How Many People Will Donate, Dec 16/07!

Well the way this is going we could double Nov5. That means around 75,000
and if you drive the average up to $150.00 you get just over 11 million dollars.

WOW!!!

1.5x the # who sign up. Avg of just under $100. So at the current level of signups we don't match Nov5.

Actually, there were about 39,000 donors on November 5th, with only 18,500 pledges. Using those numbers, we can expect 2.1 times the # that have signed up.

Plus, we've still got over 20 days to get more pledges.

People keep pointing to the nov5 ratio, but I don't believe an identical ratio can be expected. I think that the attention of the nov5 bomb combined with the immediate organization of dec16 means that a higher percentage of those who will donate will be 'officially' signed up.

Among those of us that have been donating and are going to donate we're going to have to go out and get family and friends to donate as well. If everyone of us that donated Nov. 5th did this we might just get close to 8, 9, maybe 10 million.

I'm donating to the 16th moneybomb, since I will get paid right before then and this coming paycheck is already tied up (but I'll definitely toss in another $25).

Let's not start counting eggs before they are in the basket, folks. The time we spend speculating as to what we could raise on the day due to this factor and that one is time that could be better spent spreading the word and making it happen. :)
