Monstarcoins

Last night as I lay in bed trying to sleep I was contemplating between a couple of coins I wanted to buy. Im probably going to take a break for a while after I purchase the one. Any who while I was thinking about it I remembered that earlier in the day my mom was telling me how my brother lost his car, internet and cable, and next is his house. 
I started feeling really bad because here I am contemplating purchasing a coin which is not a necessity at all and others are contemplating how there going to get there next meal. Its really sad because he tries hard to do everything for his kids including paying for private school. I decided that I couldn't possibly buy one of these coins without doing something for him. I decided that the profits from my only monster morgan I've owned will be placed in an envelope and slid in his door anonymously. The point of this thread is that if you can afford to spend money on coins than you should consider yourself very lucky. I dont care if there $5 coins or $1000 coins.

Don't buy the coin(s) and instead give that money to your brother.

We went to the outback on Sunday ( My moms treat) and they were all riding with her. I asked why and he said his car was getting fixed. I beleive he is really embarrassed about the situation. My mom told me and asked me not to tell him she told me.

Not really as 'someone else' rarely does so.

I believe his brother should have been the one worried. Help is a courtesy not an obligation.

let's not make this about the government...

Very true. In this case, I think Andy should buy the brother a new car.

I can't believe I am saying this but I agree completely.....
In 2007, I lost everything after my custody battle. But I gained my son 24/7. Lost the job at Federal Ammo etc...and until recently, the only furniture my son and myself have lived with were a computer, he had his old crib mattress, and me....a few blankets and a hardwood floor. Less is more, and if it continues for him, tell him to figure it out and not let it deprive him and his family of happiness. And to make things better, I started following a Taoist approach to life. I'm finally getting a foothold and moving back up the ladder of possessions, but wow, the more I have, the more I realize I am missing out on REAL LIFE! And I am sure this could be said for most people. When you're poor, broke, and living out of a motor home, life is FUN!
Wishing him well!

Might be better to get his car fixed for him or such. Pay his car insurance for a year. Just
saying we don't always know what's going on (unless you live with him). Good luck,

Struggles are only uplifting and character building after the fact when you are looking back at them from a better place. They kind of suck in the present and that is why I suspect you worked to get into the situation that you are in now and didn't stay as you were. I could be wrong
