“Get Rich or Die Tryin’” is actually about a very simple concept: Double your money at every opportunity.

The Goal

Basically, this means, that by starting with e.g. 1 € you have to aim for doubling it into 2 € in the shortest time possible. However, as simple as this concept sounds, some restrictions apply (which constitute the set of rules which is under constant development by the guys running this site, so stay tuned for any alterations ;).

The overall goal of our project however is nothing less than to end up with some 100 million € (134.217.728,00 € to be precise, which equals the amount of money you would get after doubling your starting wealth of 1 € for 27-times.).

The People behind it

The people behind this site (S. and H.) will reveal their identities step-by-step. As they are both employed and working as IT programme managers for a top 500 company, you can imagine, that their talkings here put quite a risk to them. Therefor, most identities of participating persons are anonymized as well, at least as long as we do not have gathered enough money to quit our jobs. Then, we will reveal the full picture. Until then, it is H. and S. from B. respectively W., working for C. Now, it is a contest. Who will succeed faster, the web, revealing our identities, or we, climbing the pyramid
Anyhow, this site, this blog, is where we will post every success and failure of our venture in pursuing the set goal of becoming some mega-rich sob’s

Ok, this is where the fun ends. The rules.

Starting Wealth

We decided, to start with the incredible amount of 1 €. Each of the stakeholders, SR and HR, contributed 50 cents, so the party is divided 50/50 amongst the two participants who have therefore equal rights in decision-making (see later sections).

Investments

Investments (e.g. purchasing goods, buying services) are only allowed for a max. amount of “cash held * 2″.

This means, that if the company has 50€ in assets and 20€ in cash, up to 20€ may be borrowed in order to make an investment / a purchase valuated for 40€.

Income

The most important part. Income may come from a) working for money or b) trading goods. Valid goods for trading are a) goods that have been purchased with the funds available or b) goods that have been obtained for free (e.g. a gift from a business partner (which one is not to accept anyways;)).
