PhoenixNEW, I am saddenned to hear that you are sufferring with the flu.
I hope that you get well soon.

.... I hope that you use the money for good. It sounds like your heart is pushing you in that direction.

I am happy to hear that you feel some remorse for taking the money. However, I am glad to hear that you hope to make some good come from it.

Honestly, I think the decision to turn it in would be tough for any of us, including me. Especially when it looks like there may be no trace back to you & Omar.

However, if you're in a poor neighborhood, and suddenly you're buying things you neighbors know that you cannot afford, and the car becomes discovered by the wrong people, your very life could be in danger.

If you continue on this route, I would suggest4 a split with Omar, then leave town permanently. Start a new life for yourself far, far away from your current residence.

I hope the decision to keep the money becomes worth the risk you are taking.

That's a fair point, and I agree that those are evil things.

Did you even read what I wrote? It may be the root of SOME evil or maybe even MOST evil... but all? ALL? That's what I'm sayin no to....
Okay. I got your point.

Although I bet I can trace some of that bad behavior back to a point where money was the love of their life at one point.

Can't you just accept that money is not the root of ALL evil? Some people are just messed up and money has nothing to do with it.

That's pretty broad. I have to disagree.

Hitler was bad.
Pol Pot was bad.
Mao Tse Tung was bad.
Edi Amin was bad.

Unfortunately, the list is rather long.

Omar is not a problem.. I will say that money came from my wealthy uncle and to Omar.. I will pay him when he joins me in partnership in business. I wish nobody(myfriends) read my comments.. I will be okay..

If you continue on this route, I would suggest4 a split with Omar, then leave town permanently. Start a new life for yourself far, far away from your current residence.

Omar and I can become partners in business and Employment will bring happiness to many people and they will just forget about my instant success. I will just say i won lottery ticket or something,..if somebody come to ask about it..

I think you're thinking of Idi Amin, Lan. Edi was his wife.

Thankyou to all TSG members for your time
