@Peter Giammanco Hey I have been using the platform for some time now.

For example, I've got well over 125,000 followers collectively among various platforms and there is a twitter account out there dedicated to spitting in my food lol.

Several are executives who aren’t interested in taking calls about not being able to get the TV to work or that there’s a snake in the dryer.These types are glad to pay the 25% and move along.But if you are wired in such a way that you like to get “down into the weeds” to squeeze out some of that 25%, self management is for you.But...it’s not really a 25% savings, as when you are self managing, you likely have 12-16% in overhead on the VRBO or ABNB platforms.  

Hopefully its a bookkeeping error you can fix, otherwise all you can really do is make sure its legit.   

I went through this with one of the platforms I just can't remember which one.  

I know there are crow funding platforms on the internet and that could possibly be a good source, but for a newbie like myself.. that might be a tough task. have you used other sources, like accountants, financial planners or other similar sources that one can work with to raise funds..

Legit question since I'm not sure about your local laws. 

One reason I built this platform would be to empower people to get the 1M folks to 8M and then see what they would create.

Seems legit.

Especially while meeting so many different people on a platform like BP?
