>Dude out your kickstarter as a scam on a Cambodian Noodleslurping Discovery board

How about no my man?

Ive always wondered how you handle the money tax wise if you dont have a business.

Any time I look it up, it seems like its still a pretty grey area.

>>1621762
it's considered income, so it is taxes as such unfortunately

>>1621753
there would be no proof that its yours, so the project would be safe

>>1621788
But can you make that much income without having to file as a business? Its not like they give you a W-2, and its definitely too much to be considered a hobby (payroll taxes start at $300)

Bump for interest

Because Patreon is literally that without the effort

>>1621741
Because people like to have decency and to live in a trust based society so if they have another idea they love they can share it with their customers and everybody can be better off I mean for fucks sake learn to be a decent human being

>>1623646
How is Patreon not the same amount of effort?

Arguably it's MORE effort because you have to continually trick people rather than being a one-off

You're on the wrong board

This.

I love how the vidya-game let's play bullshit still works how it has for years with only a few changes
> get a few retards to follow you on twitch by targetting a niche game without much popular representation to normies, like dwarf fortress or other autismo-tier game
> attract more retards that are fans of the game, /v/ and /vg/ on any chan being great recruiting points
> use said retards to snowball into more of their retard hype-beast friends by offering free shit or child-tier rewards like a mention or some cheap gamer shit on your stream

if you play your cards right to this point, you should have a couple hundred twitch followers (not hard to do with some effort) and you're ready to start the Patraeon

> now you start offering the most addicting thing out there for autismo audiences: gambling
> have them buy in for raffles from your channel
> just make sure you aim low for the first few, offer some cheap $50 gaming headsets or such for a $5 raffle buy in
> first few times you lose some money, but still make back usually half or more of the cost
> repeat these until you start making a small profit off of these """"donation"""" raffles, all while expanding your stream to other games, preferably with niche crowds to draw in more of the unloved masses
> now you have growing numbers of viewers, hopefully subscribers, and most important of all: Jewish teenagers who like to spend money on the internet buying into your raffles that start offering progressively nicer things

And that's the point I'm at now, running with a 4 days a week schedule of streaming, blocked out in my schedule just like I have work and university. Probably making ~$300 a week in extra income right now from patreon donations to ""keep the show running"" and then spikes of a couple hundred dollars now that I have a few dozen consistent buy-ins with every raffle that I host.

Only capital investment was for a good computer, connection, etc. and the donations pay it
