So we're talking about being conned and
You were sharing with us Henry that you thought
But you said that she you were beginning to tell us the story
So we're on the edge of our seats waiting about six weeks after we were married
She received checks for a half a million dollars, which I deposited an account
The next day I went out and bought a Porsche and a Maserati. She got it. She okay. Let me hear this rate
You got the half million dollars
We got checks. You got checks
Mm-hmm went out the next day bought a Porsche or a Maserati and
$350 home on the Hudson thousand dollar home. Okay, three hundred and fifty thousand dollar home. Okay
You know blew the half a million the first day
You did? Yeah
Okay, and so then what happened?
The checks bounced in one week
Oh
Which brings us back again to the point of what what were you saying? There's no free lunch
There are no free rides. If you give something you if you're giving something in that kind of attitude
You want something back or you married her for money. You got what you deserve
I'm it was a business. Don't you think you got exactly what you deserve?
No, I didn't get the cars in the house
This was more to me it was more like a business arrangement
How could you fall in love in two weeks and marry and say it's not you're the one who did it
Well, you you married for the money you got married for the money so she could get her money and then I would get money
For marrying her. Oh, okay. And so then when everything bounced, what did you do?
What did I do I asked the why they bounced she said
That's her family found out that I wasn't royalty and they put a stop on the money
Oh
Fantastic
You had to be there. Okay. Okay, so
The bottom line is that you were looking for a free lunch. You were
Absolutely, you were absolutely
Absolutely. Yeah, and Paula you weren't I
Paid for everything. Hey
I have always worked six and seven days a week
Where'd your money held one job in West Palm?
Okay for my okay and so free for for the twins you were looking or were you looking for a free ride?
No, not at all. No, it just happened. It just happened now you all were saying what you were saying that in your case
It wasn't this way at all that it's not yeah, you should stand, you know the rules
In my case, I was just taking advantage of by being a good guy
I was involved in a relationship and we began to talk about being married
So with me being kind of irresponsible with cards and stuff. I let her keep my second
cash-station card I
Noticed major withdrawals
And I began to write super checks where they bounced real high
So I just noticed that my entire bank account was depleted to nothing
So what'd you do about it? There's nothing I could do
Nothing I could do. I'm not the violent type. Well out where I would go and
Beat her up or something, but I had to just take that as a lesson
You had no legal recourse because you allowed her to have it
You let her have your card
I let her have the card, but that was in good faith that she wouldn't do what she did
She did. She cleaned me out. She cleaned you out. Yes
Yes, which makes you more cautious the next time around. Yes, I have to be
We're gonna find out when we come back

Oh, let me just ask this question because I thought this question tickled me during the break
Ask the question see what everybody else said go ahead for the twins. I wanted to know why if you were in playboy
Why couldn't you buy your own things? You must have had money you didn't have to take from the service
This is what i'm saying. I had a we had a very good career and I didn't have to
Be with david. I chose to be with him not because of the money. I gave up a very good acting career
I was right at the start of a very successful career. That was my choice. It wasn't
um
He was very good to me
Yes that I took that into consideration but I like that question because she was she said why would you why would they take his things?
Why would they do that?
You don't have any look at it as a matter of taking here is a very wealthy man who
Someone said to me once if you cannot learn to receive how can you learn to give?
up oh
No, that's very very true
That's another twist to that adage
Now let me I want to introduce you to the is it valentine's ron and wendy now in your case
Tell us what happened you were stand up you were
Involved in a restaurant business
and uh
These people just took us what they did say had three or four different sets of books showing us
Just different things of the restaurant showing how how the restaurant was doing
Set of books for selling the restaurant a set of books for the irs
And so what they okay, so the guy takes you to and says this is a wonderful restaurant business
I'm going to get you in too and he lets you you then sign over your house as what collateral or that in twenty thousand dollars
Okay to get into the business because he's going to help you in the business exactly
And what we did is we bought all the products from him
he made the dough he made the sauces and all the other stuff and
We just got to a point where we realized after about a week that these guys are taking us
And we didn't see no dough and no sauces because what they did
They put out flyers before we even got into the business and they just put thousands of flyers out
So the first two days we had all kinds of business. It's like oh, this is great
After that it just died
within three weeks within three weeks we knew that we had been duped and uh
Uh, we were struggling. I've never worked so hard to lose everything. I own. I mean we lost everything
We almost lost our house. He allowed us to continue living in the house
We paid him house payments and he did not pay the mortgage company anyhow into the business after working so hard
The man came on to me and I thought you know all night about it. I thought well, here's my go
Here's my chance. I'm going to get my house back and I don't care what it takes
I've got a good marriage. I have wonderful family
But I could not see us going without a roof over our heads
I mean I did what I needed to do and that was to dupe him
So I got him back condom my own way and that so you had sex with him
Yes, and had him then you must have really duped him because he signed the house right back over to you after that
Yes, we did. Yes, and he signed the house back over to me and the next day he gave me a call
Well, when are we going to get together and I said never you got it back buddy
You've just been conned
So then what Ron you find out not until a couple of years later how it actually happened that your wife
It had sex with the guy who tried to con you and how'd you react to that?
Well at first I thought I was the bad guy
I thought I was the one that took care of the situation and because you're walking around going I showed him
I went down there and I just told him hey you guys ripped us off and I was really mad
and you know and showing showing that I was mad and
It's just it's hard, you know, it really is
I totally believe in my wife and what she did. I felt that that's what was necessary and I love her very much for it
And nothing will ever change
