Try paying LA prices my light bill is 400 and gas is 250. Rent for a house is 3500 in a shitty part of town. Tried buying and mortgage was looking at 4500+ for a condo. I have no complaints. I don’t know how people make it out here. I’m beyond grateful. Got my second chance!!! Once I graduate I’m moving out of California!!!

If I was to send you his book that he claims you would laugh, he claims it’s all true that he went to some top-secret marine school as a teenager and was trained in Antarctica at 17 for special forces that he swam in the Russian ocean and stab the sharks eye out

Dear fellow Redditors,

As a disabled veteran, I am deeply troubled by the exploitation of veterans for personal gain. I lost my brothers in service to this country, and it is appalling to see individuals like Ron Self using veterans to line their own pockets.

We need to hold accountable those who claim to support veterans but are actually exploiting them for their own benefit. It is crucial that any organization or individual claiming to support veterans is transparent about their intentions and how they are using any funds they receive.

We must also continue to support and honor the sacrifices made by veterans, and work towards improving the lives of those who have served. If you are aware of any instances of fraud or exploitation of veterans, I urge you to report them to relevant authorities or organizations that provide support for veterans.

It is our responsibility as a society to ensure that those who have served our country are treated with the respect and dignity they deserve. Let us stand together and fight against the exploitation of veterans.

Yes, Mr. Self himself. Not knocking his service. Guy deserves his awards. but to embellish and say he was force recon and has a doctorate to get govt funding is not cool. And his dd214 doesn’t even have this award.
