Capturing the Leadership of Major Financial Markets

The potential economic power of DCGYIF if extraordinary. With time and excellent leadership, DCGYIF will enable The Legacy of the Angels to emerge on the world stage as a financial leader.

In fact, it will enable The Legacy of the Angels to redefine the entire economic game — from greed to Love.

Six fundamental changes

As we cross the bridge from "securities" investment to sacred investment, six fundamental changes happen in the industrial capital investment system.

Change 1.	Drastic reduction of the responsiveness of the system to the greed motive. Some kinds of activities invite greed, while others simply don't appeal to greed. The existing material paradigm is highly responsive to greed—indeed the greediest people are those who have the greatest success in the existing system. Most companies that "make it big" end up being controlled by individuals who are motivated almost entirely by greed. Financial markets are "artfully" manipulated by individuals whose greed has no limits. DCGYIF operates in a way that repels the greedy and attracts people of good character.
Change 2.	Drastic elevation of the consciousness of industry. The behavior of an organization significantly reflects the consciousness of its investors. When investors are primarily motivated by greed, this gets reflected in the activities of the organization, and it is what we see as the norm in industry today. DCGYIF investors are motivated by Love, which will drastically elevate the behavior of industry.
Change 3.	Drastic reduction in vulnerability to taxation, regulation and control by "evil financial powers". The existing industrial capital investment system bears the enormous burden of two sets of laws: securities laws and income tax laws. These legal mechanisms, and the greed-mindset behind them, give the "evil financial powers" tremendous leverage. DCGYIF legally removes these legal burdens by shifting its financial activity out of the sector in which these laws have substantial impact and into a sector where they have little or no impact. DCGYIF renders the "evil financial powers" impotent.
Change 4.	Elimination of the barrier to reaching "grass-roots" investors. Currently, securities laws make it extremely difficult or impossible for spiritually mature organizations to reach spiritually mature investors in the numbers necessary to raise significant capital to undertake projects that have a significant impact uplifting humanity. DCGYIF lawfully removes this overwhelming barrier.
Change 5.	Elimination of all disincentives for long-term investment. The existing system (particularly in the United States) imposes strong incentives for "exiting" out of an investment. Most notorious are the double taxation of dividends and the reduced tax rate on capital gains. This attracts investors who don't really care what happens in the long run, as long as they have an "exit strategy" and can get out at a good price. It creates tremendous pressure for "buyouts", "mergers" and "initial public offerings" (IPOs), all of which serve to create exit vehicles for existing investors. DCGYIF completely eliminates this problem by focusing investor attention on the elimination of human suffering. A DCGYIF sacred investment is a long-term spiritual committment, made by an Angel, to help eliminate human suffering, and there is no "exit strategy" from that committment!
Change 6.	Unification of the system in support of exalted, large-scale humanitarian goals. The existing material paradigm has succeeded at creating a situation of vast human suffering on this planet. DCGYIF will unify all the sacred investors and Sacred Industrial Projects within The Legacy of the Angels for the purpose of reversing this dire situation and creating Heaven on Earth.

Moving from implicit returns to explicit returns in the nonprofit sector

As we cross the bridge from "securities" investment to sacred investment, we make a major change in the way charitable donors receive "returns" on their donations.

The nonprofit sector includes tens of thousands of charitable organizations that receive funds in the form of donations and then dispense those funds in the form of grants to individuals and organizations deemed worthy, according to the goals and purposes of the charitable organization. This process involves far less greed and far more love than the paradigm in the for-profit sector. Indeed, our society has benefited enormously from the good works that have been funded by charitable grants.

There is a spiritual principle that whenever we give, we receive something in return. We give a toy to a child, and we receive some precious moments of joy watching the child delight in the toy. We are troubled by the suffering of the blind, so we give a donation to a guide dogs charity, and we receive the serenity of knowing we did something to help the blind. These are returns to our hearts. But they are non-financial returns.

Nonetheless, charitable donations definitely do produce financial returns. It happens by the spiritual mechanism of karma, or "what goes around comes around". The idea is that when we support others financially, we get supported financially ourselves. The Bible recognizes this karmic principle in several places, such as:

Give a five dollar bill to a homeless beggar in the morning, and get an unexpected ten dollar check in the mail in the afternoon. Give a $10,000 donation to your church one week, and the next week your stock broker calls and informs you of a sudden rise in a stock you own, so you sell it for a $50,000 profit.

God works in strange and mysterious ways. Many people live according to this principle and claim this practice is important to their financial success. Some people practice tithing, which is the donating of one tenth of one's income to worthy causes.

However, we must carefully distinguish between two kinds of financial returns—explicit and implicit:

• Explicit financial returns involve a clearly defined cause and effect relationship between the funds paid and the financial returns received—the mechanism is known in detail and can be proven.

• Implicit financial returns involve the perception of a cause and effect relationship between the funds paid and the financial returns received—but the mechanism is mysterious and cannot be proven.

In the above examples of giving a five dollar bill to a homeless person and giving a $10,000 donation to a church, the cause and effect relationships between donations given and financial returns received are implicit. They are mysterious. There is no "proof" that one caused the other. We may know in our heart that one "caused" the other, but a scientist is going to have a very difficult time pinning it down objectively.

On the other hand, in the for-profit sector, when we make an investment in stock, and then the stock pays us a dividend, the cause and effect relationship between the money paid for the stock and the financial return received is explicit. It is contractual and legally provable, right down to the penny.

According to the existing material paradigm, nonprofit financial returns are implicit. As the nonprofit sector operates today, no mechanism exists for explicit financial returns. And this is how people believe—it is in the mindset of most people that you can't get an explicit financial return from a donation to a nonprofit.

In fact, this mindset maintains a segregation between donors and grant recipients. The way charitable grant giving is currently done, the donors are (with only minor exceptions) an entirely different group than the grant recipients.

But what about the financing of industry? Industrial financing is not currently done via the nonprofit sector. Here's why.

The capital raising mechanisms within the nonprofit sector (as it currently operates) are inadequate for the financing of industry, because of the inherent limitation in the amount of funds that people are willing to donate, without any hope of an explicit financial return.

Traditionally, people are not interested in donating their money for the purpose of funding large industrial projects. The concept is even laughable. When people donate money, they want to donate for a good cause and industrial projects are rarely perceived to fit that description. Most executives have never even considered the concept of operating an industrial project from the nonprofit sector.

The nonprofit sector as it operates today is incapable of meeting the capital investment needs of industry. Therefore, entrepreneurs and executives seeking capital investment to finance industrial projects are forced into the for-profit sector and all the evils inherent in it.

Even the "financial miracles" that get mysteriously returned to nonprofit donors usually come through mechanisms within the for-profit sector. Why? Because that's where the vast majority of the economic activity is happening. God uses the mechanisms that we humans have created. In the above example where the $10,000 church donation implicitly returned a $50,000 profit from the sale of stock, the financial return came directly out of the for-profit sector.

When we create new mechanisms, God uses them. Ten years ago, if a person had an accident on a rural road and needed to summon help, God used angels to mysteriously guide those nearby to the scene of the accident. Today, the victim pulls out his cell phone and calls 911. The implicit angelic mechanism can now (in many such cases) be superceded by the explicit mechanism of the cell phone. Indeed, God loves explicit mechanisms!

DCGYIF provides God with a profound new explicit mechanism. By ending the segregation between donors and grant recipients, DCGYIF overcomes the fundamental obstacle within the nonprofit sector—the inability of donors to receive an explicit financial return.

The capital raising mechanism of DCGYIF operates within the nonprofit sector in a manner that provides Angel member donors with the hope of an explicit financial return in the form of future grants to fund their Angelic Missions. This makes DCGYIF capable of financing large-scale Sacred industrial Projects.

The introduction of a mechanism of providing explicit financial returns within the nonprofit sector is a fundamental economic change. It offers new hope for the evolution of industry in the direction of healing humanity and creating Heaven on Earth.

It's time for the Angels to triumph.

Tens of millions of human angels live on this planet. These angels have beautiful dreams of good works they wish to undertake to reduce the suffering of humanity. They dream of undertaking noble, worthy humanitarian missions, but they are effectively blocked due to lack of funds. So they spend much of their precious time making a living for employers who don't care about the purity of their hearts. They come with Love, but are reduced to working for greed.

DCGYIF makes it possible for Angels to make sacred investments that later yield grants to fund their Angelic Missions. This will open the way for a great wave of Love to bless this planet.

Because the DCGYIF funding process is neither encumbered by securities laws nor subject to income taxation, and because it is capable of reaching the general public (without the extreme limitations on publicity imposed by securities laws), DCGYIF comprises a practical mechanism for the financing of large-scale Sacred Industrial Projects.

Indeed, tens of thousands of geniuses live on this plant. Many of these geniuses are angels who have sacred technological gifts to offer to our civilization. Many of them have attempted to mount the challenges of entrepreneurship to deliver their gifts, but most get blocked from raising sufficient capital. They confront a financial system that simply doesn't care about the purity of their hearts or the sacredness of their work. They come with Love, but get rebuffed by greed.

DCGYIF makes it possible for angel geniuses to create Sacred Industrial Projects that are capitalized by sacred investments from large numbers of Angels. (Note: AngelBase is the first Sacred Industrial Project, and no others yet exist. The Legacy of the Angels has not yet developed its policies concerning the introduction of additional Sacred Industrial Projects.)

DCGYIF will thus create a substantial new category of economic activity.

A great spiritual awakening is in the process of happening on this planet, and it is going to accelerate. As people wake up spiritually, they will become less attracted to "securities" investment and more attracted to sacred investment. Likewise, they will be less attracted to the products and services of traditional industry, and more attracted to the products and services of Sacred Industry.

The economic shift that occurs will be driven by the rate at which people wake up spiritually. And it's going to be an explosion. The Legacy of the Angels stands ready to capture the sacred leadership of what is destined to be the most significant economic change in modern history — from greed to Love.
