100 Things I Know Now that I Didn't Know Then

By Unknown - 9:58 AM



Isn't it funny how many things we learn a day? I mean, think about it. In the course of twenty-four hours I feel like we learn countless subtle lessons that keep us growing in ways we didn't know were possible. Even if we don't notice it, we're always going to know more down the road then we do right now at this very moment. So here are the things I know now that I didn't know then.

  6. This man is dedicated to his work and you can trust him more than yourself. I contacted him a year and a half Ago and he didn't succeed. when i got ripped of $491,000 worth of bitcoins by scammers, I tried several recovery programs with no success too. I kept on. And now after so much time Mr Morris Gray contacted me with a success, and the reward he took was small because obviously he is doing this because he wants to help idiots like me who fell for crypto scam, and love his job. Of course he could have taken all the coins and not tell me , I was not syncing this wallet for a year, but he didn't.
    He is the MAN guys , He is! If you have been a victim of crypto scam before you can trust Morris Gray 10000000%. I thought there were no such good genuine guys anymore on earth, but Mr Morris Gray brought my trust to humanity again. GOD bless you sir...you can reach him via ( MORRIS GRAY 830 at Gmaill dot com ) or Whatsapp +1 (607)698-0239........
