Was honestly wondering what all those yard signs popping up around town meant and looked into it a but more and now im here. I have 1 question. While i love the CFC games and help funding them sounds great, this seems to have its roots more down the line of an investment rather than a donation. So my question is this. Whats the benefit of owning more than 1 share? I saw that discounts and voting rights are given to those who buy at least 1 share but why buy more? Do these carry a market value, or do owners also receive some for of dividend? Would love to receive a more clear answer as the website and video are a bit vague on what it means by \"finacial rights\" and the \"equity\" that comes from owning a share.","author_name":"Keenan A Brown","votes":3,"created_at":"2019-05-15T16:36:25Z","canonical_url":"https://wefunder.com/chattanoogafc#question-53056","answers":[{"id":53653,"entity_id":"wefunder:comment:53653","answer":"Yes, there are multiple tiers of benefits, which are described on the site!
