Trouble downloading statements
Hello,
When I click the 'download to Money' icon on my bank's
website (also on my master card website) it isn't
actually downloading to my computer.
I've been using money for almost a year, and have never
had trouble with this before... any suggestions??

Money 2004 - Equity Option Problems
If anyone has any -Positive- experience with Money 2004 and Equity
Options, please post them.
I figure that either:
- Microsoft doesn't have anyone on their Money team with any
experience trading options?
- They're targeting Money for Joe Sixpack, who is more concerned with
paying the minimum payment on his Visa bill at the last possible
minute via epay.
Here are my main issues:
1. Money 2003 can't import buy/sell transactions for Equity Options.
(Equity transactions from my Vanguard and Scottrade accounts are
imported just fine.) You can MANUALLY enter Equity Option
transactions, however. I buy/sell a couple of these every week, and
probably spend at least an hour a week reconciling which Options have:
- Expired
- Repurchased
- Sold
- Sold with an in-the-money covered call
2. Money 2003 can't recognize when an out-of-the-money Equity Option
has expired. Money keeps it in your account forever, unless you find
it and then MANUALLY enter an "Expire" transaction for the old option.
Money also uses the last trade as the value, so your account balance
is wrong until you enter the Expire transaction.
3. Money 2003 can't link your investment in the stock to your
profits/losses on the options. Last year, one of my stocks was up
around 10%, but I made +50% by owning the stock and trading the
covered calls. (Yes, I certainly lost money on others.)
I've been keeping these figures in my homegrown Excel spreadsheet. It
would be nice if Microsoft could figure some of this stuff out!
Please post any work-arounds or responses.
Thanks! Tag: Just started! Tag: 141328
Converting M99.mny to M2003.mny.....
....I receive this error: "Money cannot open this file because it was
created by an incompatible version". My Money 99 is an italian version; I
downloaded trial version of M2003 (M11USWEB.exe) and I installed it in a
separated folder, anyway M03 changed my files in my original folder and I
had to reinstall Money 99 to fix up all. I think the two programs speak a
different language...
I should like to know if it will be possible to use my M99.mny file with
next Money 2004 and if this, or Money 2003, will be available also in
italian version (I noted that Italy is not in the list of international site
of Money).

odd behavior with bill pay to Discover Card
This doesn't happen with other bill pays (through Bank One, which uses
Checkfree behind the scenes).
When I schedule an e-pay say for July 31, the transaction is immediately
marked with "E". Obviously, nothing happens to my Checking account register
at the bank until July 31. Eventually when July 31 rolls around, when the
transaction shows up in my bank, then that statement when downloaded into
Money 2003, adds another line to the account register, throwing off all the
balances.
Q: Why is this e-pay to this party getting marked with "E" when I schedule
the payment and not when the payment clears the bank?

HOW TO TURN $6 INTO $6,000!!!!!!
READING THIS COULD CHANGE
YOUR LIFE!
I found this on a bulletin board and
decided to try it. A little while back, I was
browsing through newsgroups, just like
you are now,and came across an article
similar to this that said you could make
thousands of dollars within weeks with
only an initial investment of $6.00! So I
thought, SURE, this must be a scam,but I
was curious, so I kept reading. Anyway, it
said that you send $1.00 to each of the 6
names and address stated in the article.
You then place your own name and
address in the bottom of the list at #6,
and post the article in at least 200
newsgroups.(There are thousands) No
catch, that was it. So after thinking it over,
and talking to a few friends, I thought
about trying it. I figured: what have I got
to lose except 6 stamps and $6.00, right?
Then I invested the measly $6.00. Well
GUESS WHAT!!... within 7 days, I started
getting money in the mail! I was shocked!
I figured it would end soon, but the
money just kept coming in. In my first
week, I made about $25.00. By the end of
the second week I had made a total of
over $1,000.00! In the third week I had
over $10,000.00 and it's still growing. This
is now my fourth week and I have made a
total of just over $42,000.00 and it's still
coming in rapidly. It's certainly worth
$6.00, and 6 stamps, I have spent more
than that on the lottery!! Let me tell you
how this works and most importantly, why
it works....Also, make sure you print a
copy of this article NOW, so you can get
the information off of it as you need it. I
promise you that if you follow the
directions exactly, that you will start
making more money than you thought
possible by doing something so easy!
Suggestion: Read this entire message
carefully! (print it out or download it.)
Follow the simple directions and watch the
money come in! It's easy. It's legal. And,
your investment is only $6.00 (Plus
postage)
IMPORTANT: This is not a rip-off; it is not
indecent; it is not illegal; and it is virtually
no risk - it really works!!!! If all of the
following instructions are adhered to, you
will receive extraordinary dividends.
PLEASE NOTE:
Please follow these directions EXACTLY,
and $50,000 or more can be yours in 20 to
60 days. This program remains successful
because of the honesty and integrity of
the participants. Please continue its
success by carefully adhering to the
instructions. You will now become part of
the Mail Order business. In this business
your product is not solid and tangible, it's
a service. You are in the business of
developing Mailing Lists. Many large
corporations are happy to pay big bucks
for quality lists. However, the money made
from the mailing lists is secondary to the
income which is made from people like
you and me asking to be included in that
list.
Here are the 4 easy steps to success:
STEP 1: Get 6 separate pieces of
paper and write the following on each
piece of paper;PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR
MAILING LIST. Now get 6 US $1.00 bills
and place ONE inside EACH of the 6
pieces of paper so the bill will not be seen
through the envelope (to prevent
thievery). Next, place one paper in each
of the 6 envelopes and seal them. You
should now have 6 sealed envelopes, each
with a piece of paper stating the above
phrase, your name and address, and a
$1.00 bill. What you are doing is creating
a service. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL!
You are requesting a legitimate service
and you are paying for it! Like most of us I
was a little skeptical and a little worried
about the legal aspects of it all. So I
checked it out with the U.S. Post Office
(1-800-725-2161) and they confirmed that
it is indeed legal! Mail the 6 envelopes to
the following addresses:
#1) Leo Chernavsky
189 Leland Farm Rd.
Ashland, MA 01721
#2) Skazka
159 Concord Street
Framingham, MA 01701
#3) Boris Vaserman
246 Captain Eames Cir.
Ashland, MA 01721
#4) Elena Tsiprin
13210 NE 10th Pl
Bellevue, WA 98005
#5) Isabelle Vaserman
5531 Lakemont Blvd, SE#203
Bellevue, WA 98006
#6) Patrina Lewis
118 RidgewoodAve
Newark, NJ 07108
STEP 2: Now take the #1 name off
the list that you see above, move the
other names up (6 becomes 5, 5 becomes
4, etc...) and add YOUR Name as number
6 on the list.
STEP 3: Change anything you need
to, but try to keep this article as close to
original as possible. Now, post your
amended article to at least 200
newsgroups. (I think there are close to
24,000 groups) All you need is 200, but
remember, the more you post, the more
money you make! This is perfectly legal! If
you have any doubts, refer to Title 18 Sec.
1302 & 1341 of the Postal lottery laws.
Keep a copy of these steps for yourself
and, whenever you need money, you can
use it again, and again.
PLEASE REMEMBER that this program
remains successful because of the honesty
and integrity of the participants and by
their carefully adhering to the directions.
Look at it this way. If you are of integrity,
the program will continue and the money
that so many others have received will
come your way.
NOTE: You may want to retain every
name and address sent to you, either on a
computer or hard copy and keep the
notes people send you. This VERIFIES
that you are truly providing a service.
(Also, it might be a good idea to wrap the
$1 bill in dark paper to reduce the risk of
mail theft.)
So, as each post is downloaded and
the directions carefully followed, six
members will be reimbursed for their
participation as a List Developer with one
dollar each. Your name will move up the
list geometrically so that when your name
reaches the #1 position you will be
receiving thousands of dollars in CASH!!!
What an opportunity for only $6.00 ($1.00
for each of the first six people listed
above) Send it now, add your own name
to the list and you're in business!
---DIRECTIONS ----- FOR HOW TO POST
TO NEWSGROUPS------------
Step 1) You do not need to re-type
this entire letter to do your own posting.
Simply put your cursor at the beginning of
this letter and drag your cursor to the
bottom of this document, and select 'copy'
from the edit menu. This will copy the
entire letter into the computer's memory.
Step 2) Open a blank 'notepad' file
and place your cursor at the top of the
blank page. From the 'edit' menu select
'paste'. This will paste a copy of the letter
into notepad so that you can add your
name to the list.
Step 3) Save your new notepad file as
a .txt file. If you want to do your postings
in different settings, you'll always have this
file to go back to.
Step 4) Use Netscape or Internet
explorer and try searching for various
newsgroups (on-line forums, message
boards, chat sites, discussions.)
Step 5) Visit these message boards
and post this article as a new message by
highlighting the text of this letter and
selecting paste from the edit menu. Fill in
the Subject, this will be the header that
everyone sees as they scroll through the
list of postings in a particular group, click
the post message button. You're done
with your first one!
Congratulations...THAT'S IT! All you have
to do is jump to different newsgroups and
post away, after you get the hang of it, it
will take about 30 seconds for each
newsgroup!
**REMEMBER, THE MORE NEWSGROUPS
YOU POST IN, THE MORE MONEY YOU
WILL MAKE!! BUT YOU HAVE TO POST A
MINIMUM OF 200**
That's it! You will begin receiving money
from around the world within days! You
may eventually want to rent a P.O.Box due
to the large amount of mail you will
receive. If you wish to stay anonymous,
you can invent a name to use, as long as
the postman will deliver it. **JUST MAKE
SURE ALL THE ADDRESSES ARE
CORRECT.**
Now the WHY part:
Out of 200 postings, say I receive only 5
replies (a very low example). So then I
made $5.00 with my name at #6 on the
letter. Now, each of the 5 persons who
just sent me $1.00 make the MINIMUM
200 postings, each with my name at #5
and only 5 persons respond to each of the
original 5, that is another $25.00 for me,
now those 25 each make 200 MINIMUM
posts with my name at #4 and only 5
replies each, I will bring in an additional
$125.00! Now, those 125 persons turn
around and post the MINIMUM 200 with
my name at #3 and only receive 5 replies
each, I will make an additional $626.00!
OK, now here is the fun part, each of
those 625 persons post a MINIMUM 200
letters with my name at #2 and they each
only receive 5 replies, that just made me
$3,125.00!!! Those 3,125 persons will all
deliver this message to 200 newsgroups
with my name at #1 and if still 5 persons
per 200 newsgroups react I will receive
$15,625,00! With an original investment of
only $6.00! AMAZING! When your name is
no longer on the list, you just take the
latest posting in the newsgroups, and
send out another $6.00 to names on the
list, putting your name at number 6 again.
And start posting again. The thing to
remember is: do you realize that
thousands of people all over the world are
joining the internet and reading these
articles everyday?, JUST LIKE YOU are
now!! So, can you afford $6.00 and see if
it really works?? I think so... People have
said, what if the plan is played out and no
one sends you the money? So what! What
are the chances of that happening when
there are tons of new honest users and
new honest people who are joining the
internet and newsgroups everyday and
are willing to give it a try? Estimates are at
20,000 to 50,000 new users, every day,
with thousands of those joining the actual
internet.
Remember: play FAIRLY and
HONESTLY and this will really work. Tag: Just started! Tag: 141313

Out-of-state checks holding period
Hello:
It's not about Money program but rather about the money itself.
I wrote a check to a foreign company. The funds were drawn from my account, but
didn't arrive at the recipient's bank. I called Bank One, and they said there's
15 days' holding period for all out-of-state checks, according to federal
regulations.
I wonder, who keeps the money and, naturally, the interest - is it Bank One
(unlikely), or the Fed (most likely)? as I recall, this must be a new
development, at least such a long term.

TD Waterhouse duplicating transactions
In OFX downloads, the transaction ID <FITID> is supposed to be the
same for a given transaction if you download it again. That way
Money realizes that a transaction has already been downloaded.
Additionally, the file should not include transactions dated before
the <DTSTART> date. Failure to do this is not bad if the <FITID> has
been maintained.
However TD Waterhouse has been, for the last week approximately,
been missing on both counts. As a consequence the transactions for
the last two months have been trying to duplicate in the downloads.
This is tricky to work around. The <FITID> for a given transaction
are not limited to a single change but seem to be different each
time I have checked.
My suggestion is to make sure you have a good backup file before
downloading so you can restore the backup if you don't like the
download. There are other possible workarounds that vary according
to the version of Money you have.
And those of you who keep overwriting the same backup file should
consider mending your ways! Have more than one fairly recent backup
file. That is not specific to TD Waterhouse, but is important to
all. Tag: Just started! Tag: 141295
Loan is broken in Money 2k3
I'm trying to get money to recalculate the p&i on past
payments. It says it will, but does nothing.
The problem is that the first 6 payments look normal, the
next 2 registers too high an interest payment, the next 3
register NO interest payments, the next registers a HUGE
increase in principal (it's supposed to go DOWN!!!), and
the last registers a small increase in principal.
Every time I go back to the loan details and try to
reconfirm the settings (6.75%, 30yr fixed), it says there
are 13 payments to update, but does not touch any of
them. Tag: Just started! Tag: 141294
Loan not working correctly- again =(
I just realized that my loan information was set up
incorrectly, and Im not sure how to fix it. Okay, like I
said in my post, I am trying to create a loan which is
accruing interest NOW, BUT i dont have to make payments
until 05. However, when I try setting up the loan, it
doesnt calculate interest now. It just has it at the
principal amount and does not start caclulating interest
until 2005. Secondly, I have a question about making the
payments. I would like to start making payments on my
loan now. When I tried to do so under "incorrect" loan
account", it won't let me make payments until Nov. '05.
Any suggestions to resolve these two problems? Any help
would be appreciated! Tag: Just started! Tag: 141286
One more loan question =)
Hi,
I am trying to pay a loan off EARLY; I plan on making
sporadic payments of different amounts. There is interest
accruing on the account, but I am not scheduled to make
any payments until 2005. I have successfully entered the
loan into Money (thanks Bonnie) using the official
repayment date (Nov. 2005), but when I try and make a
payment to the loan, Money says that I can not do so until
2005. How can I change this so I can make payments of
irregular amounts (whatever I can afford for the month)

Scheduled Bills
Occasionally when I download my bank statement and edit
all of the transactions to match my scheduled bills &
deposits, some are not recognized. Most of the time when
there is a transaction that is a scheduled bill/deposit,
it will prompt me to verify if it is one of the scheduled
items. However, sometimes it doesn't prompt me and an
overdue bill will sit as unpaid accumulating days past due.
Is there a way to get scheduled bill to recognize the
appropriate transaction without using the skip this
occurrence function? Or does it not hurt anything to just
use the skip this occurrence function? Thanks in advance
for your help. Tag: Just started! Tag: 141270
Suggestions / Help
Hi:
I would like some advice on setting up the budget and
accounts in Money 2003. I have been using excel for years
to do our finances but would like to switch to Money 2003.
I believe the problems I am having are not unique. I am
open to suggestions for improving the workflow. Any help
would be appreciated.
Here is some background information:
* A primary checking account.
* A primary savings account
* An ING account
* Two credit cards
* Mortgage
* CarLoan
* One 401(k)
* Two Roth-IRAs
I have a fairly detailed budget.
All of the monthly bills are on autopay and are deducted
automatically from the checking account or charged
automatically on one of the credit cards.
Here are the problems I am having and some of my suggestions:
* I would like to set up the bills as recurring but not
have them show up in the budget. (I would like to use my
own budget). Currently if I make anything recurring, it
gets is own budget entry and I have two budget items for
everything and I am not able to delete the ones the Money
created from the budget unless I also cancel the
recurring/bill feature for them.
* For the items/bills that are not due every month,
(car insurance (A), real-estate taxes (B), home-insurance
(C), car-maintenance etc.) I divide them into 12 and
transfer a monthly amount to the savings: (A+B+C..)/12.
Whenever a particular item is due, I transfer the amount
back to the checking account and pay the bill. How should I
set this up? A separate account for each of these items
where I "transfer" to each of these accounts monthly and
"transfer" back when they are due? My goals for this:
o know at a glance how much I have saved for each
purpose
o be reminded when they are due
o easy reconcilliation when they get deducted
from my checking/credit account or transferred to/from the
savings account.
* At the end of every month, I would like to:
o Make up for the shortfall in some budget items
with excesses in other categories and then if something is
remaining in a category, roll some of it over to the next
month i.e. say I have a food budget to 200 and I spent only
150 and I know there are guests coming in next month, I
would like to roll over the excess 30 to the next month
food budget and use 20 to make up for the extra I spent on
movies. Or put it in long term savings if I choose to. If
there is a deficit, I would like to roll the deficit over
so that next month's budget is less. The default behavior
would be to just roll the balance or deficit over to the
same category automatically.
o bills that fall around the end of the month get
cashed the next month but I would like to somehow tell
Money that they are for previous month without changing the
transaction date.
* I would like to set up the home and car as assets
with loans attached to them and have recurring bills but
use my own budget categories for them.
* How do I categorize things that I know are temporary,
e.g. $20 that I loan to someone this month but get it back
next month or I pay $50 for something which has a $40
coming back in 8 weeks as mail in rebate.
* How do I reconcile the credit-card payment which show
up on both in the checking account and in the credit card
statement?
* How do I resolve budget items that span two major
categories e.g. car insurance. Does it go under insurance
or under automobile? (Ideally I would like it to be both
but not duplicated). I guess my suggestion is to allow
overlapping categories.
* Although I anticipate all my transactions to be
downloaded from statements, it would be nice to have a way
of entering transactions without having to choose the
account first. For me accounts are secondary, it is "what"
and "how much" that is important. When I start Money, I
would like to see a summary of recent transactions (sorted
by date) with the account name in the last column. Then I
should be able just append a new transaction manually to
that list choosing the account the last from a popup menu
(after entering date, category, payee, amount etc). This
way one can grab a bunch of accumulated receipts and enter
them easily without jumping around among accounts.
Thanks.

Weighted Average Price
I have a stock in my portfolio that keeps reporting that
the value has changed 'x' percent based on a weighted
average cost of $0.00. I have only two transactions

missing to get the weighted average price to calculate

be, but as I mentioned the reported weighted average is
$0.00.

Sick&tired of forced nonsensical upgrades!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We as consumers need to speak up and let these companies
(microsoft/apple/etc) know that these forced OS upgrades
need to end. Why won't Money for Pocket PC 2003 run on my
$500(!) Casio Pocket PC running the Windows Mobile 2001
OS? Are these Windows versions really that different. I
think we are quickly reaching a point where consumers
like myself are getting fed up with this upgrade scheme.
The changes between different versions of Windows is
getting exponentially smaller. Without a compelling
reason to upgrade for features, they're engineering in
artificial obsolesence. I guess this is why Gates is
branching out into hardware now. These scoundrals (Thanks
Mohammed Saeed al-Sahaf!) aren't the only ones doing
this. My $500(!) <1year old Ipod became obsolete in
Apple's eyes with the introduction of their latest Ipod,
they are intentionally limiting the software feature
upgrades to force me to by their latest Ipod. Perhaps to
Gates and Jobs, $500 is pocket change, but to the average
Joe like myself this is not the kind of money I tend to
throw away. Tag: Just started! Tag: 141221
International Versions of Money
Does anybody know how to convert a UK version file (Money
2000) to a US (Money 2003) file? When I try to open the
old file in the new program I receive an error that it is
not a supported file. When I try to import using a
Strict QIF a lot of my information is lost, such as links
between accounts and currency differences. Are these 2
products just incompatible?
If anybody has any insight, I would sure appreciate some
input. Thanks. Tag: Just started! Tag: 141211

Money 2002 no longer opens
I recently reinstalled Windows XP. Instead of installing
the entire Works Suite 2002, I only installed a few
individual components separately. Money 2002 worked fine
for a while, but for the past week or so it refuses to
open. Instead I get a window with the following
message: "Cannot display the End User License Agreement
which must be displayed and accepted before you can use
the application. To display the agreement, reinstall the

I have reinstalled the application several times and I've
now uninstalled it and reinstalled it several times as

works fine.) Any suggestions would be greatly
appreciated. Thanks. Tag: Just started! Tag: 141197

Using Microsoft Money 2003 for a small Church
I am the Rector of a very small (about 40 members)
Episcopal Church in a small town in PA. Does anyone "out
there" have any information how I can make Money 2003 work
for our very simple Church budget? An article I can read -
- some reference to making the categories work for a
church/business rather than home? We can certainly use
the online banking which Money provides -- but I don't
think we need the whole business version of Money 2003.
I'm thinking that, with a little tweaking, Money 2003 for
home will do the trick. Any suggestions? I'm grateful
for any helpful feedback. Many thanks. Tag: Just started! Tag: 141171
Importing and Exporting accounts
Hello. One of my accounts got "corrupted" and would no longer
recognize new transactions when I downloaded them. Attempts to run
salvage and super salvage failed. I also tried to delete my internet
files and then delete the new transactions but it wouldn't let me.
Anyway, I exported the account to a QIF file and imported it into a
clean mny file and it seems to be okay now. One big problem though...
When I import the data, it does not include any of the "category"
fields!!
Help! What can I do? Go to Quicken?? :)
Thanks...

Transferring Investments between Accounts
Several years ago, in a previous version of Money, I
established all of my investments with my mutual fund
company in one account. For years, since 1996, I have
been manually entering transactions: buys, sells,
dividends, interest, etc. for each investment each month.
I now have several hundred transactions in this account.
Recently, my mutual fund company allows direct download of
transactions into money. However, the only option is a
separate account for each mutual fund. I would like to
retain the historical costs and history of buys, sells,
etc. and thus would like to transfer all of the
transactions for a particular fund to a new account.
Is there any way to export or transfer all transactions
for an investment from an account containing multiple
investments to an account holding just a single investment? Tag: Just started! Tag: 141159
Turn $10 into $60,000
HOW TO TURN $10.00 INTO $60,000.00
I found this on a bulletin board and decided to try it. A
little while back, I was browsing through newsgroups, just
like you are now, and came across an article similar to
this that said you could make thousands of dollars within
weeks with only an initial investment of $10.00. So I
thought, "Yeah right, this must be a scam", but like most
of us, I was curious, so I kept reading. Anyway, it said
that you send $1.00 to each of the 10 names stated in the
article. You then place your own name and address in the
bottom of the list at #10, and post the article in at
least 200 newsgroups (there are thousands). No catch, that
was it. So after thinking it over and talking to a few
people, I decided to try it. What have I got to lose
except 10 stamps and $10.00? Well GUESS WHAT!!!. Within 7
days, I started getting money in the mail! I was shocked!
I figured it would end soon, but the money just kept
coming in. In my first week, I made about $25.00By the end
of the second week I had made a total of over $1,000.00!!
In the third week I had over 10,000.00 and it's still
growing. This is now my fourth week and I have made a
total of just over $42,000.00 and it's still coming in.
Let me tell you how this works and most importantly, why
it works. Also make sure that you print a copy of this
article NOW, so you can get the information, as you need
it. I promise you that if you follow the directions
exactly, that you will start making more money than you
thought possible. SUGGESTION: READ THIS ENTIRE MESSAGE
CAREFULLY!! Follow the simple directions and watch the
money come in. It's easy, it's legal. And, your investment
is only $10.00 (Plus postage) IMPORTANT: THIS IS NOT A RIP
OFF, IT IS NOT INDECENT, IT IS NOT ILLEGAL, AND IT IS
VIRTUALLY RISK FREE-IT REALLY WORKS!!!!!! If all of the
following instructions are adhered to, you will receive
extraordinary dividends. REMEMBER, THIS PROGRAM IS
SUCCESSFUL BECAUSE OF THE HONESTY AND INTEGRITY OF THE
PARTICIPANTS.
By doing this you will become part of the mail order
business. In this business your product is not solid or
tangible, it's a service. You are in the business of
developing mailing lists. Many large corporations are
happy to pay big bucks for quality lists. However, the
money made from the mailing lists is secondary to the
income, which is made from people like you and me asking
to be included in that list. Here are the 4 easy steps to
success. STEP 1-Get 10 separate pieces of paper and write
the following on each piece of paper (Or use your computer
to print 10). "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST." Be
sure to include your Name, Address, and E-mail. Now get 10
U.S. $1.00 bills and place one inside each of the 10
pieces of paper so that the bill cannot be seen through
the envelope. Make sure that there are enough stamps on
the envelope (Overseas mail may require an extra stamp or
two).
THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL! You are requesting a legitimate
service and you are paying for it! Like most, I was a
little skeptical and a little worried about the legal
aspects of it all. So I checked it out with the U.S.
Postal Service 800-752-2161 and they confirmed that it is
indeed legal!!!
Mail the 10 Envelopes to the following address below.
1. Komaco Com P.O. 1066 Durham Ontario Canada N0G-1R0
2. James 3 Pine Court Kentfield, California 94904 U.S.A.
4. Con/nos Stefanou P.O. Box 40501 Larnaca Cyprus
5. D Hodgins RR5 Shawville Q.C JOX-2YO Canada
6. S Dupius P.O. Box 985 Shawville Quebec JOX-2Y0 Canada
7. M. Dunbar C28 12 Line Shawville Quebec JOX-2Y0 Canada
8. T. CANNON P.O. BOX 762 MEADVILLE, MS 39653-0762
9. C. CANNON RURAL ROUTE 1 BOX 69 MEADVILLE, MS 39653
10. M. Mintz, 227 Madrid St., Warner Robins, GA 31093 USA
STEP 2
Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above, move
the other names up (10 becomes 9, 9 becomes 8, etc.) and
add your name and address as number 10 on the list.
STEP 3
Make any necessary changes you need to but try to keep
this article as close the original as possible.
STEP 4
Post this article to at least 200 newsgroups.
EVERY BODY AROUND THE WORLD CAN DO THIS; JUST REMEMBER TO
PUT ENOUGH STAMPS ON YOUR ENVELOPES!!!!!
This is perfectly legal, if you have any doubts refer to
Title 18 Sec. 1302 & 1341 of the Postal lottery laws. Keep
a copy of these steps for yourself and whenever you need
money, you can use it again.
PLEASE REMEMBER THAT THIS PROGRAM STAYS SUCCESSFUL BECAUSE
OF THE HONESTY AND INTEGRITY OF THE PARTICIPANTS AND BY
THEIR ADHERING TO THE DIRECTIONS.
You may want to retain every name and address sent to you.
This verifies that you are truly providing a service.
Remember Companies will pay for the mailing list too.
So as each post is downloaded and the directions carefully
followed 10 members will be reimbursed for their
participation as a list developer with one dollar each.
Your name will move up the list geometrically so that when
your name reaches the #1 position you will be receiving
thousands of dollars in cash!!
HOW TO POST TO NEWSGROUPS
STEP 1
You do not need to re-type this entire letter to do you
own posting. Simply put your cursor at the beginning of
this letter and drag your cursor to the bottom of this
document, and select 'Copy' from the edit menu (this will
copy the entire document into the computer memory.) then
open a blank "word" or "notepad" file and place your
cursor at the top of the blank page. From the edit menu
select 'paste'. This will paste a copy of the article so
that you can add your name.
STEP 2
Save your new document as a .text file (most programs do
this automatically) If you want to do your postings in
different settings you will always have this file to go
back to.
STEP 3
Using Netscape or Internet Explorer, search
for 'Newsgroups' (Using a quality search engine really
helps. I personally use Google.com)
STEP 4
Visit these message boards and post this article as a new
message by highlighting the text of this letter and
selecting copy and then paste from the edit menu. Fill in
the subject, this will be the header that everyone sees as
they scroll through the list of postings. Click the post
message button. That's it!!
All you have to do is jump to different newsgroups and
post away.
REMEMBER THE MOSE NEWGROUPS YOU POST IN THE MORE MONEY YOU
WILL MAKE!!!! BUT YOU HAVE TO DO A MINIMUM OF 200
You may eventually want to rent a P.O. Box due to the
large amount of mail that you will begin receiving
WHY SHOULD I DO THIS?
Here is an example (this by no means guarantees anything)
Out of 200 postings say I receive only 5 replies (a very
low number). So then I made $5.00 with my name at #10. Now
each of the 5 persons who just sent me 1.00 make the
MINIMUM 200 postings, each with my name at #9, and only 5
persons respond to each of the original 5 that is another
$25.00 for me. Now those 25 persons make the 200 MINIMUM
POSTINGS with my name at #8 and only 5 replies each, I
will receive an additional $125.00. Now, those 125 persons
turn around and post the MINIMUM 200 with my name at #7
and only receive 5 replies form each, I will receive an
additional $626.00! Now, if the 626 persons post a MINIMUM
200 with my name at #6 and they receive 5 replies, they
just sent me $3,125.00!!! Those 3125 persons post the
MIMIMUM 200 with my name at #5 and only 5 respond I will
receive $15,625.00! And it goes on and on. All of this for
an investment of $10.00
Then when your name is off of the list just take the
latest posting, send your $10.00 and start the whole thing
over again.
CAN YOU AFFORD NOT TO TAKE THIS CHANCE?
What do you have to lose? If you are like me you have
spent $10.00 in the first 20 minutes at the mall!!! Tag: Just started! Tag: 141158

PARENTS OF 15-YEAR-OLD FIND $71,000 HIDDEN IN HIS CLOSET!
Does this headline look familiar? Of course it does. You
most likely have just seen this story recently featured
on a major nightly news program (USA) & on Oprah. His
mother was cleaning and putting laundry away when she came
across a large brown paper bag that was suspiciously buried
beneath some clothes and a skateboard in the back
of the 15-year-old son's closet. Nothing could have
prepared her for the shock she got when she opened the
bag and found it was full of cash. Five-dollar bills,
twenties, fifties and hundreds, all neatly rubber-banded
and labeled piles.
"My first thought was that he had robbed a bank," says
the 41-year-old woman. "There was over $71,000 in that
bag - that's more than my husband earns in a year."
The woman immediately called her husband at the car
dealership where he worked to tell him what she had
discovered. He came home right away and they drove
together to the boy's school and picked him up. Little
did they suspect that where the money came from was more
shocking than actually finding it in the closet.
As it turns out, the boy had been sending out, via e-mail,
a type of "report" to e-mail addresses that he obtained
off the Internet. Every day after school for the past 2
months, he had been doing this right on his computer in
his bedroom.
"I just got the e-mail one day and I figured what the
heck, I put my name on it like the instructions said and
I started sending it out," says the clever 15-year-old.
The e-mail letter listed 5 addresses and contained
instructions to send one $5 bill to each person on the
list, then delete the address at the top and move the
other addresses down, and finally to add your name to the
top of the list.
The letter goes on to state that you would receive several
thousand dollars in five-dollar bills within 2 weeks if
you sent out the letter with your name at the top of the
5-addressee list. "I get junk e-mail all the time- and
really did not think it was going to work." the boy
continues.
Within the first few days of sending out the e-mail- the
post office box that his parents had gotten him for his
video-game magazine subscriptions began to fill up with
not magazines, but envelopes containing $5 bills.
"About a week later I rode my bike down to the post office
and my box had one magazine and about 300 envelopes stuffed
in it. There was also a yellow slip that said I had to go up
to the post office counter. So thought I was in trouble or
something (laughs)." He goes on- "I went up to the counter
and they had a whole box of more mail for me. I had to ride
back home and empty out my backpack because I could not
carry it all.
" Over the next few weeks, the boy continued sending out
he e-mail. "The money just kept coming in and I just kept
sorting it and stashing it in the closet, I barely had
time for my homework." He had also been riding his bike
to several of the banks in his area and exchanging the $5
bills for twenties, fifties, and hundreds.
"I didn't want the banks to get suspicious, so I kept
riding to different banks with like five thousand at a
time in my backpack. I would usually tell the lady at the
bank counter that my dad had sent me in to exchange the
money and he was outside waiting for me. One time the lady
gave me a really strange look and told me that she would
not be able to do it for me and my dad would have to come
in and do it, but I just rode to the next bank down the
street (laughs)."
Surprisingly, the boy did not have any reason to be
afraid. The reporting news team examined and investigated
the so-called "chain letter" the boy was sending out and
found that it was not a chain letter at all. In fact, it
was completely legal according to US Postal and Lottery
Laws, Title 18, Sections 1302 and 1341, or Title 18,
Section 3005 in the US code, also in the code of federal
regulations. Volume 16, Sections 255 and 436, which state
a product or service must be exchanged for money received.
Now automated for a fee of only $30 you can get started
immediately. Money deposited directly into your Storm Pay
or Pay Pal account.
