Today, my wife handed over most of our son's college fund, in cash, to an investment scammer going by the name "Herp A. Derpson". FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I caught my mother attempting to write a $1400 cheque. To whom? The proprietor of a "Christian charity fund" with whom she had been having Internet conversations. The proprietor's name, and that on the cheque, was "Herp McDerpington". FML
Today, I learned that my dad invested my entire college fund into some shady internet stock, despite my dire warnings about being careful. He told me not to worry as he'd done some research, and he guaranteed everything would be fine. Two hours later that same stock dropped almost 75%. FML
Today, my twit of a husband admitted to falling for an internet scam involving a dead foreign politician, the promise of a share in millions of dollars currently stuck in a bank, and him having wired a large amount of our money to "bribe an official". FML
Today, my husband had to admit that he lost 5000$ on a cryptocurrency scam that some asshole Twitch streamer convinced him to invest in via Twitter. FML
Today, my husband and I have been fighting because I gave our son his college fund, even though he got a full-ride scholarship. My husband didn't think it was necessary and wanted to use it for other things. FML
Today, I learned that my daughter pocketed the money I'd paid so she could go to college. FML
Today, my husband fell for an online scam leaving us 1450.00 in the negative. We get paid tomorrow and most of our money is going to cover that debt. FML
Today, I found out that the money my husband and I gave to my son for university courses, has instead been spent on pole dancing lessons. FML
Today, I found out my wife named our son after her ex-lover. FML
Today, I found out my mom took around $2,500 from my savings account to pay off my sister's college tuition. She recently flunked out of her studies and won't be returning to college anyway. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

No offense, but your wife is a dumbass. And wasn't there another FML where the mom was about to send 1400 dollars to a church, and the pastor was Herp McDerpington. Unlike that story, it's too late, I am sorry OP

I'm really hoping this is a troll.... because if not, you really need to find a new wife...

Will you have enough for the divorce?
rileyrae0000 23
Why would he divorce his wife for being gullible??? I don't understand why people jump to a separation every time there's some sort of conflict between a couple..

23 THE WIFE JUST THREW AWAY A KIDS COLLEGE FUND THATS A LOT OF ******* MONEY
Cathrin 26
In this case, this kind of stupidity is dangerous to the welfare of the family, so a divorce would be understandable.

Tbh, in this case, I think it was a joke

To 19... If she willingly gave money to someone with a suspicious name like that and didn't think twice what's the point?

I would divorce someone like that in a heartbeat.

This should be more along the lines of **** your son's life.
arano 29
Obviously she shouldn't have that kind of access to your finances.

I laughed so ****** hard at this. My sympathies dude
MRSwick2525 23
I doubt his poor son is laughing.

Apparently she should have went to college...

They don't teach common sense in college.

Your mom goes to college.
fabcade 14
leave her.
MRSwick2525 23
Why? Because she's not the sharpest tool in the shed? Yeah, she messed up and was pretty gullible to do what she did, however that doesn't mean that OP should leave her. Maybe he should make that decision, not you.

It sounds a lot more serious to me than something that can be excused with "she's just not the sharpest tool in the shed". Now her son might not be able to go to college at all which could very well drastically change the course of his life in a very unwanted way.
MRSwick2525 23
So he should leave her for that?? I completely understand what you are saying about the son, however there are Financial Aid, Grants, Loans, and Scholarships that he can easily apply for.

Not when you're above a certain income.
worldclassrager 41
He fell for it? With a name like that you have to be kidding
MRSwick2525 23
The last time I checked, Wife means a Woman!!! Just sayin!!!!!

Misread the FML...again...not just going to say I missed the 's' or I had an autocorrect...

With respect, while your talking of stupidity, SHE fell for it, not he.

Fyl for picking a stupid bitch to marry
ilovesoccer1610 31
Just because his wife is stupid doesn't make her a bitch
2nd 20
Giving away a college fund does.
trey600rr 22
more like YDI for marrying her in the first place! don't say you didn't know she had a propensity to be stupid and gullible.
