=== Start-Up Costs ===
Noisebridge needs money to run. Quite a lot, actually. Its about $5,000/mo.


This section is for start-up costs (known or estimated). Story so far:
<big>'''[[Donate or Pay Dues| Click here for info on how to pay your Membership Dues]].'''</big>
 
* Move-in cost for space : $4000
* Three months' rent reserve : $5925 at $1975/mo rent
* Cost of incorporation as non-profit + 501c3 app : $2000
* Initial insurance cost : $500 - $2500 per year
* Initial cost for drinks to sell : ??
* Initial cost for space improvements, making keys, etc. : ??
* Noisebridge business Costco card : $50
* Initial equipment costs : ??
 
Estimate so far for start-up cost: $14475 + ??.
 
[[DavidMolnar]] ideally would like to see 2x whatever this estimated number is as
starting capital, but that may be overkill.
