When BOS first closed, one of the first emails I received was from BigBet1234, which was understandable – Not only did he have a good size balance there, but he clearly opened an account there based on the guarantee.

So when I made my latest post regarding the guarantee payments, I expected to get another email from BB. What I did not expect is what that email was going to say.

BB has asked us to donate his ENTIRE amount to a specific charity. I will let him decided whether or not he wants the name of the charity posted, but it is a very deserving organization.

As I told BB, this is one of the most generous acts I have ever personally witnessed.

Thanks
Rick

Maybe start a charity called "Build a home for old moderators" -- Just kidding. :lolBIG:

I am glad to see see Bigbet make this gesture and hope the karma comes back his way in the form some sort of kindness down the line. I am sure it will..


I am also extremely proud of both Marty and Rick for doing the right thing here.


Thanks, wil..

Wow! I just saw that movie over the weekend at my parents' for Easter. I hadn't seen this movie before, and it was a good one.

Great classy move, BigBet1234! The charity definitely will appreciate your act!

It only came across my mind once in the last week or so... but I have been in/out/in/out so I didn't get to slap you around, ha.

I could have you "pay it forward" to someone else, LOL! But dunno who/how/when you can do that so never mind that.

Just do what you need to do by end of week. No problem.

It would be cool if at the Bash the mods start up some charity drive and we try to do something good from a bunch of us.
