    I spent many years working in law enforcement in New Orleans especially during and after Hurricane Katrina. Right after the storm when the entire French Quarter was dark and mostly deserted except for us Louisiana State Special Officers and the National Guard. Myself and the Guard unit I was paired with met a man who came out of nowhere clean and well dressed which was not possible at this time and he introduced himself as Jack. Later in the conversation he said he was Count St. Germaine. We were skeptical and asked him if he needed help and he said no but we did and then he was gone. You can say what you want but this happened in front of two State Officers and 6 National Guard members and we reported this to our HQ and they even heard him speaking while we were on the radio.

    Here is my take on the character. The guy was probably raised in a good noble family. He was accustomed to the nobility and knew how to press their buttons. In this way, he could always find ways to infiltrate their circles by playing on their fantasies (alchemy, eternal life). The guy was a great self-promoter before the word was invented. At one point, his legend took a life of its own and we still have disciples of the man even today. The fact that Casanova, who was a master manipulator, did not hold him in high esteem says a lot.

    You left out one of the most famous stories of saint Germain. Once he was entertaining a rich family at a dinner party and he played the piano for their daughter. At that time she was 10 years old then.
    And 40 years later they met again. She came up to his and commented how much that he reminded her of another gentleman she knew when she was a child.
    But it couldn't possibly be the same man because he was in his early 40s at the time. That would make him over 80 when they met again. So she asked him if maybe it was his father or some other relative.
    He smiled and said of course I remember playing for you and your family. Even though he didn't look a day older than when she knew him.
    But he did Revolutionize the textile industry not in Ceramics or porcelain or dishes though. But in fashion back there they made green dye from arsenic and it was very poisonous. He made a safe green dye for clothing.

They rarely stay on the job for long enough to face real accountability, but now they have something traceable to add into their CV. "Was he working in your company?" Is usually all the new employer asks, not how good impact they had in their previous position. Of course, these successful con men are very good at explaining any failures on their part and their need to move on.

      That is precisely what it says. The Kingdom coming with power, however, refers to the ID of YiTRiCh or TeReM YiTsMaCh which is the ability to erase clouds by command which is the equivalent of Saymeon en te Uranos in Koine Greek "coming in the clouds". This is a person standing on the ground and projecting their energy from TsiYoWN up among the clouds and erasing them. This programs the atmosphere of the earth and in fact kills people. It's a sign, ID that Jesus has to have to be the Messiah, Moshiach, 1 Ha'aDaM. And, those people already saw it and died. Not to say they didn't reincarnate.
      It is NOT someone coming down from the clouds of the world accepting this person as the LORD (YHWH) requires and them doing as required concerning Him. Because if they don't their Soul dies when their bodies die. MoWTh TaMoWTh, they are destroyed completely, body and Soul. KaL ShaChoWTh.

    Maybe the Count was a disgraced mariner, unjustly arrested for a crime he didn't commit, and he was educated in prison by a fellow prisioner who happened to be a priest, escaped and found a great treasure, to then come back, join the aristocracy and exact revenge on everyone who wronged him.

    The count of St. Germain was probably what we would consider a chameleon these days. Basically, he slips from life to life or from person to person simply by gaining a few friends in a slightly higher level than he is at hanging out with them. Learning about them learning what he can about history from them and then moving to another city. Where he does the same each time he moves. He increases his level of education and his level in society as he just simply tells people what he is, and they pretty much have to believe him as he can. Verify quite a bit that somebody would know from that level of society

    The Count of Saint Germain is a fascinating enigma that perfectly illustrates how legends can outshine reality. This man, who seemingly appeared out of nowhere, captivated the elite with his charm, musical talent, and mysterious origins. It’s incredible how he navigated high society, leaving everyone guessing about his true identity. His story raises profound questions about the nature of fame and the allure of the unknown. Was he a master conman or a genuine immortal? Regardless, he reminds us that sometimes, the most compelling narratives are those shrouded in mystery. In a world obsessed with transparency, perhaps we need a little more intrigue!

They have made so much money selling the personal information of the very people they are taking money from with the promise of helping them connect with therapist to improve their mental health. It's even more sad when that means either A) one of the smartest people on UA-cam isn't doing any research let alone a simple Google search on the sponsor B) you have sold your integrity and chose money over the viewers that may be looking for a solution to mental health problems... either way that is disappointing.
    Better help is just another evil company looking to put profit over people disguising itself as a caring organization, there are far better options that don't sell out their customers who are already in a bad place.

    You forgot one crucial part of the story about him being the son of Prince Rakoczi; The story goes he was shipped off in secret and raised as a ward of the de' Medici family, which would more than explain his broad range of talents. Npw if this happened when he was 4 years old, they could have told him he was a different age and he wouldn't be any the wiser. That would have made the year his father was born and how old he told he was before he died completely negligible. The de Medici may have even instilled in him the idea he could "be anyone or anything he wanted" to be forever an aid to him in keeping his identity a secret.

      40K is a pen and paper role-playing game who's story is based around a Immortal caveman who leads mankind to a utopian golden age through the knowledge he gained since the beginning of mankind.
      And then goes into a coma after fighting his children (clones of himself) to the death in a civil war, and then the whole universe gets overrun by the forces of hell which are Unleashed because he was the only one holding them back.

The next day just before noon, the man showed up at the bank, prepared to pay, but expecting to collect $10,000 from his bet with Giuseppe. In the Bank Manager's office, Giuseppe said, "Mr. Bank-a Manager, pull down-a your pants." Then he grabbed the Bank Manager by the balls, and said, "I lost, Mr. Bank Manager, you do not have square balls. Here's your hundred dollars." You understand now, don't you?
