Go fund me?
 
Stop Hurting Feyris by Brandon Mathew Wong - GoFundMe


Saw this on my fb feed. Not trying to be negative nor stir the pot but if you have stuff to sell and its desperation mode wouldn't you rather sell things rather than your self respect?


Not hating pls dont fail me i rarely post but just seeing opinions as i drive a rotary and they are unpredictable and i might just start a go fund me for when my motor needs to be rebuilt.

Wouldve been better to start a thread about the logistics rather than the actual thing.

I don't have nice things to say about this, at all.

Yea I don't know the back story about it I've just been hearing it from friends and seeing it on my fb with various responses ranging from positive to ultra negative, I've yet to see one thats neutral.

Gofund bringing Berz to the summer meet? I'll sign shirts for all that help me out!!

Seriously though this is fucking WACK! It's probably all his friends donating though so IF your just asking your friends to help out this is an easy way to amalgamate the money.

Berz out.

Also there are dashcams out there for under $100 (Under $150) which I'm sure he can afford seeing as the guy just bought a new set of wheels https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?f...type=1&theater

amen man.

I don't get how some ppl get off thinking it's ok to ask for money for frivolous things in life when they already have so much.

is there a way to write a complaint to gofundme and have this unnecessary campaign removed?

From my understanding he wants the money to pay for the initial vandalism deductible, plus a dash cam.

I wonder where the extra money's going to go, now that he's well over what he asked.

I couldn't even fathom making a request for such a thing. I mean do people have no shame or pride these days? If this is such a traumatic thing for the guy, I can't imagine how he'd deal with real life problems.

I hate people like this. I say we get em all and burn em all

maxxxboost 06-04-2015 11:13 AM

Interesting. Living beyond his means? Well. Looks like he met his goal so whatever. Hope he pays it forward.

quasi 06-04-2015 11:13 AM

This is so ridiculous, nobody with any self respect would do this. It's not like he lost his job and can't feed himself or his family, it's a car. My kid needs new sneakers maybe I should start a gofundme for that or even better would all mind paying for his eduction so I don't have to?...........:banghead:

Zordon 06-04-2015 11:14 AM

He can afford Rays, and he doesn't have $500?

If he got hit by a new driver and it wasn't his fault there's no deductible to pay.

This, something about this just makes me think scam and/or just another lazy, entitled useless idiot.

Seriously do people have no shame anymore? What happened to having drive and ambition to make your own way and stand on your own two feet? If this idiot can't afford $500 for his insurance deductible and a dash camera he wants, maybe he shouldn't have bought a vehicle he couldn't afford to operate.

I went to his Facebook via the link in a previous post. The guy claims the money is to pay the deductible for the previous vandalism incident.

I guess he mentioned the new driver accident to garner more pity from people.

Begging can be confusing.
