This spoiled girl is $20,000 in credit-card debt (nearly twice what I made last year) because she couldn't stop buying Prada and Gucci. She has now set up a website where she asks people to give her money. She says she deserves it because she's a nice person and gives tourists directions. She claims she can't drink tap water because she's scared of anthrax, and she primly says she won't take off her clothes for money because she's not a prostitute.
I normally would not do this, but I am going to email her and tell her I have more respect for prostitutes than I do for her. At least prostitutes work for their money.
Does this steam y'all as much as it does me?

that is such bullshit
Now I know what I should have done. I should have set up a website called www.save-amanda.com and I could post the story about how horrible my relationship was and how he spent every dime I made and then some. Then maybe people would feel sorry for me and send me money and I could get my debt paid off faster.
I'm a nice person, too. I help people fix their computers. I recycle. I give people directions. Does that mean I deserve to have other people pay off my debt?
Seeing that site just makes my skin crawl. I can't believe people are actually dumb enough to send her money.

Date: 2002-07-14 07:12 pm (UTC)Um...her debt is double what I make in a year, too, hon. Yay, the lives of poverty ridden graduate students! I can't even afford to buy FAKE Prada, let alone the real deal. I have a ton of credit card debt too, it pisses me off that she's actually *getting money* to pay hers off this way. I cannot believe it.

Date: 2002-07-14 07:19 pm (UTC)Me, I kinda respect her. She's got balls.
I've got lots of debt (not on her level, mind you).
And I'm just kicking myself for not realizing I could probably pull off something like this and get a bunch of morons to pay it off. But now that it's been done, no one else will pull it off.
The real idiots are the people who are sending her money (not counting ebay sales). From what I can see, Karen's just taking advantage of morons, something I can only mildly disapprove of.
I agree
people assume everything that is said on her site is "true". It could all be a scam from some brilliant 12 year old child to sell knock-offs he bought at the flea market! It is all about separating the money from the fools...

Date: 2002-07-16 01:28 pm (UTC)I mean, really, this is a victimless crime. People aren't being forced to give her money, she's just asking for it.
That said, I sincerely doubt it'll work.

Date: 2002-07-14 07:40 pm (UTC)But if, on some off chance, this is legitimate, I agree with the guy who says shes got balls and is just trying to get money from morons.
Personally I think that if she just charges up a few hundred more bucks for a webcam and a hosting service, she could make back the $20000 pretty easy if she strips out of the prada and gucci. :)

Here's a novel idea: If you don't like what I write, DON'T READ IT.
And don't bother replying. You've been banned.

Sometimes you have to be a bitch to some people!
I can say I agree with your feelings for this girl. I have a issures with people like this. I hope people aren't going to actually give her money! But you never know with some people.
OOPS
