I also was thinking the Friend could be a gambling addict, but I didn't want to say it "aloud," so I put,"Didn't actually NEED," the money to give him the benefit of the doubt.Quote:

Actually, I meant "Diplomatic," when I said,"Give him the benefit of the doubt." The Friend could be reading this Website as we speak, so he might be offended if I said""Gambling Addict," and I chose the more diplomatic than "Played free money he didn't NEED.Quote:

Here is the thread I first mentioned the fucked up Foxwoods Casino Fiasco. I found it while looking for a thread I started about some random number giving me false Gulfstream Park Casino free play offers, and then straight up insulting me.

I raised my eyebrows at that too. :confused: He would have been better off saying something like,"I was hoping to win the money back that was already lost."Quote:

I wonder if the guy who got fucked over by his Friend out of the money for his Family Heirlooms could just try to find cheap replicas of his Family Heirlooms at thrift stores and tell his descendants that these are the Family Heirlooms? Some thrift stores do get donated antiques like antique jewelry. He could just find say an emerald ring someone donated to a thrift store and tell his descendants that this is a family heirloom from say 1880.
If he was about to get evicted as you say, he really shouldn’t be having any descendants.Quote:

There are a LOT of rags to riches stories. Lots of people were homeless and poor and ended up being Wealthy CEO's he could be evicted and the next year by a Multimillionaire or even a Multimillionaire. So his Descendants would hopefully be able to live off his wealth if he became a Multimillionaire or Multi billionaire.Quote:

He could always just dose his descendants with a strong hallucinogenic so they think they saw heirlooms.Quote:

Is that what your "memory" tells you?
Bwa ha ha ha
No, you are simply saying this bullshit to reinforce your own flawed belief / hope that gambling will enable YOU to have a better life, a life of wealth and leisure.
I have wealth and leisure and it didn't come from a hand pay: I worked hard and actually earned what I've got.
Just admit that you are helpless in the face of your addiction and that you'll always be what you are now and run with it.
Tasha, when you say that there were lots of people that were homeless & poor & became wealthy CEOs can you name one of them?
John Paul Dejoira was homeless and poor and became a wealthy CEO. He started the world wide renowed and very lucrative John/ Paul Mitchell haircare line. He is worth 3 billion. :)Quote:

Of course when you look at some of these business people who went to Harvard & Wharton like Alissa Heinerscheid the former Bud Light marketing executive, you’d probably end up with better corporate leadership recruiting from skid row.
So what?Quote:

WTF, Tasha...
Eh, I think John Paul DeJoria is exaggerating his homeless period. He did spend some time in foster care, and may have been slightly down and out at times, but he apparently remained employed albeit with odd jobs at all times. Something like the way DarkOz probably exaggerates the period and extent of time he was homeless, as well as how well he does or how much he makes at multi carding.
Now, one of my ex-gfs her family's summer home was over there in Camden, Maine ("Camden by the sea, Rockland by the smell") and she showed me Charles Cawley's (founder of MBNA) home in Camden where the hedged regal looking fences just went on and on. What she told me was that Cawley was at some point in his life some kind of beatnik vagrant whom the Maine state police gave a one way drive out of the town of Camden and state, as a persona non grata, and to exact his "success is the best revenge" against the town, he came back in great style like Jay Gatsby and bought up and built up the largest home in the area. I never verified the story.
You are probably right.Quote:

In reality he had just gone through a divorce & lived out of an RV attached to his truck while traveling to different stage acting jobs & was still fairly well known, so not quite homeless as in a bum on the sidewalk sleeping in piss.
