How can I cash in on the swine flu epidemic?

Date July 15, 2010

I need to make some easy cash so I figured maybe I can do some swine flu resistant Feng Shui or Flu repelling Rizzla papers. I bet there’s some crusty Hippy out there claiming that Ganga is the most effective remedy and charging £150 a quarter for a bag of stinging nettles.

    just make shirts that say “I survived the Swine Flu”. literally everyone will buy one. $5 a piece adds up when no one is dying from it.

    I think Detol are way ahead of you on this one. They modified the original voiceover to the advert where the child’s hand morphs into raw chicken. As if it wasn’t threatening enough to begin with.
    I fear for that child. Sooner or later, Mum’s going to lower the defences and Swine Flu will waltz straight up to the highchair and chainsaw the kid’s head off.

    By the way, where can I buy a piece of the true cross? I think I’m coming down with something.

    EDIT: You know, CRAFTY – for a minute there I thought you were serious, mate! Nice one!
    Wait a sec. . . why does everyone have a thumbs-down apart from. . .
    Oh dear. He’s one of those.

    go to the junk yard and get some broken automotive glass. wash it and sell it as healing crystals. Make up some name that ends with either ‘ite’ or ‘onium’ and a barely plausible back story about South American jungle tribes or eastern mystics

    If you could spell what you sell properly then I don’t see why not there are are whole load of opportunities here for repellants, we just have to think about what pigs don’t like how hard can that be eh?. . . . . errm. . . . . . . . . . . . . .

    Failing that miserably then the nettle tea can be sold to the fundamentalists for cleansing out their demons, you might joke dear, but the detox effects are marvelous.

    Start a pharmaceutical franchise. . . or corner the market on the masks!!

    I don’t think this thing is something you can benefit from financially, otherwise you are ripping people off during these hard times. Do you really need to be doing that?
