Maybe it's me but I don't see folks funding a Porsche restoration. If you can't afford to restore it, wait until you can or sell it.

Punctuation would make you more believable.

Odd ... his garage link says his '88 turbo is black yet I am fairly certain the one in the picture is red ??

With only a small change I can rework 'GoFundMe' into what I'm thinking...just two letters...

Give me some of the profit from the sale, thanks.
What an idiot. I sometimes feel bad asking for advise. This guy wants free cash!

I tried but the minimum amount GoFuchMe will accept is $1.00. Too rich for my blood.

Utility Theory
Definition Economics concept that although it is impossible to measure the utility derived from a good or service, it is usually possible to rank the alternatives in their order of preference to the consumer. Since this choice is constrained by the price and the income of the consumer, the rational consumer will not spend money on an additional unit of good or service unless its marginal utility is at least equal to or greater than that of a unit of another good or service. Therefore, the price of a good or service is related to its marginal utility and the consumer will rank his or preferences accordingly. If I wanted to help my Dad, I would certainly do so, and I wish you well in that regard. But I work at it. Last edited by DanielDudley; 08-20-2015 at 01:44 PM.. |

I'm going to send money to this gofundme account when there is work that I am waiting to do on my own car (that really exists). Right. What's sad is how easy it was to recognize this as a scam.

Okay to be a dreamer, not okay to be a scammer...
