His GoFundMe fund is now up to $315,000. That's just nuts. He purchased his car today as well. Looks like a 2015 Ford Fusion? People are still donating every few minutes... why? the page clearly shows that he has his car, why keep giving him money?
His story just doesn't add up. He obviously has some kind of mental deficiency if he can't manage to save up for a car in 10 years... He is making well above minimum wage and is splitting rent/mortgage with his longtime girlfriend. People with minimum wage jobs have cars all the time. Or at least a bike... The only thing I can think of to explain his situation is that is actually dumb. Like, really, truly not a smart person.
I mean, think of all of his options he has had in 10 YEARS!
-Get a new job closer to his house
-Get a new apartment/house closer to his work
-Save for a car
-Buy a cheapo bike
-Does his girlfriend have a car? Can she help?
-Buy a pair of shoes for the walking that aren't WORK BOOTS.
If somebody can't do ONE of those things in 10 FREAKIN YEARS, there MUST be something seriously wrong with you mentally. I see no other possibility. You might think medical bills... well, i doubt it considering he hasn't missed a day of work in 10. That's tough to do when you have to go see a doctor who costs as much as a car would be if saving for 10 years..
Ugh, this makes me so angry that people think this is a true charity case of a man "down on his luck" doing nothing wrong to deserve what he has "gone through"... Me, as an upstanding person has done the right thing and saved for a car to get to and from work.. Why can't I be rewarded???
