| Its not like the bank lost 40k. They already counted the $$ and is on file. It was probably going back to the mint to get burned. |

1...It was 20 K...
2...I would pay off my credit card...
3...Nobody would lose other than the insurance company...and the Securicor employee who got a 3 day suspension... |

even after giving up the 40K, TD gave her a 2,000 rewward for returning it, However the government told her that, that 2,000 would be taken out of her welfare cheques. So she even gave the reward money back! Mcquinty then invited her to parliament and promised that she would be able to keep the 2K and have a regular welfare cheque. I must admit, it feels good to know that people like this still exist. |
Yes, that a valid point, I thought about that too ... if she didnt tell anyone though, she would have never had to worry about that ...
I guess she is not a needy person then, she probably gets more from welfare than ME WORKING MY ASS OFF THE WHOLE MONTH to pay rent/bills .... I earn around 850 bucks a month, pay 450 rent and still have enough for everything else ... but I cant really save for something big. You see, people like me ACTUALLY NEED THAT MONEY! She gets enough money FOR DOING NOTHING!!!!! She probably gets more money than me!!! WTF!!! :whip: |

It's amazing what transpires from a little honesty.
She deserves everything that's happening from her self-less act and I love reading about it.
Read and learn people! ;) :D |
I am more than SURE she earn over a grand from welfare ... I earn about 850 bucks a month ,,, I work my arse off at McDonald's, and she gets it for nothing. Plus I may have plans, unlike her - she doesnt need to do anything to live her life - just a guaranteed paycheque from the government ... I bet she's living just fine
When I lived with my parents, our neighbour - she had 2 kids - she received $1100 every month. More than me now ...

Not to split hairs but:
a) you don't earn anything while on welfare
b) you aren't raising six kids! :eek:
But you are right.
There is defintely something wrong with the system when someone can sit on their ass, do nothing, and collect more than a hard working person doing their time.
I remember being on EI and turning a job down because I was going to make more money sitting at home than spend 60 hr/wk of my life commuting across the city to work... |

man ppl are so naive. IMO like united way, unicef,etc....i dont believe in it. its bull. they just keep the money and it goes to like making bombs. get this: why in the holy fuk would the americans go bomb a country or ruin it (ie. like most countries in africa--ya the US iS all responsible for the poverty over there! it wasnt born a 3rd world continent, it was made..by the US:D ) and then ask the citizens for money to help the africans back out??????? so first the kill the africans.. |
You're kidding me right:( ?....Drought has devestated many African countries so I don't think that the U.S. can change the climate and you'll have to prove to me that Unicef has anything to do with making bombs...I swear that if I was hearing this on "All in the Family" , this is what would come out of Archie Bunker's mouth:rolleyes: |

My point exactly..............that's why i'd prefer to give it to the Toronto food bank b/c I know i'm handing it right into the hands of the hungry and no 2nd or 3rd party gets a crack at claiming a portion of the $$$. When they get it...........it immediately goes to purchasing food for the needy....and no $$$ goes to administration, b/c all admin is voluntary and not-for-profit.

OK Magnetonium and Fir3start3r, don't take this personal but what's wrong with you two.....Even is she gets $2,000 a month, which I doubt she does...........she can hardly support the kids & herself on the welfare $$$ she gets. Kids cost a lot. Are you forgetting what it was like to be a kid with needs for school?
A single person alone with a $900 rent will usually get anywhere from $690 to $750/mth based on the area they live in. Tell me how are they supposed to afford anything, let alone a mother of 6.
And if you think a mother of 6 just sits on her ass........then you must think that all mothers are irresponsible drunks that smoke and ignore their kids.
Sits on her ass..........I DOUBT IT guys.......more like breaks down from exhaustion after 6pm. BTW, no babysitter would charge any less than $1,000 per month to look after those kids.......so if she went out to work........she'd be lucky to get any money to afford food or clothes for the kids.
BTW....EI amended their criteria.......now if you are offered a job for $7.15/hour and you turn it down, then EI turns you down too. You can thank Mike Harris for that amendment to our employment standards.
Anyways.....that's all I gotta say on this. |

"Finder's keeper" might be okay if it's $5. But $40k! Principles notwithstanding, I'd be too scared for my life to keep it.
If I don't own something, it's not really my place to decide to donate it. I would try to find the place that would dish out the largest reward (finder's fee or whatever they call it) and return it. So I wonder, would the police have given more than $2000? |

I guess it did kind of sound like I was picking on the woman but then again, see my point >>>B<<<
;)
My reference to 'sitting on one's ass' was more meant for those without 6 kids... :p
I'm not that heartless... |
