Crystal sent a message to Mark Zuckerberg Co-Founder, Chairman, and CEO, Facebook – email address that said:
Good afternoon! My name is Crystal and I'm about 99.9% sure that this is not going to have the outcome i'd like, but at this point I have nothing to lose. I am financially in a bind and have given a go at almost every legal pursuit to try and acquire additional funds to get me out of my situation. Is there any reason on earth that you should help me? Of course not! I'm in my situation due to my bad decisions. I'm a mother of 3, who have spoiled me for mother's day today. But I have failed them. I work a State job and get paid once a month, the very last day of the month. By the 5th of the following month (so in about six days after being paid...I'm broke). I get by by selling odds and ends on Craigslist or ebay but I never have emergency money or "you got straight A's this quarter here's a gift type of money. I'd love to pay off the 3 personal loan companies which have helped me stay aflot as well. I have never smoked(not even a cigarette), I've had 2 beers my entire life (I'm 36) and a sip of wine...that burnt my throat. I've never done anything criminal, I don't even use profanity. I've been married for 15 years(this year) and have 3 amazing kids. I just wish that I would have finished College so that I wouldn't be in the screwed up position, I put myself in years ago. Just looking for a bit of relief to get myself in the position to make my children proud of me. $1000.00 would be a tremendous help. I admire your success, and thank whomever took the time to read my message. Whether I get a response or not, your time is much appreciated.
