Chipin Matching Challenge: I’ll lead the way.
Imagine each of us donated $5 to each of the remaining chipins. Right now there are approximately 20 chipins on ronpaulgraphs.com that are unfinished. At $5 apiece, each of us would be donating $100.
We could go a long way to finishing these important projects. The upside of finishing these projects quickly is fairly simple: More meetup groups will be encouraged to think of creative ways to promote Ron Paul. Then we'll have a whole new round of chipins to consider. You watch, once we finish these off, dozens more worthy projects will be born.
Here's where you come in:
I'm looking to hear from at least 10 of you, giving me strong words of motivation for this effort. These bumps will ensure this idea gets enough looks to make this work. Pledging to join me is ideal, but hey some of us are way very broke, so at this point I just want some words of encouragement. Once I get my 10 positive postings (or pledges), I'll donate $5 bucks to every remaining chipin. And of course I'll be posting the confirmations to prove my salt (see below).
Then it’ll be your turn. Once I get 10 people to match what I've done ($100 worth of chipin confirmations), I'll INCREASE the bar.
For round 2, I'll then donate $7.50 per chipin (or $150 total). If 10 people match that, then we’ll move to round three.
For round three, just as before, I’ll show my 20 confirmations. But this time it’ll be at $10 per chipin (or $200 total).
I’ll go as many rounds as you guys can handle (okay I do have theoretical limit, but I doubt you’ll hit it!) And by the way, it doesn’t have to be the same people donating in each round.
Yes, I know pulling out the credit card 20 times is difficult, but hey I know it'll be rewarding to help 20 separate Ron Paul different projects. (if you want to cheat and save time by giving the total all to one chip in, I’ll count that … but please have a good reason as I want to treat all chipins equally)
So let's hear the encouragement and let's see how far we get!
Just to show I'm serious, here is confirmation #1 (of 25):
