We need to do this, just like the movie. Post ITT if you're up to it!

I'm not sure how you could organize this...The idea has always intrigued me, though.

There's a movie called pay it forward. It's about a kid who likes hobos. It makes people cry.

*sigh* The kid in the movie has an idea that he's gonna do three people a favor, and then tell them to do favors for three more people. Then those people will do more favors and so on... it's basically an orgy of favors. Or a pyramid scheme. I'm pretty sure the kid was Bernie Madoff's nephew.

That sounds like an awesome idea, but I don't think I'll be able to convince oblivious 14 year olds to do anything...

Insane_Zang, you could probably watch it for free on youtube, lol. @everyone, You don't have to organize it. Just help three people, and tell them, "Don't pay it back. Pay it forward. Help three more people, and tell them to do the same." It's something someone as young as 10 could do to a certain extent.

The problem is you've gotta help them in a big way, in a way they could never do themselves. It needs to be something they're really really grateful for, otherwise saying "now help 3 more people" would just make you look like a lunatic.
And the fact is if I had a big chance to help someone I would do it anyway. I can't think of anything big and significant I could do for anyone because if there was something I'd be doing it.

I think this is an awesome idea that I myself wanted to make a thread about it. I think instead of something that someone on the moon could not do alone, maybe just some favors. So it would make a chain of favors. I see that this project was never really started and thought we could do this as a team! It would be awesome!!! Hopefully we can "pay it forward"

It sounds like a good idea, but what Rabbit said is true (most of the time). But still, it could be a nice thing to do
