[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What bothers everyone about the gofundme, is it was very calculated. It went up quickly after he passed and was obviously intended to grab people while they were emotional. And then to find out about the ranch. The timing of that purchase was also very calculated. And he played on his friends emotional vulnerabilities to make it happen. People feel played. Is it a grift? You have to decide for yourself [/quote]

I don’t understand the financial supporting of another’s life choices when they are contrary to most mainstream ideas:

- you are able bodied, young and with kids, so you work

- you don’t get payments from other sources from prior work (residuals, royalties, etc), so you work

- you don’t move and pay rent on a large piece of property when you have money issues (announced publicaly re: selling off memorabilia)

- you don’t have 6 kids with no income stream

- you don’t have financial plans for the future

- you don’t secure a mortgage and have a downpayment on a large piece of property that will be expensive to maintain and need a lot of helping, experienced hands when you have 6 kids and no income stream (sure, stability is great, but it was never financially stable if he was simply renting that place before)

Those things can all be true and I can still be sad someone youngish who is a parent passed away. But he was irresponsible and asking for money to help is wrong. To “support the children’s education…” what does that even mean? Support their homeschooling? College?

The only thing I can say is she deserves it more than Erika Kirk but only minimally so bc Erika is a muiti millionaire (independent of the Gofundme) and employed.
