so man A sends a letter to man B
($1 +.42(stamp) =$1.42) not inculdeing the envolope we will estimate at $.5 ($1.42+.5=$1.47) spent to send the dollar to man B.

Man B cost of X amount to post add in news paper ( local add placement in our news paper $55 a week)
Man b = -$55.00

man B recives $1.00 (-$54.00)
Man B sends envolope ($.5) plus sheet of paper ($.2) plus stamp ($.42) means he recived 1 dollar -$.49. there for a profit on transaction of $.51.
this means 108 people must send him this letter THIS WEEK JUST TO BREAK EVEN. and if 108 people dont do it THAT WEEK he goes further down.

Man A now -$1.47 takes out add in paper for $55.00( now down $56.47. this man however now needs to recive 116 returns in one week. OR HE GOES DEEPER.

and each person that follows this will go a few dollars deeper in the hole


moral either its get rich quick for " the man "(government) or for the newspaper company
