A Challenge For All of You

Now all of you have read the selflessness I try to display in each and every thing I do - from car donations to great ideas in glass design.

I bring this timeless service before self now to you.

This isn't a holier than though horse I am trying to ride, but a dedication I am trying to instill to help us all realize the great sacrifices that must be made in the name of the greater good. Ayn Rand would undoubtedly take issue with the inherent moral qualifications that implies, but this isn't about giving up your own because you have to, but about giving up your own because it's your free choice to CHOOSE to.

It's about doing small things to help the world.

And this is why, when I reach 300 followers, I will DONATE all of my Adsense Revenue. Every penny I make from this website, from every Google Affiliate, from Google Adsense, and every purchase you make from auto insurance and life insurance, will all be donated towards this cause.

This doesn't have anything to do with buying insurance for your car, equity loans, or cash advances for insurance for your car. While those are all smart things to do this doesn't apply in this case. Stuff like mortgage which everyone needs doesn't apply either. But this selfless donation will help us all.

Call your friends, email your loved ones, post on random message boards.

Follow me, and you'll be free.

Donating Your Car

OK Folks so we've received a lot of response thus far on our most recent plexi glass phenomenon discovered by the American Chemistry Council. Simply put, a transition to not the poly carbonate glazing the Popular Mechanics article was advocating isn't the best method towards longsterm sustainability, but a full replacement of windows will be needed in every car for an overall reduction in weight. By the numbers, a 10 pound reduction in one car has ability to add 5 MPG's, and if we multiply that 10 by a conservative 100 million cars out on the road, we would have a billion pound reduction in the vehicles on the road (of course not including buses, vans, and other cars which would lose even more with a plastic glass replacement). With a billion pound reduction, we have A 200 MILLION ADDED MPG's AGGREGATE TOTAL!

This is absolutely astounding. But it's not what I wanted to talk about. What will be addressed today is car donations. I know a lot of us are supporting by the presence of our cars, but donating our cars has several benefits. Let's be perfectly clear, I am not suggesting our entire cars should be donated, but only the glass from the previous savings should be. Where do those car donations (of glass) have to go?

Several places - places where car insurance companies will lower you deductible for a safer car and has the possibility of reaping tax benefits.

Let me explain - replace the tampered glass in your car with plastic glass discussed last post, save 5 MPG's, donate old glass and save on car insurance with safer glass. Reap tax benefit from car donation ? - PROFIT!

Some more benefits listed below - but what do you think about car donations?
