well, i had a thread a few months ago talking about how working with family sucks. well....it turns out that there's SOMETHING totally shady going on with my brother. i only know like 10% of the story....basically, the SEC and the FBI are investigating him and his fund.
Well....it turns out he lost a bunch of money AND THEN he was writing bogus statements. so these people had $0 in the fund and he'd send them a statement saying that they still had $1,000,000 in there. And it turns out that he only had around $1 million in the fund and if you add up everyones money in the statements---there should be at least $10 million.

i have no idea what the f*(k he was thinking. he bought himself a million dollar lot. told cynthia to buy this $500,000 lot. and since cynthia has crappy credit (which is his fault) it couldnt be under her name so he was like "i'll put it under mine". and when we sold out townhome we got like $130,000 and cynthia was like "just put it in the fund".
*******At least read this**** (since i know people want the "short" story)
For the past month he was telling me and cynthia that he cant pay us because its been going to lawyers and stuff.....WELL---he's still giving paychecks to those two girls that work there and this guy who basically screwed him at UBS. AND he gave those two girls RAISES.
So yesterday he tells cynthia that he's going to turn himself in at the police station (i guess) and he wants to keep the fund open and he wants CASEY'S name on it!!!! and cynthia was like "im not sure casey would want to do that cuz you've screwed him over" (cuz he had promised casey a raise and a bonus...he didnt get anything and he hasnt been paid in a month either). Well...cynthia calls him out on ALL his lies...and you know what he does? he says "f**k you" and hangs up on her.
during their conversation he tells cynthia that he doesnt think i deserve a bonus or a raise and that i shouldnt get a paycheck anymore. and cynthia was like "cathy worked for you for FREE for a long time and she was only making $8/hr till july".
and cynthia is the one that deals with the biggest client he has and after he did that....cynthia decided that she quits.
i dont know what to do.
we dont have anything. i think we might have $2,000 in our savings and checking accounts total. im stressing like crazy. our rent is due on the first and thats $1850/month. and then the car is $460. our basic bills for the whole household is $4,000/month.
so cynthia decided to start selling on Ebay. she's read a bunch of success stories. so we're hoping that it works out. my mom is 56 yrs old and offered to start working again....she cleaned houses. we told her no. we asked our uncle for some money....and he insinuated that he gave it all to my bro
anyway, i just wanted to vent. you guys know how im feeling. just wish us luck. and check out ebay. lol.
to get her ebay name, contact me
i'll hopefully be on more. i've just had a lot of homework lately
and i only have two classes!
