Does the USFA owe you money?

The travails of elite athletes and coaches are well known. I am curious about the extent that others may have been impacted by the USFA budgetary problems.

Here are some general categories:
Referees
Armorers
Trainers
Team Cadre members
Suppliers
Local organizers of NACs
Divisions
Equipment suppliers

I'm sure I missed others, so please respond accordingly.

On the eve of the Summer nationals, anyone have the courage to come forward?

I'm sure many are owed.... but while I know that it's bad to sweep problems under the rug, so to speak, it seems like right now, on the eve of summer nationals, we should be focussed on getting through nationals. There is a time and a place for everything, and we're already in a deep hole. Let's not dig deeper by making everyone extra angry right before the angriest week and a half of the USFA year.

Mayhaps I am beyond lucky, don't gamble and don't do lottery, so hard to find out; but I've been paid with no issues whatsoever in a somewhat reasonable manner.

Now there's a way to bring people to your side.

I am not currently owed any money due to the life membership offer, in fact I currently owe a bit on that, but the positions will be reversed after my Summer Nationals accounts are applied.
