You wrote if 20 people donate the jackpot will be at $200 . I'm confused.
It's not written so clearly, but OP meant that if an additional 20 people after the initial 10 give money, the jackpot will raise to $200.

-1 because the previous line said 11 people pot will be $105. According to your reasoning it should say $155

$100 for first 10 people. after that, each additional person raises it $5. If 20 additional people join, it'll be $200. I understand it wasn't written clearly, but I'm pretty sure this is what the OP meant.

I know what the OP meant, I'm just saying what he wrote was not "not written clearly" it was written incorrectly.  Whatever, who cares

Not me. As long as everyone knows what the OP meant, it's all good.

Great investment.

Tzedakah is a great investment.

Adding more because the pots getting bigger is a nice risk.
