I'm not a doctor, but there are things like compulsive shopping behavior that are well known in the medical literature, and the abnormal level of trust your dad put in complete strangers resembles such behaviors. At least you or your sister could seek professional counseling about the subject and let an expert judge whether there are symptoms of pathological behavior. | |

If there was such a path to riches, why would the people involved have to look for strangers to share the money with instead of keeping it all for themselves? The only people making money off these things are the scammers. | |
Jul 30, 2016 at 5:01 | comment | added | Ivana | i appreciate your words.It sounded iffy to begin with I just needed to hear it for others to know for sure. Its a hard situation when all he things about is making money/ easy money. Anything that sounds good he’s sold. Me and my sisters tell him time after time they never work and he continues to try. To people contacting him on Facebook or the business money making programs he wants to try them all. Thank you for commenting back to me! | |
