I'm SELLING EVERYTHING (house, & collections of books, art, records, cds, furniture, bicycles) to benefit Cure Cancer Starter. Sale starts Sunday June 2. Please tell your friends.
Not as far along as I wanted to be (lol), but here is the beginning of, as a good friend coined it, "Selling Out For Curing Cancer" sale will work: http://scenttrail.blogspot.com/2013/06/selling-out-to-help-cure-cancer.html

Cure Cancer Starter & Story of Cancer Foundation
There comes a point in every startup where you have to "burn the boats". You have to push all the chips into the middle of the table, go all in. That point for me is NOW.
I'm funding creation of CureCancerStarter.org (http://www.curecancerstarter.org ) with my Marketing Director Salary at Atlantic BT. Atlantic BT is helping by matching my investment. Cure Cancer Starter will be the first crowdfunding platform dedicated to cancer research, created by a cancer survivor (me) and working with great cancer research institutes (Duke, UNC, City of Hope, Roswell Park, University of Wisconsin Carbone & others soon).
The platform is FREE for cancer centers to use as my way of saying THANK YOU for saving my life (more than once). Free for cancer patients their friends and family to use as my way of saying thanks for being there for me.
As is always the case development costs are 2x what we thought so I need to raise some CASH. Tomorrow my SELL EVERYTHING sale starts. Will be selling my house and collections of books, records (the old fashioned kind), CDs, furniture, bicycles and anything and everything I own.
Time to go all in. You can help by letting your friends know about my SELLING EVERYTHING sale (live on Sunday June 2nd and house on market Monday June 3) and volunteering to help Cure Cancer Starter and the Tech Cures Cancer Movement (details tomorrow).
Wow, Marty you are the all in type of guy. Good luck - sell,sell,sell.
