Caution · read before raising
- Contents rise. A raise must top the standing raise by at least 5%. The first raise in a jar is at least 1,000 $RAISEJAR. Your raise goes on top and the dial goes back to 10:00.
- Topping hurts a little. When someone tops you, 80% of your raise is credited back to you at once. The other 20% stays in the jar as the cut.
- Stand still to collect. Ten quiet minutes and the jar closes. The standing raise gets itself back plus the whole cut. Anyone may close it; the wallet on top cannot top itself.

Raises of 1,000, 2,000, 3,000, 5,000 and 8,000 each get topped. Each gets 80% back (the 8,000 gets 6,400) and leaves 20%: a 3,800 cut. Then 12,000 goes on top with 0:52 on the dial and nobody tops it for ten minutes. It collects 12,000 + 3,800 = 15,800. The next jar opens empty.
