    Default Crowdfund Salaries

    I know I'm not the only one who feels research moves slowly.

    You geel like lauster and cots aren't out there everyday making progress.

    Crowdfund a company.

    Pay these guys (or other substitutable subjects). To work their asses off everyday and make real progress.

    There has been some talk about it, but it seems that it's not going to happen. People just want the cure handed to them and not do anything about it.

    I think the only way it will work is if Joe from Staten Island is the poster child of the event. He would be great publicity and it would work IMO. If only he wasn't such a coward and show his face.

    Please refrain from posting LIES. There has already been WORK done, not talk. You guys have just yet to see the progress as we're keeping things under wraps for now.

    Okay, my apologies, but since nothing has come up, you can see why I would say that.

    Who is this "Joe from Staten Island"? I've seen him mentioned here a few times lately.

    He is the guy who has been on the show for over 10 years, he usually gives out the news and latest finds. Everyone knows him and because of his story, I personally think he would bring a lot of attention. Actually, I might call in tomorrow and talk to him about this and also about the derma rolling. Or has someone already called recently regarding this? I have not seen the show in over a month.

    I appreciate the crowdfund idea but I think your hopes of raising large sums of money are unrealistic. Unless you can get a big respected name or company to support the effort or have something really tangible to show potential donors you aren't going to raise much money. I know that for me personally I'm not going to donate any money to a crowdfunding operation without a clear concise plan to achieve results or a prototype of some kind, all I've heard so far is an attempt to raise money to start some theoretical company or fund any number of future treatments with no real focus or concise plan. Say you do raise millions of dollars, what treatment will be the focus of the money, how will it be managed?

    I think if it was done right, with full support from the company and a lot of planning and organizing, it could raise several million dollars, especially if it was marketed as a hair loss cure, I can see lots of rich middle-aged guys chipping in if the rewards were good.

    What would it be for though? Cosmo's CB? Histogen's HSC? Aderan's Ji Gami? Replicel? Follica?
