Exciting Update on 80-20 SELF project

See latest news on 80-20 Self Empowerment Longterm Fund, SELF. Money talks. This fund aims to make your political voice heard.    The Good News:   1) Total donation received: $438,399 (See the top of the webpage. Please click here .)   2) The biggest donation: $120,000. See near the top of the wepage,       under Honorary Founders;   3) Many donors sent money in early: Several donors have sent in all       5 yrs. of their commitments. In the 3rd column a notation like “Confirmed       5” means 80-20 has received all 5 years of a donor’s commitment;   4) Many supporters donated ADDITIONAL money beyond their annual       commitments. See “plus $xxx” in the 2nd column; and   5) Received matching gifts from 18 large companies matching       the donations of their employees to 80-20 EF. See words in green.               Transparency Achieved, Accountability Next!    We’ve achieved transparency. That is, YOU now know (a) how much money 80-20 has raised, & (2) who donated them. Accountability is our next goal. 80-20 will soon hold an election for a “Board of Donors” to monitor the money. ANY donor who has donated at least $50 to SELF may run for a Board position and vote. Details will be provided in a separate email.    The Bad news:    It is that SELF should have raised $304,000/year for 5 years by now, but we’ve only raised $255,000/yr for 5 years. $50,000/year behind schedule!    NOTE: When SELF succeeds, 80-20 will serve you for decades. You and your family will receive benefits that is many times the value of your donation. If 80-20 doesn’t achieve its goal, you’ll get your money back in FULL, although 80-20 will probably go out of existence! Recall that the money is in an escrow account. Not a penny of $438,399 has been spent.    Pitch in for such a GREAT common cause! YES, 80-20 may be a fool to embark upon this BIG projects. Is it also true that foolhardy persons help realize impossible dreams? Will you be a fool with us? Help establish a strong & lasting political voice.    To donate, click here. S. B.
