Insurance company denied me, so I got everyone I know to cancel and literally bankrupt them.

0:07.0

I have a story that started before the COVID pandemic and just concluded a while back.

0:13.0

English is my third language, so forgive any errors I may make and my use of words.

0:18.0

I'm a typical, simple guy who just liked relaxing and was born with the proverbial

0:22.8

silver spoon in my mouth. I'm the black sheep of my family and a middle child to boot, double whammy,

0:29.6

but at least I have little brains and some luck, which I kind of use on a day-to-day basis.

I'm a simple low-maintenance fellow. My businesses are booming since the coastal area we live in

1:29.1

attracts a lot of tourists, local and international. And of course some locals who wish to mingle

1:34.7

with the tourists to get green cards, pen pals, spouses and such. Typical coastal city, I guess.

1:41.4

So, on to the incident. As a proprietor of my business, I have most, if not all of my

1:47.3

staff on salary, since it's the best way for them to gain benefits, and it's easier for me as a

business owner tax-wise. Tipping is more of a gift, typically, since we don't have a tipping
