ROCKFORD 134 Posted December 7, 2017 I'm very cynical of people asking for money. Why? Bcoz a lot of people suck, are w/out conscious and are born liars. That being said, I'm also one of the most compassionate people you'll ever meet. I usually give something if I have it on me.... Especially if they have a dog, damn - I'm a sucker for the pooches. note to self: get a dog. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wiffleball 4,655 Posted September 5, 2018 Yeah, sounds like the money is gone. There's a hearing later today. I don't think this is a clear-cut story. Sounds like the dude has a drug problem. But it sounds like the couple are shady thieves too. Dammitt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TimmySmith 2,782 Posted September 5, 2018 Much like "A Simple Plan" all 3 people had their lives going before all this. Poor drug addict didn't ask for any of it. He was homeless becaise he couldn't handle $20, much less $400k. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wiffleball 4,655 Posted September 5, 2018 Well said. I did read that GoFundMe had set aside 20 grand just to make sure this guy had basic housing in shower and food and stuff. While all this got litigated. They're also looking at and talking about rehab facilities. Ironically, the above probably has a much better chance of doing this guy is some good than the four hundred grand or whatever it was. The couple is a receptionist and a carpenter. And just coincidentally, after all this money came in, they were able to buy a BMW for Cash & Go on exotic vacations. I know nobody's innocent here other than well-intentioned owners I guess. But of the two parties, at least the homeless guy has a legitimate problem. As far as I know being a completely immoral lying Thief isn't a recognized medical condition. And there ain't no rehab for that. Other than jail. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Baker Boy 1,490 Posted November 15, 2018 Anyone who contributed when it got to 50k is a sucker. That's more than enough to get anyone on their feet. Should have moved on to another cause.If you contribute to go fund me for anyone you dont know or are associated with you are an idiot! Didnt anyone think this story was fishy? Anyone who fell for this BS deserves to have their money taken from them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
