    Default Get Verbally Abused... Then Become a Millionaire

    A great story unfolding now...

    Will Karen Huff Klein become the next millionaire?

    Cliff notes...

    1) Elderly woman gets verbally abused by a bunch of repugnant kids.
    2) Incident is recorded and goes viral.
    3) Someone volunteers to create a vacation fund for Karen as obviously, she could use one after this incident.(Initial goal was $5K)
    4) Virality escalates
    5) Story starts to pick up -- fund now exceeds $220K.

    At the end of thirty days, it wouldn't shock me to see her become a millionaire.

    A great story of how love and compassion can trump evil.

    For the donation page, and the video footage, hit.

    EDIT: For some reason I'm unable to post the link ... trying to figure out now.

    When I was in 7th grade, a bunch of kids (and their parents) made our bus driver, a Vietnamese immigrant, cry and quit his job on the fourth day of school. The kids started making fun of him and he didn't seem to care, but he had a little scuffle with some of their ghetto-ass parents, who then cussed him out and told him to go back to whatever ching-chong country he was from. After the incident, he started driving erratically (he could have killed us and probably considered it) and the kids kept yelling at him, calling him a chink and telling him that he was a stupid hoe, or something. I was getting pissed off cuz I wanted to sleep. We arrived late and the driver told the principal that he couldn't do it anymore and said that he was quitting. In the afternoon, we got a new driver: an angry black lady who told us to sit the fuck down and shut the fuck up.

    Moral of the story: kids are ruthless, but not for any reason besides thinking that it's fun. Problem is, adults can't kick the shit out of them because they are still kids.

    $245k with 30 days to go! I can't wait to hear more about how this experience will impact her life. I hope she can retire in comfort for the rest of her days without having to worry about abuse from asshole kids.

    And this is because this was caught on tape. Every single day school kids and even adults are bullied.

    I hope she can go on a vacation or better: retire.

    This is what is wrong with the world today; no compassion, no understanding, no vicariousness what so ever, no nada. I should also add that these are Fastlane traits as well that will help you in your business.

    Are you saying that having no compassion is a Fastlane trait or that HAVING compassion is a Fastlane trait? I'm confused.

    Sorry about the syntax.

    Breakdown:

    1. Without compassion how the hell are you supposed to provide excellent customer service?

    2. Without understanding how the hell are you supposed to know what people/consumers want or are experiencing?

    3. Without vicariousness how in the hell are you supposed do both above?

    Okay, that is what I assumed you meant, but I was just making sure. I agree entirely.

    Over $500K, looks like Karen will not only be enjoying a vacation, but a comfy retirement.

    She does not need to be in that position. I hope the school put stricter bus policies in place. I also hope she enjoys a nice retirement in South Beach.

    If she's a bus monitor, doesn't she have the power to write kids up? Like, detentions, suspensions and shit? Unless she was actually physically scared, and if she was, she should have a gun. In my area, police officers ride the bus with the kids. You know, the kinds with guns, badges and blue uniforms.
