I was inspired by the TV show "The Simple Life". I wanted to pitch the opposite show, where bums are put into high society. So I wanted to make a video. I'm not rich put I have a nice house and a family, so I went to the city, picked up 4 bums and invited them to stay with us. My wife and daughters were a little mad but so what right? The bums are completely out of control, they have trashed the whole house, they go to the bathroom on the floor, they sexually abuse my wife and daughters. I have lost all my money, my job, and soon I will lose my house. The bums also assualted other people in the neighborhood, and they blame me! What can I do? Give up my brilliant show idea? Then I won't make the money I need to make things right again! Help!

Get rid of the bums, I think your idea is not well thought through.
I understand how a concept of spoilt rich girls in simple environment can be fun for certain audiences to watch. But bums? I mean if you are some rich brat, you supposedly lost touch with reality and the show can show that there are more important things then Gucci bags and Bentleys. So in a way to show that rich people have feelings, that we are all human and that they are simple people inside. Now what about bums? You take people who have nothing in their life (and bums are not always bums without a reason - some are there because they are just lazy, so what kind of bums you picked, I dont know) and put these people into a not so rich environment... So what lesson is the audience supposed to learn? Watch them adopt to this life? Remember, they will eventually go back to their old life. Ok, so if I am rich, and go to a farm, I can pretend to life like that, safe in a knowledge that my return home is a return to something good. the bums will return to whateer you picked them up from. So they wil make the most of their stay with you - and I mean most of it by not learning the table manners.
PS. I think you are actually a bit silly to do this, or just making the whole thing up, but if you are not - get rid of them before they do something stupid, and before your family leaves you.

This sounds like a put-on.
Nobody's that stupid or arrogant to even consider keeping the idea going if their family is getting sexually abused. This is a sick joke.
A normal, sane person would've forcebly removed them from the house, or called the cops.
On another note, the concept would work for TV if you picked 1 bum and made sure he was a good person. Of course, this isn't real, you're a fool. And that show idea, totally stupid. Just like The Simple Life, so if that's your goal, gratz.

Ok anyone who would put a little bit of money before their wife and daughters has some serious issues. OMG, i mean seriously, i have heard of some freaky crap in my life but nothing like that. Is a little bit of money it doesn't sound like ur getting anyway gonna pay for all these damages they're causing or fix ur wife and childs emotional scars?

Ok, this one is obvious!!! GET RID OF THE BUMS!!! Are you a complete idiot?? Your wife and daughter are getting sexually abused, WAKE UP CALL!!! You should have carefully considered this idea some more. You don't just invite 4 strange bums to live with you. It's really really REALLY stupid!

Ummm, I think that you are full of it. Are you liking in this fantasy world, or just trying to get attention on the net. if your wife or daughters were assaulted in anyway by these "bums" then they would be in jail, not your house! Get counseling, so that maybe someday you will be able to distinguish fact from fantasy!

You would be well advised in asking the What Should I Do Retard for a solution.
