KendrickAyomide:
fundraisers are cooperate beggers
That's your perspective and it is not correct. Do you know Billionaires also do fundraising? And as per GoFundMe and other fundraising channels, let me put it across this way, there is a very smart person, he has an invention or gadget or project design he made, it has been patented, he has money to produce one or 3 units but he doesn't have money to mass produce it. If he takes his idea to the corporate big sharks, they are not interested in helping him grow, if his invention is really good, the corporate big sharks want to pay for it, own it and send him away but they want to pay him 1/100000000th of the potential value that invention has, pay him peanuts for it, while they turnover the idea, build on it and make billions from it. This practice has killed off the greatness of so many self-made inventors. But this inventor is smart not to make that same mistake, and that's the idea behind these fundraising platforms. So platforms like GoFundMe helps them to fundraise money from neutral sponsors, who are not interested in stealing the invention but interested in seeing the world become a better place with more helpful and beneficial inventions. No strings attached sponsors. On some other platforms, the inventor will make the products available to the sponsors at a cheaper price than the normal selling price after it is launched. If the gadget costs maybe $300, then they could do something like the fundraisers of the project will get it at $180 per unit etc. So it's not about begging. Even fundraising for charity is not entirely begging, because some NGOs are own by billionaires and they seek public support so they can achieve a bigger aim at a quicker pace, and not carry the financial burden of their charity work alone. Most of these Billionaires do charity work and have NGOs, I hope you know. Are they beggars?

But if we are being truthful to ourselves, Erica didn't win money, it is raised for her through Gofundme, there is a difference between winning and fundraising. So saying Erica is the biggest cash winner is wrong, she didn't compete for Gofundme, she competed for Bbnaija and she didn't win any cash prize.
If we are being truthful to ourselves, you will KNOW that Erica has been able to raise that money because of BBN, because of the supporters she got from BBN. Do you think if she was not a BBN contestant that was popular she would have raised that money? No, she won't. If you think I am lying, if you have a relative or friend abroad, tell the person to open GoFundMe for you, using just your name; no tech invention, no tech project, no gadgets, no startup, no charitable cause, just use your name ONLY, I am so and so, raise $100K for me, I bet you in 200 years, you won't raise $2K sef, not to talk of raising $66K within 22 days. And how didn't she "win" money? Someone opened that GoFundMe on her behalf, she didn't work for it, she didn't labor, and she won't pay the money back because it's not loan. It's FREE money, I dash you money. So it's a winning. How she won it doesn't matter, if someone gifts you $100K for free, or for rolling dice, or for staying inside BBN house for some weeks, so far you didn't spend a kobo, you won it. She won her supporters favor and she has won over $66K within 22 days. It's a winning. And it's a very impressive feat. That's even the idea here. Even Tacha that was so popular, and maybe even more popular than Erica and had a cult followership of Titans, after her DQ they opened GoFundMe for Tacha. See the screenshot of Tacha's GoFundMe, since 2019 till today and compare it with Erica's own to get an IDEA of what I'm talking about. So Erica is really really favored and has strong backup supporters

KendrickAyomide:
see the way you contradicted you self in one comment . Lmao
Contradict as how. You said GoFundMe is a begging platform. GoFundMe said they are a platform for fundraising for individuals, businesses and charities. The highest fundraisers on GoFundMe are busineses, especially inventors and tech start-ups. I know this because I follow GoFundMe for many years and I follow many tech start-ups and inventors who raise money for their various projects regularly through GoFundMe and continue to do so. In fact, GoFundMe is more of an inventors fundraising hub. You called Erica a beggar because she used GoFundMe me and you are proud of yourself? And you think you are smart in your own eyes?

bros using Go fund me means you are a beggar. Do you ever know the meaning of Go fund me?
Of cuz I do. So all the inventors and tech gurus using GoFundMe to launch a new invention or new tech gadgets are beggars to you? That's GoFundMe's own statement below about who they are. Did you see beggar there, did GoFundMe tell you they are an exclusive "beggar's platform" and everyone using GoFundMe is a beggar?

"Launched in 2010, GoFundMe is the world's largest, free social fundraising platform. With over $9 billion raised from more than 120 million donations, we're on a mission to help people fundraise for personal, business, and charitable causes."

I hope the young boys on this thread are reading and learning, so that you won't make the same mistake this guy made in his life. Never sacrifice your opportunity in life for any woman, never ever do it. If that guy didn't sacrifice his own school fees for her, if he wasn't good to her throughout school (= carrying some of her burdens in school) and instead faced his own demons and carried his own cross he would have graduated and probably be in a more better position than he is today. When your parents send you to school or you send yourself to school, please and please, dear boys, face your school and face the aim you are in school, don't go forming super man and captain save-a-girlfriend for any girl in the name of being a hero or nice guy. If it backfires, you are in soup. If you're from a wealthy family, and have more than enough and have some to spare, yes by all means, you can help anyone you feel is deserving of it or you feel like helping. No problem. But when you barely have enough for yourself and you're not rich or from a rich home, and your school fees is like your life's savings, the last thing you have, don't sacrifice your own chance of finishing your education for a girlfriend in school, because she will abandon you if things don't work out for you, and people will tell her to abandon you, as you can see from this thread. When your parents, or helper (or you yourself) sponsor you to school, please carry your cross and face your education, don't go and be adding another BROKE girlfriend's demons and problems to your own. You sacrifice to save them when they are broke, but they will abandon you when you are broke, 95% of them. Only few women will reciprocate the gesture. Be wise! When it comes to BROKE girlfriends, let the dead bury their dead broke girlfriends bury their demons themselves, you have your own demons to deal with. Don't add her demons to your demons.

if Laycon was a begger like Erica, he would raise 1 million dollars
This one is not a Erica Vs Laycon matter and it is not a beggar matter. Using GoFundMe to raise money doesn't make the person a beggar. And raising over $60K on GoFundMe within 22 days is an undeniable huge feat. Do you know the kind of people that raise that type of money in a short time on GoFundMe? Exceptional inventors and people with tech projects that are very impressive etc. Erica raised that kind of money with just HER NAME. That's very big mehnnn. It means she has solid backing. Do you know some celebs in Nigeria have died trying to raise money from the public to pay medical expenses and they couldn't raise the money on time. But she just raised N30m so quickly like that. It means she's very favored too.
