Weekly medical crowdfunding raffle

[RU_Kedding_Mea]

To explain the title, I am holding a weekly raffle for various items as a way to help pay for my medical and pharmacy bills. I have been hit hard and need to find a way to bring in some much needed funds. What I will be doing is putting an item up for raffle with its value for comparison on entry purchases.

Each raffle will end on Fridays at 23:00 PST. Winner will be notified over the weekend by post in this thread as well as PM to confirm shipping details. If you are outside the US please PM before you post any entries so we can make sure I know how to send it (never shipped outside US) and the costs.

There must be a minimum of 50 entries for any raffle to be valid. If enough entries are not received by the deadline, either the entry fees will be returned or the raffle will be extended another week; decided on by each participant. If there are more than 50 entries 5% will go to the CSC holders which I will give to Rdyoung for distribution.

Post your entry amount with TXID in this post or PM if you rather not post here.

This address will be used for all raffles 1LHRLdm4wvwCLrqrT7DM3EmPQAvFddnqx9

If there are any questions or suggestions PM to make sure I see it.

This being said, here is the first item up for bid

1/10 oz (aprox 3g) .999 Silver ingot, front and back side view (there is only 1) est. value $3 and 1oz .999 Silver round, front and back, est. value $19

Bumpity bump bump

[RU_Kedding_Mea]

Thank ye sir. I am curious though why you chose an even $ amount, but an 8.45 ticket entry? You just want to see how alert I am on my meds eh. Also when you do send (could you make it an even 8 or 9 entries, lol @.004/.0045) post TXID so I can keep track of who has how many of what.

[lothendriel]

Ok. .0045 sent for 9 entries

Did not know it would take all the small amounts.

Never mind it just confirmed.

[RU_Kedding_Mea]

Might be right Daffy. We have 19 entries, 81 to go. 10 people at 10 entries does not seem like a lot, but looking at it with needing 100 people with 1 entry sounds harder, lol

I am open to suggestions for drawing more interest if anyone has any.

[cyberdexter]

100 entries might be a high aim for the first raffle.

I'll jump into it in the morning. in bed already

[RU_Kedding_Mea]

Ok now, check the OP for editing. I have added another 1oz silver round and changed the raffle entries to .005@ needing only 50 to complete the raffle. For daffy and loth, I can either return your BTC or credit it as 1 entry.

[lothendriel]

Credit me as one entry please

[RU_Kedding_Mea]

Let's go people...only 2 entries out of 50. Everyone likes silver and if you do not, you have not been watching the economy slowly slip into oblivion

[lothendriel]

You might want to get on the Slack channel and advert this post there as well. I will buy more entries when I can. I have my ■■■■ split so many ways it's not even funny

[RU_Kedding_Mea]

Do not know what slack channel is. I know what ya mean by split all over, just saw the DMT coin asset and wanted to get some ,but I am having hard enough time remembering where all the investments I already have are, much less what they are doing I am thinking maybe so many micro investments aren't so good. My biggest is in GHX though so I feel safe, thanx guys

[Dave_Wills]

For what it's worth, I think there may be a little confusion it's hard to get a grasp at what going on here.
1. Who pays for shipping?
2. Is it a raffle or is it bidding?
3. How many coins? OP says one thing, the thread says something else??
4. Cost of "raffle" OP says .005ea but there is a post in the thread stating .0045 for 9 entries??
5. The thread states multiple entries were purchased. But the later post states only 2 entries of 50? have been purchased.
These could be some of the reasons raffle is going slow

Not to be judgmental but here is a couple other concerns!
You state in the OP that you are doing this for medical bills etc, fair enough I am a giving man just ask many here can vouch for me, I also am a huge Sean's Outpost Supporter. and have gifted tens of thousands over the years to individuals and needy families and churches etc.
But I see your recent post about wanting to get some DMT coin, and having a hard enough time "remembering where ALL your investments are". This doesn't sound like a person that needs to be investing more if you are having trouble paying your medical bills? I do not see the logic in that kind of philosophy.

[RU_Kedding_Mea]

I will answer the questions first. The OP was edited after some of the thread posts. The first couple posts were buying entries at .0005 when there was only the 1/10 ingot posted and there was a needed total of 100 entries to cover costs and profit for meds. The OP was then updated with adding the 1oz silver round and increasing the entry cost to .005 needing only 50 entries to recover costs and profit. So for simplicity sake, stick with the op and ignore the thread posts i guess, lol (EDIT: I cover shipping, again if outside the US pm me first, and it is not bidding, it is per entry @.005)

Now to answer your concern about ALL my investments. First, would you not agree we all invest what we can when we can to hopefully provide a "nest egg" or emergency funds in the future? I would be an idiot if I did not think about the future and the financial support of my wife if say my medical issues go really south. So yes, I do not remember them off the top of my head, and forget sometimes what/where they are. I do keep a journal on USB in a Faraday box so my wife will always have them listed and the access/logins, whether I remember them or not So because I have a $1 here $10 there, again my biggest is in GHX at a few hundred (bought with what I could salvage from...that place we shall not name) which was bought with money received from school hoping that it would set up my wife for life...we all got bent over in that one. So yes now I am rather broke, with minimal investments making any money. Not sure your holdings but you can imagine if GHX is my biggest investment and it is only paying me .006 a day, you can imagine the rest aren't paying crap. So when I say I would like to have some DMT but do not have the money...it is because I do not have the money, what I can salvage pays bills and if there is left over I see if there is a good place to invest it that will help make a difference. Scrypt was something I had hope in, but alas I had to do dump too because of advice here and needed income. Ever since that Q##@%#%&$ hashlet joke, I have no idea who to trust or where a safe place to put what little I do have so my wife won't have to worry if I poof.
I am going now, not your fault...I harbor no ill will, meds make me cranky when nauseous.

Due to lack of interest so far, I can return the current entries or extend the raffle till next Fri 29. This is up to the Loth and Daffy who can choose retrun, at which time I will end the raffle.

[lothendriel]

I am still all for it. If you can keep it going and get more hits then do it. If it doesn't pan out then keep what I sent.

[RU_Kedding_Mea]

Raffle is good till next fri 29. If by that time there is not enough interest. I will be withdrawing the weekly raffle. Silver and gold is pretty much all I have that is of value to anyone else. Thank you Loth for the kind gesture.

[lothendriel]

Put me down for another 4 entries (i think it's 4 lol). Here's the TX:
