I understand that, but the same argument could be said for Trump: he has buildings and debts and a certain lack of liquidity as well. I mean, for very different reasons, but still a lack of liquid assets. I'm more than happy to buy a t-shirt and support Christian, which probably seems just as incomprehensible to some subset of Trump supporters as their Trump donations seems to me.
Those are very different circumstances. Selig probably could have raised a million dollars if his freedom relied on it, hell even I could do that. He couldn't raise a million dollars to fund a business venture knowing it probably wouldn't be viable as a continuing business due to new costs.
