MyRichUncle attempted this at scale a few years back. They built a cool algorithm to predict your future earnings, nd let people invest in you in exchange for a portion of your future earnings. They quickly realized that this doesn't scale, and while they garnered a lot of attention thanks to the novelty of the idea, the business failed. In a stroke of brilliance they leveraged their brand value into using MyRichUncle as a student-loan portal, and then after growing astoundingly fast, were nearly jailed for fraud and collusion with a handful of other scumbag student loan predators, and ultimately crashed and burned. |
