Hi Everyone!

My name is Tony and I am in the process of starting a new clothing company called Abduction 51.

It has been my dream for around 7 years now to have my own clothing company which I can pass onto my children in years to come.

I have put many many hours into the business so far to try and get things started and I have managed to get as far as getting a small amount of prototype tshirts printed.

I am now working on the launch line, which is where I really need your help! I have a business partner who is a designer and together we have been working all available hours to create designs for the launch line. We are really close to completing our launch lineup but we are really struggling to get the funds to put our launch line into production.

My funding target is £2000. The £2000 target is to cover the costs of getting our apparel manufactured and market it.

We would really like your help to help us to make this dream a reality!

Once we have established our brand name and the company is doing well, we want to bring out a clothing line where all profits will go to local and nation charities.

No donation is too big or too small!

Thank you for taking the time to read my Beglist advert.

I have known my fair share of hard times, such as the hurricanes of 2004 which totaled my house. I able to bounced back, but I have never been hit as hard as by this Great Recession and so I am doing my first Cyber Beg. Why? Because this is the first time in my life I have; been out of work for 2 years & 5 months, qualified for Food Stamps, had to liquidate all my assets and been without health insurance. I could go on, but basically am back to were I started when I was 20 years old. If enough of you send, say a $1.50 donation, the cost of cup of coffee, I should be able to fight my way back to financial stability. Perhaps it is because there is no way of tell if my needs are real. But if you work on the principal that small donations by large numbers of people add up to worthy amount of aid, why not help out? Pick three begs of your choice and send $1.50 to each. Thank you all for reading this and please be generous.

Since my previous posts have yielded only four donations over the last five months I thought I would try this approach. My financial problems are quite real. If you find my fable entertaining please send a small donation.

The Grasshopper and the Ant
A Classic retold by Joseph the Beggar King
Part One

Once upon a time, not so very long ago, there were two friends, the Grasshopper and the Ant. Why these two became friends is a bit of a mystery. The Grasshopper was a dreamer and a drifter. The Ant was a believer and an achiever.

In school the Grasshopper would look out the window without thought and only learned the subjects he found interesting. Sometimes he would fall asleep in Math class, other times when a angry teacher would jump him with a pop question he would give the correct answer in way that would confound them.

The Ant was a teachers dream, he soaked up every subject the system taught him, gave the correct answers in the correct way and got straight A s. He would delight his Math teacher by doing compound interest in his head. The Ant believed that what they taught him would help him succeed and was very completive. After graduating High School the Ant got an Academic Scholarship and the Grasshopper got a Pell Grant.

Within four years the Ant got two BS degrees in Business Management and Engineering. The Grasshopper dropped out after the first year. He went to live with the Rainbow Tribe for a few years. On the way to the bus station he found an old fiddle in a trash pile along the road and when he got station he was able to panhandle his bus fare. That was the Grasshoppers first beg.

The Ant took the College like a fish to water. During open Rush some Greeks invite him to be a brother in their Fraternity. He earned his dues by being the Frat Houses Accountant and made beer money by writing term papers. One day while visiting the Tri Deltas he watches the girls play volleyball and is amazed that even though they are playing a vigorous game not one of them breaks a sweat. It is there he meets the girl of his dreams, Polly Fishbane.

While the Grasshopper was living with the Rainbow Tribe he never meets the girl of his dreams, but it does not really matter too much because they believe in Free Love. So free, in fact, that after what you might call the Honeymoon he found himself getting a little bored with it. From the Rainbow Tribe he learns to live off the fat of country and from his new friend, Buffalo with Runs, he learns to live off the land. Buffalo with Runs was an very old Indian that was adopted by the tribe. He taught the Grasshopper what wild plants were safe to eat or use for medicines. He showed him how to set traps and hunt small game. Then, during one winter Gathering four people froze to dead because they were too stoned to come in out of the cold. The Grasshopper became very sad and hopped away.

The Ant is recruited by a Aerospace firm even before he graduated college and goes to work on the Apollo Program. He and his new wife Polly loved the Florida sunshine and settle down to start the American Dream. They decide to have two and half children. Even though the third kid looked a bit odd the Ant loved him as only a father can. With easy money down and mortgage tax deductions compliments of Uncle Sam, they get a house with a two car garage. Next they get two cars and the Rat Race is on. The Ant loves it! Working on the Apollo Program is more than a job, it is being part of history. Polly loves it! Raising their kids and Keeping up of with the Jones. She starts selling Avon products on the side. The Ant buys the best bass boat in the neighborhood, but only uses it once a year because he too busy working. He sets up his retirement funds and a small stock portfolio. Life is Good!

After leaving the Rainbow Tribe the Grasshopper panhandles his way across the country. He sets up in parks and subways where he pretends to play his fiddle while selling jewelry made of deer anthers and beads. The noise he makes with his fiddle sounds like a cat being killed and people give him money just to make him stop. Before the Cops run him off, the Grasshopper usually made enough in one day of begging to cover his needs for the week. When he is hungry he goes to a Soup Kitchen and when he needs clothing there are the Sharing Centers. Every now and then he lets some good hearted woman try to save him. Life is Good and he hops away.

The Apollo Program ends and the new Shuttle program does not start for a couple of years. The Aerospace company were the Ant works at does not win any of the new bids. They offer him a job in California at 20% less of his salary. Polly and the kids are in a rage. Nobody wants to move and leave their friends. The Ant sells his house at a loss because the real estate market in flooded by the laid offs. The one car and the boat are reprocessed. He sells off his stock portfolio for the down payment on the new house in California and even though money is tight the Ant decides to take the family on a short vacation to Key West to uplift their spirits. He finds the Grasshopper selling deer antler jewelry at the Front Street Market. While Polly and the kids go shopping, he and Grasshopper catch up and have a couple of beers. The Ant tells his friend about the laid offs and the move. The Grasshopper asks him - Are you Happy - ? The Ant says - Yes -. His friend says, - Good - . They watch the sunset and see a green flash on the horizon.
To be continue.

I have known my fair share of hard times, such as the hurricanes of 2004 which totaled my house. I able to bounced back, but I have never been hit as hard as by this Great Recession and so I am doing my first Cyber Beg. Why? Because this is the first time in my life I have; been out of work for 2 years & 5 months, qualified for Food Stamps, had to liquidate all my assets and been without health insurance. I could go on, but basically am back to were I started when I was 20 years old. If enough of you send, say a $1.50 donation, the cost of cup of coffee, I should be able to fight my way back to financial stability. Perhaps it is because there is no way of tell if my needs are real. But if you work on the principal that small donations by large numbers of people add up to worthy amount of aid, why not help out? Pick three begs of your choice and send $1.50 to each. Thank you all for reading this and please be generous.

Hello, my name is Scott and I am here asking for help because I... have run out of every alternative to get my life and my project studio business off the ground. It's at a dead stop. I was laid off in March 2011 due to company downsizing, could not qualify for unemployment because the previous employers "claimed" I'd quit. Job hunted on foot in Chicago from March to August filling out 4-9 applications a day, 5 days a week without a single call from anyone. Exhausted all of my bank accounts, can not get a load due to not owning a car or home, had to sell my car just to pay off debts, lost my apartment because ex-roommate thought it was better to steal from me and lie about having a job than telling the truth. My parents are in the hospital, so they are in no shape to help me.

The only way I have been able to contact people is by relying on my girlfriend's Internet, electricity, helping her cook and clean while "guest staying" at her apartment but know this won't last. I ask too much of her help to watch my cat while I continue to look online.




All I ask is for someone, anyone who can help. My goal is simple: I need to raise enough money to start a art design, publishing studio which would bring in clients who need visionaries to help make their designs, commercials, products, books, ebooks, animation using the next wave of 3D technology, FX special effects for student filmmakers in Chicago colleges, to help bring in interns and show them the pros and cons to hone their skills, and finally bring together Chicago artists who wish to have their talents and skills to create extraordinary work for any and all who wish to see it.

Bottom line, I need help. Financial help. I don't know what else to do. I can't get a job, for whatever reason, I'm flat broke, exhausted from sleeplessness and stress. All I own is a laptop, some clothes, my wonderful artistic skills, (my undying determination, good sense of right and wrong, knowledge of computer programs, business sense, sharp humor and a kind heart to make my dream a reality. I really don't want to live under a expressway but if things don't change, it looks like my next post just might be my last.

For those of you who have read this and given some thought, please help by donating. Who knows, you might be lending out to the future "Industrial light and Magic" of the 21st century?






This is for more that just myself, this is for a cause that needs help. Help from people like you who know the value of the human heart. This is to help create a studio designed to welcome those who wish to create, strive, teach, animate, and pioneer. Imagination is the last, boundless frontier, let's be a part of that journey by helping one another dream it to fruition.

No dream ever truly dies, we just let them fade away.



Help me change that. Any help will do.






Thank you for reading.

Hi, I'm a 26-yr-old starving artist, literally. After a hell-ish situation involving Children and Youth Services forced me to choose between my 6-yr-old daughter being placed in foster care or me leaving the house, I am currently living in a half-way house, trying to find a home and a job, and in the meantime trying to make ends meet by drawing. I can design tattoos, take personal caricature commissions, and do abstract logos and designs through photoshop. Please, help me keep my cell phone and get the money for an apartment and food. If you're interested in commissioning me, feel free to email me at nexiahatch@yahoo.com with details. Thank you in advance.

No, I don't think you are a sucker, but I AM trying to start up a confectionary business selling the best suckers ever made! My suckers are funky little designs, thick with outrageously great flavors, and everyone that tastes them raves on with how awesome they are.

Rootbeeralicious, CottonyCandy, Hotlanta!, LatteLove. Just a few of my superlicious addictive flavors.

This is all part of my "dumped by my huband at age 56" starting over strategy. I WANT success. I WANT to make candy lovers ecstatically happy by offering this ONESHOT dessert. And, just to tease you a little bit more, I am working on something called "Cake on a Stick". Don't want a whole peice of cake but craving some sugary sweetness, a little icing, some chocolate and the happiness of cake? I've got it! ToffeeCoffee, StrawberryMint, ChocoRocks, and a bunch of special ocassion creations that will knock your socks off!

Taste tests have proven that my flavors rock and customers will pay premium just to get one. People already contact me thoughout the whole year to beg me to make them. And Christmas?? I can't keep enough coming out of the kitchen. No more hobby for me! I'm ready for business.

Let's get started! As an investor, I'll send you a special edition personalized sucker all for you! Might even name one exclusively in your honor!

Come on! Take a chance and be a SUCKER for my SUCKERS!

We've both been on Social Security Disability for about four years now; me just a year after we bought our house, and we've been working part time from our home to supplement the SSD income because obviously SSD is not enough to keep the bills paid and keep our house.

We don't use credit cards, scrimp on every dime, shop at the outlet stores and liquidation stores to spend less. We switched phone services to Magic Jack to save hundreds on our phone bill and use our wood stove for heat to cut down on the electric bill.

2009's economy simply tanked my husband's business and put us over $15K in debt, plus put a crush on my transcription business at the same time, leaving us without our savings and driving us further in debt with the bank.

I started two new businesses last year to offset the transcription business and before everything started to fall apart, and what I really need is SALES - I need TRAFFIC to my websites and I need to sell my bookmarks to help bring us back out of debt.

My husband is still trying to get his business back but it's not looking too hopeful because the economy hasn't completely turned around.

So more than just money, I'm "cyber-begging" or "virtually panhandling" for SALES! Although donations of cash if you don't like the bookmarks are greatly appreciated too.

Our bookmarks are beautiful and make awesome favors for wedding showers, weddings, baby showers, or you can purchase them as a fund raising source too!

Stop by our site at http://www.wedding-favor-bookmarks.com to see our line of 80+ designs and "please, please" tell your friends. We really need this to happen - whether it's bookmark sales or just donations, which you can do with the PayPal button below or through our donation button at http://www.wedding-favor-bookmarks.com/link-partners.html

Thank you!
