The Cash Out Web Site

There are only a few requisites for a web site that can make you millions:

- Easy to build and maintain.

- When people go to it they say “Cool!”.

- They tell their friends about it.

- They visit it a couple times a day.

Exit Plan: after 5 years sell it to one of the big players for $100 million.

You might be saying, sure, that’s not exactly easy.

But if you have the right idea it can be. Do you have any? I’m waiting for the apple to fall on my head. I really can be that easy.

And of course BMW appropriated the image as a commercial:

Here is the simulation:
