Potato Salad: I'm at a loss of words

I really freakin' wish I could have thought to be this genius........

Ummm so this guy made a kickstarter, as a joke, to make some potato salad.

He was asking for $10.

Here are his stretch goals:

$35 - I will make 4x as much Potato Salad. I know $40 isn't 4x $10, but you guys have earned it.

$75 - Pizza Party!

$100 - I will try two different Potato Salad recipes.

After he had earned $100...

He made new stretch goals:

$250 - Better mayonnaise (from the natural foods section)

$300 - Call a chef to get a better recipe

$350 - Make way more potato salad and probably do a third recipe.

After getting over $350 to make potato salad...

New stretch goals:

$1000: I'll do a live stream of the potato salad making

$1200: I'll pay someone to film a thank-you video for all of my backers!

After blowing $1000 out of the water...again...to make potato salad

$3000: My kitchen is too small! I will rent out a party hall and invite
the whole internet to the potato salad party (only $10 and above will be
allowed in the kitchen)! The internet loves potato salad! Let's show
them that potato salad loves the internet!!

There has not been a new update since, however, he has reached an ASTONISHING

$53,253
Edit: had a typo, sorry!

To make freakin' potato salad...

Goddammit, we could all have 13s by now guys!

I saw this today as well. Amazing. $53,294 that could have been used on something actually useful.
