So Long and good luck all

[Sean_Goddard]

I shall not be visiting or posting on this website in the future. The bank is trying to steal my home, lying I owe them money, when they have sold the debt on (and the admitted it in writing, but ONLY after they'd won in court).

Unless I can rainse £250,000 in the next two weeks, I will lose my home of 55 years, the one my Grandfather built and which holds so many happy memories.

I will not live anywhere else, so the ONLY way they are getting me out of here is in a body bag, and it's hard to use a computer when that happens, so Adios, Amigos. It's been fun.

In case this is not one of your unusual jokes, in case you are not currently in some special mental state where you look at things very black... (sorry for my skeptical thoughts) ... I have to tell you something very honest right now!
You've been on the forum for years, you're an old member, I feel like I know you (not enough, but I still consider you a fellow forum member), I follow your posts. Many of your posts are very good and I congratulate them.
I will tell you clearly and briefly: stop with such nonsense! #uck the house!
The only thing that is essential is your health, freedom and peace. Head on shoulders!
Houses are built and demolished. Houses come and go. #uck it!
My beautiful homeland was in a terrible, bloody and hellish civil war for 10 years.
The most important part of my life was destroyed, through no fault of my own.
I was severely damaged for life because of it, first of all mentally.
Just when that hell was over and I thought I would breathe a sigh of relief; my younger son was born and he was inadvertently infected with the HBV virus in the maternity hospital.
That was in 1999, when the USA+UK+19 NATO countries heavily bombed and destroyed my homeland in the course of 78 days. That is why the hospitals did not work properly. And that's why there was an involuntary infection with the virus.
For the next 4 years, my wife and I went through all 9 levels of hell in the fight to save our son. We would never have succeeded on our own. But with the help of a few good people; my son was saved. Today he is a top developer.
Immediately after that, health problems started with people very close to me. From 2005 to 2023, I constantly drove all my loved ones to hospitals and spent hours, days and weeks in waiting rooms, watching all the suffering of this world.
Last month it was finally my turn. Now I'm in trouble. I don't want to write about it. #uck it!
And then look at all that suffering and pain in Ukraine, Palestine, Syria... where else!
When I look at how much of the planet is suffering; I am terribly ashamed to complain about my problems!
And what are you complaining about? Around a pile of bricks and mortar?
You should be ashamed! Head up "soldier". Don't be a c.unt!
#uck the house!
Go to another place, continue your life and enjoy it! Surround yourself with your loved ones and share every moment with them as if it were your last!
Don't disappoint me now! I have a good opinion of you! Don't be a little devil coward!
Memories are the same as faith in God.
It is what you carry inside you, in your head and in your soul.
Memories aren't #ucking bloody bricks and mortar!
....
I can't stand listen crap like that!

Being broken and homeless is no easy thing. If you're ready to die, then go for it. Otherwise tough it out.

Maybe you'll look back in a few years, being grateful you made the one choice that kept you among the living.

I am 100% sure in that.
We all have ups and downs, highs and lows...
But the stupidest reason for such a decision is the loss of a pile of bricks, mortar and concrete!
World conditions are dire.
Evil, which has long been the world's main hegemon, is now facing a major historic defeat.
However, it will not be easily surrendered.
They will fight for survival at any cost.
First they will sacrifice and eat their own children. By this I mean, first of all, ordinary, honest, hard-working citizens.
The first symptoms of this struggle are major economic crises and a decline in the standard of living in the well-off "Western" societies until yesterday.
The first victims will be ordinary working people who have no one to protect them from evil. Banks are outposts of that evil.
I don't know how many of you around the world have direct and true insight into world events.
Because an unprecedented historical blockade of the media and the truth is at work.
Unprecedented censorship of the mainstream media.
The worst historical doctrine of negation, silencing and banishment of anyone who dares to go public and say something contrary to what is being pushed as mainstream truth is at work.
I have a different situation.
My country is not great, a lot of things don't work as they should.
But there is one bright thing that still happens here; and that is absolute freedom of the media.
We in Serbia have a free choice of following all world media. We don't have any censorship. So I can always listen to information from all sides.
Here, we watch live footage of what is totally censored and banned in many "western" countries, day after day. We have a chance to see both sides of the coin.
What our friend Sean is going through now... I fear that is the reality and the future of many.
But that's why I'm raising my voice here, not to bring up political topics that are not appropriate for this forum and thereby anger our dear friend Carl... but to stop Sean from doing crazy things as soon as possible!
Because this is all just a short and fleeting thing. The light at the end of the tunnel is slowly coming into view.
Sean (and others who will be affected by this) don't easily opt for such a stupid and unnecessary move!
After the rain, the sun will shine again.
One house, apartment, car, job, bank account, property... all that is not worth even 1/1000 of your life!
People lose everything in war. So what?
Everything that was destroyed; it can be built again.
All that is lost; it can be earned again.
Are we all going to commit suicide just because we don't have the material things we once had??!
There is no more stupid and unjustified reason for such a move!
In my life, I had everything and lost everything, then again had everything and lost everything again. And so over the last 35 years.
So what? Here I am today, I still love metal detectors, I still play with them, I'm still like a little kid when I get my hands on a model I didn't have.
This is a stupid story to even think of it.
Sean, go to a pub, order a pint of Guinness, light a cigar, meet some interesting people and have a good time. #uck material things!
People live happily on much less than that.
I don't want to come off as some overly smart philosopher here!
I don't mean to sound too clever.
But I have survived worse situations than this.
I have seen the deepest bottoms but also the highest peaks.
Neither lasts long and means essentially nothing.

I don't know how comforting it will be if I tell you that many people in the Balkans have realized that they have been deceived by the pyramid scheme Battle, who advertised a power bank for mobile phones, the minimum payment was 600 dollars and the highest you want to pay, many in Serbia took loans from banks in order to get into the fraud game, the company pretended to have 7 innovative patents, of course, a cover for fraud, they filmed clips in China supposedly making portable chargers advertising clean energy, they had collections in Serbia and Bulgaria, of course this would be organized again by naive intermediaries in Serbia, the exact number of people who lost 10,000 dollars, some probably even 100,000, is not known, in Bulgaria, some 30,000 people were allegedly damaged, the pyramid scam broke before a week, now many do not know where to return their loans to the banks, many will probably lose their homes too! So you're not the only one!

[dbanner]

I recall Coinhawk schematic. If you can survive that, you can survive anything.

I wonder what would Trump do? Fight, fight, fight!

[dbanner]

We in the Caribbean have survived many such attempts of tyranny. From Capitalism to slavery.
Nevertheless we persist.

[dbanner]

I agree, I'm not very good at following up promises and I accept your comments 100%.

I MUST make a better effort.

BUT on the Coinhawk front, as I've said it was NEVER intended as a working project, just the basis for people to use to build a better machine. What I wanted it to be was a build this and see "IF" it works. I wanted people to go from that point to a fully working design. As it turned out there were errors I had not spotted (that was VERY bad of me) I never intentionally posted a "pup" I would never waste the time of my good friends on this forum.

I will TRY, to one day I will build this machine, sort out the problems and post the whole thing as a working project. I won't promise anything, as it appears I'm not good at following them up, so it MAY happen, it may not, but at least I will TRY.

So much other things to do, you wouldn't believe and I only get 1.5 days a week back at home, and then I have accounts, cleaning, any other servicing work on my old car, look after the wife and baby (the wife looks after the baby all week and she works too) work on the house, answer business correspondence, package stuff AND repair metal detectors...Told you..TOO much...

[dbanner]

Your words, not mine.

[dbanner]

You fool, your words inspired us.

Had some of those problems divorcing the first wife but it all gets better latter. Just lifes experience but when the good times return you will appreciate them even more. Hang it there buddy

Some practical advice:
Try and move much of your 'less essential' belongings into storage [ rent a garage from your local Council, or privately, for example ] , then if the worst happens, you will have less hassle vacating the property.
If you end up getting a reprieve, or getting more time, you can always move it back home, take the opportunity to 'de-clutter', too.
