I was homeless in 2020, with no family and no support. People like this make me so irrationally angry. If someone had told me being homeless was my choice, I have no idea how that would have impacted my mental health at the time. It’s absolutely abhorrent that they can say things like this for financial gain.
I'm with you on this, I was homeless for the majority of my late teens (16-19) and you have every right to be angry. These people could never NEVER understand but it's better for your soul to not let them take residence in your mind, don't try to understand their insanity. You are above them in EVERY way
When I was homeless, I had support around me and even then hearing something this awful would've been absolutely wrecking. These people have such an awful mindset and view on the world. I'm absolutely disgusted by them, they have absolutely no clue what it's like and if they ever get a taste of it they are going to be destroyed.
Goes to show how entitled those people are, they had the luxury to pretend to be homeless and have the gall to pretend that it's a choice because they had one? They truly don't know how good they have it. Disgusting.
The beginning of this in her video it gave off the same vibes as the girl who said, "If you're homeless, just buy a house." This shit comes from such a privileged point of view in life. She has probably never had to actually struggle in life before.
Social media in general has issues with toxic positivity, blaming "mindset" and the like for things like poverty, mental illness, physical illness, etc. Telling people to be grateful, even if they are poor. It's actually quite a big problem.
That's why I don't support Marianne Williamson for president. That is how she got rich, and you can still see it in the way she talks (as you'd expect, since she's advocated that as the best philosophy in life for decades).
Totally agree! I mean it's one thing to say that there are some steps you can take to improve a shitty life circumstance. Illness, poverty, etc. isn't always this damning, unbeatable thing you'll have to suffer with forever. There is hope that things will get better, and maybe a few things you can control to help yourself. But saying "it's a choice," "it's a mindset," is such a slap in the face and extremely unhelpful to anyone going through it. Not to mention just plain false. And it always seems to come from someone who has NEVER had that experience. Hearing the story of how someone managed to escape poverty might be inspiring. Hearing a rich asshole tell you it's your fault that you're poor helps no one.
Yeah I feel like there's this growing culture of 'empowerment' where they bastardize the concept of having choices & being an active participant in your life / future and conflate it with the concept of everything being under your direct control & influence. Its hella delusional & unrealistic, life is so much more complex & multifaceted than that
It could be an MLM. There are several MLMs that sell courses, and after u join, u recruit others into the courses, so that u keep getting "free" mentoring.
@loladelmar130 that's even worse. At least (and I use that term in its loosest possible definition) in a product based MLM you end up with actual product. Sure you might be drinking Herbalife for a year or wearing Lululemon tights for a decade but at least you have A THING to show for your lost money.
I was homeless for basically the whole year of 2022 and by absolutely no means was that a “choice”. When I wasn’t sleeping in local woods (where wild animals could attack me whenever) I was sleeping on benches or just a blanket on concrete. I promise that is never something I would have done by choice
does that woman think you’re homeless every time you step out your front door? like what if i’m taking out the trash? am i homeless for the 2 minutes it takes to put the bins on the curb???
wait so her target audience are people struggling financially and her solution is to convince them to buy her course which really just makes her more money?
I mean, you already said it all Callum but as a person who has been working themselves up out of homelessness for three years, I still wouldn't trade my life for theirs because I enjoy having a conscience and not saying stupid shit that people can look up about me until the end of time. That one girl's thoughts on homelessness are honestly the most facepalm-y things I've ever heard
I hope no one would. More than likely this is all bs. Dude prob is legit attempting to start a cult but the house is probably rented. A fake till you make it cult.
Honestly. I lost everything, experienced homelessness & got into drug addiction in the most random, unexpected way and I always say I wouldn't change anything. Hard times teach you more than any book or lesson ever could. And I've noticed that the most kind, giving & compassionate people are those who have had it rough. Most of the time we want better for others & for them to not have to struggle. The disdain from people like this is always palpable and it isn't never from someone truly revolutionary or super impactful on the world 🙄 Anyway, wish you the very best! Hope you're able to settle down comfortably soon 💜💜
You're obviously a damn resilient person. Resilience is an amazing character trait and will take you far in life. Your determination, tenacity and great attitude (I'm sure you've had some shite low points) makes you a truly good person and I sincerely hope that life is being kind to you now. These morons are so out of touch with reality, they're morally bankrupt. Aren't we glad that we're nothing like them? Take care.
My husband works in a shelter for homeless people. It's not a choice. They got so many different people coming through. The young guy kicked out because he came out as trans. The people that lost their way to drugs or alcohol. People that lost their job during covid and didn't have any savings so they couldn't pay rent. The old 80 year old woman who got scammed by a romance scammer and sent her entire retirement fond to him. Etc, etc. Every person comes with their own story but it was never a choice to any of them.
yes, i chose to have my house destroyed in a hurricane and lose my job to the destruction of the company. I was definitely just wanting that to happen to me for sure. mandy opened my eyes lol. now it wasn't my choice to be homeless, but it was 100% my choice to get a job and work my ass off to get out of it
Yeah I chose to be homeless from 16 to 19 and then decided I was done with that experience. Now I'm a billionaire whose daughter is saying "homelessness is a choice" on the internet making a complete fool of herself 🤣 Edit: she's not my daughter, I'm 27 lol but I'd imagine her parents are VERY proud of their useless child. She could be a great ad for condoms
@@justnana13-klj40 To be honest, my mum used to say it to my brother, sister and I when we were being naughty. "You're behaving like you've been dragged up not brought up!" 😂 Unfortunately, this does actually apply to some adults. 👀
I've been homeless for nearly a year now, and this stuff pisses me off. I was lucky that I was able to get some help, but I still had to work to get us in a slightly better position. Now we're living in a motel, barely getting by. This whole thing has damaged my mental health so bad that it's a struggle to even muster the motivation to get out of bed. I'm so tired all the time, and I physically feel myself getting worse with each passing day. This all started because the bank sold the house under our noses with no warning.
"I was homeless for 3 hours" Oh really? Did you got to a shelter? To a soup kitchen? Did you pitch a tent in the brush next to a busy highway in the cold and hope you didn't freeze overnight because of hypothermia? Did you get shooed away by the police for sleeping on a bench? For asking for money? Did you nearly get hit by cars while walking between them to ask for change? At best, hun, you just sat in a public place to beg for pocket change, and nothing more. Don't even COMPARE yourself to a homeless person. You're insulting them.
@@virginiawatts4B I was reading that the pavement is so hot there right now ppl who fall are getting 3rd degree burns. If I remember right there were a couple ppl who even died from their injuries because they were disabled and unable to get back up easily so they just laid on the asphalt burning 😞
Spot on girl!! I was homless for many years, the first time when I was only 10 years old, and it was a hell that is hard to describe. I also have autism and 7 other disorders/diagnoses, wich made life even harder alone, I would say Most homeless people do have some diagnoses/disorders too, and it just makes is so hard to fight for yourself No one wants to be homless, I know it hard to understand when you never have been there, but many if us are just so lost and broken, loosing everything, especially when you're so young, it just breaks you. And broken is hard to fix if you dont get help, wich also is hard to get when you dont have a home... And, like it did for most of my homless brothers and sister, since the chaos started when I was so young I never learn anything else than being homless. Drugs were the only thing keeping me alive, crazily and sadly enough, but it kept me warm and alive (wich I know is also hard to understand, but there is nothing else that so effectively makes you both warm, "happy", and feeling no hunger). So it took me until just a few years ago, thanks to an amazing woman who found me and refused to get up on me, she found me no matter were I was haha, my guardian angel, to finally being able to fight myself to were I am now. In my scraggly lil apartment who I love so much, happily married with our degus(squirrely looking rats, they are half chinchilla and half gerbil haha, behaving EXACTLY like lil dogs, comes running when called on, they demand cuddles, scritches and alot of love, and I have whole lifes worth of love stored, so they are good Haha!) and most of all, sober and clean 6 years haha, I'm sooo grateful, life is so amazing, I never thought I I have such an happy life 😭 but no one in my life thought that either so, haha Okay this got waaaaay to long but that's typical me, can't just write a few words explaining my point, I blame my autism 😂 "If the world is at war, if we dont have peace, it's because we have forgotten that we belong to each other" ❤
@NathalieCwiekSwiercz Congratulations on turning your life around and staying sober. That’s such an incredible accomplishment. I wish you a lifetime of stability, sobriety, blessings and happiness. May God bless you. 💕
@@NathalieCwiekSwiercz That's incredible-- congratulations, hun! And honestly, I don't mind the long read. ^^ But please, please never let some airhead like the girl in the video take away from everything you accomplished. No matter what someone like her says, you have a beautiful, healthy life to be proud of, one that you worked hard for, not one that you "chose". So congratulations, from 2 strangers on the internet. ♡♡
Thank you Markie for covering this. I'm currently homeless. I post my story on my UA-cam. These people are the reason why the homeless ARE HOMELESS! These people are selfish, self centered, entitled, and evil. I got sexually assaulted because I'm homeless. WAS THAT MY FAULT? NO! It's not the homeless that needs help. These people need a reality check. Most people are a paycheck away from being homeless in America due to inflation. I get $300 a month in food stamps. But because prices on food went up, I have no choice but to eat unhealthy foods I can actually afford. And I still run out of my food stamps within 2 weeks! You don't know what its like to be homeless UNTIL you have no one & no home to go home to. Have you had to pick out food out of a garbage can because you were so weak & hungry? I don't think they have. This upsets me. I'm still homeless. How am I supposed to get a job with no shower, a cat, & 2 suitcase to put where while I'm working?? Anyways, good news. I'm a recovering addict. My rehab wants to hire me as a drug counselor. I will have a government job w/a salary. They pay for your schooling if youve been a patient there for 2 years & clean for 2 years! Got that! Sober for 10 years now. And everyone that works there loves my emotional support animal that saved me from drugs/relapse.. Btw if you are reading this and you are homeless or struggling, hang in there. Don't give up! Email me if you need someone to talk to! 🙏 Click on my head for my channel. I love all of you and YOU ARE WORTHY OF BEING LOVED NO MATTER WHAT YOU ARE GOING THROUGH! YOU ARE VALIDATED AND YOU DO MATTER SO MUCH TO ME! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
It's great to hear that you've got a great job lined up. If it's not too personal can I ask doesn't the US have unemployment benefits? Or if you have addiction issues sickness/disability benefits? I'm in Australia and we have these. We also have health care, including mental health for all , employed, unemployed, retired, disabled, students, pensioners etc... It's free at the point of service as our usual income taxes pay for it. There's also rent assistance and other financial help available. The usual base payment unemployment benefit per fortnight for a single person is around $750 au without any of the extras like rent assistance and I think that's around an extra $150 per fortnight. There's also extra discounts on utilities plus a $400 payment every 2 years for electricity and gas on top of the extra paid fortnightly. You also get a concession card for public transport and medication so a script costs about $7 for pretty much everything from inhalers, insulin, antibiotics etc... What help do you get aside from food stamps please?
@@elenawilliams32 dude… i need to move to Aus 😅 the UK’s benefits system is janked, but that’s because all the rumours and stereotypes about british people “living off the dole/scamming benefits” is lowkey true in some areas/circumstances… Australia has it so right! but what do you expect? they were the only ones that did Covid right too 🤣
She sounds like she’s taking basic expressions such as “happiness is a choice” and “don’t overthink things” to the extreme. Honestly she’s probably doing it on purpose to get views. A lot of these content creators have their gimmicks and hers is just radicalizing basic life lessons. It’s all gotten so ridiculous yet predictable.
I like how every influencer/content creator's get-rich-quick scheme is basically no different than the old school pyramid schemes... just without the corny sales catalogs and instead, wrapped in empowerment rhetoric (in this case, more of a tough love culty rhetoric). Most these courses and workshops just teach you to do what the teacher/guru is doing, which is selling basic information on how to sell stuff or make content. You'll make money as long as you can find other people to make money off of. It's just a chain of people teaching each other to be salespeople lol
I will say, these people severing all ties with family and friends doesn't really help the cult case. If a genuine cult is trying to recruit people, getting them isolated and away from their support network is one of the first steps (after love bombing and dangling some sort of "prize" in front of them). I also notice that - based entirely off the UA-cam page so I could be wrong - this group is one man who has three women living with him and singing his praises. This doesn't confirm its an up and coming cult, it's just something I found odd. Like a situation that could absolutely lead to some dangerous territory, depending on what type of person the main guy is.
Honestly just feels like rage bait to get people's eyes on their BS courses. The new "word of mouth" tactic seems to be "have you seen what this crazy lady said? Go look!" and it's unfortunately very effective. I'm also not surprised the shop page says nothing about what the books are meant to teach you. Scam victims can't sue you for scamming them if you never promised them anything in particular in the first place.
Every other video I saw about this only went surface level on Mandy, but you dug deeper and what you found is quite disturbing. Definitely cultish vibes, but it doesn't excuse their disgusting comments. I am poor as f, financially, but I definitely am much richer in common sense and life experience than that whole household seems to be...yeesh.
There are people with less that are happier than they'll ever be Imagine if they finally get some common sense and refuse to make anymore of the "trashing the less financially stable" videos will they be kicked out of the house and dropped like a bag of bricks
She went out knowing that in 3 hours she'd be going home, the homeless hang out where they are or wander around maybe they have a camp to go to maybe they don't. The average person/family is 1 paycheck away from being homeless.
I recently had a conversation with a well-off friend who claimed that if you were raised in poverty then your parents screwed up. No sympathy for the disabled, addicted, and mentally ill. Must be nice to be so oblivious to such things.
I chose to be homeless for close to a decade, I knew some people who couldn't live in a house after being homeless for long enough, Im an exception to the rule though and most other homeless people I knew weren't homeless on purpose or by choice. Also, you can't really get the true homeless experience in three hours, it usually takes the changing of seasons at the very least, being beaten by the police, or experiencing other acts of random violence for you to truly realize the gravity of your situation. Cool story though...
My brother was essentially homeless by choice. He seemed to love it exactly because it was like a little adventure for him. He was also really into drugs and thought it was all fun. The problem was that so many people tried to help him because they just thought he was a normal homeless person who was down on their luck or sick.
If you're choosing to be homeless, and you could choose not to be whenever you want, it's not really true homelessness Because one of the worst most negatively impactful aspects of homelessness is knowing you have no choice, no way out, not knowing how you'll get by the next week Having no image of the future And things improving, being stuck in that cycle, that downward spiral that stretches onwards infinitely and bleakly into an abyss Of course all the obviously bad stuff like food scarcity, no money, sleeping rough, getting robbed and attacked, cold/heat, no showers or hygiene, health issues and especially LOSING your identity etc etc is really horrific and miserable Plus the correlation with mental illness But what compounds all of that and makes it so much worse is not seeing any end to it, not having a way out or a choice in the matter, no foreseeable escape from all those things, no future... Not just from my personal experience, but very much almost a universally echoed experience in homelessness (not "deliberate" "homelessness" (??) )
Did you experience homelessness overnight, with nothing to sleep in/on? No warm coat /sleeping bag, decent clothes? No food or drink in your belly already, plus a healthy immune system and no current illnesses, mental health problems addiction or other health conditions? If so did you have the medicine you needed? Were you afraid of being robbed/assaulted or murdered? Were you in trouble with anyone? 😅
I was homeless twice and the second time was just recently the first time the shock of being homeless put me in the mental hospital. The second time I ended up in a DV shelter and was in danger. I didn't want any of it. I hated it. I was grateful for the shelter but I never wanted to be homeless
The one thing that frustrates me the most about people who talk smack about homeless people is many of them don't get that you usually need a job to apply for an apartment and an address to apply for a job. This creates an impossible chicken and the egg scenario that is really hard to get out of.
what is overlooked often is that in order to get a job you need a homeadress... in order to have a homeadres you need an offical ID .. in order to get you a new ID you need a homeadres ... aka you are fucked if you are homeless and have no passport/ID its a circle yo ucant get out
I have a car, and that enables me to work and go places. I can still walk to the store if I feel like it and in fact, make it a leisurely mental health stroll in nice weather. If I didn’t have a car already, I’d have an issue getting a job and getting a vehicle. My walking wouldn’t be voluntary and pleasurable, especially in extreme weather. I can choose to go carless, but I won’t because our town is laid out to make it hard to do anything but drive. Poverty and homelessness are not choices.
Yoiur friends and family not wanting to be around you isn't a "them" problem. If everyone in your life no longer wants to be around you, then the problem isn't everyone else, it's just you. And it's the same thing that happens to people who become part of an MLM. Or some serious messed up ways of thinking like Moms of Truth and.........The People's Temple.
Once, I went to the city for the day for two ice skating sessions, one in the afternoon (~12:30-4pm) and the other was at 9pm or so. It was the beginning of winter so it was semi-tolerable with the clothes I had on but it was still a fairly unpleasant experience. I was short on money and after I ate the dinner I packed at a park bench, I walked around the city, sometimes sitting tucked away on the ground because the places to eat in my budget had nowhere to sit. There was literally nowhere to sit (not counting the ground) outside of that little park area near the rink (that closed at sunset) unless you paid money. Even at the train station all of the seating was past the turnstiles. I ended up with a whole new outlook and understanding of how hard it must be for those stuck outside during the winter months. I don't understand how someone could feel such little empathy for the homeless after trying to put themself in their shoes. By the way, I don't consider what I did "pretending to be homeless" or anything, it just gave me a whole new understanding of how cities have been designed in such a way to make being homeless even harder than it must already be.
No one would chose to be homeless. Especially where I live. Pheonix Arizona. I absolutely feel awful for people who are homeless in such a hot place. It was 119 degrees this summer. Make sure to bring extra waters in your car.
Being on the poverty line my whole life and hearing "put that away" or "we don't have money" every time I asked for something in the store or anywhere on that matter made me very tight fisted. And I've recently been diagnosed with depression. Let me tell you, being poor is not a choice, it's not a state of mind, it's a fucking real struggle, constant feeling worse than anyone because you can't afford to feed your family because you either eat or pay the bills. It's the worst feeling in the world when you're being picked on for not having newest phone or for wearing the same shoes for more than 6 months (yes happened to me too many times to count) People who always had food on their table can't grasp the concept of it being a true blessing to eat dinner every day. When will people get that eating dinner everyday or having roof over their head is a real privilege and be grateful for it?
I got made fun of once because my house keys were plain and ugly. And because my mom shopped at the thrift stores. Being poor sucked and the weird things people made fun of your for didn't help
@@rosesweetcharlotte I'm sorry to hear that. I hope it's all better now. Shopping at thrift stores isn't bad at all. Store like every other. This was just worn a few times.
This is how I feel about being a single mom I was so happy to have my son, I made a poor choice to do the deed out of wedlock but, I was so proud of myself for doing everything I could, like graduate college get a home for him ext… all the people online making fun of me calling me used up and disgusting for being a single mom broke me for awhile until I talked to my dad, and he cried over how proud he was of me… you have to ignore people who are awful inside like these girls, and talk to people who love you and are good happy people. Glad you made it out (: I am with an amazing man and my son is 5, I love my life in my tiny apartment with my tiny family and no one will ever make me feel less for having my son, I’m not used up, I’m a mother and I’m proud of my son .

These kids seem like the type that may of grown up with $ but didn't get enough hugs & love from Mom & dad & if they did their parents were the type that says "my child could never do wrong" or you know the type that tells their 15 yr daughter they are a "great" singer & should go on the voice & then find out what everyone else really thinks of their"great" singing ‼️ Trophy for participating (That should be only for ages 5 & down)‼️
@@michaelio6548 she's something special. When i went on the show, everyone bragged about how nice and real she is, but i decided shortly thereafter they were paid to say that shit.
Ever since covid and has gotten so much worse The prices of housing has just gone through the roof and nobody here can afford it People are struggling For some reason prices of housing Food and other necessities has been allowed to just skyrocket There is no where left to rent! Nobody is choosing this it has been put upon us there needs to be laws Where prices can't just be raised ridiculously
"lol I am entirely incapable of empathising with other people & too stupid to understand people have different circumstances lol lol lol". What awful people
She will never have that hopeless feeling & no where to turn the homeless have. Esp not in 3 hours. I seen a real elderly homeless man outside on the highway corner of the Walmart entrance. There were tornado warnings. He was trying to raise $40 for a 1 person tent. The Walmart employee & manager came all the way out to the corner of the hwy to run him off! 😡 They wanted him entirely off the Walmart property. I can't imagine the dread he must've felt. It was so sad. he was begging for change to get a tiny tent. Hoping to get $40 before it hit. Like that would protect him from a tornado, wind,& rain. It was pitiful. I came out of Walmart & couldn't find him anywhere. When it's really cold out or bad weather warnings I always think of him & all homeless.😢⛺💔
The only part you missed is in her early TikToks where she talks about doing a ton of psychedelics. It seems to me like she blew out her brain on drugs and met some rich cultish guy who saw an easy target to take advantage of. I really hope she has some friends or family that can help her, she seems like she’s in a very vulnerable situation.
Dude thank you, I found their tik toks and channel a few days ago and immediately got a culty vibe, and the whole permanently tripping to unlock your mind?! Like what are they on about and also the kid…. can’t give any definitive reasoning, but the girls and the kid all in the house with a dude that won’t take his glasses off? Weird
I would honestly like to see this chick try 'homelessness' in winter, without the sanctuary of her mentors house or a shelter. Then she will truly see how it feels
20k? I could have a hole-less roof 🤦🏻♀️ Maybe I'm too focused on working on my house so I can bring my children home with me....... perhaps I should do nothing. 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
Who in their right mind would choose to be homeless? That is one of my biggest fears, so anyone being that, or has been and gotten out of it, has my biggest respect. They are so strong, and an inspiration 🥰🥰🥰 PS. Love your dog!! 😍😍😍
Oh my! Homeless for 3 HOURS??? I suppose she put this on the inter webs because if she said it to anyone on real life they would probably : 1. Knock her lights out 2. Laugh uncontrollably 3. Have her committed
3 mins in, i'm flabberghasted, even just the caption "...it's a choice, like EVERY experience" ummm ok, so apart from homelessness... if someone gets sa'd, it's their choice as well? i hope somebody is going to humble her for real
Thought the same thing… so tearing my colon in two places (rolling over in bed) was a choice? Is it a choice that I’m now disabled and can’t work?.. people like her should be rounded up and sent to an island and just left there.
I remember a journalist student in my country in the 90's going full homeless for a year (without touching base with his prior life or going home to his family) his recount of his experience was completely respectful, most of it was telling life stories, and that was his graduation thesis that later was made into a book
There is something insidious about a Black man saying he’s not gonna tell you some “ sob story” about the experiences of inequity and then everyone else saying it’s your fault if you’re poor like…
My monthly revenue for my business is higher than $20k in 10 days, but, trust me, it's hustle and work. My wife has Alzheimer’s and is only 58, advanced was young, and I have to pay for everything and I want only the best for her, so that drives me hard.
I almost bet that they’re all in an crappy! MLM! It reminds me of old friends , that I haven’t talk to in decades, that message me about a “business opportunity “.
That sounds like a classic trafficking scam. I see a lot of ads for "secretary/personal assistant" on craigslist and it's like a dude who wants a young girl to live with him for "free" with access to shopping, as well as "no car necessary" and "a full furnished bedroom" smfh disgusting.
BRO I literally was just scrolling through and then saw this video. I went to school and cheered with this girl on the cheerleading team. Her name is Amanda. She was so kind and so nice but she joined this group a few months ago and it’s been wild to follow.
My family insists my mental heath issues are a choice It was my choice to be traumatized, because my grandmother took me to Disney and I could have chosen to focus on Disney instead of the abuse at my parents house, but I chose misery because I'm terrible
It’d be really cool if you could do a video on Jack Monroe and her grifting. I used to think she was good and helped poor people in the UK by advocating but I fell down a rabbit hole that showed she isn’t what she portrays herself as. She’s actually quite a shady character and has allegedly stolen people’s money. No one seems to talk about it outside of Twitter…
Could you expand on your comment, or give some indication of what to search for? She's stolen from the poor has she? Like a regular Sheriff of Nottingham? Edit: I searched for 'Jack Monroe grift' and found some stuff, nevermind! 😅
@@Naptosis Also if you type scam after her name on Twitter. I think there used to be an account that had compiled stuff together about her lies with receipts/ screenshots but it got shut down
@@Naptosis I remembered the account name it was “ Awfully Molly “ who talked about all this stuff. If you search that in google alongside J M name I’m sure you will find plenty.
i was literally like "shes def got a sugar daddy or smth and it inflated her ego" THEN U REVEALED SHE LIVES W A RICH GUY AND I WAS LIKE ". . . i fUCKIN KMEW IT"
I was homeless twice for two very different reasons within a 9 month period. But yeah it’s insanity and she has not a clue what it really is like. I do really appreciate your take on homelessness because you’re exactly right. The stress when you don’t even have your own bed… come on girl
I 100% believe that the "Mentor" saw Andrew Tate blow up, being made fun of and then gain a following, and thought, "If I surround myself with pretty women and make _them_ say stupid things, *I'LL* get a MASSIVE following!" and went ahead and did this. They're probably getting payed to say this.
I was homeless in 2020, with no family and no support. People like this make me so irrationally angry. If someone had told me being homeless was my choice, I have no idea how that would have impacted my mental health at the time. It’s absolutely abhorrent that they can say things like this for financial gain.
thats not irrational at all, you are 100% justified in being angry and upset about someone saying such a ridiculously out of touch thing
I don't know about you, but what I saw was, get a sugar daddy, be a leech, delusional or paid actresses and actors, idk, background check on them?
I'm with you on this, I was homeless for the majority of my late teens (16-19) and you have every right to be angry. These people could never NEVER understand but it's better for your soul to not let them take residence in your mind, don't try to understand their insanity. You are above them in EVERY way
When I was homeless, I had support around me and even then hearing something this awful would've been absolutely wrecking. These people have such an awful mindset and view on the world. I'm absolutely disgusted by them, they have absolutely no clue what it's like and if they ever get a taste of it they are going to be destroyed.
Goes to show how entitled those people are, they had the luxury to pretend to be homeless and have the gall to pretend that it's a choice because they had one? They truly don't know how good they have it. Disgusting.
"how did you pretend to be homeless for 3 hours? isn't just going outside?" I laughed so much, thank you 😂

The beginning of this in her video it gave off the same vibes as the girl who said, "If you're homeless, just buy a house." This shit comes from such a privileged point of view in life. She has probably never had to actually struggle in life before.
This also gives old school dude bro guru vibes at the end. I didn't realize women wanted into toxic masculinity as well.
I'm sorry this is not privilege, this is ignorance
i can def see her bein like "how r u homeless? u have a phone 🙄" like phones cost more than houses 🤨

Social media in general has issues with toxic positivity, blaming "mindset" and the like for things like poverty, mental illness, physical illness, etc. Telling people to be grateful, even if they are poor. It's actually quite a big problem.
That's why I don't support Marianne Williamson for president. That is how she got rich, and you can still see it in the way she talks (as you'd expect, since she's advocated that as the best philosophy in life for decades).
@@swiftsetI feel the same about her, I was scarred by her awful books that were given to me as a badly abused & traumatized girl.
It's very American, prosperity gospel, the 'Secret', kind of thing.
It's disgusting wilful ignorance and privilege.
Totally agree! I mean it's one thing to say that there are some steps you can take to improve a shitty life circumstance. Illness, poverty, etc. isn't always this damning, unbeatable thing you'll have to suffer with forever. There is hope that things will get better, and maybe a few things you can control to help yourself. But saying "it's a choice," "it's a mindset," is such a slap in the face and extremely unhelpful to anyone going through it. Not to mention just plain false. And it always seems to come from someone who has NEVER had that experience. Hearing the story of how someone managed to escape poverty might be inspiring. Hearing a rich asshole tell you it's your fault that you're poor helps no one.
Yeah I feel like there's this growing culture of 'empowerment' where they bastardize the concept of having choices & being an active participant in your life / future and conflate it with the concept of everything being under your direct control & influence. Its hella delusional & unrealistic, life is so much more complex & multifaceted than that
Not even done with the video, and asking “which MLM does she shill?”
That was my question too! 😂
Oh, wow. They are not shilling an MLM. They are shilling a “course” to scam huns and would-be huns. 🤦🏻♀️
It could be an MLM. There are several MLMs that sell courses, and after u join, u recruit others into the courses, so that u keep getting "free" mentoring.
really? I was thinking webcams, a la andrew tate
@loladelmar130 that's even worse. At least (and I use that term in its loosest possible definition) in a product based MLM you end up with actual product. Sure you might be drinking Herbalife for a year or wearing Lululemon tights for a decade but at least you have A THING to show for your lost money.
I was homeless for basically the whole year of 2022 and by absolutely no means was that a “choice”. When I wasn’t sleeping in local woods (where wild animals could attack me whenever) I was sleeping on benches or just a blanket on concrete. I promise that is never something I would have done by choice
Was is hopefully an indication your situation has changed, I wish you the best for the rest of 2023, & 2024.
Hope you're doing better, buddy. Wouldn't wish that on anyone. God bless and good luck.
I pretended to have cancer for 3 hours, and it made me realize that having cancer is a choice.
😹
does that woman think you’re homeless every time you step out your front door? like what if i’m taking out the trash? am i homeless for the 2 minutes it takes to put the bins on the curb???
Oh no I just too the trash out, I was homeless and didn't even know it.
wait so her target audience are people struggling financially and her solution is to convince them to buy her course which really just makes her more money?
Sounds like it, yeah
& her teammate's solution is apparently to tell them to gfto . it's giving mixed signals
naah that's mlm for the same audience as Tate - angry teens with money, who wants to be better than everyone fast
Pretty much yea
I mean, you already said it all Callum but as a person who has been working themselves up out of homelessness for three years, I still wouldn't trade my life for theirs because I enjoy having a conscience and not saying stupid shit that people can look up about me until the end of time.
That one girl's thoughts on homelessness are honestly the most facepalm-y things I've ever heard
I hope no one would. More than likely this is all bs. Dude prob is legit attempting to start a cult but the house is probably rented. A fake till you make it cult.
Lmao, good luck btw you’re doing great
@@justkittensbeingkittens5892 Thank you! How sweet 💕
Honestly. I lost everything, experienced homelessness & got into drug addiction in the most random, unexpected way and I always say I wouldn't change anything. Hard times teach you more than any book or lesson ever could. And I've noticed that the most kind, giving & compassionate people are those who have had it rough. Most of the time we want better for others & for them to not have to struggle. The disdain from people like this is always palpable and it isn't never from someone truly revolutionary or super impactful on the world 🙄
Anyway, wish you the very best! Hope you're able to settle down comfortably soon 💜💜
You're obviously a damn resilient person. Resilience is an amazing character trait and will take you far in life. Your determination, tenacity and great attitude (I'm sure you've had some shite low points) makes you a truly good person and I sincerely hope that life is being kind to you now. These morons are so out of touch with reality, they're morally bankrupt. Aren't we glad that we're nothing like them? Take care.
My husband works in a shelter for homeless people. It's not a choice. They got so many different people coming through. The young guy kicked out because he came out as trans. The people that lost their way to drugs or alcohol. People that lost their job during covid and didn't have any savings so they couldn't pay rent. The old 80 year old woman who got scammed by a romance scammer and sent her entire retirement fond to him. Etc, etc. Every person comes with their own story but it was never a choice to any of them.
yes, i chose to have my house destroyed in a hurricane and lose my job to the destruction of the company. I was definitely just wanting that to happen to me for sure. mandy opened my eyes lol. now it wasn't my choice to be homeless, but it was 100% my choice to get a job and work my ass off to get out of it
i really really wish people held these jerkwads accountable for the shit they say
Yeah I chose to be homeless from 16 to 19 and then decided I was done with that experience. Now I'm a billionaire whose daughter is saying "homelessness is a choice" on the internet making a complete fool of herself 🤣
Edit: she's not my daughter, I'm 27 lol but I'd imagine her parents are VERY proud of their useless child. She could be a great ad for condoms
OMG your last sentence made me choke! 🤣
😂😂😂😂hahahahaha
To say the crap she's saying... She's clearly been dragged up, not brought up. Ugh.
@@elenawilliams32I like that. "Dragged up, not brought up". Never heard that, but that is excellent.
@@justnana13-klj40 To be honest, my mum used to say it to my brother, sister and I when we were being naughty. "You're behaving like you've been dragged up not brought up!" 😂
Unfortunately, this does actually apply to some adults. 👀
I've been homeless for nearly a year now, and this stuff pisses me off. I was lucky that I was able to get some help, but I still had to work to get us in a slightly better position. Now we're living in a motel, barely getting by. This whole thing has damaged my mental health so bad that it's a struggle to even muster the motivation to get out of bed. I'm so tired all the time, and I physically feel myself getting worse with each passing day. This all started because the bank sold the house under our noses with no warning.
"I was homeless for 3 hours"
Oh really?
Did you got to a shelter?
To a soup kitchen?
Did you pitch a tent in the brush next to a busy highway in the cold and hope you didn't freeze overnight because of hypothermia?
Did you get shooed away by the police for sleeping on a bench? For asking for money?
Did you nearly get hit by cars while walking between them to ask for change?
At best, hun, you just sat in a public place to beg for pocket change, and nothing more.
Don't even COMPARE yourself to a homeless person. You're insulting them.
Being homeless is hell in AZ it's so hot the sun can kill you and I had to do it twice this was not a choice
@@virginiawatts4B I was reading that the pavement is so hot there right now ppl who fall are getting 3rd degree burns. If I remember right there were a couple ppl who even died from their injuries because they were disabled and unable to get back up easily so they just laid on the asphalt burning 😞
Spot on girl!!
I was homless for many years, the first time when I was only 10 years old, and it was a hell that is hard to describe. I also have autism and 7 other disorders/diagnoses, wich made life even harder alone, I would say Most homeless people do have some diagnoses/disorders too, and it just makes is so hard to fight for yourself
No one wants to be homless, I know it hard to understand when you never have been there, but many if us are just so lost and broken, loosing everything, especially when you're so young, it just breaks you.
And broken is hard to fix if you dont get help, wich also is hard to get when you dont have a home...
And, like it did for most of my homless brothers and sister, since the chaos started when I was so young I never learn anything else than being homless. Drugs were the only thing keeping me alive, crazily and sadly enough, but it kept me warm and alive (wich I know is also hard to understand, but there is nothing else that so effectively makes you both warm, "happy", and feeling no hunger).
So it took me until just a few years ago, thanks to an amazing woman who found me and refused to get up on me, she found me no matter were I was haha, my guardian angel, to finally being able to fight myself to were I am now.
In my scraggly lil apartment who I love so much, happily married with our degus(squirrely looking rats, they are half chinchilla and half gerbil haha, behaving EXACTLY like lil dogs, comes running when called on, they demand cuddles, scritches and alot of love, and I have whole lifes worth of love stored, so they are good Haha!)
and most of all, sober and clean 6 years haha, I'm sooo grateful, life is so amazing, I never thought I I have such an happy life 😭 but no one in my life thought that either so, haha
Okay this got waaaaay to long but that's typical me, can't just write a few words explaining my point, I blame my autism 😂
"If the world is at war, if we dont have peace, it's because we have forgotten that we belong to each other" ❤

Thank you Markie for covering this. I'm currently homeless. I post my story on my UA-cam. These people are the reason why the homeless ARE HOMELESS! These people are selfish, self centered, entitled, and evil.
I got sexually assaulted because I'm homeless. WAS THAT MY FAULT? NO!
It's not the homeless that needs help.
These people need a reality check. Most people are a paycheck away from being homeless in America due to inflation. I get $300 a month in food stamps. But because prices on food went up, I have no choice but to eat unhealthy foods I can actually afford. And I still run out of my food stamps within 2 weeks!
You don't know what its like to be homeless UNTIL you have no one & no home to go home to. Have you had to pick out food out of a garbage can because you were so weak & hungry? I don't think they have. This upsets me.
I'm still homeless. How am I supposed to get a job with no shower, a cat, & 2 suitcase to put where while I'm working??
Anyways, good news. I'm a recovering addict. My rehab wants to hire me as a drug counselor. I will have a government job w/a salary. They pay for your schooling if youve been a patient there for 2 years & clean for 2 years! Got that! Sober for 10 years now.
And everyone that works there loves my emotional support animal that saved me from drugs/relapse..
Btw if you are reading this and you are homeless or struggling, hang in there. Don't give up! Email me if you need someone to talk to! 🙏 Click on my head for my channel. I love all of you and YOU ARE WORTHY OF BEING LOVED NO MATTER WHAT YOU ARE GOING THROUGH! YOU ARE VALIDATED AND YOU DO MATTER SO MUCH TO ME! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
It's great to hear that you've got a great job lined up. If it's not too personal can I ask doesn't the US have unemployment benefits? Or if you have addiction issues sickness/disability benefits? I'm in Australia and we have these. We also have health care, including mental health for all , employed, unemployed, retired, disabled, students, pensioners etc... It's free at the point of service as our usual income taxes pay for it. There's also rent assistance and other financial help available. The usual base payment unemployment benefit per fortnight for a single person is around $750 au without any of the extras like rent assistance and I think that's around an extra $150 per fortnight. There's also extra discounts on utilities plus a $400 payment every 2 years for electricity and gas on top of the extra paid fortnightly. You also get a concession card for public transport and medication so a script costs about $7 for pretty much everything from inhalers, insulin, antibiotics etc... What help do you get aside from food stamps please?
@@elenawilliams32 dude… i need to move to Aus 😅 the UK’s benefits system is janked, but that’s because all the rumours and stereotypes about british people “living off the dole/scamming benefits” is lowkey true in some areas/circumstances… Australia has it so right! but what do you expect? they were the only ones that did Covid right too 🤣
She sounds like she’s taking basic expressions such as “happiness is a choice” and “don’t overthink things” to the extreme. Honestly she’s probably doing it on purpose to get views. A lot of these content creators have their gimmicks and hers is just radicalizing basic life lessons. It’s all gotten so ridiculous yet predictable.
I like how every influencer/content creator's get-rich-quick scheme is basically no different than the old school pyramid schemes... just without the corny sales catalogs and instead, wrapped in empowerment rhetoric (in this case, more of a tough love culty rhetoric). Most these courses and workshops just teach you to do what the teacher/guru is doing, which is selling basic information on how to sell stuff or make content. You'll make money as long as you can find other people to make money off of. It's just a chain of people teaching each other to be salespeople lol
I will say, these people severing all ties with family and friends doesn't really help the cult case. If a genuine cult is trying to recruit people, getting them isolated and away from their support network is one of the first steps (after love bombing and dangling some sort of "prize" in front of them). I also notice that - based entirely off the UA-cam page so I could be wrong - this group is one man who has three women living with him and singing his praises. This doesn't confirm its an up and coming cult, it's just something I found odd. Like a situation that could absolutely lead to some dangerous territory, depending on what type of person the main guy is.
Right? I’m surprised not more people pointed out the dynamic. It’s definitely a little suspicious.
Feels like a great way to end up homeless
She needs to come here to Canada and experience sleeping outside in a tent in the freezing cold winter and then tell me How it's not worse or better
Our New Zealand. Four seasons in one day isn’t a lie 😂
Honestly just feels like rage bait to get people's eyes on their BS courses. The new "word of mouth" tactic seems to be "have you seen what this crazy lady said? Go look!" and it's unfortunately very effective. I'm also not surprised the shop page says nothing about what the books are meant to teach you. Scam victims can't sue you for scamming them if you never promised them anything in particular in the first place.
Every other video I saw about this only went surface level on Mandy, but you dug deeper and what you found is quite disturbing. Definitely cultish vibes, but it doesn't excuse their disgusting comments. I am poor as f, financially, but I definitely am much richer in common sense and life experience than that whole household seems to be...yeesh.
There are people with less that are happier than they'll ever be
Imagine if they finally get some common sense and refuse to make anymore of the "trashing the less financially stable" videos will they be kicked out of the house and dropped like a bag of bricks
She went out knowing that in 3 hours she'd be going home, the homeless hang out where they are or wander around maybe they have a camp to go to maybe they don't. The average person/family is 1 paycheck away from being homeless.
I recently had a conversation with a well-off friend who claimed that if you were raised in poverty then your parents screwed up. No sympathy for the disabled, addicted, and mentally ill. Must be nice to be so oblivious to such things.
“its a choice” we already starting off strong 🤠
I chose to be homeless for close to a decade, I knew some people who couldn't live in a house after being homeless for long enough, Im an exception to the rule though and most other homeless people I knew weren't homeless on purpose or by choice. Also, you can't really get the true homeless experience in three hours, it usually takes the changing of seasons at the very least, being beaten by the police, or experiencing other acts of random violence for you to truly realize the gravity of your situation. Cool story though...
My brother was essentially homeless by choice. He seemed to love it exactly because it was like a little adventure for him. He was also really into drugs and thought it was all fun.
The problem was that so many people tried to help him because they just thought he was a normal homeless person who was down on their luck or sick.
3 hours isn't even being homeless, that's just called being outside.
@@rosesweetcharlotteYour brother sounds like a -tourist- poorist. No offence intended.
If you're choosing to be homeless, and you could choose not to be whenever you want, it's not really true homelessness
Because one of the worst most negatively impactful aspects of homelessness is knowing you have no choice, no way out, not knowing how you'll get by the next week
Having no image of the future And things improving, being stuck in that cycle, that downward spiral that stretches onwards infinitely and bleakly into an abyss
Of course all the obviously bad stuff like food scarcity, no money, sleeping rough, getting robbed and attacked, cold/heat, no showers or hygiene, health issues and especially LOSING your identity etc etc is really horrific and miserable
Plus the correlation with mental illness
But what compounds all of that and makes it so much worse is not seeing any end to it, not having a way out or a choice in the matter, no foreseeable escape from all those things, no future...
Not just from my personal experience, but very much almost a universally echoed experience in homelessness (not "deliberate" "homelessness" (??) )
Did you experience homelessness overnight, with nothing to sleep in/on? No warm coat /sleeping bag, decent clothes?
No food or drink in your belly already, plus a healthy immune system and no current illnesses, mental health problems addiction or other health conditions? If so did you have the medicine you needed?
Were you afraid of being robbed/assaulted or murdered?
Were you in trouble with anyone? 😅
I was homeless twice and the second time was just recently the first time the shock of being homeless put me in the mental hospital. The second time I ended up in a DV shelter and was in danger. I didn't want any of it. I hated it. I was grateful for the shelter but I never wanted to be homeless
The one thing that frustrates me the most about people who talk smack about homeless people is many of them don't get that you usually need a job to apply for an apartment and an address to apply for a job. This creates an impossible chicken and the egg scenario that is really hard to get out of.
I've spent more time volunteering for our homeless community than she did pretending to be one of them.
what is overlooked often is that in order to get a job you need a homeadress... in order to have a homeadres you need an offical ID .. in order to get you a new ID you need a homeadres ... aka you are fucked if you are homeless and have no passport/ID its a circle yo ucant get out
I have a car, and that enables me to work and go places. I can still walk to the store if I feel like it and in fact, make it a leisurely mental health stroll in nice weather. If I didn’t have a car already, I’d have an issue getting a job and getting a vehicle. My walking wouldn’t be voluntary and pleasurable, especially in extreme weather. I can choose to go carless, but I won’t because our town is laid out to make it hard to do anything but drive. Poverty and homelessness are not choices.
Having shelter is no better than being homeless 🤡
Yoiur friends and family not wanting to be around you isn't a "them" problem. If everyone in your life no longer wants to be around you, then the problem isn't everyone else, it's just you. And it's the same thing that happens to people who become part of an MLM. Or some serious messed up ways of thinking like Moms of Truth and.........The People's Temple.
Once, I went to the city for the day for two ice skating sessions, one in the afternoon (~12:30-4pm) and the other was at 9pm or so. It was the beginning of winter so it was semi-tolerable with the clothes I had on but it was still a fairly unpleasant experience. I was short on money and after I ate the dinner I packed at a park bench, I walked around the city, sometimes sitting tucked away on the ground because the places to eat in my budget had nowhere to sit. There was literally nowhere to sit (not counting the ground) outside of that little park area near the rink (that closed at sunset) unless you paid money. Even at the train station all of the seating was past the turnstiles. I ended up with a whole new outlook and understanding of how hard it must be for those stuck outside during the winter months. I don't understand how someone could feel such little empathy for the homeless after trying to put themself in their shoes. By the way, I don't consider what I did "pretending to be homeless" or anything, it just gave me a whole new understanding of how cities have been designed in such a way to make being homeless even harder than it must already be.
No one would chose to be homeless. Especially where I live. Pheonix Arizona. I absolutely feel awful for people who are homeless in such a hot place. It was 119 degrees this summer. Make sure to bring extra waters in your car.
I hope their parents are ashamed of them.
It’s always the most miserable people trying to make others feel worse about themselves
Yay #SirDimples ! So happy you've been posting so much!!
💖🕯️
She sounds like the family members I don't visit or talk to anymore... they always asked for money to "invest"
Being on the poverty line my whole life and hearing "put that away" or "we don't have money" every time I asked for something in the store or anywhere on that matter made me very tight fisted. And I've recently been diagnosed with depression.
Let me tell you, being poor is not a choice, it's not a state of mind, it's a fucking real struggle, constant feeling worse than anyone because you can't afford to feed your family because you either eat or pay the bills.
It's the worst feeling in the world when you're being picked on for not having newest phone or for wearing the same shoes for more than 6 months (yes happened to me too many times to count)
People who always had food on their table can't grasp the concept of it being a true blessing to eat dinner every day.
When will people get that eating dinner everyday or having roof over their head is a real privilege and be grateful for it?
I got made fun of once because my house keys were plain and ugly. And because my mom shopped at the thrift stores. Being poor sucked and the weird things people made fun of your for didn't help
@@rosesweetcharlotte I'm sorry to hear that. I hope it's all better now. Shopping at thrift stores isn't bad at all. Store like every other. This was just worn a few times.
I had a friend once say that she thought it was a choice to be homeless, I told her it's my choice to not be friends anymore.
This is how I feel about being a single mom I was so happy to have my son, I made a poor choice to do the deed out of wedlock but, I was so proud of myself for doing everything I could, like graduate college get a home for him ext… all the people online making fun of me calling me used up and disgusting for being a single mom broke me for awhile until I talked to my dad, and he cried over how proud he was of me… you have to ignore people who are awful inside like these girls, and talk to people who love you and are good happy people. Glad you made it out (:
I am with an amazing man and my son is 5, I love my life in my tiny apartment with my tiny family and no one will ever make me feel less for having my son, I’m not used up, I’m a mother and I’m proud of my son .
I’m here too fast i’m uncomfortable
It feels so weird 💀

These kids seem like the type that may of grown up with $ but didn't get enough hugs & love from Mom & dad & if they did their parents were the type that says "my child could never do wrong" or you know the type that tells their 15 yr daughter they are a "great" singer & should go on the voice & then find out what everyone else really thinks of their"great" singing ‼️ Trophy for participating (That should be only for ages 5 & down)‼️
Wow. I'd love to just manifest £20k. Even an extra £100 a month would be nice

Ever since covid and has gotten so much worse The prices of housing has just gone through the roof and nobody here can afford it People are struggling For some reason prices of housing Food and other necessities has been allowed to just skyrocket There is no where left to rent! Nobody is choosing this it has been put upon us there needs to be laws Where prices can't just be raised ridiculously
"lol I am entirely incapable of empathising with other people & too stupid to understand people have different circumstances lol lol lol". What awful people
this is giving "if you are homeless just buy a house", some people don't know how to use their brains jesus
She will never have that hopeless feeling & no where to turn the homeless have. Esp not in 3 hours.
I seen a real elderly homeless man outside on the highway corner of the Walmart entrance. There were tornado warnings. He was trying to raise $40 for a 1 person tent. The Walmart employee & manager came all the way out to the corner of the hwy to run him off! 😡 They wanted him entirely off the Walmart property. I can't imagine the dread he must've felt.
It was so sad. he was begging for change to get a tiny tent. Hoping to get $40 before it hit. Like that would protect him from a tornado, wind,& rain. It was pitiful. I came out of Walmart & couldn't find him anywhere.
When it's really cold out or bad weather warnings I always think of him & all homeless.😢⛺💔
The only part you missed is in her early TikToks where she talks about doing a ton of psychedelics. It seems to me like she blew out her brain on drugs and met some rich cultish guy who saw an easy target to take advantage of. I really hope she has some friends or family that can help her, she seems like she’s in a very vulnerable situation.
Dude thank you, I found their tik toks and channel a few days ago and immediately got a culty vibe, and the whole permanently tripping to unlock your mind?! Like what are they on about and also the kid…. can’t give any definitive reasoning, but the girls and the kid all in the house with a dude that won’t take his glasses off? Weird
That whole situation reeks of MLM cult behavior.
I would honestly like to see this chick try 'homelessness' in winter, without the sanctuary of her mentors house or a shelter. Then she will truly see how it feels
Social media has ruined the Internet 😅

Who in their right mind would choose to be homeless? That is one of my biggest fears, so anyone being that, or has been and gotten out of it, has my biggest respect. They are so strong, and an inspiration 🥰🥰🥰
PS. Love your dog!! 😍😍😍
Oh my! Homeless for 3 HOURS??? I suppose she put this on the inter webs because if she said it to anyone on real life they would probably :
1. Knock her lights out
2. Laugh uncontrollably
3. Have her committed
3 mins in, i'm flabberghasted, even just the caption "...it's a choice, like EVERY experience" ummm ok, so apart from homelessness... if someone gets sa'd, it's their choice as well? i hope somebody is going to humble her for real
Thought the same thing… so tearing my colon in two places (rolling over in bed) was a choice? Is it a choice that I’m now disabled and can’t work?.. people like her should be rounded up and sent to an island and just left there.
Bro I can already hear her saying how because you suck, you manifested an assault 😂 what a piece of trash.
This is so weird that it seems like a weird social experiment. Like it’s not real..
That first statement is WILD. I'll buckle up for the rest of the video 😭🤌🏻
Rich people cosplaying as poor people has got to be a sign of late stage capitalism
These people must not have been loved enough growing up…
I remember a journalist student in my country in the 90's going full homeless for a year (without touching base with his prior life or going home to his family) his recount of his experience was completely respectful, most of it was telling life stories, and that was his graduation thesis that later was made into a book
“Have you ever heard someone say so many words, without saying anything at all” AHAA please go off on this out of touch girl 😭😂😂
"If you're homeless, just buy a house"
There is something insidious about a Black man saying he’s not gonna tell you some “ sob story” about the experiences of inequity and then everyone else saying it’s your fault if you’re poor like…
It’s definitely giving cult like vibes!
My monthly revenue for my business is higher than $20k in 10 days, but, trust me, it's hustle and work. My wife has Alzheimer’s and is only 58, advanced was young, and I have to pay for everything and I want only the best for her, so that drives me hard.
God bless you 🙏❤️ til death do you part ❤️ prayers for your sweet wife's health 🙏
@henriettalore1572 thank you so much! She is my one and only love since 1991!
You sound like a truly amazing human being.. Prayers to you and your partner.
@henriettalore1572 thank you! Good news is we are setting up home care to bring her back home by November 1
I almost bet that they’re all in an crappy! MLM! It reminds me of old friends , that I haven’t talk to in decades, that message me about a “business opportunity “.
I worry the rich guy is taking advantage of these young people living in his house. She said she earned $20k just living her life.....
Well, yes, I would assume
That sounds like a classic trafficking scam. I see a lot of ads for "secretary/personal assistant" on craigslist and it's like a dude who wants a young girl to live with him for "free" with access to shopping, as well as "no car necessary" and "a full furnished bedroom" smfh disgusting.
BRO I literally was just scrolling through and then saw this video. I went to school and cheered with this girl on the cheerleading team. Her name is Amanda. She was so kind and so nice but she joined this group a few months ago and it’s been wild to follow.
Yeah my chronic illness was 100% my choice
My family insists my mental heath issues are a choice
It was my choice to be traumatized, because my grandmother took me to Disney and I could have chosen to focus on Disney instead of the abuse at my parents house, but I chose misery because I'm terrible
It’d be really cool if you could do a video on Jack Monroe and her grifting. I used to think she was good and helped poor people in the UK by advocating but I fell down a rabbit hole that showed she isn’t what she portrays herself as. She’s actually quite a shady character and has allegedly stolen people’s money. No one seems to talk about it outside of Twitter…
Could you expand on your comment, or give some indication of what to search for? She's stolen from the poor has she? Like a regular Sheriff of Nottingham?
Edit: I searched for 'Jack Monroe grift' and found some stuff, nevermind! 😅
@@NaptosisAll I can find are videos unapologetically promoting her 😭 can you give me the name of one of the videos you found so I can find it to?
@@Naptosis Also if you type scam after her name on Twitter. I think there used to be an account that had compiled stuff together about her lies with receipts/ screenshots but it got shut down
@@Naptosis I remembered the account name it was “ Awfully Molly “ who talked about all this stuff. If you search that in google alongside J M name I’m sure you will find plenty.
i was literally like "shes def got a sugar daddy or smth and it inflated her ego" THEN U REVEALED SHE LIVES W A RICH GUY AND I WAS LIKE ". . . i fUCKIN KMEW IT"
You hit the nail right on the head. Totally giving “Moms of Truth” vibes. Absolutely disgusting & delusional.
I love you MARKIE - you look under ALL the rocks to find the creepy, crawly, wriggly things that live there.
If "out of touch with reality" was a person/group
Kind of odd that three women are worshipping a single rich guy. 🤔
She is one of those people who found the book The Secret and believed it.
Damn.. why have I been struggling all these years?? Why didn't I think about doing nothing? 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️ #FOH
I was homeless twice for two very different reasons within a 9 month period.
But yeah it’s insanity and she has not a clue what it really is like.
I do really appreciate your take on homelessness because you’re exactly right.
The stress when you don’t even have your own bed… come on girl
The way you pronounce "poor" and "year" are awesome! I'm stuck with my silly American accent....
On behalf of the other Mandys who live on earth we do not claim her.
You know what, she’s sooo right. I CHOSE to be disabled and not be able to work. I just wanted to be broke🤷🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️ like wtf🙄🙄
He did it the hard way so I don't have to ❤
You mean Jesus? 😂😂😂
What's the point of their courses if one of them only wants to help rich people? Rich people don't need help being rich. Common sense.
It’s all about that we people create our own life 💫
How bizarre indeed.. This shit scares me.
I 100% believe that the "Mentor" saw Andrew Tate blow up, being made fun of and then gain a following, and thought, "If I surround myself with pretty women and make _them_ say stupid things, *I'LL* get a MASSIVE following!" and went ahead and did this.
They're probably getting payed to say this.
By her logic if you rent, youre homeless because you don't own it
Talking about "lessons" is giving "enlightenment" and "ascension" vibes, very culty. I love your videos, you're so funny but still nice lol
I didnt realize i was choosing to be broke this whole time 😅
