I hate that we’re now heading right back into the murky waters of illegal payments
I actually grew to enjoy the last couple years where everyone was playing the same game legally and it just came down to how much you could fundraise. Now we’ll be back to needing to illegally supplement the legal $20M in order to truly compete at the highest level. I always hated having that cloud hanging over everything, worrying that it could ll blow up on your program at any time if you get caught.

When something is happening, young people like to say it’s “lit.”
