The Setup: Four people came together before the bidding started.Each committed $100 upfront—no hesitation, no back-and-forth.Just clarity and alignment.This is the foundation of the 4.25/4 model:Pre-aligned capital + unified action.
The Move: They entered the auction as one team.When the moment arrived—they bid.And they won at $300.No scrambling, no second-guessing.They were already aligned before the decision.
The Extra: After winning, one person added another $100—unprompted, with no discussion.That’s the “.25” in 4.25/4—the extra generosity, the move beyond obligation.
The Breakdown
$300 winning bid ÷ 4 people = $75 each
$100 additional contribution = transparent add-on
Total impact: $400 to the charity.Clean. Accountable. Immediate.
Why It WorkedBecause everything was decided before the moment:
Trust was established upfront
Capital was pre-committed
Action was unified
No delays. No friction.Just alignment → action → impact.
What It ProvedIn one rooftop golf event, with just four people:
A charity received $400 instantly
The group demonstrated real-time coordination
A repeatable model was born
The TakeawayIt’s not about the amount.It’s about the mechanism.You don’t need scale.You need alignment.
Run it anywhere. Repeat it everywhere.
