Can you buy your way into the neutron club?...Elite status?

Post by Richard Hull »

The answer is Yes! Most definitely! Money talks as loud and as reliably as those less fortunate who are up to facing a major struggle over time, demanding highly successful scrounging, doing their own machining and welding and manufacturing their own high voltage supply. These latter skill demonstrations merely show prowess, talent, verve and skills. We feel far more insight and gain in prestige is accorded those who struggle to become elite fusioneers. Money will always suffice to create a fusor that is capable of proven fusion.

The only thing that can keep you out of the neutron club is being a professional making gainful employ in the effort for a person or entity financing the effort.

Money coupled with verve and talent can move a project along smartly for someone with money supplied by a parent or sponsor. All that is required is that the supplied materials to the would-be fusioneer, be assembled and used by the fusioneer and that they receive no compensation from the sponsor for their time or labor.

A very active, well funded person can easily gain "elite" status by using their assembled fusor to do and record activation, indicating that they are actively experimenting with their device.

I hope this clarifies for all that money can be a "buy-in" here. There is nothing wrong with this path at all.

The more complex the idea put forward by the poor amateur, the more likely it will never see embodiment
