I have been here for almost 15 years. In that time period there have been many threads like this one. They all have basically the same pitch and I am not aware of any of them actually resulting in any form of collaboration. Most people with the skills want to be compensated in the short term for a variety of reasons. Many of us are now retired and do not have a long time horizon where we can afford to take on additional financial risk. When starting an enterprise, you want to do it with people you know and trust. At least that is the way I've always done it. Sure, you can throw stones at me and the others with a skeptical viewpoint, but we may actually be doing the TS a huge favor by exposing critical flaws in his plan. I can tell you, as an entrepreneur, it is far better to find the flaws in your plan on the front end than on the back end after you've burned through a couple million in venture capital funds. You revise and strengthen the plan or you chuck it and move on.

There should be a website that exists on a Venn diagram at the convergence of goFundMe, upwork/fiverr, and kickstarter, where bored experienced professionals go to donate their time instead of donating money. Who wants to make this website for me?

Having “helped” folks attain their goals and then getting screwed when there‘s money involved... funny how folks value professional help. I’ve got examples... this was an incomplete thought then I got in the checkout. Thanksgiving ready.

Hey help site I like the idea isn’t that what this forum for?

To be ignored,
To be warned,
To be banned temporarily,
To be banned permanently.

Examples of all have happened since 2006.

PS-- I kinda think this thread has been hijacked from the TS
LOL, I love a good spanking when TS does understand his questions yet still forges on in the trenches, while digging himself deeper finding himself sinking slowly.

Basically demonstrating the stages of grief for even asking, really love this video of it. Apology now for those with thin skins.

This thread will be kept locked, because the TS didn't reply a several days and more post out of topic.
