BBL.... I need to go find a well to fall into..




Wow.. a mobile business is the pinnacle of success since when? Give the girl her money so she can use it as she wants. Hopefully she will go buy some land in the middle of nowhere and have a minifarm.. or buy a defunct nuke silo and make it a house..

For God's sake, this money was donated over 2 decades ago. The poor girl hasn't had it in her hands 5 mins and you want her to give it back. How far would 800,000 pounds go these days. I've never heard anything as pitiful as this thread. So in the history of people donating money all over the world to individuals and countries, if they have a roof over their heads and a small business, they should hand it all back in say 25 yrs. Grow up, get over it and think before you speak.
There is a name im thinking that discribes you....... starts with t and ends in t

I'm unsure why she should give the money back. It wasn't a loan and it wasn't given with the intent to get any back.

Money was given out of compassion and it looks like so far she has been very responsible with what she has. She bought a home with some of it.

I think she is doing great from the sounds of it and it's not like she is trying to exploit anyone.

She should keep the money.

By two bits.


I am from the Midland/Odessa area (i live about 30 mins away). I don't know her personally, but we have quite a few mutual friends. She Jessica McClure is a complete rock star.

I have lost friends in my youth to tragedy. One friend in particular died saving another friends life when we were in high school. I had always hoped he would take the gift he was given and make good on it. He died last month from health problems arising from a life of drug abuse and venereal disease.

Jessica McClure is something rare: someone from this very rough part of the world that was able to take the negative in life, and create positive from it.

I won't say she "deserves" that money, because that is just ludicrous. Great wealth is as much a curse as it is a blessing (often, moreso). But I can say that if anyone will take that money and use it in a way that would emulate its intended use, it would be her.

someone pushed her in that well, probably her husband,

howabout you push me in a well than you run, and we can split the proceeds 60/40


Her husband pushed her down a well when she was 18 months old? Good for you. How perceptive.

She has been diagnosed with rhumatoid arthritis. If you don't know what that is, look it up. She is not going to have an easy life. As for the money, why should she even try to give it back? It was freely given. The parents did the proper thing by placing it in trust at the time.


i never said she was married when this happened dont take my words out of context oh perceptive one


You're kidding me, right? You're words are there for all to see, repeated above. You said, "Someone pushed her in that well, probably her husband." And your defense is to say she wasn't married at the time? How in Heaven's Name did you come up with that fantasy? To call your words speculative is too generous. If you have any evidence, I'm sure we're all sitting at the edges of our seats just waiting for it.
