"A medical procedure to get rid of my mold costs $200,000. I told myself and my friends I can pay for the whole thing myself, but they didn't listen, and decided to pity me instead, and gave me money to try and prove that I can't do it myself. I've got a good job, and lots of money saved up, but they just decided to humiliate me instead, being so generous helping out those who don't need help. I can pay for the procedure myself. After I win this excuse of a competition, I'm taking my money."
