Some of you had contacted me privately regarding the opportunity to get the Gothic Chess Federation moving. As you know, pieces already have been produced, but getting people to quit their day jobs in this economy has not become a reality.

I had put some numbers together concerning raising private capital (banks give you a nice low rate, but they want your house as backup. Venture Capitalists give you lots of money and collect lots of interest, and they want the rights to the company. I am offerening very high dividends and "votership" in the enterprise, a great middle ground) and these conservative estimates are posted online at:

Investor Inquiries for those of you who are interested.

I have been committed to Gothic Chess since 1998, and I left my full time job in 2001 to make this a reality. Basically, if everyone on BrainKing gave as little as $500, we could start this as an international enterprise tomorrow!

Feel free to read it and offer any comments. For those who have $1000 or more to invest, think about what the stock market could deliver, versus the 20 times investment dividend you could have over the course of the 6-year investment tenure.
