Asking For $1,000,000

[identityissues8]

Okay, yes. It's been done. And done successfully - a man by the name of Craig Rowin made a series of YouTube videos that went viral where he effectivbely asked random celebrities, business people and businesses for $1,000,000.
Eventually he was actually given $1,000,000 by a man by the name of Benjamin, who I don't believe he actually asked for a mill from./

So, to the point of the thread.

Would you do it?
Could you do it?
Could Craig's success be replicated?

That was an elaborate hoax. The guy is a comedian and he never received a million dollars.

no one just gives away a million without anything in return.

Bill Gates does. He gave away a lot of money to poor African countries.

That's because the tax guy would rip him a new one if he sat on his endless wealth.
