I'm more curious why this is the best option.
I remember speaking with EBPREC, they said they came to a meeting and were
told Omni had other options and didn't need them, so they left, this was
almost a year ago, and i've seen ebprec put money elsewhere, so still
wonder if we were crossed off the list and if there's a chance of making
something happen there.
There's also other person with money's offer, the only condition I heard on
that was that the building not be sold. (some people say this is an
anonymous donor, so being vague on this until i understand what's going on
with that)..
And I mean, what it's a million dollars? 500 people at $2k loan each seems
like a doable individual loan ask. (still curious what happened with
potential bank loans) Equity rather than asks/donations, more work, and,
it would really emphasize omni as a community project, community ownership
and all that...

(in thinking about some of the other messages on the thread i'm replying
to, i wonder if the context will make it harder to take my message
seriously on a hot thread, and if i should've just started a new thread,
but fingers crossed it can spur honest, open, transparent, real and
vulnerable convos about alternatives)
