Free $50 To Give Away

Everybody loves free stuff. So as part of the Christmas Celebrations, I am giving away MONEY!

ANYONE can earn it.

Just leave a comment on this post and you stand a chance to win.

I wil pay by Paypal or internet banking (if you have a bank account in Singapore)

How to WIN?

Simply post a comment below this post (no vulgarities and spam please). The prize money starts from $0 and increases by $1 with every comment below this post up to a maximum of $50.

The person whose comment is the last (with no comments in the next 24 hrs) walks away with the prize money. There will only be 1 winner

Multiple postings are allowed but you are not allowed to post consecutively.
*Updated 2nd Dec 2009 2.41pm - consecutive postings if any will be considered as 1 posting. I.e. if a user post 10 consecutive postings, it will only be considered as 1 posting

Example 1: You are the 5th person to comment and nobody else comments after 24 hrs, you walk away with $5

Example 2: You are the 34th person to comment and nobody else comments after 24 hrs, you walk away with $34.

Example 3: The competition heats up and people keep posting comments. As long as you are the 50th person to comment, you win the $50 which is the maximum prize money.

The maximum amount to be won is $50 and there will only be 1 Winner.

The winner is to inform me through my email (sgfinancialfreedom@gmail.com) on the payment method he would prefer (Paypal or i-banking).

I reserve the sole right to determine who the winner is if there is any conflict. Remember the 24 hour rule.

Prize money is in Singapore Dollars.

    Clever tricks, guys. But until the blog owner mentions that the contest is off, it is safe to assume that it is still on.

    Thanks.

    I guess it is still on!!!

    Hi FF,
    do you need my bank account number for the money transfer? Thanks!

  18. MusicwhizDecember 2, 2009 at 7:43 PM

    Hi Gohsip,

    Yes he will need your bank account assuming you are the winner. Meanwhile, the game is still on.

    Cheers, Musicwhiz

  26. LauDecember 3, 2009 at 11:35 AM

    Interesting. Very creative.
    But what do you hope to achieve?
    Or is it just a means to have a contest.

    ReplyDelete
  27. MusicwhizDecember 3, 2009 at 12:04 PM

    Seems like it's just a method to see how people react. A test of human psychology, perhaps; but a rather costly one for the blog owner. Haha.

    ReplyDelete
  28. GohsipDecember 3, 2009 at 6:43 PM

    The $50 is mine. MW go away.. lol

    ReplyDelete
  29. MusicwhizDecember 3, 2009 at 7:21 PM

    Hi Gohsip,

    No need to be rude haha, it's perfectly fine to feel challenged and threatened, but it's a normal reaction and we should thoroughly analyze it instead of fearing and fleeing from it. Psychology is always an intruiging aspect of human behaviour and I have often spent free time thinking and rationalizing about it.

    Imagine, just over $50 and strangers are already fighting over it on a blog! What if $500 were awarded instead? Chaos may reign.....haha.

  30. 3mDecember 3, 2009 at 9:55 PM

    ha...free for all and chaos. So we need the Leviathan

  31. MusicwhizDecember 3, 2009 at 11:21 PM

    No, perhaps we need Gladiator. Or even He-Man and Masters of The Universe.

    Now I am rambling...

  32. wayne900December 4, 2009 at 12:15 AM

    $50 is good enough for a nice dinner.

    ReplyDelete
  33. MusicwhizDecember 4, 2009 at 7:35 AM

    Can also save it or invest it and compound it.

    ReplyDelete
  34. GohsipDecember 4, 2009 at 8:57 AM

    Did someone ask for He-Man? I am the Master of the Universe!!!

    ReplyDelete
  35. MusicwhizDecember 4, 2009 at 9:02 AM

    That's indeed a very amusing statement!

    ReplyDelete
  36. wayne900December 4, 2009 at 9:47 AM

    $50 invest it and compound it to $5000. Possible?

    ReplyDelete
  37. MusicwhizDecember 4, 2009 at 11:07 AM

    That would be almost impossible. You are talking about a 10,000% gain?

    ReplyDelete
  38. wayne900December 4, 2009 at 11:59 AM

    yeah hahaa it is impossible. Did anyone win this contest already? Who is the winner?

    ReplyDelete
  39. GohsipDecember 4, 2009 at 12:01 PM

    I guess the winner is me. Hope that answers your question.

  40. GohsipDecember 4, 2009 at 12:14 PM

    Can't believe u guys are fighting over $50 with me. Where's the brotherhood!

    ReplyDelete
  41. MusicwhizDecember 4, 2009 at 2:14 PM

    Gohsip, you like to post consecutively haha! Spoils the counting. Actually it's 38 comments (less 2 for consecutive posts). Plus this one by me it will be 39 comments.

    It's not about brotherhood. It's about human psychology. Interesting "experiment".

  42. UnknownDecember 4, 2009 at 2:49 PM

    50 bucks for a comment. why not?

    Dear all,

    I have received the S$50 from FF as promised. Thanks for the contest, FF and I must say this is a most unique and unusual contest I have taken part in! I didn't expect to win; guess I got lucky this time.

    Have a good week!

    Hi all,

    Glad that all of you enjoyed the contest.

    As you all should know by now, Musicwhiz won the contest with the 50th comment.

    For a while, I was almost wondering who would put in the 49th comment.

    Spread the Christmas Cheer around =)

    Hope to come up with some new contest next time round. Hopefully, the prize money or whatever prize will be MUCH BETTER.

    Do stay tune.
