The 2 people that I used to owe money to and will never pay made the mistake you all are making. This is not how the world works. Take a psychology class and read "how to win friends and influence people".

If the first person you cheated would have made it public, there never would have been a second.

my rep on here is not a huge concern to me and I am not trying to downplay the seriousness of Lindgren's debts. I certainly never "cheated anyone" and I have far more owing me money than the 2 that I "owe". They would have gotten double from me if not for making our business public. If I weren't a stand up guy I would have had to leave the state but people that I deal with know there is more to the story then what these 2 guys say.

Back to this thread I really hope it works out for you guys and I truly was just taking another angle on this as I thought it may be helpful to have 1 voice going against the grain. Erick's twitter hasn't slowed down as he played LAPC I noticed... maybe he is actually financially fine as I've heard mentioned and really just wont pay. GL all

If you were a stand up guy, you would have paid everyone back instead of looking for excuses to not do so. If you were a stand up guy, you would apologize for making them air the debts publicly to get you to pay them back. But, you are NOT.

Disagree with decisions not to pay back the guy he owes when he can but I don't think his points should be completely ignored as lots of people consider principle > than $, especially if they're wealthy.

Regardless, what captured my interest most is the book he mentioned bc of personal relevance. My grandfather who is a very successful, well respected & extremely honest businessman that started from nothing recommended it to me a few years ago as the most important book he's ever read in his life. I immaturely didn't follow up but seeing this mentioned reminded it to me & I'm going to.

2+2's standard operating procedure for going after scummy people is very effective & worthwhile, especially in this day & age of the internet, but there are bound to be instances where it backfires bc someone wants to be a jerk to make a point. I'll also say that being a jerk to make a point can backfire really ***** hard.

Edog's situation is an extraordinarily extreme case & obv a lot of people could have been saved if this **** was put out in the open earlier. Thankfully it is, otherwise it'd continue. Having said that, alot of the people who didn't out Edog did so for selfish reasons to keep the fish in action & took a calculated risk that's probably going to backfire.

Nice to see an objective reader/poster. If you buy/download the CD set of ” how to win friends and influence people” you will never get enough. Actually truly enjoyable stuff.and if you really try the stuff it always works. Like magic.

bump for EDOG borrowing $2m from FTP in early April 2011 (before BF), receiving $4m ON ACCIDENT (with $2m being a direct wire to his bank account), and not repaying any of it.

Edog not only receives 2 million loan in which he would have been wrapped about but gets another 2 million cherry on top edog would have been doing hand stance lol.
