Thank you, Cindy 🙂

LOL! Not yet, but they’ll find me 🙂 All one has to do is send a few dollars to ANY of these organizations – I’ve sent as little as $5 and $8, and you’re on their lists, and they forward your info to other organizations. It doesn’t take much! I can hardly get my mailbox open, some days. And each place is getting peanut money from me and I do mean “peanut”.

Right back at you with that, Rip 🙂 Great to read your victory too 🙂

Very nice win, Aquamarine.

(also, did you give to the Arbor Day Foundation? They send you trees and stickers and labels and stuff!)

this is wonderful.

One day I was driving up to an intersection and saw a person there with a sign for help, and all hell broke loose in my mind

I ripped open my wallet and shoved what little cash I had in the fellas hand as I came up to him, it wasn’t much, ten or twelve bucks.

I was pretty filled with rage at the enormity of the highjacking of my humanity.

Giving to a “DB” that’s what those MotherF*ckers would consider it. It’s “HARMFUL to give to downstats”

That moment of seeing him stays with me. I give what I want, when I want.

I’ve always been happiest helping, doing things for others. Every bit now, is healing.

Giving, in so many ways, has been a huge part of reclaiming a bit of my soul.

It’s wonderful to read your victory. 🙂

You know, that’s true. For the past 6 months I’ve been tithing small amounts (and I do mean “small”) each month to various and sundry causes and charities. I am now on EVERYBODY’S list but that’s ok. Animal rights, animal adoption efforts, feeding people in the 3rd world, soup kitchens in my city, national park preservation, support for organic farming, paralyzed vets, cripples who paint and draw with paint brushes and crayons in their teeth – all kinds of things. I send small amounts – VERY modest sums, to pretty much whatever comes in, each month. I fill out surveys too. Never more than $175 a month but I send out a LOT of checks.

And let me tell you: it comes back to you, helping the truly needy. It really does!

I think of the money I unknowingly threw away on the IAS and Ideal Orgs – not that much compared to many others but so much more than $175 per month!

And yet, this small amount has brought me luck AND business, during the darkest days of the pandemic.

The Bible is right. Its not just “outflow = inflow”. Its TO WHOM and TO WHAT you outflow that brings the good luck.

This might sound esoteric but I do believe that the reason I didn’t experience good luck and good fortune after having given (for me) substantial moneys to the IAS and Ideal Orgs was ONLY because these programs were SCAMS. They were NOT helping ANYONE. Of course at the time I BELIEVED they were helping. But they weren’t. Ergo, no good luck came to me from contributing to them despite the amounts being much greater.

This is a concept that is actually blowing me away. During the pandemic I’ve also been if you’ll pardon the expression religiously giving things away – clothes that don’t fit that were mistakes, even if they’re nearly new and wearable, ditto shoes, boots, gloves, jewelry…kitchen things, sheets…just… things. Just stuff. I don’t really like it, it doesn’t make me happy – out! Somebody wants it, somebody needs it, somebody is GLAD to have it! Let me tell you, this is a great feeling! And it brings me luck!

Thanks for reading my “win” 🙂

I note your post above included comment about a huge amount of effort in this online age to expand. I find this very interesting and timely and would be interested to see if others are seeing increased activities across the world.

Possibly because of the Covid pandemic this sets up non-contact platforms to drive up revenue and clandestine recruitment opportunities. I am aware of a business being ramped up here in Australia with direct links back to WISE and the Hubbard Administrative Technology which is raising some red flags with me. Would be interested in what others may have observed along with how strong a WISE still is.

Happy to prove names in a private email at this stage.

The same experience in scientology I meant to say if that wasn’t clear.

Okay – No two people had the exact same experience. Many factors go into it..
