My fundraiser for emergency medical expenses and repairs

Hi all,

I have carefully laid out each of the medical expenses (they are dental) and the repairs in my GoFundMe story. I understandably avoided the dentist during the pandemic, and I had to have an abscessed tooth extracted and need a large cavity filled and a full cleaning. Who knows what else they might find during my cleaning. It was over $400 for the wisdom tooth extraction and I estimate $200 each for both the filling and cleaning. I have Medicaid, which my dentist doesn’t take. I looked at those around me who take my insurance, and I don’t trust any of them.

In addition, the downstairs toilet broke and looks like it has all kinds of problems. My mom is an older widow and can’t get up our tall stairs so often. It won’t flush at all. A plumber would likely cost at least $200 for this repair.

I also am thinking about my mom’s future. I have it explained in my story how she needs to get to a new place, but the foreclosure is a problem. I have not included moving costs in my goal since I have not estimated them - especially with possible subsidized housing. But anything you could contribute to that would be greatly appreciated. I still have not heard about my disability claim.

For the fundraiser picture, this time I included one of mom and me in happier times. I hope we can get back to that.

If you're on Medicaid, you take what you get!  There's no such thing as "I don't trust them."  This is absolutely free healthcare, literal beggars can't be choosers.

This guy throws up a beg-a-thon every few months. He actually had the gall in one of them to say he would never ask them for money again then like a month after that statement he hit them up again saying basically “my last fundraiser here went so well I thought I’d go ahead and do another one.”

The DUmmies ponied up for him again, too!  LOL

3. Did any DU-folk call out his serial GoScamMe's? If not, linking his previous beg-threads in his current one might stir up some interesting discussion. E.G., "Why, in the past year, have you done nothing to improve your circumstances?"

21. One GFM last October, one in January, one in May, and now this one. I think there were some before.

Interestingly, the OP says his mother's birthday is the 12th, but in another thread says her SS doesn't come until the 26th. That's not how SS does payments, if I'm not mistaken.

Another oddity is that the OP posted about voting, going into detail of how he took his ballot to a drop box, but no mention of Mom's vote. With Mom being a part of all these campaigns, it just seemed odd to me that he didn't say, "mom and I voted today; I took both our ballots to the drop box." I even asked about her at the time.

The OP also bought enough hearts to give away in February during DU's heart drive. Admirable, but if money is this tight, perhaps not the wisest?

Sorry if I seem cynical, but I remember a poster who took advantage of DUers for several years until being discovered.

I see poor dear Marta, the much-abused wife of Omaha Steve, tossed in $25, but despite that the fund-raiser's rather sluggish, having raised only $215 thus far, apparently enough to pay the electric bill but not the water bill.

Matt needs to get down to his local Job Service office.

When I was delivering the mail a long time ago, I got to see the worst of those refusing to work. After being berated by a large woman with sideburns for a delayed crazy check which wasn't even on my route, I kind of understood why some people couldn't be employed

23. Matt, you have two "gofundme's" open right now

I think people are starting to question the legitimacy of this one. My red flag was that you have medicaid but "don't trust the dentists that accept it."

Are you and your Mom OK? Perhaps you should contact a state agency at this point- a good social worker could help you navigate the care you guys need.

24. Here are the previous GFMs you've posted.

There are discrepancies that have caught my and others' eye.

You offered to give hearts away to folks right after saying the electricity was going to be cut off, and now the water is going to be cut off.

Maybe put money like that toward your utilities?

Here are the previous GFMs for anyone interested:

https://www.democraticunderground.com/100215909861

https://www.democraticunderground.com/100215946390

https://www.democraticunderground.com/100216254697

https://www.democraticunderground.com/100216659843

And then there is this month's GFM. As another poster pointed out, you still have a couple of the previous ones open.

His current fundraiser's still at $215, where it's been stuck for quite a while.

Perhaps Matt should check into newspaper home delivery jobs.  They used to be for boys, but with all the sexual predators and other primitives running loose, they're now given to adults.

I think the exercise would un-"disable" him.

26. The last one is done. Just have to delete it

No we are not ok - they are all legitimate. We are just always stressed. If anyone has any concerns, just PM me. I will be happy to answer questions. Have you even seen those dentists? I have done my research. I have plenty of verification. As said, I hoped to create one big GoFundMe, but that wasn’t possible under the circumstances.

Even at DU the old and disabled don’t always get the best treatment.

You don't look old and disabled, you look middle-aged, fat, and lazy AF.

My mom is old, not me

You completely misunderstand. I am the one disabled with autism and severe hearing loss. And no the toilet has multiple problems. The water company said the water usage doubled and it was because of the toilet always running and then it ran out of water. I am not handy. I’ll need a plumber to look at it. Things are not so easy.

So, you're middle-aged, fat, lazy, AND useless AF.  :rofl:

There are probably 10s of thousands of videos on YouTube explaining EXACTLY how to replace the entire guts of a commode. I was never "trained" in plumbing. I figured all that shit out on my own. Jesus Christ, the damn BOX shows you how to do it.

30. You don't appear to be "old" and it seems you're living off your mom's social security.

You yourself stated that you had a "problem" living within your means and had overcharged your credit cards.

You may think the hearts are "so little" but if you say that to yourself about every expenditure, it's no wonder you can't get out of debt.

As far as your mom endangering herself on the stairs, get a bedside commode. Then you can take the bucket out and hoof it upstairs yourself. It's not that hard to do, and that way she won't be in danger of falling.

Toilets aren't that difficult to fix, unless you're dealing with some huge clog. Check out some of the forums here who can help you with simple repairs.

I do like the fact that the BlackScammer seems to see thru the B.S. and is taking Matt Dubois to task.  :fuelfire:

For those not keeping track, and for the lurking mutts, including the current fundraiser which has reached $415. Matt Dubois has collected $8965.

Just think about that lurking dummies. And think about this..

1. Matt has Medicaid but doesnt trust the dentist.

2. Matt wont make a simple $20 repair to a toilet.

3. Matt doesnt seem to want to get outside help.

4. Matt has never been employed.

5. Matt is lying when he says "I never said that" in regards to asking for more and more.

But by all means keep donating. But dont worry. If you cant donate right now. Give it a month. He will give you another oppurtunity.

50. Yes, but I have calculated with my mom's lawyer..

and real estate agent friend that my mom wouldn’t make much money. Subsidized housing is a possibility. I was going to create a GoFundMe for those moving expenses but thought it would be a bad idea with no estimated cost. She does have to move soon somehow. The house is just not right.

So, im guessing we know what the next fundraiser will be all about.  :p

51. This appears to be your county.

https://www.montcopa.org/2889/Adults-Seniors

They even have a "Basic Needs" department. Why haven't you looked into this before now since you first asked for money almost a year ago?

You've been asking for money for almost a year, and another poster pointed out that it appears you've made $8500 from DU. I certainly haven't spent anywhere near that on my utilities, even including taxes on two properties. $8500? Wow.

I can't imagine what you've spend $8500 on, but you certainly should have been able to catch up with your utilities with that.

I'm still curious why you say your mom's SS check doesn't come till the end of the month, when her birthday is on the 12th?

Not tooting my own horn, but I really have to laugh at this. I cant find anywhere on DU where anyone did the math. I think BlackScammer found that number right here, a few posts up from this one. :lmao:

Never worked. Anyone else think he's been nothing but a lazy **** living off his mother since he was born, but now since she's retired and not making as much he's having to make up for the money he used to get from her? Look at this fat fk. Telling me he couldn't even get a "sit on your ass in front of the computer" office job? There are people with Down Syndrome who work. This is nothing but a lazy mfer.

That final contribution of $600 looks fishy.  Maybe it's only a "paper" contribution, however that might happen.

Also, it's been two days.  The fundraiser looks dead now.

By the way, not even his nearest neighbors has seen the big guy, Omaha Steve, for weeks.

That's why his wife poor dear Marta has been contributing to this flatulent fund-raiser.

I've been told there's a light in the back room that's on 24/7.

Speculation is that the big guy is strapped to chair, and when he suffers one of his outbursts, his mouth is wrapped around his jaw to shut him up.  Those times he can be fed, it's bread and water.

106. Before I let this sink, any other advice?

This again was badly needed but if a situation arose again before an extended period of time, I would be overwhelmed with embarrassment and wouldn’t be able to make another one.

I will leave the fundraiser open because of my worries about my mom’s future (also have to figure out mine) - and this is the only GoFundMe I now have or will have for a while.

Me being autistic with severe social anxiety and my mom being older with worsening depression and anxiety makes us a unique case and makes things harder on us. That said, we are definitely doing what we can. I know the goal is $1,000, and I am keeping the goal there. I am very grateful for reaching my goal. But anything else you could give for our future would be greatly appreciated.

This is just never ending, is it. A rhetorical question, of course.

I want that burden off badly so advice indeed helps. I manage the money because mom doesn’t want the burden, and am making sure it is spent right for needs. I hope this covers all my dental problems.

Maybe that's the damn problem. You've admitted to never having a job so you went from child, to adult child with absolutely ZERO experience in managing a budget. As blackskimmer pointed out, you were handing out heart in February despite your situation and then dismissed them as "small". I have no idea what a "heart" is nor how much they cost but why the hell are you spending anything on anything other than the bare necessities unless you're greasing up DU to give you more in the future which, like clockwork, happened.

I think you should change your name to whiteskammer as an homage to blackskimmer who keeps calling your fat, lazy, worthless ass out.

110. One more bring up

And it is because my mom is in a mental health crisis. Not suicidal yet, but she’s not sleeping or eating right, always fearful, and not functioning well. I do not want her to have to worry about money at all. The goal is remaining the same. There are plenty of fundraisers that go over the goal.

Yes, I have insisted that mom see someone - a psychologist or even a psychiatrist. She has a list of names and has begun calling.

Not sure why I'm so enamored by this. Guess it's like watching the circus, and DUmmies are the monkeys. Who wants to bet his mom would be financially fine if she didn't have to finance her parasite of a son?

But since it's become fairly evident that mvd is just a con artist, the DUmp denizens of Skinner's Island of Misfit ****-ups are merely his simple minded marks, and if "Mother" exists at all, she's laughing it up living at the DUmmies expense in a retirement villa somewhere, I'll refrain from wasting my breath.

I'm afraid I disagree there - having just read the whole thread, he's so winey and needy there's no way he'd be able to keep any job. In the short time before he was sacked, I'm sure that he'd simply offload everything he was supposed to do onto his colleagues and winge and moan at his boss about how horrid everybody was for expecting him to contribute.

He reached and exceeded the goal nine days ago--actually $1,040 of a goal of $1,000--and nothing's happened since then.

However, that last contribution of $600 looks fishy; I'm sure it's a paper, and not a real, contribution, although I have no idea how that would be done.

He upped the target - no more donations (and as you say, the $600 is dodgy as hell), but the target is now $1,200. If he gets there, I'm sure that there's another surprise bill which will lead to a further target.

Most primitives demand others give without themselves giving too.

As long as I've known him--and now, his much overworked wife poor dear abused Marta--other than his historic campaign for the Bellevue city council, whenever he's (or she's) posted a solicitation for one thing or another, he (or she) puts in twenty-five bucks of his own too.

If he truly loved his mom he’d get a job. She’s going to die a miserable, mentally drained and insane woman, and it will all be Matt’s fault because he’s worthless. I hope someone points that out to him.

If he can toe all day on DU (and his writing isn’t bad) he can do transcription work or data entry. I don’t give a damn what lies he’s selling in the street. He could be a productive member of society AND help his mom, but he’s too lazy and worthless and he doesn’t love his mom other than he can use her to gin up sympathy.

He probably beats her to make her participate.

I think she can take him. I think he's making it all up, his mother's fine, she's just tired of funding the lifestyle of a 46 year old, man-child of a parasite too damn lazy to get a damn job. I love my mother wayyyyy too much to be putting the shit he's saying about her on the internet.

Matt, clearly the generous folk of the DU are struggling understanding your situation. Would you agree? I have a solution for you. Post your bank statements. That would help to resolve any questions, not to mention other more experienced DU'ers can guide you with budgeting! This would take all the stress off of your shoulders!

210. I understand but that's so personal

I can post proof of the overdraft if you think that would help. The transactions are a bunch of Wawa, Instacart, Aldi, Giant, bills, paying back my friend for some loans, Uber, paying the lawyer and TV/internet. No luxuries but maybe some things I could improve on.

Cutting the cord would help. Maybe get YouTube TV and just Xfinity internet? Mom watches a lot of TV but that cost is high.

lol Congrats DUers, you helped him pay off some money he already owed to other people he scammed.  :rotf:

I make over 6 figures. I don't even have an attorney on reserve. Besides, if it came to power/water and cable if I got into a bind? The cable would go. He's never said his cable was being turned off. Just his water. Priorities.....  :rofl:

215. Ok. Lets tackle this!

Keep in mind. Im your friend. I want to help. See, now you have 2 friends. Its not hard to make friends. Even if you are a social recluse.

When you say, "a bunch", how manys a bunch? Like once per day, for a Little Debbie Snack Cake? Or 7 times a day, for breakfast, lunch, and dinner? Do you cook at home? Thats a great money saver right there!

Instacart. No experience there, but they are probably charging delivery fees. How many deliveries are we talking? Once in a while? And once in a while is ok. Or are we talking, everyday?

Aldi and Giant are ok. But the food pantry is free!

Paying back your other friend. Good for you!

Uber? Where are you going? Can you walk? Bicycle? Thats good for your heart, and the Earth!

Lawyer. My goodness.

Internet. Maybe you can bum wifi from a neighbor?

Have a great day! Friend.

217. On one of his previous pleas, he admitted that "mom" and he have difficulty controlling their credit

card spending on unnecessary things.

Perhaps placing bills in the "pay first" pile, might go a long way to making life a bit more manageable.

I highly doubt "mom" has difficulty controlling anything other than her lazy ass, parasite of a son. He doesn't look like he's missed any meals. I seriously think this is a case of her getting to retirement age, realizing she's going to be on fixed income, and his ass needing to get a damn job.

She's probably told him to get off his ass and get a job and he's using her to milk DU of money.

Wow.  The primitives have really turned.

Go to the link, and scroll about halfway down the primitive comments, where the fun begins.

The main allegation seems to be Matt's given all these suggestions, but doesn't act on any of them.

And if anybody knows how to game the system, it's the primitives.

Pamela's harping about the spacious luxurious quarters in which Matt & Mom live, saying she looked into it, but alas provided no link.

More bad news for Matt is that social security is slowing down the rates of approvals/disapprovals for disability because of too many claims and not enough workers.  They are compelled to do this under the Biden administration, it must be noted.

It looks as if it's going to be a good two years or more before Matt's disapproved, because the Biden administration is cracking down on claims for disability based upon "attention deficit" disorders and autism.  And being hard of hearing was never grounds for disability anyway.

237. I do understand things won't always be easy

I don’t expect them to be. I just don’t agree with some of your approach. The general idea of change is correct. A bad dentist can lead to even more expensive problems later. I have seen it with my mom over the years. You seem to mean well and I do need to evaluate things and get to where if I reach the new goal I won’t have to do this again. Have a good night and I do thank you for being honest. That is what I need.

224. No I was just saying what I have now

I have the broadband benefit on my mobile phone and since it is one per household, it requires a switch. That’s doable.

Very good idea as I said.

I haven’t meant to dismiss ideas at all. In fact everything from a social worker to housing to cutting costs has been helpful in my planning. I have said so.

But I do need to make the goal this time if possible.

228. Anyone know if Meals on Wheels has rides?

Their website says yes, but the meals part says the person must be unable to prepare meals and can’t shop. Well I do most of the shopping for mom. Worth looking into because I want to cut expenses. That won’t help for right now though which is why I have the GoFundMe. It has done well but I really need assistance one more time,

Quote
mvd (64,213 posts)

246. Not sure what some want me to say when I need a little more help now, but..

I recognize the need for a plan. Here are some things to try:

- look into a social worker
- make sure we are getting all the benefits we are qualified for, from EBT to help with utilities
- see if there is free or very low cost transportation
- try to get to store more often rather than Instacart so much. Hard with just one friend
- which makes it important for me and my mom to try to meet more people despite the pandemic
- again insist mom cuts down on cigarettes. I try very hard here
- look into cutting the cord
- look into subsidized housing and autism services
- contact insurance company and see if any more dentists are taking my plan. Ones I have seen look terrible
- any home services available?

List can be longer than that. I will think and add to it.

It depends on what your living accommodations are.  Those who live in tents think mobile home owners are well off.  Those in the mobile homes think the single family resident folks are well off.  Etc.

Pam probably lives in something less than what we see in the picture.

I don't care what anyone lives in.  Here in TX since we have no state income tax it's easy to shelter money by living in a house that isn't reflective of your income.

Hey Mods-we seem to have a scammer on DU . We are a giving lot but are being taken MVD
https://www.democraticunderground.com/100216899096#post225

There are discrepancies that have caught my and others' eye.

You offered to give hearts away to folks right after saying the electricity was going to be cut off, and now the water is going to be cut off.

Maybe put money like that toward your utilities?

Here are the previous GFMs for anyone interested:

https://www.democraticunderground.com/100216254697

https://www.democraticunderground.com/100216659843

And then there is this month's GFM. As another poster pointed out, you still have a couple of the previous ones open.







Seems the stories of each GFM are the same-water bills, dental work, groceries and cigarettes and internet and overdraft bills



WE ALL have those expenses and one time is truly a need but this poster has made over 8 grand from DU and lots of advice that seems to be rejected. This last fund was opened July 7 and promised to be over July 18 and yet the goal keeps raising and the poster keeps asking for more money. Many of us live on fixed income and this dude admits to spending too much money on credit cards and more.

All of us have asked for help from time to time but this seems to be a full time job for this poster.

Several of us believe it is time to end this.

I'm having bariatric surgery next week and trying to prevent from becoming homeless.

My health condition started with a rare lung disease called Pulmonary Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis. Cysts filled my lungs, I was on oxygen, and didn't have the lung function to be able to move much. I gained a lot of weight and now I have been diagnosed with Lipedema. Lipedema is a painful fat disorder. It's not really my fault I am like this. I am explaining this because someone from DU who I will not call out here.. posted on my facebook that I should get a job and stop begging for money. I thought I do owe people a more detailed explanation of what is going on in my life, no matter how embarrassing it is.

I'm having Duodenal Switch Procedures - SADI-S surgery a week from today on 7/21/22. I'm 7 days into my fat free milk diet. I can having nothing but fat-free milk for 14 days to shrink my liver for a safer surgery. Because I also have Lipedema, there will have to be more surgeries in the future to get rid of the remaining painful fat.

On top of the health issues, being on the brink of homelessness, my son who just lost his step father, Tommy has been disowned by his bio dad and bio family. Tommy came into my life when my son was 4, Tommy was his dad, they were close. My son is gay. It's not a big deal to me and wasn't to Tommy but his bio father is Egyptian and Muslim. My son's father snooped in his laptop while my son was visiting him. That whole side of the family instantly disowned him. He is devastated. We're going through a lot. I thought I needed to explain more of what is happening after getting told to get job and stop begging. I promise you, this is not easy. I don't want to ask. It's a lot easier to try and deal with this now than later if I have an eviction on my record. If you have a little extra, please help me. I do genuinely appreciate all the help I get.

P.S please forgive my grammar. I'm not a good writer.

There are some interesting similarities between these 2 fund raisers.  Enough to raise an eyebrow.

Her is Mrs. Wheeler's GFM;

Quote
Hello, my name is Mary Lucy Wheeler. My husband, who was the primary breadwinner, died on January 17th, 2022. Unfortunately, I am having difficulty making rent, medical bills for an upcoming surgery and basic living expenses. My only income is SSA $1029/mo for my son, who is 19 years old and me. My son is looking for work applying for jobs everywhere in town. He is on the autism spectrum, so it's a bit harder for him, but he is trying. I am on the waiting list for low-income housing, so I will be OK once that is in place. I checked on it last week, and it appears I am about 3-4 months away. I'm trying to keep from being evicted for not having rent which would make it hard even to get low-income housing. Medicare is paying for most of my upcoming surgery; the only thing I have to pay for is some classes about post-op diet, compression socks and sleeves. I am very grateful for the help. The folks at DU have been generous enough to have helped with $1700 so far. I'm so close.. just 3 or 4 more months until I get Section 8. I'm trying to prevent from being in an even worse situation.

It's tough to ask for help. I feel embarrassed, ashamed and humiliated.

I'm grieving still. I still cry almost every day. Tommy and I were so very much in love. We would spontaneously slow dance in the kitchen, kissing and holding hands like teenagers in love until he died. We had a powerful love, and I am so very grateful to have had him for the `14 years I did.

I'm thankful for any help I get. Thank you!


Mary Wheeler

It sure does seem that the DUmmie in this post tried to cover some of the already made points...  waiting for ssi disability, low-income housing etc.
Wouldn't surprise me one bit. This con probably has this scam running under multiple usernames in multiple places, facebook, other forums, etc.
DU is probably his bread-n-butter though, it's a huge mass of idiots that desperately need to feel better about themselves. Make no mistake, DUmmies give to people for no other reason than to either brag about it, or pat themselves on the back in full view of their peers.

Like everyone else, I agree its pretty dang suspicious whats going on with the two. I originally brought over Mrs. Wheelers when it first started, but thought nothing more of it. It seemed pretty straight forward.

This is getting good.

     All I can say is, when Pam gives your fundraising the side-eye, you're either (a) bad at it, so that even a meathead like her can smoke it out, or (b) she's green-eyed (and brown-drawers) jealous that she didn't think of it first so she can be demtwentytwojeep, or (c) BOTH.

     Either way, on DU, there's always some shyster to bilk them out of their money, and I'm pretty sure they just take turns.

I think they all need a bucket of introspection smashed across their collective heads. These idiots get to vote for people who control our economic policies that impact ALL of us. "I" LOVED the economy under Trump, who I voted for. Biden has been in office, with a house and senate on his side, for a year and a half and they're STILL bitching and complaining about homelessness and lack of resources. Make that a BIG bucket of introspection. Perhaps YOU'RE the reason you're in these situations, DUmbasses.

      You are forgetting the unseen benefits and heartwarming effects of leaving $80B in advanced weaponry in Afghanistan, and the slow drip of resources that is prolonging and intensifying the Ukraine war, not to mention the complete opening of the southern border with the idea of replacing dumb yokel working class people with freshly-minted Democrats. The last one is already not working so well for them, as it turns out that a goodly portion of those streaming across the border actually do want a better life rather than the same corrupt crap they fled.

      Might not be a popular opinion here, but if the border has to be open (which is doesn't), I'd let in families and tell all single men to **** off back to Central America and the Middle East. We have our share of filthy criminals as it is.

279. I am willing for sure. I wanted to be honest about

my expenses to show I am not hiding anything. There was a super helpful post above I am very thankful for.

Ok, then be honest. Why is it always your water at risk of being shut off and not your cable? Because your priorities are all f'ed up. As stated above, what about your toilet? You've been running this latest scam for 20 days. You could have watched 1000 YouTube videos explaining how to fix a damn toilet by now.

You're just lazy. Admit it.

I'd seriously give you the benefit of the doubt if "I was never taught" was a viable excuse but it's not. NO one taught me how to fix a toilet, change a light fixture, a receptacle, hang new blinds, new doors, change sink faucets, etc. etc., etc., etc., etc., etc. I learned all this BEFORE the internet became a thing and WAY before YouTube. It's calling being a damn adult and having the basic cognitive skills. Autism is NO excuse. You know how many game-designing nerds have some form of ADD, ADHD, Autism, etc.?

You're ALLLLLLL excuses, MVD. I cannot ****ing STAND useless parasites like you. Just hitch a ride east and play in traffic on I-95. Do your mom a favor. I've stated my belief. She'd be fine if she didn't have to finance your pathetic ass.

I'm still watching social security disability youtubes, desperately trying to find good news for Matt, but it looks as if all the good stuff--"good" when compared with now--happened during the previous presidential administration, and under the current one, the picture looks bleaker and bleaker.

Matt's gonna have some problems finding an attorney.

The deal is, attorneys get one-third of the accumulated proceeds as payment for their services.

So they have an incentive to get accumulated proceeds as high as possible, so as to increase their own take.

Now they're asking potential clients to submit their previous three years' earnings, which factors into the size of the accumulated payment.

The situation now, under the Biden administration, is that attorneys are no longer accepting clients who had little or no income the preceding three years.

A $3,000 chunk after all is better than a $300 chunk, especially considering that attorneys have to spend the same length of time on either case.

<<<will keep digging to find good news for Matt.

DU has been extremely generous. You are going to be lucky at this point if no one wants refunds on your past gofundmes. I would let this go if I were you, and get real help.

I regret that I had no idea what the donations were for- I didn't know you were borrowing money from friends, and using over a grand on Uber.

Good luck Matt.

Holy crap. 1K on Uber? WTH.

I cant find where that number was sourced from, but if true, and I doubt it, holy crap balls.

Continuation of my fundraiser thread
Had a long discussion in GD where I talked about getting help now and also getting suggestions for the future where I do not have to ask again. Budgeting help, services, and long term planning have all been discussed. I had a lot of medical expenses and repairs to the house. But I also have a large overdraft from before that has left me and my mom with only $270 for the whole month. So I made my goal to reflect that. I greatly appreciate all the help given both with donations and advice. My mom and I have to turn this around. Here is the link to my fundraiser:

Here’s hoping you get ever penny you need from DUers. It’ll be a sure sign that this community truly cares; because they do.

 :lmao:

Oh, I bet Matt, if that is even his real name is going to be a-ok.

But heres my question, if anyone has the answer. Since MVD keeps changing the goal amount, how does he get the pay out? Can he just withdraw the funds as they come in? Or does he have to wait till goal?

Im cunfused and mixed on this one. If you have to wait till the goal is met, and he keeps upping it, then his scam is running a risk. A serious risk.

Anyone know?

Never mind, I found the answer to my above question. Directly from GFM:

Quote
How do I withdraw funds from my fundraiser?
Once your GoFundMe starts receiving online donations, you can easily request a withdrawal at any time. Withdrawing money does not affect the progress meter displayed on your fundraiser. Simply click ‘Withdraw’ while logged into your account and follow the instructions. You can withdraw your balance directly to your bank account. Bank transfers take 2-5 business days to arrive.

It doesn’t even have to be to the goal. Every little bit helps. I now realize that while I wasn’t exactly buying luxury TVs, there are things I can improve in our budget. And there is assistance available that I had no idea of. So while I have been embarrassed having to make this thread, in the long run it will be good for me.

Never mind, I found the answer to my above question. Directly from GFM:

So.....gofundme allows withdrawals without deducting them from the amount raised.

Matty Boy risks a $600 overdraft by getting that out of the bank and sending it to gofundme.  After which $600 is credited to his goal.  Then he withdraws it, or even more, to put it back into the bank.  But the $600 isn't subtracted from the amount raised.

That's probably the same thing he did with the $120 donation.

The boy might as well give it up.  He's destroyed his credibility with the primitives, it's going to be an eternity before his application for social security disability is rejected, and even more beyond that, that his appeal of the judgement will be rejected.....by which time Matty Boy will be 60 years old.

He might as well go out and get a job, as he doesn't appear to be inclined to ask God to show him the way.

Sounds like playing a shell game.

Meanwhile, if Matt is real, and I mean genuinely a real person, he strikes me as the kind that would leave his moms corpse on the living room couch, with the View turned on, so the check keeps coming in every month.

Surely even he can see that this one is a lost cause now. The scam worked well for a while, but now it's run its course - time to find another way to scrounge money of folk, or alternatively get a job and find both money and self-respect.

I'd demand he open it and take a pic of the entire bill. They donated money to help him pay his water bill. It should have been paid with the donated money. Who's to say this isn't just a regular bill?

Show it, MVD. My guess is it's either a regular bill or the original past due amount and he pissed away the other money donated.

Sadly (for Matty), that's probably true. 

The boy went to the well too many times.  He'll never be able to do this again on Skins' island.

His best options are to take all of the advice the primitives offered him, some of which must be good.

And failing that, Matty needs to go to church and find God, asking God not for money, but to show him how to earn his own money.

It's all very sad.  For Matty.

I was wrong; I forgot about a third option.

The first two being taking the advice of his fellow primitives, or allowing God to help him.

Matty could also get a gun and rob a convenience store, but not at the beginning of a shift, when the cash register hasn't had time to fill up much.  Best to do it near the end of a shift, when the till's brimming with cash.

Well, since this particular DUmpass is a) too lazy to work and b) too lazy to even fill out forms to get government handouts and c) his voluntary go-fund is now a dead-end, that is likely the next logical step: just forcibly take  from people who have what he wants.

I am so appreciative of DU! I just need one more goal right now. Then if I ever do a GoFundMe again, I will go through all the advice and actions I take and be honest about how they have helped. Rather than do another one, best to keep this up. With all the emergencies, no special budgeting would have gotten me out of this one.

F'er's still at it.  :rofl:

37. Remember that..

My last GoFundMe had to go to the large electric bill. So it didn’t help my overall finances.

The other 2 were for emergency situations. I was in a hole both times.

So that is why this one was needed. Again many added expenses. But the advice is looking great (both with budgeting better and services/solutions) and mom has found a doctor she likes. If we could just meet the goal this one time, I feel things will be better.

I admire his persistence. This is someone who doesnt give up.  :popcorn:

Yep, get a new name, rack up a few thousand posts with "dRump is an idiot", "AOC is a strong leader", or "Biden is doing great with what TFG left him" posts and he's good to go.

MVD, if you're reading, here's your advice. You ain't got no job, and you ain't got shit to do.

It wouldn't surprise me in the least to learn that the con artist mvd has sock puppets on reddit, hide5, old elm tree and all the other web sites leftist scum inhabit, probably with substantial post counts on all of them. God knows as a species frauds like Matt are lazy, and tend to stick to what works for them, until they run the tactic into the ground.

I'm wondering how long he has before a mod gets sick of his little bump game...

39. I see the dentist tomorrow again
A tooth might need to be pulled if I don’t get in soon. This was just discovered. We already have $100 left now and even a Medicaid dentist would hurt at this point. So that is why I am keeping this going as it is urgent. I know there are many caring people ar DU.

Apparently, he's discovered this on his own because he surely can't afford a dentist appointment where they would tell him this. The scam escalates ...

It's amazing what gargling $0.99 hydrogen peroxide (be careful; don't swallow) 2x - 3x a day for a few days will do to kill the infection behind a painful tooth abcess, bud. Somebody (like me) who's had to go a few days before he could get into a dentist a time or two figures this kind of shit out - or gets told about ideas like this by friends who know he's not just scamming them because living on a budget is hard.

Nothing changed.

I'm starting to wonder if maybe Matty Boy isn't retarded; "retarded" in the "mentally retarded" sense, as his perception of things is so underdeveloped.  A low IQ?

But at any rate, that shouldn't bar him from finding a job, particularly a job that pays instantly, such as being the walking sandwich-board (or whatever it is called), the guy with one board in front of him and another in back, held by leather straps over the shoulders, painted with the message such as EAT AT JOE'S.  Besides earning himself some ready cash, paid daily, walking up-and-down the sidewalk might melt off some of his excess lardage.

If this goes on much longer, I suppose I shall have to ask EarlG Lord Marblehead to kill the thread so as to protect Matty Boy from the nastiness of the primitives.

54. They are not "bad" checks

The bank agrees to pay the overdraft and adds overdraft fees for the service

Certainly no crime here. I am not sending checks either.

Yeah, dipshit, they are and it is a crime. Overdrafts are for accidents, I.e. using a debit card when you already have a check not cleared, etc. You are KNOWINGLY writing bad checks knowing damn well they won't be covered.

§ 4105.  Bad checks.
        (a)  Offense defined.--
            (1)  A person commits an offense if he issues or passes a
        check or similar sight order for the payment of money,

        will not be honored by the drawee, issues or passes a check
        or similar sight order for the payment of money when the

        this paragraph shall occur without regard to whether the
        location of the issuance or passing of the check or similar

His toilet saga is hilarious:

Quote
In addition, the downstairs toilet broke and looks like it has all kinds of problems. My mom is an older widow and can’t get up our tall stairs so often. It won’t flush at all. A plumber would likely cost at least $200 for this repair.

As several people on this thread, and even some of the DUmmies, have pointed out, fixing a toilet is one of the simplest home repair jobs.  It only takes a few tools, 15-20 bucks in parts and can be done in an hour.  In fact, an entire brand new toilet can be bought for less than $200.

Quote
And no the toilet has multiple problems. The water company said the water usage doubled and it was because of the toilet always running and then it ran out of water. I am not handy. I’ll need a plumber to look at it. Things are not so easy.

Sounds like the water company had someone come out to find out why their water bill was so high, found that the toilet was running non-stop and shut the cutoff valve to the toilet.  But, mvd appears to think that the toilet has "run out of water" like it had a limited supply of water in it when it was installed and that supply has finally been used up.

Quote
mvd (64,278 posts)

14. Mom fell tonight going up the steps

It is so important she gets the toilet repaired. She is ok but might have sprained her ankle.

Of course his mother was almost crippled by the toilet situation.  He wouldn't be begging if not for his mother's plight.  He cares so much about his mother that he's gonna look inside the toilet, familiarize himself with what's inside the tank, watch a few YouTubes to learn how the fix the problem, run up to Home Depot to get the parts and get that toilet working in no time.  Ha ha ha, no quit laughing, really he's got this, he'll start working on it just as soon as he finishes updating his beg-a-thon.  Be patient, he's gonna being working on it any minute now.

But finally, the toilet is fixed!!!!  Yeah!!!!

Quote
The dentist was more than expected today ($280) as was the toilet as the plumbing to it was broken. Of course, I am in overdraft again because of everything.

The plumbing to it was broken?  The plumbing to it is a pipe coming off the main water supply and a cutoff valve at the toilet.  If the pipe was broken it's been leaking behind the wall for a month which means his whole house is flooded (which he hasn't mentioned).  If the valve wasn't seating properly, it would be leaking by, which doesn't lineup with his claim that the toilet had no water.  If the plumbing on the sewage side had a blockage then the toilet would have been overflowing all the time if it was always running.  So I got a funny feeling that maybe his toilet motherboard was shot, his water inlet solenoid was probably worn, the flushing relay needed to be replaced, the toilet tank and seat were out of alignment and, of course, the toilet transmission needed an oil change.  That will definitely run you several hundred dollars.

I would like to think that he's just scamming the DUmmies, but I do know of people this pathetic.  A friend of mine had an uncle who was working in heavy industry well into his seventies.  He could have retired at any time, had a good pension and he couldn't physically do the work any more.  But he kept working because he had two kids at home just like mvd.  Middle-aged, never worked a day in their lives and totally useless.  My friend's uncle didn't think he could support all four of them on his pension and he wouldn't kick the kids out or tell them to get jobs.  Of course, he eventually died and his wife and kids had to fend for themselves.  Their story is exactly like this DUmmies tale.  They couldn't budget what they got from his pension, burned through whatever savings he had and very quickly were behind on every bill and were looking at bankruptcy.  And, just like mvd, they mooched money off of every friend and relative they could and then got pissed off when people quit giving.  The mother died in a nursing home and the kids are living off of welfare and they resent anyone who has two nickels to rub together.

The "toilet saga" was thee final giveaway for me. Who can't install a new cartridge in a toilet tank? Even if someone has no clue, 5 minutes watching a youtube video answers all questions. It mmay be one of the simplest of all home repairs.
So yea, this guy is full of it, but he gets my support. He's scamming DUmmies out of their money, and stupid is supposed to hurt.

It is so great how they have caring people who listen. Mom and I need more of that in our lives. They help you navigate a maze of phone numbers but just as good is how they treat you with dignity.

Well now. Is someone getting desperate? Couple options I see.

1. Actually called because he realized the Gravy Train was crossing a bridge that went kaboom?

2. Pretending to call to continue the scam. Especially since umpteen Muppets have called him out for not calling.

My vote says #2.

United Way is probably the one that would help with utility assistance

And of course finding ways to make our budget more manageable

Hopefully they tell your mother to kick your fat, parasitic ass out of the house. Can't live off your mother's social security you piece of shit. It's hard enough for seniors to live alone on it if they didn't think about other means beforehand. It's "supplemental". It was NEVER supposed to be a retirement. Your mother's #1 problem? You.

His excuses for not figuring out how to get himself to the stores which are only around a mile and a half away are great.  When asked why he doesn't just walk, rather than blow money on Ubers:

Quote
Walking is terrible where I am despite being close to things. Uber is expensive. I have seen one county site that may have transportation opportunities.

Quote
The only place I can walk to is a high school, and I am way beyond that.

Note that the high school is directly across the street from his mom's house.

Quote
I can not walk, period, for example. My mom has no stamina and I am not in shape and it is a dangerous path/road. Should I risk falling and getting hit? You have the right to say this but I don’t have to agree with all of this either. You either try to live or you live a bad life. I try to live ok. 

To this DUmmy walking further than the distance between the couch, frig and bathroom is a guaranteed death sentence.  And I love that he threw out that his mom has no stamina, like people were suggesting that she walk to the store.  No Matt, people are suggesting that you get off your fat ass and take care of your mother.

Someone recommends getting a bicycle.  Same excuse:

Quote
I appreciate the ideas. But as I said before, the path to the stores is on a dangerous road. My mom and I once got in a bad wreck in a normal car. Reducing Uber expenses is a good idea, but I think the county seems to have some services that can help - especially with my mom’s age and me being on Medicaid. Somehow I do need to lower these expenses.

But when looking at the Google map around his mother's house I noticed that, right next the high school that apparently is within his walking capability, is a city bus stop that stops at all the places that he frequently goes to.  It runs all day Monday through Friday with limited service on Saturday.  The stop is only a few hundred yards from his mother's house.  I fully expect one of the DUmmy lurkers to read this and inform Matt that all his transportation woes are solved.  All he's got to do is utilize the public transportation options that are readily available to him.

Yeah, I think he's screwed the pooch as far as getting any more $$$ out of the DUmmies.  It only took them about $10k to learn Matt is useless and a grifter but hey, education ain't cheap no matter where you get it.

I think he should never posted that he called 211 as late in the game as he did.  That was a simple thing to do and he waited close to a month to do it, not to mention he says he started filing for disability last year, yet makes the claim he's been disabled his entire life.

Matt is one of those people who simply isn't going to do anything he can get others to do for him, or until he's pressed into such a corner he has no recourse.  I think he actually thought if he posted he called 211 he might get some more financial support.

He's a master at bumping his threads though.  Post a little tidbit without any information on it and then let the DUmmies ask you about results for the next few hours so they bump it without your input.   :rotf:

Show us a photo of the budget you have created over the past three weeks, maybe we can help with suggestions.
I'm guessing that after 3 weeks since this latest fundraiser was started, you should have also had time to research costs and outline a food allocation with a list of items as well. Show it to us, we may be able to help with that as well.
Have you searched your local Craigslist for a cheap bike yet? Have you posted any want ads on your local NextDoor website looking for a low cost or free bike?

Well now, its getting serious. The Muppets are demanding the evidenced that MVD has reformed and is moving towards a semi-productive state. At least as productive as a Progressive can be. And that aint much.  :popcorn:

It just got even more stupid. His answer to DUmmies asking to see his budget is to lower his goal amount from 1800 to 1500. Now everyone should surely be happy to give him more cash, right?

I also always find it somewhat amusing when people like him think that bankruptcy is the answer to their problems. haha...  go ahead, file it. You ain't SEEN problems yet little buddy...

78. I made a change
Took out the overdraft as many have complained about it. Reduced the goal to $1,500 to cover the extra dental expense and plumbing repair expenses. This fits the fundraiser.
Today I was calling places suggested to look into for seniors. I found one that if subsidized housing goes through may be doable. I have to see how a possible bankrupcy would affect the move.
Indeed we need to get ourselves set up for the future. I don’t regret this thread because I have learned a lot.

You know what sweet Justice would be?  His mom getting someplace really cool in subsidized senior housing. The perfect place for her. And she’s not allowed to have a child live with her.

Im confused. I cant remember the post, but he talked about bankruptcy wiping out the old utility bills. Im no expert, but I thought those were off limits to the bankruptcy courts? I could certainly be wrong. Wouldnt be a first.

Completely laughable, the idea of budgeting the overdraft fees. Its the equivalent of budgeting in a loss.

Bankruptcy would wipe out his past utility bills, but not the ones incurred after that.

Maybe his mother owns the house, and owes on a mortgage on it?  Maybe there's a car, with monthly payments still due. 

Maybe there's some credit card bills?  And medical bills?  But only the past due, and not the current and future, obligations would be wiped out.  And one has seven years to go, before one can file for bankruptcy again.

Excepting for the house, which is apparently in foreclosure, I'm not seeing where Matty Boy and his mother would gain any substantial benefit from filing bankruptcy.

He needs to give it up and go out and find a job.

Unfortunately Frank, Matt has made it abundantly clear that WORKING for his sustenence is entirely outside of any option he'll consider.

I think it exceptionally likely that the best possible outcome to mvd's story will be Matty Boy living on the streets within the next year or so, panhandling. The options go downhill from there.

I wonder how long he would last in a job?

Matty Boy acts as if this fundraiser is going somewhere; in blunt fact, it's been stuck for a long time now, no new contributions since the highly suspicious $120 (15 days ago) and $600 (25 days ago).

It'd be nice if he paid attention to his fellow primitive Ptah.

I do like the commitment to the scam. Always just on the cusp of being able to close the thread. Just need a little more $$$$$$.

And I for one would like to know what more advice could the Muppets give MVD? What hasnt been covered? And thats a genuine question. He has been spoon fed everything known to mankind on how to turn the situation around. Even,... dare I say it.. Primitives going as far as to tell him to get a J.O.B.

As much "ink" as Matt has invested in conning the DUmmies out of their "beer & travel money", he could have taken to writing the same grade of bullshit ...umm, fiction and publishing it as an e-book series on Amazon. Even if he only sold 5 or 6 copies of each penny dreadful, he'd still have come out ahead.

So his mother got her social security check the other day, and he "donated" $500 himself from that.

And then withdrew it.

Remember, gofundme allows early withdrawals, but it doesn't change what's been raised.

Of the $1700 raised, $1260 has been Matty's own money "borrowed" from his mother's social security.

If I remember correctly, GFM charges the panhandler a fee when they withdraw the money, as well as a fee to the donor when they make a donation. They're definitely not hurting for "beer & travel money".

The way I understand it--and I may misunderstand it, so if anybody wishes to correct, please do so--gofundme takes a goodly chunk out of the funds raised.  If a donor wants a refund and the fundraiser is still active, gofundme gives the donor back all of his money.  If the sponsor of a fundraiser wishes to withdraw proceeds before the fundraiser is over, gofundme allows him to do so, but amputates a substantial chunk of that.

Just an update
Social Security disability called today and they sounded happy. They were just checking on when my hearing test is - it is August 13 at Costco. My friend will take me since I am not a member. I don’t know if the tone of the conversation means anything, but I hope it does.

DU has been wonderful giving me the support I need while I sort things out. Words can’t express how wonderful DU has been. I am still in a hole but what was given in the last GoFundMe is giving me some time. My mom and I had a nice middle class lifestyle for a long time and it has been a hard adjustment. It is like we didn’t know how to be different. But things will be better for us if we make uncomfortable changes - both in our budget and seeking services that can help.

Still talking to an aunt through Messenger, but she is uncomfortable with how we broke communications off. Having a little family back would be nice.

I really hope to have good updates soon. I never meant to dismiss anything - if you felt dismissed, I am sorry. Mom and I need better times and are exploring opportunities.

Some good political news about the raid on Trump’s place helps my mood.

How can social security sound "happy" when all they know about him is his application, as he hasn't had the hearing examination yet.

I don't understand how they can be either "happy" or "sad" about it.

Matty Boy needs to remember that the Biden administration has been coming down hard on applications based upon partial hearing, and alleged perceptual disorders.  And that he's under 40 years old doesn't help, nor that he never had a job where he paid into the system. 

And they just hired a lot of auditors to investigate claims.

It's the Biden administration making it hard on him.  Too bad.

First, who the hell still has an "answering machine"? Im pretty sure, somewhere, way back, MVD said he didnt have a landline. Cell phone only.

Secondly. With Uber. Like other ride share and of course Taxis, you pay at the time of service. How can you owe an Uber driver for helping you out? Unless the Uber driver did it as a favor off the clock so to speak.

Thirdly. Poor Matt has tapped out the Friend, and the Relative wont be deceived.
