“And so, if you will… I will lead you to my next point. Whereupon all markets are saturated and demand is quenched, mankind must lead their gaze to new horizons.”

SeriousMobster unrolls a paper poster and pins it to the wooden board with three tacks, nearly falling off his little stool in front of the open marketplace and gathered crowd (if one can call it that) of interested bystanders. In unintelligible scribble lie details too small and fine a font, but the brunt of the poster reads: INVEST IN CONQUERING THE MOON TODAY.

“My kinfolk, we lead lives of struggle and bustle. Nonetheless, I have no doubts of the progress that we can achieve together, with investment from visionaries like yourselves to thrust upon this world our plan of action that can lead to riches, glory, and perhaps the most consequential event of all mankind.”

SeriousMobster gestures to the gathered spectators and, in doing so, smacks his hand into a hanging street sign of the butcher’s shop before which he has set up his presentation. The owner of the butcher’s shop, who has leisurely placed himself in the open doorway amidst a slow business day, shakes his head in mild disappointment before heading back inside. SeriousMobster tucks his immediate wince away with a salesman’s smile and continues his prepared remarks.

“You see, that circle which winks at us in the night sky, that wistful coin that peeks into the daylight skies, she not only hides great beauty but great value to us all. Imagine digging amongst her surface and pulling out buckets, if not truck loads of gold, silver, diamonds. These things that man have waged and lost wars over for millennia lie so abundantly in the stars that is laughable we have not yet reached out and grabbed them with our own hands!”

SeriousMobster steps off his stool and, with a somber but swift action removes his hat and motions for the nearby onlookers to get a little closer.

“Invest in humanity. Invest in yourselves. Once we reach our fundraising goals, you’ll get thousands of percent in return on your dollars. It would be stupid to miss this opportunity. Sign up today.”
