HUMANS NEEDED TO HELP CREATE 75 NONHUMAN BILLIONAIRES — WITHOUT A.I.
The Project Runs for 250 Years With 25 New IPs Every 12 Years. Changes in the Physical Appearance, Language, and Culture of the IPs, Intellectual Properties Will Be Made to Fit the Needs of the Effort as Long as Humans Do Not Kill the IPs.
This project begins with a simple idea: human creativity still has value.
Rather than asking people to send money, the project is designed to create opportunities for people to contribute thoughts, stories, skills, connections and creative work that may become part of books, television shows & new intellectual properties, or IPs.
DO NOT SEND MONEY to anyone claiming to represent this project or promising payment on its behalf.
THREE THINGS TO KNOW
THE GOAL IS BIGGER THAN A SINGLE BOOK OR TV SHOW. The long-term vision calls for the creation of 25 nonprofit-focused nonhuman IP billionaires and 50 profit-making nonhuman IP billionaires. Unlike any one person, business or government, successful intellectual properties can appear in books, television and other forms of entertainment around the clock, across generations and in multiple languages. Think of characters such as Superman, Winnie-the-Pooh and Pokémon. The project points to long-lived IPs like these as examples of how characters can continue creating cash flow, recognition and value for decades. The larger vision is to eventually reach as much as 55% of the world's population in 12 languages at the cost of a book and a streaming service. The starting point is 12 $100 million fundraisers, beginning with three books and followed by television shows. An initial group of 25 new IPs would be introduced, with additional characters and shows added as the project grows.
CREATIVITY STARTS BEFORE COMPLETE KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING. The project uses what Ron Clark calls the Einstein and Picasso Method of Creativity. The Einstein Method begins by entering the unknown and staying there longer than others, using imagination and an inspired curiosity rather than waiting until every answer is known. The Picasso Method adds the willingness to rediscover the freedom and imagination of childhood. Picasso described his own creative journey by saying that it took him four years to paint like Raphael and a lifetime to paint like a child. The goal is not to begin with all the answers. It is to create an environment where thoughts can become ideas and ideas can grow into something of value.
PEOPLE CREATE MORE WHEN THEY WORK TOGETHER. Audiences, volunteers, writers, filmmakers, newspaper professionals, businesses, nonprofits, investors and small teams can all have a place in the project. A thought may become an idea. An idea may become a scene. A scene may grow into an episode, a book, an intellectual property or even another television show.
THE BIGGER VISION
Warren Buffett has long looked for companies whose future value could become far greater than the price required to acquire them. This project applies a similar idea to intellectual property. The first group of 25 new IPs is projected by the project to eventually reach a combined net worth of $1 trillion, averaging $40 billion each within five years of their first season. The proposed model provides audiences and nonprofits with opportunities connected to 70% of the project's cash profits. The remaining 30% would be reinvested to continue growing the project and its intellectual properties. Members of the Giving Pledge, celebrities and other participants could also receive percentages connected to the value of IPs for their efforts. The larger goal is to use the growth of these properties to help address problems of all sizes without relying on tax money, debt or a political agenda. One proposed example is affordable housing. A pilot would begin with 100 families in Mountain View, California, and 100 families in McKinney, Texas. Episodes in two television shows would follow the effort while creating value for the participating communities. The project's long-term vision is for the model to eventually be adapted in as many as 40 countries.
BEFORE THE FIRST TV SHOW AIRS
Three books come first. They would be written, published and sold as part of a $100 million fundraiser benefiting nonprofits that help provide content. Two books for teens and adults, "Acts of Kindness" and "Memories with a Smile," are designed around hundreds of real examples contributed by individuals, families and communities. The third book, "A Beaver Faces Danger," is for first-time readers and parents. It follows a beaver facing an eagle, a bear and a wolf while building a dam. These books introduce stories, experiences and characters that can later become part of television shows.
SEVEN SHOWS — ONE CONNECTED PROJECT
BUFFETT BLUFFS
"Buffett Bluffs" is a TV sitcom built around neighbors who turn creativity into action. In the pilot concept, a mother learns she has cancer. Neighbors Jimmy Horowitz, a Grammy-recognized songwriter, and Don Hale, a playwright, offer to create a musical play as a fundraiser for the family. Jason Van Sickel, a five-time emmy-award-winning director and editor, suggests making a documentary about the neighborhood effort. As rehearsals continue, cast members, special guests and audiences contribute ideas. Some of those ideas can become real projects, stories and opportunities. The show also introduces a cottage-industry model that increases the value of the project's intellectual properties.NEWS TIPS
"News Tips" focuses on another problem: newspapers struggling to survive. The concept begins when a cast member approaches a small newspaper with a story and a paid advertisement. The owner explains that the paper may soon go out of business but agrees to help. That conversation leads to a new idea: use paid advertising combined with compelling local stories that people actually want to read. Real editors and reporters would help provide content and direction. The model begins with communities of different sizes, including Johnston City, Illinois, along with Johnson City, Tennessee & Texas, and other locations in Florida, Georgia, California and Monaco. The goal is to help newspapers grow readership and ad revenue, protect local jobs, rebuild trust between newspapers and their communities and provide new opportunities for local businesses.2 TO 5 OF A KIND
Young people become the focus of "2 to 5 of a Kind." A middle-school creative-writing class brings together 6th-, 7th- & 8th-grade students who work as a team. Students share thoughts, keep journals and develop ideas together. Older students help lead the group. Younger students eventually take their place, allowing the creative process to continue from one class to another and eventually into high school. Their writings can become books, scenes and television content. The project says approximately 90% of the IPs being developed originated with two boys creating characters between the ages of 5 and 16. The idea is: imagination is part of every child.NOT 1 OF THE 6
"Not 1 of the 6" follows seven financially independent adults with the goal of helping others work toward financial independence. Each season, the seven would guide 12 participants as they learn how intellectual properties, books and entertainment can be developed to produce long-term value and potential passive income.
KINDNESS & SMILES
"Kindness & Smiles" grows from the books "Acts of Kindness" and "Memories with a Smile." Each 44-minute program would feature three locations. At each location, a family or team would work to create value in the lives of others before themselves. The combination of emotion, accomplishment and real acts of kindness is intended to inspire audiences to create their own efforts. One pilot story comes from Ron Clark's family history. In 1894, five-year-old Walter Kelton went to work pouring water onto a grinding stone. A full pitcher was difficult for a five-year-old to carry, so two older boys carried half a pitcher, plus their own full pitcher. Walter remembered their kindness. Later, when a new worker's lunch was stolen as a prank, Walter shared one of his own biscuits and eggs with the man. A small act shown to a child became a lifelong habit for Walter and his family. From kindness, to memory, to story, to creative content — is at the heart of the show.
BUILD A BILLIONAIRE
"Build a Billionaire" brings together the content, characters and audiences developed through the first five programs. The larger plan connects those efforts with millions of nonprofits and seeks to eventually reach 55% of the world's population in 12 languages. The show explores imagination, curiosity, teamwork and intellectual property as tools for building long-term value. The project's larger purpose is not simply to create fictional characters. It is to demonstrate ways those characters and the audiences surrounding them can help humans approach real problems differently.
BUILD A TRILLIONAIRE
The seventh show expands the scale again. Proposed subjects include mining asteroids, settling Mars, increasing participation in a 16-hour workweek, and helping teams of like-minded people create more in less time and at lower cost. Families, investors, friends and customers connected to major businesses build models for success. A major idea can begin with someone no one has heard of yet, and has many times in history.
WHAT COULD YOUR IDEA BECOME?
The project proposes specific rewards for creative contributions that are approved and used. A scene accepted into one of the seven shows is valued by the project at $5,000 in cash or $50,000 in IP net worth. An approved episode is valued at $25,000 in cash or $250,000 in IP net worth. A creator whose approved television show runs for one season is proposed to receive $100,000 in cash or $1 million in IP net worth. The project's projection estimates that value could reach $20 million after five years. A person who connects a creator with an investor and becomes a procurer is proposed to receive $1 million in net worth distributed across five IPs. Those IPs do not have to be connected to the particular show that person helped create.
WHERE DID THIS BEGIN?
According to Ron Clark, spokesperson & a member of the Carterville, Illinois Chamber of Commerce, the project grew from the efforts of 518 volunteers who agreed to contribute ten years without pay, recognition or legal claim to their work.

In 1942, King Neptune, a Southern Illinois pig, helped raise $19 million for the World War II effort. Today, eight of his descendants are becoming animated characters in a new creative project. Inspired by Marvin Glass, whose team created 100 board games and 400 toys from 1960 to 1974, and by Einstein and Picasso’s creativity methods, a father and two sons created 110 animated characters and 24 books for first-time readers and parents from 1985 to 1999.
The project also demonstrates the enduring value of intellectual property. In 2025, the 87-year-old Superman generated an estimated $100 million in cash profits. Reba McEntire, Durant, Oklahoma, and First United Bank volunteers provide another inspiration after documenting 1.7 million acts of kindness over six years. The vision anticipates a future in which Paramount and Warner Bros. unite and Elon Musk becomes a trillionaire.
Beginning in August 2026, the plan calls for three books a year for five years, seven new TV shows, and 12 books and 12 shows supporting 12 $100 million fundraisers and 25 new intellectual properties. The proposed model gives audiences and nonprofits 70% of cash profits and reinvests 30%. Each group of 25 characters is projected to reach a combined value of $1 trillion, averaging $40 billion each by 2030.
Every 12 to 15 years, another 25 characters could launch in 12 languages across 41 countries, eventually reaching 55% of the world’s population for the next 250 years. Anyone who speaks English can contribute ideas, stories, skills, connections, sponsorship or volunteer support.
