Show HN: Site where rich people can fulfill poor people's wish. P2P

[preetramsha]

I saw a tiktok the other day where it said there should be a website where wealthy individuals, unsure of how to spend their money, can fulfill the wishes of poor people. They could compete with other wealthy donors on a global leaderboard based on their contributions.

And I made it in 4 days on cloudflare ecosystem using serverless.

You sure as heck make a whole lotta apps. One of these days you'll strike gold.

I think you'll have better luck with an app that allows depraved rich people connect with desperate poor people in order to have them do their bidding. Easier to game-ify as well.

For the confused, this is sarcasm, or as the kids say these days, based.

More concrete advice would be to spend less time on tiktok and more time figuring out what you genuinely need, as it's easier to motivate yourself towards finding a comprehensive solution to it, as opposed to your present scheme of random, half-baked ideas.

When I was a kid I was fortunate enough to play with computers a lot and I always wanted to make apps/sites that creates an impact around the globe.

I ship a lot because none of my projects have made even a single dollar and I will be forced to do a job starting next year if I don't make money. Understandable.

I am ready to fail small 100 times but when I will win it will be BIG.

Thinking of getting youtubers on this site where they can donate to their audiance and climb in the leaderboard which will give them fame and build trust amongst audiances. what do you think about this idea?

Hmmm platonic sugar daddies

Honestly, I love the idea. Wealthy people chase status (and power), its all they have left after economically winning (it's why Gates, Dalio, etc go from podcast to conference to book tour to talk, it's the wealthy person's equivalent of Jeb Bush's "please clap"). If they want to race to see who gives more away, why not? Erect the leaderboard of charity flex!

@preetramsha What do you think about a style more like GoFundMe from a wireframe perspective? Their UX is already great for discovery and campaigns, your focus just so happens to be on the leaderboard.
