built this as a joke. a friend bet me I couldn't make $1M off it by the end of the year.

Currently at $5,010. Amazing it even worked

This is crazy. I left you an upvote. When did you launch?

qane10• 1 month ago

A few days ago. Originally i started the site in 2024, but then closed it not long after.

A few weeks ago i then asked my friend about whether i could make a mil out of it if i started it again. So i launched it again just for the fun of it, but somehow it gained traction.

I'm honestly so greatful for the $5k. I really didnt believe i would even get a dollar out of it

The most entertaining outcome is the most likely.

Why? If there is a betting market for it and it works out, it won't be just you making money.

It's entertaining making money without doing anything lol

Amazing. How did people even find it to donate to you?

qane10• 1 month ago

I posted a few places, and got really lucky that it somehow reached the right audience

Thanks. I love that other people actually find this to be just as funny as I think it is

meh. this would be cool if it weren't for the challenge. people are paying for the bet.

Every dollar below makes the "no" a little less certain.

Remember the million dollar pixel site (you'd own a pixel on the site)? This reminds me of it, I love it.

Loved that site. The guy went on to co-found a $2 billion dollar company. Mad lad

While some people can't afford to have their own place to live, others apparently have too much money. Sigh.

Good luck to you though!
