great intention. terrible money management

Now they are in $20,000 of debt trying to sell melting ice cream online. Well, I guess the transferred the problem.

^+ about 25% interest. Cash advances on credit cards are not cheap.

Oh... they didn't use THEIR credit cards.

it's just money people. some things have greater value

Some human value, but Hercules seemed to sell mostly junk food and alcohol, so it's not going to benefit anyone except him in a big way.

$10 says this is an attempt by blankfist to show an example of altruism and charity necessary for a libertarian utopia.

so dumb

A good deed is a good deed.

That WAS a great selection of beer! Did I really see Duvel and some Belgian Trappist beers in there??

Did you notice how sneaky Sneaky was?

If you check out the website you will see that they are selling non-perishables from the store as art in plastic display boxes, at prices that are absurd for the non-artsy components.

This appears to have been spearheaded by the one-red-paperclip guy, and a few other hipster artists using very much the same notoriety = value trick that got him a house.

The video is clearly a significant part of their PR scheme to make back the money. I would be interested to see their accounting at the end of this little adventure.

They will come out on the losing end, That is my call.

What happens next month?

Did you loose your mind while trying to think of one?

Cynicism.

I feel like loosing some arrows into this loose caboose of a thread about to lose its way.

Umm, so the guy's store doesn't make ends meet anyway?

I can appreciate the fleeting heartwarmth this provides but this falls firmly in to the 'give a man a fish/teach a man to fish' category for me.

I love that one of the first things they bought was Duvel.

This wasn't uplifting. It was more like being slightly pushed to one side, up a slight incline, by someone wearing a clown mask.
