    Sounds like something out of a dream, or, other!

    Gotta start somewhere though.

    I'm sure many could appreciate the thought anyway!

    I applaud even the thought as Chip presented it.

    The thought of Airplanes were probably once laughed at!

    Thought not to be possible!

    "To Dream The Impossible Dream"

    Sounds like music to my ears!

    Let the music play on!

      Dear Chip,

      What you propose is totally unworkable; we were told of several funds, 
that used to exist and had a fairly considerable amount of money, fall flat on 
their faces because the funds were not administered properly--you have to set 
up a nonprofit foundation of some kind first; you need to find your funding 
sources--individual, corporate, etc.--you need to set up a committee or board 
who will administer the fund and process applications, etc. etc.

      I wish doing what you propose was as easy as you think but it is not, and 
if we don't have re-payment, other funding sources will back out because you 
are, in effect, giving grants rather than making loans.

      Are you delving into everyone's finances through some channel of which I 
am not aware?  I personally don't know anyone in Tally who is getting huge SSDI 
or Retirement checks, though I'll grant you there are folks who don't have as 
much, and there probably ought to be some way to verify an individual's 
financial status--that would mean some people could not qualify because, even 
with a small-interest loan over a fair period of time, will be more than they 
can afford.
      ]
      I will not involve myself in anything that is questionably legal--oh yes, 
you do have to report to the 
      IRS-because what you propose sounds more like a grant program to me with 
no financial accountability to the contributors or borrowers.
