This is an exiting and inspiring issue. Yesterday I saw a documentary on Discovery Science about a young student who dreamed about buying this beautiful house on the countryside somewhere in the US. The house cost 170.000 dollars.
He got an idea. Using the Internet he started a web page about a red paper clip. Anyone could trade something for this paper clip. The first thing that was traded was a pencil in the shape of a fish and that became a handmade doorknob. So now he had a doorknob to change for something with more value. The next thing was a barbecue grill to a gasoline generator. And that became a barrel of beer to make a party witch became a snow-scooter witch trough trade gave him a vacation to Yahk in Canada, and that led to a truck that led to a recording studio and finally he could trade his way to his dream house! An amazing and true story this is. He got his name in Guinness book of records. This took him exactly one year. imagine, from one red paper clip to a house with the value of 170.000 dollars. So If you really want to make one million dollars, using this example in calculation, it could take you about seven years.

Now, it cant be denied that its very important to "win peoples hearts", with that I mean you should have a website thats not all about "I want to be a millionaire". I mean who doesn't? Do something that draws peoples attention. Maybe by following this man example - trough trade, or by giving some percent of what you hopefully will make to donation. In my opinion, trying to raise money just for the cause of raising money, is quite unattractive. And will probably not help you in this matter.

Of coarse, without investing one cent I can only look at this as quite impossible. For example if you pick up your phone to make a call in this process, some cents will be invested. Even if you go on-line to make an errand, that too will show up on your monthly bill.
So be prepared to invest, not a large amount of money, but at least nothing out of the ordinary spending of your life. Because thats not required.
Hope you all find this inspiring, at least I did.
