Scammers, Cash For Gold - Holiday Robbery, Did I Tell You About The Time I Went To A "Pawn" Shop, Did I? #Jamaican #Dilemmas

I'm turning 90 this year, I have old money, no children, no grandchildren, no family.

I know it sort of sounds weird, me robbing the older person.

Taking what they didn't give, or perhaps left for me to do.

I know it sort of sounds weird, me robbing the older person.

Now,

I don't have a mother.

I don't have a father.

I don't have a child, and I don't have any person who could wipe my butt.

I know it sort of sounds weird, me robbing the older person.

Celebrating my success from the life that they built.

Hoping that I could become something in the near future.

I know it sort of sounds weird, me - of all people, robbing the older person.
