Articles keep mentioning this figure. Just who started that idea of a $5 million 'stated goal'? I haven't read anything on Fred's website or anywhere else where someone in his organization stated that amount. I just figured it was like the supposed announcement date of July 4th that kept getting bandied about, and for which Fred was bashed in the press when it didn't materialize. It was speculation, too.
The sentence said the number was from Fred’s aides.
