I take a look at my wallet and realize there's nothin' left
Cause I've been slingin them dogs so long,
That I could never foresee how this'd go so wrong.
But I ain't never bunned a dog and then tried to serve it

yeah but your scenario creates jobs, the best case scenario goon version created one job, which turned into probably no job

the net regional economic benefit was one guy on craigslist was finally able to get rid of that vent hood, and the local coke representative thought he made a sale (which will end up not happening)

Technically his original planning was fine, it's just the fact that since he got twice as much as he asked for he figured he could double his ambitions while also not giving a gently caress if he overspent on stuff because hey he's got the extra money.

And also because the obstacle in his first building existed largely because he burned bridges for the group he needed to do work :v: without a sanitation hookup he couldn't use the site, but for some reason nobody could find that gosh darned hook up.

I disagree. if this dumb ks never got off the ground, wayne would still be working at a regular schlub job that he hates, dreaming of a better life like a normal person. he is now being confronted with the fact that he doesn't know how to run a business, nor improve his family's circumstances in a meaningful way, even with things literally being handed to him.

i would be concerned that his wife and family will lose their faith in him, but since their position seems to be that jesus christ will fill out the necessary paperwork and raise your FICO score if you just pray hard enough (not literally praying on your knees, that's too hard...more like anxiously worrying about it before you mentally turn it over to god), he will probably dodge the blame for this, his latest and most public of fuckups.

nothing that has been posted or revealed here would lead any reasonable person to believe that the original idea would have been successful at all. wayne has consistently demonstrated that he is an ideas man, not the kind if person who would do any sort of due diligence on a business idea. for example:

It all came unglued because the actual location for his original plan violated a state zoning ordinance of some sort by a couple of feet. He then had to abandon that site and scrambled to find a substitute.

Had he only gotten 6k he would have hit the same problem, but without enough funds for any other option.

You are delusional. His plan was never on the level, we all just took sound monkey at his word because who the gently caress knows why but there is no way this dude was going to make it happen, that much is clear now, not with any amount of money.

His original very good, well researched and organised $6000 plan still didn't include the $8000 cost and installation of the vent hood that he legally needs to operate, and also required him to pay more rent and install a bathroom with that -$2000. That's the unforeseen cost that's sunk this heroic renaissance man.

that's not fair, mr. doobie hotdog did in fact conduct extensive market research on location and cross promotional partnerships with local businesses

Doobie's Kickstarter posted:

We have secured a location on Hy 82 East , in Reform, Al. on the same property as the Mud Hole, a very poplar and very busy antiques and variety store ..our thoughts was his business will bring me business and mine vice versa..

edit: in the interest of total transparency to our backers, by "we have secured this location" we actually mean "we have not secured this location"
