I have no bills, mortgage, rent, or car payment so ever since VR stopped I've had to be a little more careful not to bite off more than I can chew!

Don't think so. He wrote like a million times that he doesn't expect it to go through.

1. Many people were turned off from donating because he asked for $25K to cover positioning flights, hotels, etc. when the flight only costs $20-21K.
2. Had the goal been closer in reach it would be more likely for some people to kick in the last bit.

Was never in doubt. 
Any big blogger could do it, but it takes serious cojones to go after your readership for donations for something like that.
Huh  ;)

He stopped pushing it due to the negative backlash. Had he pushed he could've gotten it, but the cost of the backlash obviously must have outweighed his desire to fly in a residence for 7 hours.
