Go Fund Yourself

So I made a thread at one point because people were sending me gofundme links and I was roasting them. Eventually I got banned from the website..

I don't remember what the thread was called. Anyway a friend started sending me stuff again and apparently I'm no longer banned.

Also thinking of making a website called "Go Fund Yourself" and just telling people to fuck off because it makes me feel good inside when I crush somebody's entitlement based dreams.

I should probably find a new hobby, but nothing makes me feel as complete as this.

$50 / $7,000

Hello, I am raising money so I can go to New York. The agency Seattle Talent has accepted me and wants me to be successful and put me to work, but..... I am needing classes to be able to improve my acting classes to help me perfect my singing, and classes to help me become more of a polished model. They are asking for $7000 for everything together. This also includes the expenses to be able to go to New York as well. Anything and everything helps to reach what they are asking for so I may reach my dreams.

looks like a discount gas station jennifer lawrence

"wants me to be successful" what the fuck. Go to a rest home and tell them that and you will get slapped
the casting room wants you to be more successful than a NY acting school lol

What a scam.

Usually it's right place right time getting into modeling. Everyone else I know it was the same thing. Hell even kevtrons brother got pulled in for a reebok ad from going to a music festival.

If you're the right person for something, they will use you. They'll get your info, contact whatever companies they shoot for. Mention you, get you to send over some pictures and your height etc and then get you in and put you to work.

Anything where you have to pay money to take classes is just scammy as fuck. You have such a ridiculously low chance of going anywhere from that but they're going to make $$$ on your dream.

If you're not what they're looking for you're just not what they're looking for. Sure different people will see different things in somebody, but it's not like a fucking resume.

Not really. They're asking for 7 g's. They're lucky there are so many people that want to be a model so bad they're pay anything to try.

"with all donations going to help Michael Cohen and his family as he goes forward on his journey"

What in the actual fuck. It's over $100k now. Shouldn't this dude have enough money from all his fraud to be able to pay for his own lawyers... Not to mention he's a lawyer himself.... Some Americans are so off the wagon these days

Turtleboysports.com if yall wanna see some really REALLY ridiculous gofundme idiots. Crackhead parents asking for "christmas toy money fuh muh kids", others saying theyll 'give' foodstamps if you 'donate' money. The worst part of course being that people actually give money to these bums.

This one was pretty good. https://www.gofundme.com/you-too-can-power-our-marriage

Listen, we don't really need or want gifts, but enough of you have expressed anger at our lack of a registry that we've created a gofundme.
Any donations are not expected whatsoever, but they will be greatly appreciated. All funds will likely be funneled into home renovations. And as a token of our gratitude we will engrave/carve or somehow permanently adorn whatever item your money funds with your name. We're all about proper credit.
So if you give us $25, maybe we'll carve your name into a drawer handle. If you give us $50,000, we'll name the kitchen after you or something. $250,000, and you get to name the first kid. It's literally all for sale. Everything's gotta go.

wow, so a couple got married and they are asking for 1 million dollars... They got 5,000$ already for doing absolutely nothing. Just reminds me of the South Park episode: The Washington Redskins: Go fuck yourself

Can you guys do nature a solid and tell this guy to kindly fuck off from national parks/any place other than a golf course?

I'm almost more offended by his terrible swing and stupid egotistical face.

"Heyy! I’ve decided to make a wild life choice & hit a golf ball in all 50 states of America in 30 days!

Thank you for supporting my journey! I’m about half way through and want to finish strong.. also Alaska & Hawaii are a thing.

At the end of the journey when I make it, I will give everyone a special thank you who helped me get to the finish line :)

Enjoy your journey!

-Jake"


He's fired one off in Yellowstone National Park, Teddy Roosevelt National Park, Mount Rushmore National Memorial, Grand Canyon, etc...

Probably will get blasted woth downvotes but whatever.

Ski startups are sick, but start it up. Sell some merch and get the hype going. Sell kickstarter ish deals for cheap skis when you get running.

Idk. Everybody wants to start a business with this or that or x amount of $$$. I get that starting up is tough but that's part of it.

The ski start up one.

Go fund me started on page 3.


Down to see people start new things and succeed but dude mentioned "Im trying to not rely soley on the go fund me" or something like that. Sounds like he's bringing nothing to the table and just decided in high school that he wanted a ski company so 10k go fund me it is.

I get that some things are expensive to start but idk. These gofundme startups kinda rub me the wrong way.

Maybe I'm just an asshole.

So this chick I saw on various reddit pages and guess what? She got fired and deserves to lose her license if she hasn't already. Now she started a gofundme... Jesus I think this is worse than runforlove
