[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is all you need to know about this family:

"We divided it five ways," the Tuohys wrote in their 2010 book, "In a Heartbeat: Sharing the Power of Cheerful Giving."

Um, it should have been divided in HALF.  50 to Michael and 50 to the family.  Why are they getting 4/5 of the cut?!!  [/quote]

It’s the entire family’s story and fair that each member was compensated, but I think they should’ve divided it three ways and given a share to each child. [/quote]

But Oher was/is not part of the family. Are they sharing their $200 million with him?[/quote]

They certainly shared some of their income with him by providing shelter, food, tutoring and more. We have no idea what’s in their will. Oher also made millions, so it’s not like he’s homeless. They’re all upper class. [/quote]
Shelter and food definitely. He actually was already academically successful prior to going to that school and not illiterate as the movie portrayed so unless you have a different reason for assuming they paid for tutoring that probably is a little Hollywood magic. I’d imagine if he were in foster care there could have been some money available for his upkeep. But they seemingly did all of this to get him to go to Ole Miss rather than a school with a stronger football program. So not sure that it’s sharing when the goal is to obtain something for your own benefit. More like paying for a certain result. [/quote]

That is not true.  His gpa was too low for D1.  [b]They paid for miss sue plus paid for him to take college courses that picked up his gpa[/b].  [/quote]

Where are you getting this? I wouldn't believe a word out of the grifter's mouths. [/quote]
