Opportunity is knocking on your door today.  The opportunity to make a
lot of money, get out of debt, and fulfill your lifelong dreams.  Read
the attached article at least twice and then pick up a pencil and work
the numbers out on paper.  I have included an example which may not make
sense until the attached article is read, but it gives you an idea of the
potential of this opportunity.

EXAMPLE:  If every person on the list gets 5 people to respond, and you
have reached position 5 in the list, you will make $3905.  Its called 
geometric progression and it works like this:
					
Position  5 = You
Position  6 = Your 5 repsonses =      $   5
Position  7 = Level 6's 5 responses = $  25
Position  8 = Level 7's 5 responses = $ 125
Position  9 = Level 8's 5 responses = $ 625
Position 10 = Level 9's 5 responses = $3125
                  Total sent to You = $3905

When you move up from there you will make even more money.  And what if
responses are higher than 5 people?  By the way, just putting yourself in
position 5 or higher won't work.  In order for geometric progression to
work it must build.  That's why position 10 is the start place.  This 
allows you to build up a successful response--the kind that will yield a
lot of money.

If you have been looking for a chance to make it big and you are willing
to do a little work for your success using your computer and spare time,
this program is right for you.  I'm on my journey to success.  Won't you
join me?  Opportunity is knocking on your door today. Why not open the
door and begin your journey too?

The following letter was written by a participating member in this
program.
************************************************************************
To those with the COMMON sense to participate in this easy money
opportunity: 

About six months ago I received the enclosed post in letter form.  I
ignored it.  I received about five more of the same letter within the
next two weeks.  I ignored them also.  Of course, I was tempted to 
follow through and dreamed of making thousands, but I was convinced 
it was just another gimmick and could not possibly work.
  
I was wrong!  About three weeks later I saw this same letter posted on
a local bulletin board in Montreal.  I liked the idea of giving it a 
try with my computer.  I didn't expect much because I figured, if other
people were as skeptical as I, they would not be too quick to part with
$5.00.  But, I BUY LOTTERY TICKETS WEEKLY IN MY PROVINCE AND
HAVE NOTHING TOO SHOW FOR IT BUT TICKET STUBS!  This week I decided to
look at this as my weekly lottery purchase.  I addressed the envelopes 
and mailed out $1.00 in each as directed. Two weeks went by and I didn't
receive anything in the mail.  The fourth week rolled around and I
couldn't believe what happened!  I can not say that I received
$50,000.00, but it was definitely well over $35,000.00!  For the first
time in 10 years I got out of debt.  It was great.  Of course, it did
not take me long to go through my earnings, so I am using this 
excellent money making opportunity once again.  FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS 
AND GET READY TO ENJOY!
  
Please send a copy of this letter along with the enclosed letter so
together we can convince people who are skeptical that this really does
work!

				Good Luck,
				Charles Kust

If you don't belive Charles then you should listen to me, I downloaded 
this a year ago and then sent 5 dollars to the top 5 people on the list,
within weeks letters from around the US were comming to my mail box, I 
haven't totaled up what I've gotten since then but I also am out of debt
and have a new car(I paid cash). So don't be skeptical it really does 
work.  Just do it the right way and get instant cash, THE RIGHT AND LEGAL
WAY.  If you think this is wrong then throw this away and don't send any
money, otherwise follow the instructions and reap the returns!!!!!!
