You can now purchase e$ through a link at the top of the page!
If anything, this gives the e$ you have immediate value.
So the foremost question will be...
Can I sell e$ and undercut your prices?
And so far my answer is YES! But, please keep in mind this is a fund raising attempt to collect donations to help pay for site upkeep and development.
If you want to try to sell your e$ please open an auction or a fixed price post in the e$ Incentives section. |

I'm going to put half of all real dollars collected selling e$ towards the monthly prize. Maybe that'll sweeten the pot.
So far the monthly prize is still $50. Any new money will be split between the 3 spots. I'll keep this thread updated with any sales news.  |

| What can you use the money for on the website? Can you add the hold, short trading options? How long would that take? |

Nothing is in stone, but options may be next on the agenda.
Donations will not be accepted for anything particular, but will help us with development and advertising as we keep moving ahead.  |

Wow, now your talking Thats cool
You know what would also be cool and kind of a psyche? Put up one of those paypal donate buttons that shows how much has been donated and underneath it you can tell everyone about the 50% going back to the top 3 monthly portfolio winners and maybe as the funding grows you could really get interest up with the top 10 winning portfolios starting at 10 for last place and a 100 for first. Then new members would see it right away and would be more likely purchase the e$ with a better chance to win and maybe some regular members would donate for the site and a better chance to win (I don't know, just some ideas as this is new and interesting).
I know that is a lot a moola (will probably be awhile before it gets that high) but, could be a neat incentive to purchase.
You could set up the goal amount each month to meet that amount and if it met it then the top ten would win at the payscale or something.....  |
