The Naked Capitalism community has spoken loudly and clearly. You’ve said you want this site to have more in-depth coverage and more impact. You’ve provided tangible backing for your desire to have us demystify finance, call out chicanery in high places, parse propaganda, to become more effective in our activism, and in our small way, help promote the creation of a more just society.
We set an initial target of 1100 donors for our fundraiser. You met that last week. We set a new gaol of 1250. You broke that last weekebd. We set a new target of 1500, which you beat mid this week. We then raised our target to 1750, and you are closing in on it now.
We are now at 1636. Help us make this the best fundraiser ever by giving in the home stretch at our Tip Jar!
And we are at $22,665, or 65% our target of $35,000 for original reporting!
Can you push us over the top? Ever little bit will help, whether it’s $5 or $27, or $50, or $5,000.
Join us and participate via our fundraiser page, where you can give by credit or debit card of via a PayPal account (the charge will be in the name of Aurora Advisors).
You can also send a check (or multiple post dated checks) in the name of Aurora Advisors Incorporated to

Please also send an e-mail to yves@nakedcapitalism.com with the headline “Check is in the mail” (and just the $ en route in the message) to have your contribution included in our running tally.
We’ve gotten SO many messages that it will take me some time to read through them all and reply properly. I wanted to share a few:
From Paul O:
OK, I have donated for a second time this year. I get nowhere near enough time to come here half as often as I would like, but when I can come it is always worth while. You do great work and the comments section is exceptional (and you even gave my dog a brief moment of fame).
For those reading this. If you are of ample means why not give just a little bit more this year!
As William D said:
$50. I wish it were more. The best news source in America.

I think I’ve been reading NC since 2009. Sometimes I’m commenting and participating, sometimes I don’t have time to do it. But whenever I come back here I remember why I’ve stuck with Yves and her crew for so long.This is a truly unique blog and it needs your help, please do as I did and contribute!
So, last chance. Be one of the 100 or so we need to push this effort over the top.
If you can give a little, give a little. If you can give more, give more. If you can give a lot, give a lot. You are investing in being part of the solution. And thanks again for your support!
just a note to those whose circumstances do not permit them to donate. Sharing links on social media is a great way to support Naked Capitalism. Corporations pay millions of dollars to promote their point of view online, so posting links are a real benefit to NC. Also it makes the kleptocracy cry.
Motion seconded.
Also, for those whose circumstances do permit, paying it forward for others is always a kind gesture.
