Colt & Larissa & Debbie: Me, You, and Bith Phtew

[Mswldflwr]

It's gotta be said.  Larissa has now single-handedly changed the history of her whole future.  Tchau, Larissa.

She was a blubbering mess on the live Instagram thing last night. It must have nearly killed her to see the cash donated all slip away when the GFM was taken down. Apparently, people were reporting it as a fraudulent campaign. I have no idea if GFM has a sort of check mark legit type thing or if just anyone can post "Hi. I'm [insert real person here] and need money," and get themselves some cash. Ashley has a GFM me now too that says she will be out of work and have no money for months and wants $10k. 

[RealReality10]

I don't understand GFM at all, because there have been far shadier campaigns that have withstood their screening process.  For a while Dani stayed having a GFM and I don't remember it being taken down.  Steven and Olga had a GFM and he was working.  Jay had a GFM to get a hotel room.

Was it taken down because she lied?  Did she not need the money for bail and a lawyer?  I think I maybe donated once through a website like GFM...maybe...and it was for someone I knew was sick, so I'm not familiar with the rules that allows some of these GFM to stay up but takes some of them down.

As far as I read, people were reporting the campaign as fraudulent. I don't know how they determine that these things are real or fake but I'm sure some of the donor names make it seem odd. Since there was all kinds of news about Larissa's arrest, anyone could have posted a fund asking for money even though they have nothing to do with these people. I don't know how GFM works either because if just anyone is allowed to put up a campaign, it's probably rife with fraud.

Yeah, is it one of those things where if enough people "down vote" a campaign they just remove it?

Because many of dani's GFM campaigns seemed fishy and maybe dancing on the line of scammy.

It seems to place a duty on sites like GFM that they may not otherwise have if they start pulling down sites for that reason.

This girl needs help. She is reporting live from the ER being treated for exhaustion and anxiety and says Coltee cancelled her insurance the day before the fight so now she has no insurance. She's asking if he planned it.

Insurance is virtually impossible to understand for Americans forget about a foreigner like Larissa. Someone tell her that most employer sponsored health plans cancellations go to the end of the month they RARELY cut you off by the day mid month. And there are shit tons of mandated rules about cancellation notifications and COBRA notifications to keep your plan independently. It is expensive but she has to be notified. She needs to call the HR department of Coltees employer and they have to respond. If not to her, someone .... like Coltee or the insurer if he is being an ass. She has rights if she was on the plan.

This so much!!

 I am sure by this point Larissa realizes that with a pending divorce, her status is precarious at best. 

She most likely will try to file for a U visa for victims of domestic violence, she most likely will get it as well.  . 

Not so sure in this political climate. When I adjusted status for a green card it was no piece of cake. This was in the days before social media, You don’t need to bring in a photo album to your interview now, just send immigration social media links.

i feel conflicted about Larissa staying, but I think for the sake of her children she needs to go home to Brazil.

COBRA insurance is super expensive even if you have money.  I have no problem believing that Colt convinced her she doesn't have insurance because he cancelled her plan the day before.  

I'm more likely to believe that he never put her on any plan to begin with.  And then lied to her and said she had health insurance.  

He is so yucky.  The only silver lining that comes out of this is that no other woman will be subjected to this nonsense.  I can't see any woman with access to Google dating him.  I also hope he isn't able to get another k1 visa.  Debbie can have her man back.

What's the over under on him going all Norman Bates when Debbie kicks the bucket?

It is sad but there are plenty of women who may give him a chance. He will say it was all X's fault, X was crazy, he was set up, X was looking for money, etc. and he learned from this and has changed and it will not happen again. Maybe he will, maybe he just learned to not make the same mistake.

How do we know she’s even in the hospital? The pic could have been taken from the doorway. 

Did the insurance company deny her or did Colt just tell her it’s canceled?

Even if he canceled her insurance, doesn’t the K1 require him to be on the hook for any government services she takes advantage of.... like public assistance and charity medical care? 

Instead of pleading for handouts from her “fans”, she needs to go to the local social services agency and see what assistance she is entitled to.

You're 100% right about COBRA  and the cost my point was you just dont get dropped without a mandated period of time to choose if you want the continuity. 

You're prob spot on about him never adding her in the first place. 

Gaslighting MFer. She needs, and deserves assistance to navigate all of this. In my opinion she didn't abandon this marriage he did. She held her end of the bargain.

Colt has posted the plan is not cancelled. I know that if you are cancelled off a plan, you still have coverage for the remaining 30 days and by law they have to send you a letter so you have proof so you can do special enrollment on the marketplace. Las Vegas is the closest major hospital to me and I have an ex husband so that didnt want to keep coverage he was suppose to so I have been through this. 

Larissa's posted she was in the ER twice last week for her finger? so I would assume she knows how to use the plan. She has also been going to therapy and the doctor regularly. What I do not understand is she said she ran out of mental health meds and is having issues. Why go to the ER? Can't she call he doctor that she has been seeing? Plus every mental health doctor I know, gives you a follow up appointment before your refill runs out, so did she miss her appointment? use too many? 

My gut thinks since her gofund me got taken down since it can' be used for criminal legal fees and last night plea did not get her enough money, she knows medical go fund me is okay and is using this trip to get a new go fund me. I hope I am wrong, but if Colt is showing she has coverage and Larissa is now saying the hospital made a mistake? 

I never thought I would say Anfisa is a role model but she posted a video yesterday where she talks about learning about our healthcare system. She could not believe the costs and insurance rules. She said after Jorge had 1 ER visit for his gallbladder and it was like 10k for a few hours, she talked to someone and got a plan for herself. Anfsia does not have a green card and can;t work yet so she is in the same place as Larissa , but she found a way to make a sucessful youtube channel and make enough to pay for her own insurance, community college and apartment.

I sincerely think that the last part is excellent advice and I wish someone in her universe would redirect her that way.

If Colt is "on the hook" for her for a period of time, I don't know if she can independently get assistance.  But the biggest point is that I don't know.  I'm not sure how legal aid attorneys work either.

I'm guessing that Larissa didn't read the fine print because she wanted to be in this country with all the opportunity and I'm sure Colt sold everything to her so differently that the idea that she would be in this situation was not fathomable to her.

I know that I'd have a hard time figuring social services out if I was in another country and my biggest source of.information was a gaslighting passive aggressive jerk who wanted to keep me subservient as much as possible

She has, but it seems like this all took time.  It takes time to build up a social media following and get clicks and make money.  I'm not saying Larissa can't do it, but people have been at the YouTube game for years and can barely capitalize on it.  

I think Larissa would do well as some sort of cocktail waitress or card dealer or even doing hair/makeup?  Vegas seems like a place where she would do well, she has an outgoing personality and I think she is attractive.  Whatever lumps bumps and dead teeth she has probably wouldn't be immediately visible in a relatively dark of a casino.

Just a question - why would you think Anfisa doesn't have a green card?  If Jorge petitioned after they were married she received a green card.  It may not be permanent but she should have one.  Otherwise, they would be sending her home.

Well, I'm here now and let me say this couple is a dumpster fire on all levels, but I cannot stand Larissa and I'm a bit surprised at all of the support for her. I guess it started with the complaining two minutes after getting off the plane and the -ee addition to everything. But honestly, I can't stand Colt-ee and I'm supposed to be a peaceful person but I just want to punch his face.

Well, come sit by me, IggyStar, because I'll be damned if I can find a single redeeming or charming quality in either of these two assclowns.  

Maybe I'm just getting too old to put up with such obvious shenanigans but these two jangle my last existing nerve, a doughy looking marshmallow man and a shrieking harpy provide me with a below zero likability factor.

I read that the GFM was taken down because you cannot use the website to request assistance with legal fees, particularly if it’s in defense of an alleged violent crime. The rules are on GFM’s website.

I have been on vacation for a week and had no idea Larissa and Colt were imploding. I hope they are done and officially divorcing. If it’s true Larissa injured herself, she needs to seek legit help from a qualified psychiatrist. She’s clearly unwell. Colt is my better.

Anfisa sais in her latest you tube video which was 1 day ago that she did not have her work permit or whatever she needs to work, she said she got something other card or provisional card quicker then normal but her work permit is still not approved. I would tend to believe her since she has seemed to be honest about college, her credit, medical bills and how she has learned to adjust to the US way of dong things. 

 

Larissa has a new go fund me up already. It just says Help Larissa. People already donating.

I’m an immigrant (not K-1, I did an Investment Visa) and I think that this last group of couples has made a mockery of the process. I’m in complete agreement with the posters who said that not all immigrants need to be highly skilled, but I feel that they should be highly motivated to work hard. I just don’t see that motivation in Larissa.  The American Dream is not to become a millionaire. For most immigrants it’s the opportunity to work hard, to send their children to school so they can have good jobs and a life that’s better and easier than their parents’ life. Does anybody really see Larissa doing whatever it takes to support herself and not be a burden to society?   Why should Larissa (or Fernanda) be allowed to stay in the US? They came on a K-1 Visa to get married. If that marriage fails within a couple of months, I see no reason why that shouldn’t cancel the immigration process. They should be allowed to re-apply for immigration on the same basis as other hopeful immigrants; If they don’t have what it takes to be allowed to immigrate, then so be it. Having been married for a few weeks, even to Coltee, isn’t enough to earn the right to stay.

The K-1 Visa was never meant for Americans to pick a fiance on the internet, import them and then figure out if you get along well enough to marry.  It’s meant for people who already have a relationship, who know they want to marry and the 90 days are just to do the wedding preparations etc.

I agree with you. Many of the K1 spouses we have seen are in college or have finished a program. Aya, Azziza, Daya, Cassia, Devar, Alkesandra, Anfisa, Annie, and Alla all are in college or finished. Some came here it seems to have their kids have more oppurtunity or a better life then they had, Kirkylam, Amy, Alla,  and Aya seem like this was a reason for them. We have not heard Larissa mention her kids or wanting to give them a better life. I have heard she wanted to bring one here eventually? but I'm not sure that is even possible given she might not have custody. 

I also do not see a reason for Larissa to stay if she is no longer married to Colt. I have not seen her say anything about college or a skill she has that is needed here. As someone that lives in the southwestern desert, there are many very people with skills we need that are turned away for visa's. Our city's only neurologist left because they were on a work visa. Las Vegas is the next closest city and all the neurologists for epilepsy are on work visas that expire and then there are fewer and fewer needed doctors. As much as Vegas seems "cool" to the outsiders, not many doctors want to raise a family in Vegas so the vast majority of doctors are foreign and many are on short term work visas. Several engineers did not get their work visas extended and now a bunch of homes sunk in my area due to lack of engineering for soil conditions. Again professionals just do not want to live in the desert and raise kids. What does Larrisa offer? plus she has 3 kids in her home country that others are taking care of. You would think she would want to take the burden off her aging parents that are raising one of her young kids. Feranada I believe, her dad is a citizen of the US, so she has another pathway to stay here. She might have to go back and come back but marriage was not her only option. Her dad's ranch in Mexico (it was on a bonus scene ) looks really nice so she would not be going back to poverty. 

[UniqueHandle]

I noticed as soon as she starts getting negative comments, she turns off them off.  

When my husband divorced his ex-wife, he needed to hire a separate attorney to take his ex off his insurance and she was still on the insurance for 30 days after the divorce was final. He worked for a large company and that was company policy. He works for a large company now and it is the policy of the company he works for at this time as well (just happens to be a health care company).

I suspect that Colt only intended to bring Larissa over and then equivocate over the children.  It would never be the right time for her children to come over.  Something something Debbie, something something money.  

Her best bet would be to get here, suffer Colt and his creepy boobs and small penis for a few years and work.

[RealReality10]

@Cini -- I can't say one way or the other if Larissa would work hard or not.  She could be a total lump, but she hasn't had much of an opportunity to get out there and work.  Or volunteer. 

I know that we can only go by what we see on TV.  But it looks like, as far as I can tell that they live in a tract home maze.  They popped up in the Eastern most parts of southern California during the housing boom.  They just built all these new homes, like tons and tons of them.  There were grocery stores and retail locations but not nearby.  There weren't many bus lines and libraries were miles away.  

I'm not saying for sure that I trust that Larissa is industrious.  Maybe she isn't.  But even the laziest saddest sack on the planet wants their own money enough to work for it.  And, from my experience, immigrants want to work to send money home for their children and family.  You know Colt isn't giving her any money for that.

[HappyDancex2]

My parents were immigrants and obviously many of their friends.  I personally am unwilling to cut this chick any slack LOL.  Send her back and boohole on Colt for bringing this assclown beggar to our country and now we can’t get rid of her.  I can hear her shrill voice harping in the ER about her Depressionies and mental healthies pills.  On behalf of ER docs, thanks for clogging the ER with your stupid non emergency and put that phone down and stop streaming.  

How depressing that Colt is a miserable human being and Larissa is equally up to the challenge....but each in their own unique way.  Horrifying.

Too bad there is no clause in the contract to not allow crowd-begging based on their appearance on a show that is making them famous.  

[RealReality10]

LOL, my parents are immigrants who have done well.  I'm sure neither of them looked great on paper when they first got here. 

I just know that it takes some crazy level of love for this country to sleep with Colt to be here.  I would have just accepted whatever terrible fate I had in my country. 

How many Americans love this country enough to have sex with Colt?

That's a true Patriot.

As far as Larissa’s career aspirations are concerned, she did mention on IG a while ago that once she could legally work, she was going to come out with an activewear line. I found that reminiscent of Paola saying she wanted to bring her shoe line to the US. It’s not easy at all to break into that market. Larissa would have been better off planning to go to school.

[Cini]

Together with her friend Carmen, Larissa wants to sell her own activewear line:

Carmen narrates: "Larissa told me she was trying to buy clothes to go to the gym."  This, Carmen says, was "when she noticed the lack of vibrant colors and feminine designs in the activewear clothing in the US."   Soon," she (Larissa) assures fans. "It will be ready and you guys can get my looks."

I was a bit surprised that Larissa didn’t see any vibrant or feminine designs. Where did she look?   I assume they don’t have the intention to design and manufacture their own line (that would take substantial capital), but rather sell generic items under their label. I just don’t see that there is an actual lack of fun and/or feminine active wear, or that Larissa has enough star-power to attract women to buy from her to “get her looks”. Kate Hudson she is not.

I really don’t want to belittle her desire to start a business, (it’s what I did), but I seriously doubt that this will get her the big house and Jaguar that she wants.

As far a her mental health is concerned, I truly feel sorry for her. Unfortunately the US is not a great country to have a condition that needs treatment unless you have good insurance, or sufficient money.

I don't know what gym Larissa goes to, but I see plenty of colorful and feminine athletic clothing at the gym and sold in stores.  Of course, there are also women like me to don't mind going in black yoga pants and a t-shirt.  But I'd like to assure Larissa that I know I have other options.  I just don't like spending money on workout clothes and neither my husband nor I care if I look cute while working out.

When I  work out I don't care about what I am wearing. I  am there to work out not put on a fashion show.

It is sad but there are plenty of women who may give him a chance. He will say it was all X's fault, X was crazy, he was set up, X was looking for money, etc. and he learned from this and has changed and it will not happen again. Maybe he will, maybe he just learned to not make the same mistake.

I am married now but I was always a little leary of a guy who said "X was crazy!!  She was a nutjob!  She was SO NEEDY!"  I was thinking, yes and I bet you are so perfect.  I was more open to: "Look, we both made mistakes, time to move on!"

That's a true Patriot.

True that sister!

She will not get a u Visa for people with domestic violence because she was the one who got arrested all three times.

@Cini -- I can't say one way or the other if Larissa would work hard or not.  She could be a total lump, but she hasn't had much of an opportunity to get out there and work.  Or volunteer. 

I know that we can only go by what we see on TV.  But it looks like, as far as I can tell that they live in a tract home maze.  They popped up in the Eastern most parts of southern California during the housing boom.  They just built all these new homes, like tons and tons of them.  There were grocery stores and retail locations but not nearby.  There weren't many bus lines and libraries were miles away.  

I'm not saying for sure that I trust that Larissa is industrious.  Maybe she isn't.  But even the laziest saddest sack on the planet wants their own money enough to work for it.  And, from my experience, immigrants want to work to send money home for their children and family.  You know Colt isn't giving her any money for that.

I agree that living in a housing development on the fringes of town requires transportation. 

Question, why are most of the foreign fiances not able to drive? You don’t need a US license to drive here and you don’t need an immigrant visa/green card.  I came here with a 1-year tourist visa (I didn’t think that 3 months under the  Visa Waiver program was enough time for me to decide if I wanted to live here). Within a couple of days of arriving, I bought, insured and drove a car with my German DL. Perfectly legal. I did get a US DL after a while, but I don’t remember if I still had a non-immigrant tourist visa or the immigrant investment visa at that time. The only reason I can think of why Larissa and others are not able to drive here is because they don’t have a DL in their country either.  Of course, poor Larissa would have had to share the car with Debbie and Coltee

[RealReality10]

Yeah, an activewear line is a bad idea.  Maybe the people at the gym she goes to don't wear a lot of color, but even Target and Walmart have colorful workout clothes.

She just needs a legit job.  Like a come in at 10 leave at 7 job.  Maybe do a marykay, Avon or Herbalife side hustle.

I’m an immigrant (not K-1, I did an Investment Visa) and I think that this last group of couples has made a mockery of the process. I’m in complete agreement with the posters who said that not all immigrants need to be highly skilled, but I feel that they should be highly motivated to work hard. I just don’t see that motivation in Larissa.  The American Dream is not to become a millionaire. For most immigrants it’s the opportunity to work hard, to send their children to school so they can have good jobs and a life that’s better and easier than their parents’ life. Does anybody really see Larissa doing whatever it takes to support herself and not be a burden to society?   Why should Larissa (or Fernanda) be allowed to stay in the US? They came on a K-1 Visa to get married. If that marriage fails within a couple of months, I see no reason why that shouldn’t cancel the immigration process. They should be allowed to re-apply for immigration on the same basis as other hopeful immigrants; If they don’t have what it takes to be allowed to immigrate, then so be it. Having been married for a few weeks, even to Coltee, isn’t enough to earn the right to stay.

The K-1 Visa was never meant for Americans to pick a fiance on the internet, import them and then figure out if you get along well enough to marry.  It’s meant for people who already have a relationship, who know they want to marry and the 90 days are just to do the wedding preparations etc.

I agree with you. Many of the K1 spouses we have seen are in college or have finished a program. Aya, Azziza, Daya, Cassia, Devar, Alkesandra, Anfisa, Annie, and Alla all are in college or finished. Some came here it seems to have their kids have more oppurtunity or a better life then they had, Kirkylam, Amy, Alla,  and Aya seem like this was a reason for them. We have not heard Larissa mention her kids or wanting to give them a better life. I have heard she wanted to bring one here eventually? but I'm not sure that is even possible given she might not have custody. 

I also do not see a reason for Larissa to stay if she is no longer married to Colt. I have not seen her say anything about college or a skill she has that is needed here. As someone that lives in the southwestern desert, there are many very people with skills we need that are turned away for visa's. Our city's only neurologist left because they were on a work visa. Las Vegas is the next closest city and all the neurologists for epilepsy are on work visas that expire and then there are fewer and fewer needed doctors. As much as Vegas seems "cool" to the outsiders, not many doctors want to raise a family in Vegas so the vast majority of doctors are foreign and many are on short term work visas. Several engineers did not get their work visas extended and now a bunch of homes sunk in my area due to lack of engineering for soil conditions. Again professionals just do not want to live in the desert and raise kids. What does Larrisa offer? plus she has 3 kids in her home country that others are taking care of. You would think she would want to take the burden off her aging parents that are raising one of her young kids. Feranada I believe, her dad is a citizen of the US, so she has another pathway to stay here. She might have to go back and come back but marriage was not her only option. Her dad's ranch in Mexico (it was on a bonus scene ) looks really nice so she would not be going back to poverty. 

I vowed to not speak about these two again, but you two said what I'm thinking very eloquently.  Thank you.  Deport them both....to North Korea.  I'll go pick-up Debbie and she can live with me.  We have cats.  And I like Beef Stew.

What exactly is her look?  Kardashian has already been done.  She’s not young enough to Jenner.

Trashyis a dime a dozen.  Also colorful yoga is what Lularoe is based on.  Ironically she comes from the land of the most imported yoga clothing that is tight and revealing...Brazil.   If she can’t find it, she’s not looking.  And they have specialty fabrics...not just rebranding patterned junk.  Also ironic she comes from an area of plastic surgery rife to have that incredible body that she herself doesn’t have.   Maybe she thought being a 2 in Brazil would be a 10 in America?  

If she started an athletic wear line for men that would hold in all of coltee’s man jiggle and make him look less jabbabarian...now that would be innovative!

Carmen narrates: "Larissa told me she was trying to buy clothes to go to the gym."  This, Carmen says, was "when she noticed the lack of vibrant colors and feminine designs in the activewear clothing in the US."   Soon," she (Larissa) assures fans. "It will be ready and you guys can get my looks."

I think a lot of people who are interested in starting a business make this mistake - they can't find something they personally want and assume it's a hole in the market. I see a lot of fitness apparel in bright colors but my guess is that "feminine design" to Larissa means "super low cut." That doesn't work for going to the gym where you want support. In other words, what she is seeing in stores is what people will actually buy. I can see her producing a "Forever 21-ish" line of low cut, super short, glittery, rhinestone bedecked "fitness wear" that no one would actually buy and wear.

She would be better off going to school, particularly in a profession with growth potential.

Fabletics makes bright colorful and some revealing clothing.  Basically, she's saying she couldn't find anything to her taste.  That doesn't mean it's everyone else's taste.  I don't know what kind of work she could do.  She wouldn't be able to deal with the public.

My parents were immigrants and obviously many of their friends.  I personally am unwilling to cut this chick any slack LOL.  Send her back and boohole on Colt for bringing this assclown beggar to our country and now we can’t get rid of her.  I can hear her shrill voice harping in the ER about her Depressionies and mental healthies pills.  On behalf of ER docs, thanks for clogging the ER with your stupid non emergency and put that phone down and stop streaming.  

How depressing that Colt is a miserable human being and Larissa is equally up to the challenge....but each in their own unique way.  Horrifying.

Too bad there is no clause in the contract to not allow crowd-begging based on their appearance on a show that is making them famous.  

I have no idea how the payouts for appearing on this shitshow work....

Shouldn't she have gotten a separate check upon conclusion of filming?  

Or maybe the couples are issued only one joint check if they do in fact get married?

Your post made me curious about where the money Shriekies and Doughie Boy were paid was distributed.  

Surely all the couples have been paid by now.

Anyone know how this works?

I think only the US Citizen is paid. The foreign spouse has no right to work and earn an income in the US until they get an immigrant-visa/ green card . Paying foreign nationals involves a whole lot of hurdles and hassle and makes tax season much more complicated.

And it would have to have padding built into the crotch.  Then Coltee and Jonathan would both buy it.
