This doesn't make sense...3000 tickets sold, and the cost is $100 per ticket. Total revenue generated is $30k. I know some organizations that have similar programs, but their cash prize, or value is around the amount of revenue generated. They don't mind giving that away, as it is usually donated. Here there is a $40k disparity.... if it was legit, one guy should buy all 3k tickets, and walk away with $40k in profit.... am I missing something?

*Edit - $40k is a minimum I would walk away with. They are selling 12 tickets for 1k, and they also had advertised 20% off tickets when they did a sponsored post, so I would have walked away with a lot more than that.

Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.
