Okay so let me first introduce myself - my name is Thomas Burns aka Mr Skinflint and for the pass 10 years I have been seeking ways to make extra money and so far I have not achieved much aside from a few extra grand a year through surveys, which is time consuming and very low pay for the amount of work required.

The plan is now to try some new ways to make approximately £10K per month, which to me would be a very satisfying income and enough for me to take this up full time.

I am inviting you on my journey over the next few years during which I will more than likely fail to achieve this goal but I am likely on the way to evaluate the validity of a number of so called get rich schemes

Day 1 - Let it Begin


The first scheme I am trying is a betting tipster site called BenardTips.com. I opted for this site after a few days of surfing and comparing as it had the fewest complaints against it. Not really much to go on but I decided after going through some mental arithmetic there was a real possibility this could make me the £10K per month and it was worth a shot for at least 1 month.

Now I will start by saying this service is far from free - it has actually cost me £167.34 for the 1st month as I took out the gold service - and such a price does distinctly smell of scam. However their customer service was very responsive to my questions and there published predictions did demonstrate a reasonable high success rate. The following cut of the website shows my membership details and that it is due to expire on 01/05/2012 just so you know this is for real:



Today I received my first tips - 1 over 2.5 prediction for silver and 1 combo bet of 2 results being over 2.5 for gold. I chose to combine the bets into a single treble and placed £4 on the combination with a potential win of approximately £28 using William Hill (my current favoured betting site). The following shows this bet registered on my William Hill account:



This seems to be the standard daily prediction and at such a rate I have determined I need approximately 15 winning days per month to make profit as well as cover the costs for next month's bets and tipster fee.

Overall I have invested £287.34 into this scheme with £120 going into my William Hill account to cover a month's worth of bets (assuming I bet £4 per day). The following shows my William balance after I placed my first bet:



I am not sure what will happen as the matches were fairy random and not popular matches so it does have some promise. I will update this evening to publish the outcome and if this scheme does prove successful - it will take roughly 5 months to achieve the £10k per month goal - I will fully publish the workings of my system so anyone can repeat it.

I will, however, be completely honest and if it fails then I will publish that as well and then it will be on to the next scheme
