atypical hollywood life

Like Margaret, he also needs a professional tax reporting company to serve him. He even knows more about this than Margaret. After all, he read this, and when he first started his business But there are no such good conditions, and you need to do it yourself, so you know more about the various terms and conditions.

"The Police Foundation?" Margaret thought thoughtfully.

That's not a bad idea.Although the foundation under her name also radiates services to the police, its capacity is still limited after all. Donating to reliable charitable organizations can make the money more useful.

As a result, several reliable and scandal-free charities serving the police with offices in Los Angeles each received a lot of donations, and the chief of the Los Angeles Police Department also received a large donation.

"I am very grateful to Ms. Hughes and Mr. Hansen for their generous donations. The police officers in Los Angeles will remember your support for the police cause." Old Green's smile almost couldn't close his mouth.

Never thought that he could have such achievements before retiring.What?You said that donations are not counted as political achievements, are they spontaneous?Innocent!This is of course an achievement!As long as he is on any day, this is considered a political achievement!Margaret and Luke's donations are not only bonuses for the dispatched police officers, but also for the infrastructure of police facilities.Even though the Los Angeles Police Department is not in the poor state of a small town, the money can still increase the welfare of the policemen. If you really want to count it, the chief's political achievements are not small!

"As a good citizen, when our hero rushes forward to protect the people, of course he has to do a little bit of responsibility. If the money can create a better environment, then it is very worthwhile." Luke said with a smile on his face .

As far as the scene is concerned, he is very familiar with it, and he plays this set quite smoothly.

"...Honorary citizen..." Old Green felt even better when he saw the things unloaded from the truck, and chatted with Luke and Margaret endlessly.

"Honorary citizen?" The two looked at each other and twitched their mouths.

"Isn't that unnecessary?" It sounded super shameless.

"Oh, of course. You have made great contributions to the construction of the Los Angeles Police Department. We have nothing to thank you for. It's just an honorary citizen. It's nothing." Old Green said with a smile.

Look at the surroundings of these kangaroos. This brand can be regarded as a mid-range brand that has sprung up in Los Angeles in the past two years. It has a variety of canned food and food, both in terms of nutritional value and taste. It is very popular among people who like to travel. Brand, his son, a photographer who runs around, often carries a lot of products of this brand on his back when he goes out to collect pictures.In addition, this brand also has a variety of kangaroo leather goods, and the price is also very advantageous, which is very popular among the common people.The police, in fact, is not a profession with huge income, and not every middle-class person can afford luxury goods, so Old Green is still very happy to see the bonus of this truck, and it is also a good idea to benefit his subordinates. It's the chief's job.

Yes, that’s right, Margaret’s kangaroo product processing factory finally invited a few chefs from China to make great contributions to the research and development of taste, plus the addition of various sales channels, It has successfully entered the local market and is now entering North America.And because it has also contributed to the local ecological environment and safety, it is still an excellent company in Australia. I really don't know what to say about this unexpected situation.

After all, Australia and the United States have always been very subtle. The Australian kangaroo processing factory opened by the Americans is a bit weird. In addition, Margaret's status as a big star and the fact that she was kicked by a kangaroo The experience of shaking for several days... well, anyway, the result is very gratifying.For this donation, she donated a carload of products by the way. Anyway, they are of good quality and cheap, so maybe they can open up the police system market?Margaret thought optimistically.

In the end, Margaret and Luke made the headlines of the "Los Angeles Times". As the most influential local paper media, such official events have always been published by this large newspaper with a good relationship with the government.

The "Los Angeles Times" was not the only one joining in the fun, because the robbery this time was really influential, and many people paid attention to it. The Los Angeles police system also wanted to promote itself, and the relationship between Margaret and Luke The number of donations is also the largest amount received by the police system in recent years, so almost all the larger and more credible media in the United States have stepped in the middle.

And the most influential one is neither the local newspapers and magazines in Los Angeles, nor the "New York Times" and "Washington Post", but Oprah Winfrey's talk show.

"Yeah, I was on the verge of falling apart. Peter was injured and retired from the field. He also had severe PTSD. He couldn't work at all. Not to mention sometimes violent, and we have five children. Needing support, mortgages and car loans, the whole family is in a mess. I even had the idea of ​​giving up my life at the time, you know, it is difficult for people to maintain reason when they are in a desperate situation." Dark-skinned middle-aged woman Wiped away tears and told Oprah.

"I totally understand how you feel. My teenage life was a mess, surrounded by violence and poverty. I often felt that life was too harsh on me. Sometimes I even thought it would be better if I died... But now you You came out successfully, didn't you? You are better than many people in this regard!" Oprah said with tears in her eyes while holding Luna's hand.

It caused a burst of sighs and emotions from the audience.

It is normal for people to have the idea of ​​committing suicide when they encounter difficulties, especially difficulties that are almost impossible to get out of.The audience present are almost all housewives, and they have rich experience in life. They know Luna's feelings too well, and there may be a few of them who have experienced this feeling of wanting to die.

"Yes, I finally got out of that disaster, and my husband, we are living happily now." Luna said with a smile on her face.

Those sufferings have passed, and now she has her own business, and her husband has got rid of PTSD and can live a normal life, which is something she never dared to think about before.

"Speaking of this, honey, would you mind telling us about your experience?" Oprah said softly.

Her programs have always focused on social themes, focusing on digging out all kinds of things and stories that happened to ordinary people, which is why "Oprah's Talk Show" is so popular among housewives.Today's Luna Carrera is an inspirational figure among ordinary people. After marrying her husband Peter Carrera at the age of 19, she became a full-time housewife. It took less than three years for the housewife to successfully become the owner of her own shop, and the ups and downs in the process are the best topic.

"Of course." Luna readily agreed.What she is most grateful for now is the person who dragged her out of the quagmire. Of course, she would not mind letting everyone share her feelings, and maybe it can help more people.

"Actually, I really want to thank someone in person, who helped me in my most difficult time, but I never had the chance." Luna looked at the doubtful audience and Oprah under the stands, chuckled, and touched her hand ring, caught in memory.

"At that time, Peter was very emotionally confused when he had PTSD. When it was severe, he couldn't even recognize me, and would often hurt me unconsciously. But after he woke up, he would punish this behavior by hurting himself... Things turned around when a neighbor called the police. Peter had a severe attack that day. He not only smashed our kitchen, but also broke my bones. Afterwards, the police told me that he tried to commit suicide in the detention room..." Luna's memories are not beautiful, but with scars and pain.

"Oh, my God—" the audience in the audience sighed.

This is really a sad thing. In the United States, countless families are destroyed every year because of PTSD, and countless people fall into the trough of life because of PTSD. Basically, this is a kind of fear that people hear. Symptoms, I didn't expect Luna to be so miserable at the beginning.

"The female police officer who received me was very kind. She didn't know that Peter had PTSD at the beginning, but simply thought that I had been subjected to domestic violence. She gave me a phone number and asked me to call when I encountered difficulties." At this point, Luna asked mischievously, "What kind of phone number do you think that is?"

"Um, I guess a lawyer?" Oprah cooperated with her to name a profession.

"No, no, no, Oprah, it's not a lawyer, it's a foundation, a foundation that focuses on helping women and children who have been victimized by violence and sexual harm." Luna shook her head and said that the other party's guess was wrong.

"So you got help from this foundation?" Oprah asked the audience's aspirations, controlling the rhythm of the show.

"That's not the case. I didn't know about this foundation until later. The first thing I contacted was a foundation that helps retired disabled soldiers. Peter's matter was recorded at the local police station, and they quickly figured it out. What happened was that kind female police officer, she thought that I might turn to the foundation that helps disabled veterans... After that, things were very logical, they helped Peter find a doctor for treatment, and because I It is also a different kind of domestic violence victim, so that women and children's foundation also accepted my application." Luna showed a big smile.

"Then there is continuous treatment and training. Peter has been in the army for many years, and I was a housewife a long time ago, so we have undergone a life transformation without any skills. When Peter recovers It's almost stable, and our training has come to an end. After the foundation staff helped us contact the bank for a loan, then you will know that I succeeded, and everything is developing in a good direction." Luna shrugged Shrugged and made a gesture that I am a successful person.

There was a chuckle from the audience.

Although Luna's words are very simple, it is not difficult for everyone to imagine the things she encountered and the hardships involved. It must be difficult for this woman to be able to fight to the point where she is today.

"It was only later that I found out who this foundation belongs to. You must not have guessed it." Luna showed a mysterious smile and asked everyone a question.

"I think it's a rich man?" Oprah glanced around the studio, telling the audience that I didn't know, and guessed.

"Bill Gates?"

"Buffett?"

"Julian Robinson?"

……

The audience in the audience called out the names of the famous philanthropists they thought, and took stock of those celebrities.
