I was surfing the net and discovered an article about a family on the Upper West Side of New York. The family placed an ad in New York magazine pleading for $1 million to buy an apartment so they can stay in their wealthy neighborhood. The ad reads as follows….
"WE NEED HELP BUYING AN APARTMENT on the UWS (upper west side), 3bd 2 bath. YOU are a philanthropic, wealthy person who would not miss a million bucks and would be interested in donating (or even investing) in a highly targeted manner: to my family. WE are a wonderful, hard working middle class family who contributes to our UWS community, is entrenched, happy and desperately wants to remain on the UWS (lest the city lose yet another wonderful family to the burbs). We can afford 600-700K, so you see the predicament. Can you help us??"
Okay, since when is it fashionable to put an ad in the paper asking someone to buy you house and a million dollar house at that! They say they can afford 600-700k, WTF…. what do you mean you need help! This spits in the face of homelessness, poverty, the working poor, and any other situation that involve the needy. The sad part is it would not surprise me if these people find someone who will donate a million dollars to them, while stepping over people in need everyday. If I met the family member that placed this ad I would slap the taste of their mouth (as mama would say), because if you have at least $600,000 to work with you are already doing better that 85% of Americans, and you got the nerve to be begging. Nothing surprises me anymore. Since they can ask for someone to buy them a million dollar apartment…...... can I get someone to pay off my Hyundai Excel, and my Macy’s credit card… Holla at yo girl if you can help.
