Lincoln, in all sincerity, that is a mightily unhealthy attitude. |

Not really. The fact that I would gladly martyr myself to ensure that so many others could enjoy their lives, and that their children and their children's children could enjoy their lives, and so many future generations coyld likewise enjoy their existance without having to put up with the absolute shit show that seems to following your lineage is perfectly healthy. In fact, If Cityhall made the offer to exile your lineage for all time on condition that mine was likewise exiled, I'd joyfully join you in purgatory. |

If thats what it sounds like to you, then fine, whatever keeps you warm at night. Alas, I shall not be quiet, not sure what you mean about a tgread, but I am free to voice my opinion in the streets just like anyone else. If I choose to do it here, there's really not a lot you can do about it. And yes, you are a made man, as am I, so what? What bearing does that have on anything? I haven't threatened you, merely voiced my opinion, I haven't even wished that you were dead. And finalky, for now, I don't hate you, I have never hated you, hatred calls for the waste of too much energy, and is ultimately self destructive. No, the emotion I most associate with you lineage is pity. Pity at your self delusion, pity that you only seem to derive meaning from denigrating others and making them miserable, and pity that so many gpod and decent people are sickened and bored with your presence. Yep, thats about it, I pity you, and I even forgive you. I forgive you for the fact that you are only happy when you make others sad. |

Thank you. I believe I make more people happy than sad. Does your conscious bother you, tell the truth? |

I believe you are incorrect in your assessment and deluding yourself as normal. And why would my conscience bother me? I'm not a killer, I'm a defence Attorney, in fact its my raison d'être to set people free. I sleep perfectly fine. |

Why would City Hall, the entity responsible for printing all of the money, want another $500m to add to their limitless piles of money? That doesn't sound like a good cause to me. I think a good cause would either be helping out someone less fortunate or someone particularly disadvantaged, such as a semi-literate psuedo medical professional/satanist perhaps. After that, I would think something that everyone could enjoy would constitute a good cause. A community project if you will. I have a few ideas in this regard, some contests, some more conventional options: A contest to see who can visit the most businesses and tell as many stories as possible completely unrelated to that location - Peter-Gangi is a bit of a pioneer of this work and would likely be a good candidate to join a judging panel as an expert. A challenge to decipher things WhyBother says - A simple enough premise, give WhyBother a platform to speak normally and then everyone has to guess what he means assuming his mouth was not permanently full of dicks. Once upon a time we used to have great newspapers like the Mafia Tribune, The Star Examiner and Mob News. Bring something like this back to the Streets with paid writers if needed. There could also be a storytelling section; since people really seem to enjoy listening to these, I bet they would love reading them in print form. Finally, perhaps the money could be used to trigger some actual involvement in the streets. Starting from X time, whoever brings the most people to various discussions and generates some actual interaction and engagement takes the prize. Bonus points for getting those older statesmen and women who have been lethargic for years out of their boxes. I will pledge $3m to any worthy cause. |

Thank you for the $3m, Gerwyn A newspaper is an interesting idea. A salaried editor and an editorial board? Multi city? |

I for one love some good farcical nonsense. Therefore I've pledged $5m to the "If you don't get along I'm turning the car around and Nobody gets to go to @#$%N Villiancon!" Everyone has to say something nice about all the other participants plus one for anytime they posted another's name in this thread . |

Tapping his chin thinking a moment as he looked at Mr_Keating. "My good sir what would be a good amount to donate?" |

"I would rather choke on a piece of dog turd than send any of my cash to you, under false pretenses to fundraise for a "good cause". And seeing that you won $70,351,349 cash in the lottery, it makes me wonder a couple of things: 1 - Did you use the money people tipped you in good faith to really help with some good cause? 2 - Now you can probably donate to your own fundraiser and be done with it , since it's a hella lot of money, right?" Marishka spits on the ground before leaving and says: "This is what i think of you and this is what i donate to your fundraiser. Enjoy." |

Mr. Keating, Seeing as you saw fit to use a value in the region of $10,000,000 on a gamble in this weeks Mafiosa Lottery, yet won't even support your own prizefunding campaign, I hereby declare I am withdrawing my offer of a $10,000,000 donation. I hope the rest of your campaign goes well. |

SatoruGojo - I earned many entries in the lottery and that's what gave me my win. I am in fact barred from any gambling activities I call on you to withdraw your slander? |

Withdraw my slander? So, let me get this straight Mr Keating. When presented with the options of whether to support your own fundraising cause and match my offer of a $10,000,000 donation, or invest it in lottery tickets for personal gain, you chose to gamble instead of support the community as a whole? The result of the lottery is irrelevant. My issue is your mindset in that moment, when presented with two options. Your decision to take the path of personal gain has given me all the information I need. |

If what you state is true and that you are indeed barred from any gambling activites across the six Cities, then that is great news! So, I'll give you an opportunity to redeem yourself in front of our wonderful audience. According to the news reports I read this morning, the headlines stated, "LOTTERY RESULTS: Mr_Keating has won $70,351,349 from the cash lottery!" Seeing as this is for a good cause, if you donate half of that (go treat yourself with the other half, buy something nice) to Godfather-Chairman Dagda, I will reinstate my pledge of $10,000,000. You have been presented with a wonderful opportunity to really get the fund pool rolling. I'll await the confirmation from New Yorks Godfather-Chairman and once received, I'll send him over my $10,000,000 too. |

SatoruGojo - had I not already donated, tributed, and invested my win, I may have considered your offer. But no, I won't be doing that. I have my own dependents to look after, and I will match your offer £10m for £10m. |

You seem to not be able to comprehend that my offer of a 1:1 ratio pledge was prior to your recent good fortune on this weeks lottery. How you were able to seemingly spend $60,000,000 over night, when you had full knowledge that you yourself were running a fundraising competition, is somewhat lost on me. |
