This is me begging for donations to keep me reviewing cigars.
$5 or $25 and everything in between will be happily accepted.
At 71, I can no longer work.
My age and Elephant Man deformities prohibit me from being able to review newly released cigars.
The recent request to send me cigars was very successful…thanks to a group of great guys who gave me a shot to continue reviewing.
I was thinking that I could charge a fee to read my reviews, but I prefer to beg for help instead. Subscription to my blog is a last resort.
Email me at katman2018@protonmail.com and I will give you my Paypal I.D.
Thank you.
Note: I am being trolled. People are commenting and asking for my email address but they are not who they say they are. I must protect my privacy.
So, while the following rules will probably annoy potential donors, I have no choice in this matter.
1. I must know you.
2. You must friend me on FB or linkedin.
3. You must have commented at one time so I can compare the email and IP address.
4. I might press you for proving you are who you say you are. If you are a complete stranger, odds are low that I will give out my email address.
5. If this turns out to be a failure because it is too much of a hassle for you, I will at some point make access to this site a fee driven subscription. No longer free access to my website.
I am sorry about this but I have sources that are reliable informing me I am being actively trolled.
Note 9-4-2021
As the trolls begin their march into mediocrity, you should all know that every single independent reviewer asks for donations on their blog or YouTube channel. But apparently I’m not allowed to. You’ve been reading me for 10 years for free.
These independent reviewers are relatively young compared to me and have jobs.
If you read me, trust me, and enjoy me, whenever it is prudent for you financially, send me a couple bucks. I promise to send each and every person that donates a newsletter showing what I bought and a little more info than what I write here.
Thank you,
Phil
