If you give you money away willingly, is it a con? | |

You are not alone in thinking its a con. There should be a commissioned study on this as its actually quite disturbing. The older I get the less I understand humans and their mob like sheeple behaviour. Social media brought us social virtue signalling the most bullshit mongoloid behaviour ever conceived. | |

Am I alone in thinking some of this is really a con.. and I don’t necessarily mean the actual people trying to con.. ok losing a child is beyond imaginable regardless of the circumstances, and the legitimate people who can’t afford to pay for funeral costs I understand people wanting to help which is very admirable.. but is it checked beforehand if the parents (for example) can or cannot afford to pay for the funeral? Also, when it states something like ‘4 thousand pounds is the target’ why is it not stopped once the target is reached? Because isn’t that the point of the target? I’ve seen it a lot but the other day in and around 85 grand had been reached (which begs the question why people keep donating when they can see the target has clearly been met) and what really gets me is, in brackets become it basically stated ‘any further money goes to the family’ - I mean.... I really don’t get it. I don’t want to come across as an asshole, because I’m all for money being given when it’s legitimate, but the family keep the surplus? Why isn’t that given to charity or something? Will the money be donated to charity by the family? I’m doubting it. I just don’t get it. Anyone who can rationalise it or make it make sense to me please feel free. |
