Crowdfunding

Some weeks ago, I read an article about crowdfunding and I saw several websites offering this sistem. It seems to be interesting, when you need something special and have the option to get help through crowdfunding, where other persons might help you. But, it's not only to request help. You also can help others to reach what they need. Until now, I haven't used it yet. Someone has got experience with it?

I am not familiar with this crowdfunding.... it is a good idea though, but I hope it is legit.

It is legit. You expose your project and any person is free to decide if he or she helps you. Sometimes, depending of the help or the value you need, there might be only one or several persons who helps you, alfways if they are interested in your project. You only will get your payout if you reach the limit you exposed as needed. Sometimes, there is a counterpart. For example, if you want to publish a book on your own but you don't have the money to do so, you expose your idea. If you get it financed through crowdfunding, you send a book to each who helped you, once you get it published.

@Meramar Oh. Then that's good to know that. It is a way to encourage those who had nothing to start but with full of ideas. Thanks for the information.

@rachz_kisses There are always people with ideas, but without the economy to realize them and then there are those who can help to realize the ideas. Of course, we have to be careful, but I listened that some persons already used it and got the help they needed.

You have to be very careful with things like that. I wouldn't do it.

Of course, there's a risk involved.
