Good evening my fellow GME investors both big and small 👋🩵 I would like to share a story with you. I hope it inspires you, to remember your strength and why you Diamondhand when the fud is thickest.

For many years I lived happily with my family, things were perfect I can say that honestly. It was me, my brother, our mother, and grandmother. We had game nights every weekend and always enjoyed each others company. Sadly two years or so before the sneeze in January, I lost my bother. A sudden heart attack no one saw coming. I had to tell my mother and grandmother what had happened. I'll never forget my mother crying asking what she should do, I didn't have an answer and it killed me. About 6 months later my grandmother passed. My mother had now had to bury her mother and one of her sons. Our family had been cut in half, The loss was beyond imagination for us both.

Thankfully my mother fell in love with a wonderful man and moved a state over and had time to heal and get away from the places that held so many painful memories. While I went to stay with an aunt a city over from our old home. Unfortunately for me the loss of both so quickly was too much. Consumed with my grief I turned inwards and shut down completely. I gained 40 pounds, left my job, stopped taking care of myself, stopped paying bills, cut off all connections, developed anxiety and depression (diagnosed) and just allowed it to eat me alive. I'm ashamed to admit it but I considered suicide, the thought of my mother having to bury the last of her family was too much to bear to act on it.

Months passed and a news story caught my attention, gamestop shares jumping through the roof. A sub on reddit being pointed at, Like many I was curious. My brother had tried to get to to join reddit for years. Ironic that I joined only after his passing but I took it as a sign. Maybe he was pointing me to something. I know in my heart he would have been an ape here. It still pains me that he never got to see this story unfold live, he would have gotten such a kick out of it. Many here understand the pain of losing family and fellow apes but I digress. With nothing left to loose and my life savings in a envelop under my bed I put it all in my broker (at the time, 100% pure DRS book now! Fuck the brokers and the banks!) On January 28th and bought February 1st for 225$ a share as the price was in free fall. I watched in horror as the price fell, and fell, and fell some more. Thankfully I was able to get most of my shares near the bottom at around 60$. I was angry and confused about the drop but something clicked inside me, I had to understand why it dropped so hard. It became an obsession for knowledge.

Over the next two years I, like most of you, watched and researched. The chaos of the markets, the wild price swings, the lies of the media, the outstanding DD. Saw mod drama, the take over of the OG sub, the migration from one sub to the next. I'm proud to say I saw it all live, My smooth brain getting more wrinkled with each day as apes dug deeper into understanding the truth of the markets. Unfortunately reality eventually came back to me. While my obsession with the one true stonk was a beacon of hope for me I still hadn't faced the reality my grief and moving forward with picking up my life and fixing it. Eventually I was served with a lawsuit over debt collectors and panic set in. I'd have to sell my stock and everything I'd worked towards in the last 2 years would be undone, or so I thought..

My aunt, my mother, and my now wife had seen me change with my research into GME. They saw the passion I had and the stocks true potential. All became shareholders after listening to my rantings of DD. They trusted me, just like I trusted apes here. Slowly but surely I started to deal with reality. Started to diet and eat healthier, as of writing this I'm down 43 pounds and am lighter then I was in high-school. I got a legal team together to negotiate the debt. And I'm actively looking for and applying for work. Recently the negotiations reached a settlement, I didn't want to sell my precious GME but figured it could have been worse and I'd still have about half of my shares (would still be an X,XXX holder thankfully!). I have always been blessed with wonderful family, and in my time of greatest need they came to help. My aunt offered to "buy" the shares I would have needed to sell to cover the settlement and my mother and wife helped with the legal team costs. Thanks to them I will not have to sell a single share! 🥲

I'm honestly speechless 🙊, they did this because they have faith in me. And my faith is with all of you. While I still have a long ways to go to get my life back on track, I'm moving forward each day. I would not be here without the blessings of my family, and without each and every one of you reading this now. I hold, and will continue to hold until moass changes the world. I believe in RC, in DFV, in GME, and In Moass. And now that the hardest parts of my life are behind me, I will keep moving forward. To honor my family, to honor the apes who didn't live long enough to see moass, and to honor each and every ape who holds today.

Can't stop, won't stop.
