I think you'll continue to see the marketplaces lay people off and shift their business model to larger deals which require institutional capital.  

Hey, my partner and I are shifting our focus to a new market right now.

The experiment is to see 1) if I want to shift my focus and do this full time. 2) Does it have value for people, can I create software that myself and others can to help this process 3) should build a company around it 4) I want to work with other big picture, like-minded people!!!!

My firehouse buddies and I used to go around saying that to each other at least a dozen times each shift.

I am interested but working this time (shift worker).

I’m seeking help to streamline all the information I’ve gathered into a process that will work for me.

This protects you in a market shift for the worst.Hope this helps, Good luck on your investment

@Bryan Hancock I think you have a great idea here on your portal amid the shifting sands in the crowdfunding industry. 

I should clarify though, I do have a second shift job in a restaurant that I can definitely live on while getting settled.

But for more than that it shifts to another part of FHA.
