I’m no big Ye fan (loved his earlier music, can’t jam with many/most of his opinions, tho) but the takeaway here is that there’s really no price that’s worth your reputation. 

Despite being a total small-fry, even *I’ve* gotten approached with similar (INFINITELY smaller, to be clear!) offers in my time building on @base - including once after my bank account (and tens of thousands of others - STILL no resolution here btw!) got frozen & my power was turned off. 

Still said no.

I’ve made big mistakes in my builder journey - big ones - but at least I can say they were from incompetence, not malice. 

If you find yourself in a situation like this, reach out to me, we’ll chat. I won’t judge you, and I won’t narc on you. I just want to show you that there’s a better way.

“Better” =/= “easier” - but better is better. 

You’re unlikely to end up on your deathbed saying “I wish I’d scammed more people out of their hard-earned money…”
