These old ladies only fall for much younger, much better looking wealthy men who are way out of their league. What are they thinking?!?

It's the same story repeatedly.

It infuriates me that this woman is now dependent on her son. What about HIS financial future? HIS retirement, university costs for his children.... The list could go on. There was NO reason why she couldn't have been financially secure for the rest of her life and being "trusting" is no excuse. She proved herself to be a poor steward of the money she was fortunate enough to have. Is sound financial management a thing of the past?

The heading says she "lost" over 800k, but in reality she gave away 800k. So sad. I am surprised at how much money some of these widows have, and how they can be so easily charmed by a handsome face. It is mind-boggling.

If they ask for money, they’re not your honey. Wise words

It's hard to feel sorry for someone who WILLINGLY gives away everything they have to someone they have never met. She is a victim of her own lack of common sense.

LOL I’m so sorry for her but it’s just hilarious. At some point like maybe the $100,000 mark you realize you can’t see the person and this “relationship” is only about the money? How can you be so dumb and keep sending 🤦‍♀️

I can't believe these silly women who give all their money away to total strangers!!! They are ridiculous.

I'm sorry for this lady and others in this situation, but I don't get how this happens over and over. I'm a young cute guy, any old ladies want a fun time, I'm real, and could use the $800,000. 😜

Listen to your friends and family on issues like this. They are the best sounding boards. This should not have happened.

For $100k I would have sent her sappy romantic poems, daily texts proclaiming my love, and even showed up for an occasional lunch/dinner and booty call. I would have saved her $700k. What a bargain!
