I was told if I worked hard, I’d get ahead in life in America.

Infinity razor from the infomercials. It was an absolute piece of trash, worse than a dollar store disposable razor after two shaves.
This sums it up well

So disappointed
I too believed in the sea monkeys. Begged my mom for them, but every time it was a no. So I said, fug it, grabbed a dollar and an envelope and put it in the mailbox. Raised the flag and I was home free.
Mom later grabbed it out of the mailbox and destroyed my dreams. I was so close to those magical, dancing sea monkeys! I would have been the envy of every kid in the neighborhood.

New Orleans. Dude bet me he knew where I got my shoes. I lost.
To be fair I felt like I had to take the bet or get killed.

Lucky it was just $759. My uncle who is a very devout Christian man (which I think played into this as he always sees the best in people to a fault), went to Baylor, is an extreme penny pincher as well. Well, he lived in El Paso at the time, and had some Mexican man come to him at Church with a business opportunity. He had known him a while and promised I'd imagine something like 20%+ IRR. My uncle gave him $1,000,000. The Mexican takes off to Mexico with it to never be heard of again. I just shook my head. He was a head lawyer at Dallas Baptist University in the past, so he'll be fine. Never, ever give anyone but a large bank or reputable asset mgmt firm $1 mil.
There's a guy out of Shreveport, Dave Deberardinis who has multiple online articles detailing his scam of tens of millions from wealthy Shreveport families. Some oil and gas venture, but really he just robbed Peter to pay Paul. He's now serving rest of his life in prison. I know Dave decently well and if you know him this doesn't surprise you. I've seen him say a couple things in front of moms with their husbands right by them that was bizarre. One of them grabbed her husband and stampeded out of the party.

Do tell, we might all learn a lesson.

A personal story that I almost fell for. The 2008 National Championship game LSU vs Ohio St. I wanted to go badly. My Dad would've paid for the tickets, so I'm not really sure why I did this, but I did. I saw multiple Craigslists ads for tickets for $250. I was in early teens, so gullible. I didn't have money, but I had things like a Nintendo Wii, etc. I asked the guy if I could trade the Wii for Nati tickets, and a couple other things for others tickets that were equal to $250. He said yeah, and gave me an address in a small South Carolina town. I literally shipped these things expecting to get Nati tickets back. The packages were sent back to my house and a note from Fedex said that the address was to an abandoned uninhabited house, and they wouldn't drop off to it.
Market rate for the highest row upper deck tickets to that 08 Nati were like $600 so $250 was just too good to be true. I was like 13 or 14.

Speed reading. I paid for a class in undergrad thinking it would help me digest more material quicker. It did have some good pointers that I still use somewhat, but for the most part it was horse shite.
