I'd study the effects of alcohol consumption and attentiveness at the local gentleman's club.

Put up a website advertising the world's most effective product to kill all insects, whether in your home, lawn or garden - for the low, low price of $19.99, shipping & handling only $5. Totally organic -Gauranteed non-toxic, won't harm pets or children!

When you get their money mail them two small wooden blocks with instruction that say "place insect in between blocks and press firmly". ;)

Topic Title: If I gave you a $100 R&D budget, what would you do with it?

1. Visit the local bar.
2. Drink :beer: and decide what to do w/ $100 in R&D cash :confused:
3. Realize I couldn't do much w/ $100 :eek:
4. Pay my bar tab and leave a nice tip. :D

Based upon past observations, I come up with my best R&D ideas while the girlfriend and I are liquored up, bantering about stuff. So ima need to buy some liquor, and one of those voice recorders to sit on the table to capture the genius.

if you want to make money with $100, something illegal is the only easy way.

Make up some Pokemon-ripoff. Buy $100 worth of thick paper, cut them into cards, print over the basics on them, and draw random animals on them. Sell them to young children's parents by convincing them that they are the latest and greatest fad. Profit.

Buy specials at Fry's (especially mobo/cpu combos) and resell them on ebay. It is amazing, if you look at Friday's Fry's ad and compare it to Saturday's news auctions. For people who are not near a Fry's, they can get the items for less than anywhere else while the sellers can still make a pretty good profit.
