Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started!

His ABA account number is 001150030.
and the account is in the name of Van Wyk Jacques, so that's his real name.

Then how exactly is he planning to repay the loan?

He apparently works at western school since july.so dunno what his done with his wages. He should ask for an advance. Cant see anyone helping him.
If true at least he has a job - I guess he's not teaching accounting or financial management then.

Like fax I'm gonna hazard drugs or hookers as there is no valid normal reason to be down and out, barring illness or accidents if you are working and living within your means.

Western pay is reasonable, they are financially stable and pay a few days late at most.

I'm speculating of course. More facts are required from the guy as to how and why..

So he owes people money already and owes lots of money and needs $2500, how much does he earn a month? Most apartments are say (for someone not earning over $1500) (as a presumed tefler from south africa hes probably on less) would be $250- $400 yet he needs $2500. Clearly owes some big people money on his ponzi scheme. Give me $2500 to pay all my debts but I won't give you any guarantees about when I'll pay you back. Its clear that he has scammed everyone he knows including probably his school and nobody left to ask. Another white SA tefler dreamer he needs to give the nights out a rest.

I see he's a servant of God so thoughts and prayers to him. He can always cancel his aba account and get the $10 deposit back ...

Now is that true! My lady changed bank's. ABA phoned her about her $10 deposit and told her it's cancelled and kept her deposit.

Zero sympathy and zero fucks given to be quite honest.
Why? Let me break it down as I read it.
Due to matters out of my control
Really? Out of your control or were there reckless decisions made that you now regret?
I am behind on the rest of the deposit amount for my apartment,
So you haven’t even paid a full deposit? And of course you are behind on the rent and all bills. Was this also “out of your control”? Or more likely a case of poor decisions culminating in his current situation.
, I have not been able for the past 3months to get my medication for ADHD, depression, anxiety and Insomnia.
And that statement alone cries pathetic loser.... oh no.. woe is me it’s not my fault. Get a grip ffs. You decided, given your “medical” history the best thing would be to move to Cambodia! Man up, face your problems and deal with them before they become a problem for the rest of us. You should never have left the safety of your mothers apron strings.

Please note, I wouldn’t normally respond to these types of posts but this one needed me to vent. And given everyone has an opinion on these down and outs I thought I might as well throw my bit in the pool as well.

My 7 year old can handle his monthly school money better than Ponzi Guy.

I asked him if he could spare the guy some cash.. Nahhhh. $10 bucks pay back $100 with smartphone as collateral.
