Call me a c00n... in another man's pockets or whatever, but tariq should have more than enough income to put up funds for whatever next future product or endeavor he is considering.

Hidden colors 1,2,3... it was fine he was getting off the ground, and I'm sure he needed some additional funds to fund the next product.

Now the man is on the verge of hustling his backers. Hell he not even sending out dvds on time, it took months for me to get hc4. Putting the movies in theatres a week before the DVD:deadrose: he has more than enough money to back whatever small new project he wants. We backed (me included ) his new social media app which I'm sure that outsourced garbage didn't cost a lot.

Considering tours, DVD, clothes,theatre releases , YouTube ads, rental streams etc the man has more than enough gwuop. He don't need us anymore imo:manny: .im not giving him a dime unless it's a profit sharing crowd fund.

OP is going to fukk up the next Mackish Package for everyone.
I have no problem with supporting the man's products but putting everything on Kickstarter when he's already established is corny.

Investing 101 is you never invest your own money. Well, at least to some degree.
I don't have a problem with anyone using crowd funding to initiate a project or invention.

But I wonder where the line is here.
When people typically give money to someone to make a film, they're considered an investor. And they get paid when the film is released.

But crowd funding projects like Kickstarter don't pay anyone back, far as I know. I could see how people might feel there's a bit of a con aspect to it.
It's complicated.

To be well off, you have to limit your exposure to fukkery. You can bet he puts in some of his own bread on everything, but the kickstarter investment keeps him from drawing
too far into his own well for projects folks proclaim to want anyway. It's good business to use other people's money, especially if you don't have to give up any ownership to do
so.

He's just doing what businessmen do:win:so yea, black business means sometimes you ain't gonna like what it takes to get the job done, but good business doesn't
care about your feelings:manny:

There are tons of investor crowd funding sites, tariq just don't want to do that. People gave him that idea for Moorus he made up excuses about it for obvious reasonings.

But the OP has no problem with white film producers crowd funding lol.


p.s. Who funds movies themselves?



I know a lot of the of the white posters hate on tariq....but i dont know what it is that makes the c00ns come out.

That's a good point the OP didn't mention. Tariq does put his own money up for his projects. HC1 was half-paid by kickstarter funds, the other half his own money.
