If you've JUST met someone here and they asked you to send them an expensive gift card, would you do it?

[FunkyMonkee]

[Fireguy17]

oh hell no, SCAM!
Don't do it, no matter what they say or promise.
They are good at doing that because that is their job.
Either they get it all or are working for someone else and only get a little bit, it is a SCAM!
If you feel like sending someone money, send it to me, and at least I will be honest enough to let you know what I spent it on.
You won't receive anything but a thank you.

[FunkyMonkee]

I know! My aunt did that a number of times!! She fell for ALL KINDS of scams!! I told her it's a scam, her friends told her, my friends to her, total strangers told her, the people at her bank told her, Western Union told her, the police told her!! She WOULD NOT LISTEN!! "No, they're legit! They're trying to help me get back all the other money those scammers stole from me!" By repeatedly paying THEM thousands of dollars to do it? And then, she'd be on the phone with them saying, "MY mother never raised no fools!!" And I'm sitting there across from her thinking, "OH YES, she did!!!" One of the scams they got her on was; they sent her one of those metal brief cases with combination locks on them and, supposedly, a million dollars inside along wit an exploding dye pack. They told her that she needed to pay them who knows how many thousands of dollars to get the combination so she could open it because, if she tried to open the case or break it open the dye pack would go off making the money worthless!! A guy at MY bank told me there's only gonna be a couple reams of paper in there! Friends of ours broke it open and, inside, was nothing but 2 reams of paper!! That's AFTER she gave them a ton of money!! I still have the case and the reams downstairs!!
Anyway, if I had the money to spare, I'd give you what you needed!!

[Fireguy17]

That is sad how they prey on those that don't have it to give.
I just money for car parts for my classics.

[FunkyMonkee]

I know!! All they had to do was leave me alone and things would've worked out a lot better!!

[SnowedIn]

Not. A. Chance. I had someone do that about six weeks ago. And then get mad at me when I wouldn't.

[SnowedIn]

yep! her! played the military card. :(

[SnowedIn]

Amazon, my friend, will deliver wherever you want them to. (Although the U. S. Military has a pretty awesome [if slow] mail system.) But, yeah. smh.

[FunkyMonkee]

Even in a battlefield?

[SnowedIn]

Amazon, no; Military yes. Not necessarily to the literal front line, but the headquarters units will receive and pass down the line. For me on a ship, we had fairly regular mail and package delivery.

[TacosRAwesome]

No. I wouldn't send one to my own mother why would I send it to a random stranger.

[humanearth]

Hell No, I'm not falling for "I'll give fake love for expensive shit" game

[Draco3471]

I don't send anything to anyone I've never met in person before but if I meet someone in person I would do anything in the world for them including the shirt off my back

[Anonymous]

No, but if someone was honest (and due to myself being rich) I might decide to help them.

[FunkyMonkee]

Same here but, sadly, I'M the one in need of help, now!
If I was a billionaire, I'd LOVE to walk down the street and hand homeless people a few hundred grand and say, "Here! Go buy yourself a house".
There's a guy near here that goes downtown every Christmas time and hands out hundred dollar bills to people. I'd love to be able to do that or even to help him do it! I'd LOVE to be rich but NOT out of greed!! I value records more than money!! On one hand, I'm just tired of being poor! On the other, I'd love be able to help out others that REALLY need it!! My ex-sisters are the greedy ones!! They stole MY house, most of my belongings, all of mom's money and kicked me to the curb!! And, thanks to my stupid aunt who took me in and then threw away over $10,000,000 to scammers, including THIS house and her car, I might lose THIS house, too!! EVERYBODY TOLD HER they are scammers but she refused to believe us!! Now, I'M stuck using more than every penny I've got left to buy this house back from the bank!!
The last few years of mom's life, I took care of her!! They wanted to put her in a home!! If they cashed her monthly checks, one of them would put it in mom's checking account but wouldn't let mom touch it!! But SHE could spend as much of it as she wanted!! If the other one cashed mom's check, she'd run right to the store and blow over $100 on groceries FOR HERSELF WITHOUT asking mom if she could!! If I was going to the store, mom would make me take a $20 from her purse. Just to keep from arguing with her about it, I'd take one, go to the store, use MY money and, the next time I'd take her to the bathroom, I'd sneak her 20 back into her wallet!! And, when she got her money from her checks, she ONLY trusted ME to put it in banking envelopes for her and hide them around the house so the girls couldn't find it!!

[FunkyMonkee]

Last month, I did some figuring and, although I forget my results, it came out to something like: if every billionaire in the world put just $1,000,000 into a pot that would be shared equally with everyone else on the planet, everyone would have well over a million dollars! There'd be no more starvation and struggling to stay afloat, financially, etc..
Anyway, I envy people like you that CAN help others that way!! About 3 years ago, I was in line at the store and some woman in front of me was a couple bucks short of what she needed to pay her tab and, I was just about to tell her, 'I'll pay for it for you!', and then, I realized, the only money I'VE got to my name is the loose change I just picked up at the drive through windows a few minutes before! That's all I was living on for several months because I ran out of money and couldn't find a job!!

[Opinion Owner]

The guy you mentioned that hands out 100 Dollar bills. If he's for real and not just doing it to look good, it's likely he will be able to help you with your situation. Although I still manage to tithe and seed at the moment, I have a lot going on (illness in the family). But I will take a note of your user ID and when I become even richer in the near future I will see how you're doing.

You said 'I was just about to tell her, 'I'll pay for it for you!', and then, I realized, the only money I'VE got to my name is the loose change I just picked up at the drive through windows a few minutes before! That's all I was living on for several months because I ran out of money and couldn't find a job!! '

This is where prayer, faith and God comes in. Having the faith to give your last because you know God's Kingdom will have you covered. After I learned this, everything changed. Scarcity is man-made, and abundance is God-made!

[Opinion Owner]

Indeed, poverty is man-made and something the few, who want to keep power, do all they can to keep others in it. Financially everything started to change after I started praying to God for help with finances after realizing that in God's Kingdom we were meant only for prosperity in all ways, including spiritual, financial and physical.

When having financial problems, most turn to the Bank, or friends, but turning to God and asking for help is what changed everything for me. Then I started to tithe and seed each month, even when it was a struggle. Then I started to notice little things like car insurance being renewed at a lower price, Car services and repairs costing less and being given freebies. I started to find I was given more than I ordered as well as being sent items with no record of being sent so couldn't even return them. Every little helps. Then after helping others in life I was given reward sometimes financially. I only helped them because I could.

It is through being generous and serving others that I've become richer for it but the key is I only ever did this to help others.

[Opinion Owner]

You said 'On one hand, I'm just tired of being poor! On the other, I'd love be able to help out others that REALLY need it!! My ex-sisters are the greedy ones!! They stole MY house'

There is much hidden from us. For example the quantum world, subliminal, wealth DNA frequencies etc. But only through prayer do I think we can truly break free from the poverty trap. Although it may seem that your sisters have gained your house they have in fact gained nothing and in time this is what will become of the house. You will see.

[FunkyMonkee]

I'm pretty sure he's real. They talk about him on t. v. every Christmas but, where do I find him? Only those he gives money to know what he looks like. All I could do was walk around downtown and hope to bump into him! Even if I did, I wouldn't want to sound like a beggar.
Well, thank you! That'd be quite nice of you. What's the illness? I MIGHT be able to help!
I wish I could get this house situation sorted out so I could bring my recording gear up here and start looking for more work! The bank's about to foreclose and I fear they'd kick me out and keep everything that's in the house!!

[FunkyMonkee]

In my case, poverty was woman-made!! I was doing fine `til my greedy ex-sisters took it all away from me!! And the older of the two lives and breathes the bible!! SHE'S the one that started all this!!
For me, power is having lots of records and knowing lots of stuff about them and music... and other trivia!
I had one friend help me out. He GAVE me $4200 but, I still insist on giving it back to him once I can afford it, again. If that day EVER comes!! I promised him that as soon as I get my check from the sale of MY house (the one they stole from me), I'd give him the money back! When I said that, I had no idea I was gonna have to use ALL OF IT to buy THIS house back from the bank! He's rich, too but, he's already helped me out so, I don't want to press it!
Exactly! I'm not in it (helping people) for any glory or praise! A thank you would suffice but, I'm not expecting it! About 10 years ago, I was at the library and found some girl's wallet on the top of the computer I was using. I took it home, got her contact info and told her that I found her wallet. There was also a 10 spot in it. I took it back to her the next day on my way home from work and waited `til she was satisfied that everything was in it and then, she decided to give me the 10. I refused it. I didn't do it for the money or any kind of reward (other than, maybe, a thank you), I just wanted to see to it she got her wallet back!
They say that karma pays you back 3-fold (some say 10-fold). Well, for all the good things I've done for people AND ANIMALS in my life, WHEN IS IT GONNA START COMING BACK MY WAY? Two days ago, some guy in a wheelchair needed pushed up a slight hill so, I did it! 2 weeks ago, I was walking through a store and saw a short older woman trying to reach something off the top shelf. She didn't ask or even see me coming but, I pulled it off the shelf, gave it to her, she thanked me and I went on my way!! And, now, here it is, Christmas and I'm completely alone again!!

[Opinion Owner]

The illness is not the problem, them not listening to all of the cures are the real issue!

You can find him or any other solutions through prayer. A friend of mine that was fed up with poverty has been doing this. Now she has 'too many' work offers, has been given a pay rise, put on a lower gas and electricity tariff.. the list never ends. We all rely too much on what we can see, when it's the unseen that is driving the wheels we see moving.

Here is another example. My friend was having major issues with employment. I was reading this book about Daily Decree's and it had a CD in the back that I didn't have any use for. I handed her the CD and she played it as she drove home. There was a chapter in it that had a 'new job' prayer and she recited it only adding in the area that she wanted to work in. A few days later she found a new job in the exact area and the person that left creating the vacancy was someone who hated her although through prayer that person became someone who also helped them.

[FunkyMonkee]

And, in the meantime, I've lost the house and half of my life!! Various collections I've had over the decades, nearly all of my memories, my band memorabilia that I was gonna put into the book I want to write about my years in the band, 2000 records (78's that I'll NEVER be able to replace!! I never even got the chance to make a list most of them so, I have NO idea what's there!!), loads of family memories I'll NEVER, EVER get back again!! That house has been in our family since 1936!! Mom wanted to see to it it STAYED in the family!! I'm the ONLY one that could've done that! Those two greedy, evil bitches have their own houses and my brother killed himself about 10 years ago!!

You said 'There was also a 10 spot in it.

I believe this is a mistake. When the universe decides to reward you for something you take it. I helped someone out just because I could. I didn't do it for the money but when they offered some money, I accepted because it's a gift. Remember, they are thanking you and accepting it will make them happy. This is a part of how you can become richer. Not only giving, but being able to receive in all ways. Not just when a friend offers something.

I've helped out more people than I can remember and never for the money but I learned to accept gifts in return (I used to refuse them). Remember, its also about how it makes them feel. That lady wanted to give you a gift as a reward and accepting it would have made her feel good.

You said 'They say that karma pays you back 3-fold (some say 10-fold). Well, for all the good things I've done for people AND ANIMALS in my life, WHEN IS IT GONNA START COMING BACK MY WAY?'

And the answer is when you start accepting all of it. Speaking of 10-Fold. You should read 'Seed Money - The Law of Tenfold Return and How it Works by John Hoshor' You can get the pdf or audio book for free.

[FunkyMonkee]

I know ALL ABOUT people not listening when I tell them of cures for this or that!! There's nearly 400 KNOWN NATURAL CURES for cancer and, every time I tell people about that, they refuse to believe me!! I used one of them to cure mom's cancer about 8 years ago!! She had HUGE purple and green welts all over her back and chest before we found out about her having cancer!! As soon as I found out about it, I went to the grocery store right next door to the hospital and bought the two things I'd need to cure it, went home, mixed the stuff up and, from the next day onwards, I'd go see her twice a day and make sure she took a spoonful of it each time!! After about 2 weeks, her Dr. told her, and I quote, "I don't know what you're doing and I don't WANT to know but, whatever it is, keep doing it because your cancer's going away!!". She refused to take chemo!! Within 2 months, her cancer was completely gone!!
Another of the cures can be found in Australia! It comes from Blushwood berries and it can cure even stage 4 cancer in 48 HOURS!!!
There's a guy in Florida that can practically cure strokes!! There's another Dr. here near me that can re-grown finger parts!!

[FunkyMonkee]

She looked like she felt as though she HAD to give it to me but, like I said, I'm not greedy! I had a job and head quite a bit saved up so, I didn't need it.

[Opinion Owner]

I think most people are conditioned to expect things to be complicated that when they hear these simple cancer cures, they can't believe them. The fact that the Doctor didn't even want to know what you were doing really says it all! DMSO is good for strokes too.

A friend of mine is currently curing their cataracts while everyone else is saying that surgery is the only option. They are using Can-C eye drops, Bilberry extract and meditation from 'you are the placebo joe dispenza'

It's because they've been told al their lives that chemo and radiation are the only things they can use to get rid of it. In the meantime, natural cures have been around for at least 100 years, now but, those are treated as snake oil and people trying to make them known are quacks! The biggest reason they won't use natural remedies is because you can't patent and sell nature! The other big reason is because, when cancer doctors graduate from medical school, they're GIVEN these machines that they use to give people radiation or chemo but, what they don't initially know is that they have to pay for those machines and, they can't pay for them by touting natural remedies! People have this goofy idea that the mass media is gospel and, if these natural remedies aren't talked about positively in the media, they must not be worth anything! I was just watching, "Meet John Doe". Near the end, these newspaper hawkers run into the arena loaded with people handing out papers they've been told to spread around claiming that John Doe's a fake. All of a sudden, just because they read it in those papers, they believe him!!
It's the same as how no one will listen to this guy, https://youtu.be/8Y1eWliNE_M or any others like him (Dr. Leonard Coldwell, Dr. Mark Sircus, Dr. Tuli Simonicci, Dr. Stan Brzsinski, etc., that are only trying to help people more than the mass media will. They let my aunt die 2 years ago because they refused to try a simple remedy that wouldn't hurt her at all, just because it was "anecdotal evidence' and they've heard it stands a very little chance of working!! So, what's better, letting someone die? They, basically, FORCED ME to give them the okay to pull the plug and LET HER DIE!!!

[Opinion Owner]

Great video! Dr. Peter Glidden is excellent. I also watched his Mask Myth busting. It's a refreshing change to hear such common sense for once. I've read some of Dr. Mark Sircus books on magnesium and some of his articles on selenium and iodine, always been full of knowledge and wisdom.

What you said about your Aunt I've heard so many times (have also lost family members to similar). One guy in Australia had to get courts involved to force them to give his Dad vitamin C IV and when it saved his life, they tried to discredit it saying it was just coincidence. Later they discovered the Doctors kept on trying to give an ineffective dose.

Yes, most people believe anything they see on TV or in the News Paper, very sad.

[FunkyMonkee]

I told them about that Australian guy!! Actually, he was in New Zealand. He was a crop duster and, shortly after his coma was cured, he went right back to flying his plane!! Except for her bladder infection, my aunt was in great shape for an 87 year old!! She was starting to get ever so slightly forgetful with new information but her mind was like a steel trap with older info!!
About 70 or 80 years ago, there was some Dr. that discovered a natural cure for cancer and was trying to get others to latch onto it but, this other Dr. kept saying that it wouldn't work and was even taking him to court over it!! One day, HE got cancer and, after having seen the results this other Dr. got, he went to him for the cure!! Talk about a hypocrite!!
Yeah, people just don't know how to think for themselves, anymore!
