1) Service means money - you can provide any kind of service for a fee

2) Loan money to friends or family members - 10 to 15% interest per month

3) sell anythings- sure earn money

4) intro anyone to rent, buy, sell properties - earn a fee

Easy say then done. How and where to find that?? If everyone can provide the services, who are the one using it??

They usually loan money at 10% a week in Hanoi, or loan gold to people at 10% - makes more profit with gold value. Usually there is a minimum time, with a minimum value to pay, even if the money is back the next day. It is rampant, and many Vietnamese who have a bit money rent some people to find customers and make loan for them.

A lot of people are in this business at present time, and they quickly become very rich.

To open a shop, or for a surgery - you can find many people with small paper books just outside of the hospitals in Hanoi, sometimes in the large waiting halls. They are here for that business, check the hospital bill, get the original ID papers, check the papers, if the people have family, house, relatives, childs, and here is the money. Got a maid once in that scheme, and they would come to threaten her underage childs every day.

Many motorbike accidents too in Hanoi happen to people who are a couple days late to pay the interest - interests are collected weekly. sometimes daily in the market or with the taxi. Stay long enough in Hanoi, it's very rare that close to the taxi parking places like the Hilton there are not taxi drivers paying to a man in motorbike some hundreds thousands VND. That's the interests. Getting a loan from a bank in Vietnam is exceedingly difficult, and never for the full amount on any given project, so money loaners have a lot of opportunities.

A taxi driver who wants to be allowed to work needs to pay a fee to his future colleagues to be properly introduced to the boss. Usually 5-10.000USD for the higher grade companies to get that job. It makes a pyramid income scheme, money loaners, then this new taxi driver himself will get money when a new taxi driver wants to join. A couple of years ago, crew members would pay 20-50.000 USD to be allowed to join Vietnam Airlines. Of course, only a money loaner with high interest can loan that money, not a bank.

10% per week, i.e. 521% rate of return per annum! Only worry is the return of capital.

I also felt the same thing.... Seeing so many people slogging for life, so such things dun easily happened. Maybe I am a NUTZ for biz opportunity.

Bro SingViet, doing business definitely not simple. Earning extra money every month besides full time work is quite easy. We are not talking making alot of money but some extra.

Example:

1) Help to clean house and wash clothes for neighbours.
2) Intro workers to work
3) Help out in night market or stores.
etc.

I guess to save all the trouble, the best is to register for ROM in sillypore and married here. As for customary, do it in vn

"...customers looking for Vietnamese wives pay the website 35,000 Yuan (US$51,300) for the marriage, which includes the brokerage fee, the costs of a wedding party in Vietnam, wedding cars, photos, videos and health check-ups for both sides before marriage. The fee also pays for passports and visas for the brides and payment to the Vietnamese matchmaker.

The husband pays his own travel and must also buy gifts for his new inlaws. The gitfs are usually given in cash between $150-1,200.."

This is truly a rip-off...go yourself many times also dun need to pay so much...what the bull shit...

35000 Yuan is only SGD $7000 right? Where got US$51,300? Unless they are talking about 350,000 Yuan or SGD$70,000. I think SGD$70,000 to buy a viet wife is pure stupidity.

How much to get a viet wife in Singapore through a marriage agency? SGD$7000?

Under one of the clause, they ask "have you do any kind of marriage (e.g. customary and etc) prior to ROM". Unless you are preparing to do a fake oath, you can tick No, if you have done you customary 1st in VN then ROM in Singapore.

Well for me, I ROM in Singapore 1st, then do my customary ceremony in VN, I guessed that's to avoid future trouble and etc ....Like what Bro Kangtuo said earlier when replying you. The clause of making a fake declaration is an offence.

You may want to plan this carefully with you BX-to-be.
