Come on, that's one of the oldest "scams" in the book
The quickest way to give one's self "credibility" is to create a "group" that you appoint yourself president of. Now you can legally claim your status in the world as a President or CEO on a resume or loan app or whatever.

A local news organization in my area created an "awards association" that gave itself a bunch of awards. It later then placed in it's TV commercials "winner of 14 so and so awards". Sounded impressive until other media outlets found out and reported on it when asked. The awards association quickly, and quietly, went away.....

Give us something REAL to work with.
