The Mockingbird Foundation
The Mockingbird Foundation is a non-profit organization founded by Phish fans in 1996 to generate charitable proceeds from the Phish community.
And since we’re entirely volunteer – with no office, salaries, or paid staff – administrative costs are less than 2% of revenues! So far, we’ve distributed over $1,000,000 to support music education for children – hundreds of grants in all 50 states, with more on the way.

"Well, I'm officially lost. I was about to open a charcuterie in my town (the town's first) and my wife decided it was too much stress, went off her med's, cheated on me, spent thousands frivolously and destroyed my home, got placed by Jonny law in a mental health facility, petitioned her insurance company to get released early to come home and destroy my house some more and derail my business plans (she needed round the clock care and I was 100%on my own so I couldn't go to work on my store).
She then divorced me and took all my money. I live in her family's home town and outright own my commercial building and some of my home. I now don't know weather to follow through and open the store or just sell everything and go to grad school in another part of the world? Involved in this decision is my ability in my late 30s to find a woman that is not batshit crazy or has tons of baggage, including children. I don't know that the mid Atlantic produces a mindset in its residents that I find appealing....everything here is pretty corporatized and consumption driven.
So now I'm opening the floor to suggestions, although I know I need to figure this one out on my own. What would you do netters?"
so she got all your money despite cheating on you and being put in a mental facility? doesn't add up"as I said, we agreed no lawyers and the $$$. That's how it adds up. If she got a lawyer, I'd be down a house and half a commercial property so I gave her all my money instead.
"
how would her getting a lawyer equal you losing everything? she cheated. unless the laws in your state say that cheating isn't grounds for not getting anything in a divorce. most states say cheating is a big no no when legally married so she would in turn get nothing. but maybe your state has different laws."
first of all she was sick and certified by the state unfit to be responsible for her actions. Secondly, I had an opportunity to close this chapter quickly or to have a manic woman manipulate the legal system, and me, for a year. That time alone was worth what she got paid.
"
well okay then. if the solution and cost for said solution outweighed the trouble of dealing with her then good for you.
and to address your rude comment about why I care so much, isn't that the reason you started this pity party thread to begin with? to get attention and to get people caring? "
I didn't ask you why you care so much. That was WordsFromASong
