Per an email between Mr. Schroeder and IFRR Wiki Co-Founder (Jessica Sandi): "I am self funded and have taken no funds from any party, no loans and no contributions"
Quote: “I want to end this f–king drug thing and I want to make Colorado the number one tech state in the world. So we’re going to put the money where the mouth is and we’re not going to be a bunch of dopers in Colorado.”
Is currently in Arizona "working on a big corporate deal with patents he owns."
