Donate Info (2024-12-31)

If you like my work, you can give me money.

But please do not give if:

You think your net worth in the next 5 years will be under $500k. You may need the cash more than I do.
You got most of your money in shady ways. That still counts even if I never find out how you made it.

Under $1000

For less than $1000, I only take Monero (XMR) from secret donors.

My XMR address:

446uMYQvFeN5kmwC4TKs4h9BLTbDmXD9ECTTpe5NfnXKby7XSeY876LMpSryKMLFBAYLYWumrxdftLcqnp2F1CSQMHrHpPb

Why secret?
I do not want to risk my name being tied to yours unless I do a check. For small sums, I do not have time or wish to do that.

How to send XMR?

After you send, please do not tell me. That keeps your gift hidden.
You can buy XMR by first buying BTC via bank transfer, then swap BTC for XMR.
If this seems hard, find a friend who can do it for you. You can pay them a small fee.
Learning these steps can be fun and useful later.

$1000 to $500k

You can still use my XMR address. But I can also accept wire (SWIFT), PayPal/Stripe, or even US stock.

If you want me to list your name on my site, I can, but I will need to do a check first.

Email me to find the best way to give. If you want a 1-hour call before you decide, you can email me too.

Above $500k

First give me $500k. Then give me a few weeks to handle the legal steps. After that, you can send more.

Email me so we can figure it out.

If you are a top leader or big-money figure, I am eager to build ties. We can keep our own choice power. Or we can share choice power, and then we both may need to compromise.

What Happens After You Give

I can use your gift for any goal. If I use it all for fun, I am not doing wrong. Of course, I will try not to waste it, but I make no binding promise.

A total gift of $500k would change my life. I could then get an EU pass or a faster US green card. If I live in the US (maybe in SF), I can meet new partners and guides, and speak more freely. I do not want a visa that lets others limit my life.

Small gifts will not change my life much, but they do cheer me up. They let me say I get paid for my work, not that I am jobless.

I am not stuck without your help. I live in India for about $200 per month (about $2500 per year). I can keep this up for some years with my own savings.
