Tony Horton Announcement - Page 3

blah, i'd be interested in what he has to offer but like others have said, the raffle is less favorable than a presale. i'm not paying that much to have a high, almost guaranteed chance of losing. kickstarter was mentioned in the youtube comments and that makes way more sense.

Cathe and KCM do pre-sales all the time without being tacky!

They could also hire Greg Twombly to produce it!

Agreed! I lasted a few minutes. The self-indulgence was over the top.

I think he has money. I follow him on FB. His house is super nice. Great location. He has a bunch of people he works out with (I'm sure it's not free to workout with him). I understand that at this time money is not coming as fast as it was before Covid. He should have saved some for rainy day. I don't see him hurting. He needs to find some company to back him up. His name alone should get a lot of them interested.

Like a lot of you, I didn't get very far into the video - I looked at the bottom to see how long it was and had the "are you kidding me?" reaction.

Did he talk about the actual program he's planning, at all? Anyone want to summarize? Do ya think maybe he could put out a "less Tony" version of the announcement?

Why invest his own money with the possibility of failing when he can use your money and not have to pay it back? Even if it does fail? Sounds very shrewd to me.

There are tons of FCC rules on holding raffles on the Internet. I hope he has done his research.
