A while back I put out a plea asking people to help me pay off my mortgage. Okay, it wasn’t so much a plea as it was an experiment in social networking, but who’s keeping track.
Anyhow, I got a few people who donated. And by “a few” I mean “less than 3”. So, either the social experiment failed, or all you who use social networks like Facebook, LinkedIn, MySpace, and Twitter failed.
That’s right. You failed — miserably. You couldn’t even pay off my mortgage. What a bunch of losers.
Why do I say that? Take a look at this guy. He gets on the innerwebs and begs for a million dollars. Guess what, he gets it! Well, he’s getting it the beginning of next month at some gala event, but that’s just little details.
But you, may alleged “friends” (most of whom I’ve never met) can’t band together to pay off a measly mortgage? For shame.
I guess you could try to redeem yourselves… but here’s what you’ve got to do:
- Donate any amount that you’d like to help pay off my mortgage
- Tell all your friends on your social network of choice that you donated, and that if they don’t donate they’re not really your friend
(Hat tip to Mike Dopp for showing me the video… but he still hasn’t donated. Loser.)
