for example a sited person can just do webdisign warez we would have to learn something like audio production.

Okay, I'll try.

Pay five dollars for some speed, hold on to it until final week at your local university, then sell it for twenty.

Well, you could rip it in to four pieces, take each piece to a separate bank and try and exchange it for an intact fiver. Boom, you'd have your dollar twenty.

Good idea, get a blind person to brake a twenty, or buy a 24 pack of coke, and take it to a sporting event, and cell them for the outragious price of a dollar a peace.

Rasc, you write. writing articles is a good way of earning cash, for onlien magazines and so on. Also if you already have a web site, google add sense has a 5 buc sign up fee, and you can make money that way too. Audio transcription for people. Making an ebook about a niche subject, write 10 articles, at 2 bucks a piece, put them in the ebook format with a pdf maker, and viola, 20 bucks. and not just 20 bucks all told, but 20 bucks an ebook.
