Years ago I worked as a co-op at IBM, and my manager at the time became a close friend. We spent a good amount of time
together. He talked me into giving him $30K to go into a real-estate investment with him (I was young and naive).

He turned out to be a total charlatan and scammer, and he took the $30K and ran.

It was most of the money I had saved while working during college.

If I ever see him again, I'll be tempted to put a bullet in his head.

36,000 when Aces Gold went bellyup after the Pats beat St. Louis in the Super Bowl. Some posters at that time claimed on this site they lost more than 100,000. My brother had 68,000 in Aces Gold when this happened,

at least back in the day some shops like Cascade and Royal were offering bailouts of Aces. Thats how I recovered my money there.
