@Anonymous Thanks for the input. Lots of good responses from all. As for pursuing the sponsor, interesting. I didn't know about how the corporate deadlines dovetail with the individual ones. This is a crowdfunding investment and the platform has been all over the sponsor, but can't get meaningful engagement. I spoke with the sponsor ahead of making the investment and know someone who works (worked?) for him. High credibility at the outset. Virtually none at this point. Still confident in the project, albeit with more modest return expectations, but what, where, when and how - who knows! I'd like to think I know why.
