Risks & Mitigations

• High start-up costs → Secure angel investors or bridge loan from affluent early members
• Membership recruitment → Leverage Master Saneiv's existing following + $50k Year 1 targeted marketing (private events, affluent networks, upgraded social media)
• Tax status → Retain specialist attorney early; structure as genuine religious nonprofit for potential exemptions (donations tax-deductible for members, possible property tax relief)
