    Flippa + Witches = Flippa Riches

    I came across this listing today, and whilst I genuinely dont intend to mock it anyway (despite the post title), I hope it can brighten someone elses day too.

    https://flippa.com/2673777-established-easy-money-making-site-15-000gbp-per-month

    It seems the real path to wealth is as a spell caster, who in this case earns £5K each month from her spellbinding retainer - Ryan Deiss / Frank Kern have nothing on this ladies money making abilities.

    Time for a career change I think

    Is it the case that it's getting 5 visitors a day at least one of whom spends a minimum of $150 to buy a spell?

    If so that's magic enough for me.

    Wait until you see the average transaction value in the earnings attachments - we're clearly missing a trick.

    I'm still waiting for my 'Panda disappearing spell' to work though .. I wonder if they have refund policy!

    I would suggest to the owners that they do a "make more money" spell to generate for them the amount they perceive as the value of the site - which they will tell me beforehand. Once they have done that and shown me the proof of income I'll pay them the £150 for the spell and they can then give me the site and the contract with the spellcaster. Then I can just work with the spellcaster to generate pure money.
    I don't know why they haven't thought of that already... In fact, if the spells work, why do they or the spellcaster even need the money?

    Never underestimate the power of belief to generate income. Ask any cult or MLM founder..

    I clicked on the "make more money" spell expecting to at least get more info about why I should part with £150 to buy it. Not a lot - just a short para about why I might like to have more money. Gee, I would be better off buying three MMO products at $47 each, at least I would have had tons of reading material, loads of files to unzip, plenty of upsells to consider, and hours of burble to watch on video.

    BTW, did anyone notice the guarantee on their "questions" page?

    I have to admit that is actually pretty cool that they managed to get a site in a few months from zero to $30k/month. That is of course if the figures are real.

    This didn't brighten my day, so I want my money back! On the contrary it's rather frustrating to see how people manage to make good money with ease.

    Re what Fiveleaves said above, that's one of the things I never fully understood about the Harry Potter films. How come the Weasley family is so poor when all they have to do is magic themselves up some gold?

    They're not poor ... they're 'bohemian'
