Ask HN: Getting money for Graduation? Ideas?
I've heard of people sending Graduation flyers in hopes of getting money. (most do)
It would be nice, I do need money for grad school.
Here is my question/idea.
I am tempted to just spam my graduation flyer to every orthodontist, doctor, ect.. in our city.
I was also thinking about paying some neighbor kids to hang flyers on peoples doors.
What creative ideas do you guys have to improve my idea?
or
Is this worth doing?
Thanks in advance, please leave your input.
PS: Costs for this project are around $260.
I figure worst case scenario, loose some cash and have a good laugh, and help some neighbor kids earn some money.
- jlgaddis 13y agoIf I'm understanding correctly, you're contemplating just asking random people that you don't know for money, simply because you are graduating? May I ask where you are from? I'm genuinely curious if this is considered socially acceptable. It reminds me of the "homeless" guy standing on the corner at the intersection with a sign asking for money.
- calebcjb 13y agoHa yes, you understand me correctly. Utah, and yes people give money for every ecassion. I agree this plan wouldn't work in say Boston. And yes homeless guys do make a lot of money here Is it ethicly wrong..... ? Probably. But if some doctor opens up an invitation and says, "eh maybe he is a pationt send him $20" and I use that $20 for graduate school is that so wrong? Again the answer is probably yes lol
