Please donate to send me to DisneyWorld

[Derekuda]

I'm 21 and have never been to DisneyWorld. So I've researched through WDW Travling and I need $1000 to make the trip. I've started the Walt Disney World Trip Foundation fund. Please donate to send me to DisneyWorld. Thank you and God Bless.

thank you for saying that, I was going to say something similar to that...But I didn't want to risk being rude about it.

[BigDaddyKyle]

Does he actually expect ppl to donate to him???

[Alan]

Well Derek, I am 52 and I have never been to WDW and I will probably never go. Seems like all the money I have goes to drugs to keep me a;live. Shoot, I need 1600 right now to get some stuff. Derek, my heart breaks for you.

[Speedway]

How rude.

[Evil Minion]

It never hurts to ask I suppose.

If this works for Derekuda I may start up a collection for my next trip to Euro Disneyland and Paris.

[devkxl]

always looking for contributions for my fund BUT I am the only one who saves and gives to it

"Are you serious? Is he serious?"

[Ortizmo2000]

[Demigod]

Hey, I wanna new PS2...someone wanna donate for that? :lol:

But seriously, some people.... :confused: :botox:

I saw this post when he originally posted it on April 20, thought about giving him some negative rep for it and didn't and was surprised that no one else responded until karliebug replied with an incredulous post.

All we can do is "Just Say No."

I confess to checking his Pay Pal account to see if anyone's taken the bait and foolishly sent him money. Thankfully not a cent has been deposited.

His brazen plea isn't any worse than another newbie in here begging in a post for someone to give him some good rep and he'll reciprocate because "I only have a couple of green squares."

How about this- I will give you .02 cents worth of my advice- GET A JOB! Save our money- that way, when you do get to go, it is that much sweeter because you know how hard you worked for it. There are no handouts in this world, I am afraid.

[Cuzco-topia]

Maybe it was just a joke?....I hope? :confused:

[Derekuda]

Oh my word....I can't believe how rude all of you are. This was originally my signiture untill one of the mods took it off and posted it in this forum. And secondly...IT'S YOUR CHOICE....it's not like i'm private messageing or flooding the boards with pleas for money. It was one simple post and if anyone felt it in their heart to donate, the option was there and most welcome and appriciated. If you don't want to donate, then don't,...its that simple.
It doesent mean you have to bash and hurt someones feelings.
I know there are alot of Disney fans with a lot of disney love and love to share love and disney experiances and i figured that there might be someone out there who wants to send me WDW while i'm still young. It's the same idea that when you send someone whom you love to disneyland for the first time. Your excited for them. So try somthing new and be excited for a micechat aqquantance.

I don't think everyone is out to bash you, just shocked that you are asking for money from strangers. I would love to go to WDW, I am 36 and have never been further west than Utah. There are a lot of things I have never done. I would also love to have been able to renew my AP this year but finances and their rising cost was too prohibitive. Part of growing up is learning that there are things worth saving for and things that may not happen. When you post a request (either an actual post or in a signature) like this you should expect to get a LOT of flack. I agree with a previous post, you will appreciate it a whole lot more by doing it entirely on your own.

I see in your profile you are a student. If you don't have time for a full time job, even a part time job will help you save. When I was in college I usually held down 2-3 jobs at a time with a full-time school schedual. I did peer tutoring on campus, it didn't require a lot of extra time, an hour or 2 (or 3) a day between classes. I also worked at the local convention center during events. I worked in a flower shop on the weekends. Heck I even did all the grocery shopping for my mom, I got to keep whatever I managed to save by clipping coupons.

I still plan on making it to WDW, Hawaii and many other places, but I am realisitic enough to know that no one is going to hand me the $$ to go. I am saving for it, $1 at a time.

Let's see if the shoe fits and belongs on your foot....

Well you never know. Someone might have the heart to. You never know untill you try and that's all I did was try. I don't believe I should be yelled and reemed at by everyone.
Remember, all it takes is a dream.

Is this really neccesary? Have you no heart man.

Maybe if you were a make-a-wish kid, we might have more sympathy- able bodied people should not be begging!
