Get a job! byronwilkinson
I like you both a lot and have been following your posts for a while now but I just don’t really get how this helps people with mental health issues like myself ? ... sesujdog I’ve always liked what you do. But this is ridiculous. Especially the reason why you can’t get money on your own highkickreflex
And, what people find offensive is not that the couple wants to travel to Africa, is the fact of the way they are looking for the budget they want to spend. Because they want that budget from people's donations.

Some of the couple's reasons to do this are the following:
"Some of you have told us to get a job, like everyone does and to stop asking for money. But when you get the impact that we have on others' life, having a job is not an option.
"We could be model and earn some money fast, but we don't want to earn money doing consumerism publicity"
The controversy surrounding Cat and Elena (@another_beautiful_day_official), the couple asking for donations to fund their trip to Africa, has deepened following comments they made about their finances.
