A lot of commenters tell me that while the weird bluffs and thin value bets I post here are fun to read, they don’t feel they can apply them in the games they play. Well, today I’ve got a great investment that’s available to everyone! As little as $10 has the potential to return $10,000 and a world of opportunity for some very deserving young people.

The Boston Debate League, a non-profit organization that has been near and dear to me for some time, has entered a “March Goodness” competition. We are competing against 64 other non-profits in hopes of ultimately winning $10,000. To make it to the final four, we must generate more “unique donations” than the 16 other non-profits in our group.

I’d really appreciate your help with this. The goal isn’t necessarily to raise the most money, but to have the most individuals donate. You can donate as little as ten dollars, but of course we won’t complain if you would like to donate more.

I can personally vouch for the quality of this program, the integrity of its leadership (I’m on the Board), and the overall good that your donation will accomplish. I strongly encourage you to watch this five-minute film that highlights some of the ways in which debate improves the lives of underserved youth. You can also learn more about us on our website.  Read the complete post...
