That's what they all say. Will you post on the OT afterwards and say what a great person you are?

Lol. I cannot believe you took the time to write all that bs. I sincerely doubt it happened.

This is good to read. There are a lot of good people out there who just had some bad luck in life. A lot of people on this board can't comprehend this because they can't look past stereotypes.

You are a good man..

Nice gesture. Hopefully she has a free babysitter because if not I doubt even working 40 hrs/week at $12+ will improve her situation.

Bottom line is that most women are screwed for life if they don't get the education and career BEFORE having children. All it takes is one deadbeat with a penis

OP I wish her the best, but I've come to realize that most people get where they are out of effor or lack there of. A lower percentage than what you think gets lucky or unlucky in careers. The odds are against her she lasts, but hopefully for your sake she breaks the odds.




I don't think is as true as you think. Yes, there are a lot of lazy people who have carved out their own path in life, but there are also people who have had misfortunate things happen in their life and sometimes all they need is an opportunity.

Good story. Thanks for following your gut. There are some people who need a hand up rather than a hand out. Even if it doesn't work out your heart was in the right place. To me that's what matters.

Excellent outcome. The fact that she was waiting at his office the next morning leads me to believe she is legit. If she was a scammer or just looking for an easy way out, she'd have taken your money and had no interest in getting a job. Hope it all works out and glad you listened to your gut.

Just ignore them. The people who post that stuff on a message board would never say those things in person. Some people use a message board to lash out because they are pissed off at the world. It makes them feel better, but just ignore it.

While people will say you are "bragging", sometimes I think stories like this need to be told.. If anything it might inspire others to do something similar.

Only issue I have is you seeking validation for it on here. 


I agree with this if it's something he posted on Facebook, where his IRL name and pic attached to it. Not so bad here amongst the anonymous (most being anonymous, at least )

You did more than I would have. I've just been burnt too many times by scammers, but what you did for this nice lady is what truly makes America great. Congrats!
