The Day I Put $50,000 in a Shoe Box and Handed It to a Stranger I never thought I was the kind of person to fall for a scam.
How I Fell for an Amazon Scam Call and Handed Over $50,000

Out of curiosity - I read an article by her where she told the story of a married woman who retired at 38. He retired at 41. Somehow the couple bought a house in Lake Tahoe when she was 30. She was a political consultant and her husband was a political pollster. But I’d be willing to bet that one or both of them is a fail son or daughter.
She’s trying to build her brand as an author on “retiring early”.
Handing over a year’s salary to a stranger is probably not going to help with retiring early.
The stranger should be the one writing articles about how they retired early, using only their wits, some gumption, and the contents of a few shoeboxes.
Yes, I want to read their tips.
If she only has $80k in combined checking and savings and was able to retire at 38, then $50,000 must mean absolutely nothing to her lol. Probably a landlord or heiress to some family fortune. Same with the husband.
he’s saying she wrote an article about people who “retired” at that age but I mean she probably still got money tho
