I don't understand why everything has to be fastlane, or that it's bad that someone would pay $10 for a laugh and possibly some potato salad.
Imagine that guy looking back at this as well as all of the backers. What an awesome story!
Gotta have some laughs and joy and fun in life.
People like to drink. It's counterproductive to pretty much every activity. But people enjoy it, so they continue to do it. I don't drink, never have and never will, but I can understand why someone would do it even if I never have. It's the same thing.
You are right, not everything has to be fastlane. I also agree that the guy running the kickstarter took the proceeds and went in an unexpectedly (to me) nice direction. He is delivering more than he promised on his kickstarter page, right? I will admit I did not expect his kickstarter to turn out this well, or for him to turn it into a charity.
Obviously, we will both agree that people are free to spend their money as they will. However, I am still confused why they would pay for something they will likely not be able to collect on when there are other projects on kickstarter that promise something tangible for $10.
I like beer. If I saw something related to beer on kickstarter I would likely throw money at it.
If a guy made a kickstarter saying, "I am going to make beer." I would give him a thumbs-up but not $10.
I know: I am a scrooge, a miser, and I suck. But I still have my $10.
Last thing: I wish the gentleman running the charity all the best, and I wish I could market & organize even half as well as he can.
