Subject: Which company or individual can sponsor me on a summer trip to Europe?


Hi all,

I wish to go on a Summer trip to Europe (flight to Istanbul and then taking
trains) where I:

1. Eat good food and drinks.

2. Have a good company of people I know from Freenode or other social media
outlets, as well as people I just met.

3. Have clean, creative, fun.

At age 37 (I'm 1977 born) I want to start living a little.

For this I need the sponsorship of a company or individual. What I will
give in exchange is:

1. Being proud to be sponsored by the company and speaking its praise.

2. Donate some of the revenues from my activities, such as Stand-up
philosophy ( https://plus.google.com/+ShlomiFish/posts/GUpTuA6641x ),
revenues from screenplays and stories, donations, paid invitations, etc.
back to the sponsor.

3. Contribute to the company's social media presence.



For now I think I'll need between 200,000 USD and 500,000 USD, as well as
finding a paid escort/guide. It's also first-come-first-served.

If you or your company can do that, please contact me via E-mail at
shlo...@shlomifish.org or GChat/GTalk/GoogleHangouts at shlo...@gmail.com .

For more information, see my essay and links:

This took an unexpected turn as it progressed.

Regards and thanks,

Hey,

Maybe you should try crowd funding.

And please update us on the progress.

Kind regards,

I guess I could try that. You can donate me money using PayPal:

http://www.shlomifish.org/meta/donate/

Even a little will be appreciated, but so far I received very little in PayPal
donations (and PayPal limits the PayPal donate button to .us-accepted
non-profits due to American Law braindamage[France]). So do me a
favour and donate now.

I should note that if one company is the sponsor, it has more effect than just
thousands of contributors, but I'm open to suggestions.

[France] - from what I understood French laws allows commercial companies to
accept donations, like it should be. Bandcamp
( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandcamp ) circumvents this problem by allowing
people to pay as much as they want beyond a certain price for a download. Like
the film https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jurassic_Park_%28film%29 says «Life will
always find a way».

I do think American Law and the law systems of most other countries are too
complicated and political and they can be simplified to a large extent.
Nevertheless, I'm no longer a fanatical libertarian, and think that welfare
laws may be a good thing in moderation, and that the government can often
encourage industry and enterpreneurship (e.g: the defense industry). I still
would like to see a low and flat income tax (e.g: 30% of the earned money above
the minimum wage), full drugs, prostitution, and gambling legalisation,
abolishing the Israeli constitutional discrimination, and gradually making the
Israeli Defence Force (IDF) completely voluntary. But I'm going to try to
convince people, including the lawmakers and the religious leaders of what I
think, rather than be a rebel without a clue.

A certain anti-Israeli person told me on IRC that he can solve the problems of
the Middle East in 20 minutes - by dropping an atomic bomb on Israel. I don't
support dropping an atomic bomb anywhere in Iran, because I'm almost sure that
the Iranian bubble is very quickly expanding and that their religious leaders
are both more rational and moral/ethical now, and less willing to get themselves
in trouble by trying to drop an atomic bomb anywhere in Israel. We shouldn't
rest on our laurels naturally, but if we continue to struggle, I think
that Israel and most of the Middle East can survive and prosper. 

 And please update us on the progress.
 

I will, sure.

Regards,

Shlomi Fish
