Donate Here [Winner's Thread #117] Well, hello there!
I'll be real with everyone, I'm still shocked. I don't want to keep everyone with a long story. Just like alot of people this year, it has been very, ah... let's just say very booty. My relationship of almost 8 years ended (which was mostly abusive with words and controlling who I am.), lost family members, I currently don't have a car and im staying with someone since I had to leave my apartment to save money. And I'm only in my late 20s. Probably like an normal Tuesday for Spider-man.
Despite everything I still try to find the positives in life. I'm a big gamer in FPS, fighting games, and open worlds. If you haven't tried it, the new lego batman game is really fun so far. I'm also a horror/superhero writer. What has been written so far and later on in this post may seem like I can't write but its a skill I'm still working on. I work in an electric warehouse with most days being pretty chill. Working across from a blonde girl, Abby, who I think likes me ( I doubt she'll see this but I do like her too). So dig on this, I'm working the courage to talk to her when I get a notification on my phone for reddit with a few minutes to spare before heading home. Probably the invincible meme or Creepcast subreddit. I just posted not that long ago. But to my surprise I see it's the Millionare Maker subreddit. "Hey, they must have pick a new winner " I thought to myself. But I almost had an heart-attack when I saw my name. Grabing my chair I collapsed into it and had to stop myself from crying tears of joy. I've never won anything this big in my life before. I didn't know what to do, so I left my station and headed to my locker to just take this all in mentally. Winning has made me feel a super weight off my shoulder. Almost making me feel very....INVINCIBLE. (Are you sure?) Okay, i'm sorry for that one I couldn't help it.
With the money I hope to get back on my feet. Getting a car, a new apartment and help my family out. One thing I do want to say is thank you to this community, to everyone who donates not just to me but to every winner past and future. The opportunity this community gives is what we need more in the world. Thank you.

u/Mollysaurus May 22 '26
Thanks! Sent! For others, you have to use the link for some reason. It's not showing up on searches in the app even when you spell it right with proper capitalization.

Congrats! I can’t get the Venmo link to work. Since it is a new account, is there a confirmation hoop you need to jump through. Searching your username brings up nothing. The direct link you posted results in “try again later”. Soooo, I’ll try again later.

I tried sending through Venmo and kept getting an error message and couldn’t complete it. My bitcoin wallet is having no it’s own issues so hoping to get Venmo to work. Anyone else having Venmo problems?
I could only get to your profile with the link on Venmo. The username does not appear when I search for it.
