It wasn’t . He said “40k” - but when you do the currency conversion that’s 2,000 or so USD

You’re right . It isn’t. If he has his own plumbing buisness and works 12-16 hour shifts, $2,000 is money that can be earned pretty quickly

Couples from the show have provided testimonials, and although some of the situations may have been created to generate drama, it is not entirely fabricated. According to the testimonials, the couples and their circumstances are genuine. Nevertheless, there is a possibility that you possess information that I am not aware of.

That was in South African money. Converted to United States dollars, CAD or AUD, it’s $2,000-2,300.

I don’t know why they neglect to do the currency conversion on the screen sometimes, and yet sometimes they don’t.

A good possibility is that they do the conversion on screen when it will make the plot more sensational. But when clarifying the currency doesnt add to the drama, they leave it be .

For example, with Mary and Brandon, they put the currency conversion presumably to spell out how ridiculous their business plan was.

But on the other hand, when Wayne said that he, “dumped 40 K into crypto”, they just left that as it is, because they knew the assumption would be more sensational than the reality

Now I’m understanding why Mohammed was so mad and bitter at the 90 day fiancé producers. He kept saying how they didn’t portray the story correctly, and they countered with, “these are all things that you did, Muhammad“

Meanwhile, we can see right here, even through their tactful editing, how they do everything in their power to make us see things the way they want us to .

I respect your opinion, but I like to ask you a question. And you don’t even have to answer it, just let it simmer for a little bit.

Let’s say the situation played out, and all the details were exactly the same, only instead of putting the money into a cryptocurrency, he bought, but he was told was a lucrative stock. So, basically, replace, “crypto” with, “stock market”

Be honest. Would you be calling him an irresponsible idiot, then? Or would you just say he made an investment that didn’t work out?

Here’s the funny thing. We have no idea if that investment worked out. Honestly, unless the value of the crypto dropped by $2000, that same day, he could reverse that decision. If you put a tiny bit of money into crypto, unless the market is extremely volatile, you can usually get it right back if you have buyers remorse. But, others have said that corresponding with the time of filming to now, it’s very likely that his investment grew.

But for some reason, no one is giving him the benefit of the doubt on this.

So that was an African money, but in US dollars, it’s just 2000. 2000 is nothing these days, I am extremely poor and it’s about what I make in a month. If I lost 2000, I would be pretty sad, if I told my fiancé about it, she would be sad for me. She would never get mad at me like that. And if she did, I wouldn’t feel comfortable telling her anything. Already, as it is, I feel societies pressure to be this big, strong guy. I feel so bad for Wayne, because society expects all guys to be stoic and not expressed their emotions, yet Holly is allowed to be an emotional roller coaster. I just watched the scene where she was at her wedding. And she said extremely high expectations for it to be some fairytale, and then, when normal regular life things were happening, and she realized it wasn’t a fairytale, she started to lose it. She’s just a horrible person, and I really don’t think she deserves love. Anyone who expects that much out of people, while delivering nothing in return does not deserve love
