The short version

Fortune is a sponsor group of 2 issuers that PartnerFacts links to one sponsor (shared people, same business address; automatic match from the filings), filing 3 Form D filings between Oct 2024 and Apr 2026.

What this means One team, 2 deal companies, about 2 years of track record in SEC filings. We link the companies because the same people or address appear on their forms — tap "Request a correction" if that is wrong.

Combined reported sold: $1.55M to 4 investors (latest filing per issuer). Industries as reported: "Other" (2). Issuers are based in WI (2).

What this means $1.55M raised across the group, about $388K per investor. Amounts come from each company's latest Form D; they are what the sponsor reported, not audited figures.

Principal people: Eric Rupert (2 issuers, executive officer and director), Jessica Benish (2 issuers, executive officer and director) and Sam McDaniel (2 issuers, executive officer and director).

What this means The person on the most companies is usually the one running the show; their page lists every deal.

Activity: 1 new offering in the last 12 months; latest filing Apr 1, 2026.

What this means still raising money this year.

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA), property records (NYC, FL, IL and TX counties) — 1 court case matching the name, 2 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 3 records came back. Each one is listed below with a link to the original document and a line saying why it matched. A name match is not proof it is the same person or company — read the why line and the document. Being sued or named in a release is an accusation, not a finding.

We compared 3 public filings for Fortune and found 5 differences: Form D filed 29 days after the first sale; Offering amount changed between filings; and more below.

What this means These are differences between the sponsor's own SEC filings — both values, dates and sources are listed in Key records, section 4. Most have ordinary explanations; ask the sponsor.

4. Differences between public sources

No comparisons published

What is compared

No public statement by this sponsor group has been collected yet, so there is nothing to compare. Sources compared: the sponsor's own website (known from the issuer's own filings — Form C issuer website, EDGAR company profile — an approved profile claim or Form ADV Item 1.I of its matched adviser) · SEC Form D · SEC Form ADV (IAPD) · Internet Archive · No website is on file for this sponsor group yet.

5 differences found between the filings for Fortune (compared 3 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Sep 18, 2024 – Oct 17, 2024

Form D filed 29 days after the first sale — Fortune Favors LLC

The filing says the first sale was Sep 18, 2024. The Form D was filed Oct 17, 2024 — 29 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 14 days past that.

What this means A late notice is common and carries no penalty by itself. It is worth asking the sponsor why the paperwork lagged.

Sources
Note · Oct 17, 2024 – Nov 20, 2024

Offering amount changed between filings — Fortune Favors LLC

The Oct 17, 2024 filing says $1,500,000 offered; the Nov 20, 2024 Form D/A says $2,000,000.

What this means The target raise changed. Raising the cap is common when a deal grows; ask whether the extra money has the same terms and use.

Sources
Note · Sep 18, 2024 – Nov 20, 2024

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Fortune Favors LLC (latest filing Nov 20, 2024)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Nov 20, 2024 (first sale Sep 18, 2024). It reports $550,000 sold of $2,000,000 offered. No later amendment is in our index as of Oct 24, 2026.

What this means SEC rules expect a yearly amendment while an offering is still going. The raise may simply have ended — a Form D does not say when it closed. Ask the sponsor whether the offering closed, when, and at what amount.

Sources
Note · Nov 20, 2024 – Apr 1, 2026

Member companies were formed in 2 different states

Wisconsin (1), Delaware (1) — out of 2 member issuers. The odd ones out: FF Interco, Inc. (Delaware).

What this means Sponsors often form each deal company in Delaware or Wyoming no matter where the property is. A mix is common; it just tells you which state's rules each company lives under.

Sources
What is compared

What is compared: every Form D and D/A we hold for this subject, side by side — filing dates vs. first-sale dates (the 15-day rule), amendment timing on open offerings (the yearly-amendment expectation), amounts sold, investor counts, offering amounts and minimums across amendments, industry and size bands, addresses, how each person's name and role is written, paid sellers' CRD numbers, and (for groups) where the member companies were formed and sit. Everything is as filed by the issuer; the SEC does not check it. Differences are common and usually have ordinary explanations — we show both values, the dates, and the source so you can ask. As of Oct 24, 2026.

5. Money to insiders

"To insiders" = gross proceeds used for payments to executive officers, directors or promoters. "—" = not reported on that filing. Amounts marked (est.) were reported as estimates. "Paid to sell it" = sales compensation recipients named on that filing (Item 12), each linked to FINRA BrokerCheck when a CRD number is reported.
