Our Ideal Superstar - Kickstarter Stats and Success

I must say that if their is a corporation out their that I look up to, it MUST be KICKSTARTER. Image result for kickstarter Kickstarter has helped so many people and projects make their dreams come true, and some became billionaires even. Like for example Oculus VR Headset that raised $2.4 Million dollars on Kickstarter and then got bought out by Facebook Mark Zuckerberg. Real company like Kickstarter do amazing things. They reincorporated Kickstarter as a Benefit Corporation in 2015. Benefit Corporations are for-profit companies that are obligated to consider the impact of their decisions on society, not only shareholders. I don't know too many other Benefit Corporations out there? Kickstarter is really a pioneer in it's own right. Now, let's look at the Crowdfunding Stats in real-time.
