5 get rich quick schemes

Bankrate: 5 alternative investments for fat returns

Some out-of-the-box, alternative investments can pay you beefy interest rates -- and can even be fun or help others. They range from investing in Broadway shows, becoming a hard-money lender, funding startup companies and dishing out loans to peers.
...
Here are some other alternative investments to consider.

Is it just me or is it completely insane to go searching for high-risk "alternative" investments based on a free article on a web page? If you're not already enough of an expert to know about these ideas, then you don't know enough to understand the risks involved.

These kinds of investments might be fun speculation, but you'd have to be crazy to base some kind of money-making strategy on them if you've never heard of them before reading this article.

To quote Homer Simpson: After years of disappointment with get-rich-quick schemes, I know I’m gonna get rich with this scheme ... and quick!
