LPP Fusion Wefunder campaign

Update on the Fusion subject

I got an email from Focus Fusion, which mentions this video. This video doesn't mention Focus Fusion, but it does give you a pretty good idea of what's out there. The risk of an investment includes the risk that some other company may beat you to the punch. Focus Fusion isn't the only one out there.

Here's the video for anyone that may be interested. Why did I invest? Because it is easy. Focus Fusion made it easy. The little guy can get in on it. All of these startups mentioned in the video have big money backing them.

Big money doesn't always win. Bicycle mechanics invented the airplane. Steve Jobs made his first computer in a garage or basement.

For a couple hundred bucks, you can buy into this concept. If it works, it could be like winning the lottery. Or maybe not. It all depends, I suppose. Aneutronic fusion would radically change the energy picture. The only waste products from the process is helium, which is actually a valuable commodity. In other words, there's no downside.

I bought in for a share.

If you consider what the Big Tech companies managed to do in terms of valuation, this thing could pay off handsomely. On the other hand, a couple hundred dollars is a small risk. That's how to look at it, in my opinion. A moonshot in terms of risk, but a freaking huge goldmine if it hits. Some would ask why, and I would respond--- why not? A truly world-changing technology will pay huge freaking dividends. Even if it goes bust, so what? A 200 buck gamble is not that big. I've done worse in terms of investments. Why not, indeed. A single share could payoff in a million bucks, if it performed like Facebook.

Some folks look only at the risk. Others may only see the rewards. Try looking at it in a balanced way. Big risks, but big rewards. A small investment can lead to a huge payoff. The energy industry is a lot bigger than Facebook.

If it all sounds like greed, then look at the benefits of the technology. It will end fossil fuels, if you think that fossil fuels are a problem. I don't think that way, but if you do, then why not invest in this? The world is going to need an energy source, and this is a clean energy source.

I think it could also lead to advanced propulsion for spacecraft. It isn't being promoted that way, but that doesn't exclude the possibility. The process yields a high velocity helium particle that can translate into electricity or thrust. The ISP for the device would probably be over a million. That means just a small amount of reaction mass could take you to Mars. The same device could provide energy for the trip, and for the stay on Mars. What's not to like?

By the way, I don't think this out of the way blog is going to make any difference. But I have to try.
