Bankrupting My Mother with Uncontrollable Spending Habits | Spendaholics | Only Human 

he will know who his true friends are now when he stopped paying for them

I think it’s pretty common behavior. Buying people’s affection or their usefulness. Of course…it’s always better if you can afford it!

To be fair, with how often they were going out, many of his friends probably couldn’t afford to pay their own way if they paid for themselves every time.

Look at the state of him. There’s nothing to him.

You cant buy friends

Criss Errol right? He looks homeless.

@@JackiHamm Technically, he is homeless.

Lol. It is a long time ago

2005 tho. This was quite stylish in 05

This is old, so he actually dresses pretty typical of people back in the early 2000s. He has a flip phone if you didn't notice :p

Whats a toaster strudel??

😆 toaster strudels are so good

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

There are very few things that come out of a toaster that I dislike. Toast, crumpets, bagels, hot cross buns... ooh.

Lol what..

33:14 hahaha i liked the way the camera zoomed slowly into the host's smiling face

BRUH!!!! 🤣🤣😂😂👀💀💀💀

Truth

@@fatmarlowe relax yourself..there is always someone who THINKS they are the socially correct police.. just worry about yourself and not what anyone else says and YOU would be a happier person

@@fatmarlowe So, associating gays with good qualities is now homophobic? I'll add that to my list of things I need to be offended by. "Everytime someone calls me artistic." If that's homophobic, then what the hell do you call making decisions for all of us? I say that's more damaging than assoiciating artistic with being gay.

Yes...she enabled him.

At the same time he's a selfish person not many siblings would take from their mother he needs to man up and stop using people !! Grow up. The mother doesn't even understand that she's hurting him not helping this man ..

AE Lee Facts.

True. He massively took advantage but she really should have said no. It's outrageous.

While I agree with you on many levels, parents who pay money monthly to their kids are not necessarily bankrupting the kids morals or taking away their sense of responsibility. The problem with the way Graham's parents give him money is it seems they do so to replace love, time and other family issues with money. They don't ask him to work or even to volunteer and just throw money at the situation without asking anything of him. My parents have been paying me a pretty nice sum of money for the last 25 years. HOWEVER, I do research for my family, and that includes for cousins and other branches of the family and its business. I'm also the family historian and photo archivist. I am expected to show them a budget , take classes on stocks, bonds and other wealth management issues, and volunteer. Unlike this guy, I could care less about impressing the neighbors and my best friend, who also has quite a decent bank amount, and I LOVE to try and get good deals like going to second hand stores, coupons and more. Sure, we go to University Club and other more elegant places once in a while, but we are just as happy at the Diner down the street or the little hole in the wall coffee shop. We also both have pretty good morals and don't do drugs, steal, hurt others or the like. So, just wanted to say that not all folks are as purposefully obtuse as this kids was in the beginning of the film. Peace!!! Thanks for sharing your observations!

Thank you so much for the update , #RIHMUM😇 ... I'm happy to see they were at peace with it all b4 her passing n him being in debt😉💭❣ Hope he's living his best life 🆓️ from all the weight of his childhood 😘 n doin what he loves to do, n saving 💲🤑💲❣...

Thanks for the update. Good news.

🫡✌️❣️🇬🇧

Well his mother didn't like that he was gay

It's a known fact Graham that when spending other People's Money 💰 their is no Attachment ,But when you have to Spend your own Money we'll you feel it when you have to part with it .

No, he’s a grown adult.

Hey do you know if hes still looking for a sugar deddy?

@@youremybiggestfan Are you offering?

Gwyn Meade surprised he doesnt

go from one parasitic relationship to another. good advice. He should get a job in the fashion industry. he does have a degree.

it really would be that easy for him

You right 🙏🙏🙏🙏

True

Yep. He even went to school for it!!

He knows fashion. He has just been in the habit of letting the employees do the work. They were giving him the attention that the 13-year-old Graham inside craved so much.

FACTS!

Soo true.. He is a sweet young man who just needed smone to reach out.

Yes, The Truths will set you 🆓️❣.... this is a Awesome show to turn live around n put families back together n at peace 😇💭❣... Hes a very well mannered n responsible man in the end 👏🛍👏❣... Even carried himself with self pride not spoiled bought pride✔❣

Patricio El Toro You’re damn right!! He’s a soyboy with a rich mother and an inherited genetic stupidity and early permanent disrupted maturity past the possibility of reform!

@@vladimator1842 Heard his a chef now cooking good food so goodluck to him. I think the credit boom that happened during that era didn't help. Always pay cash and if you don't got it learn to deal without it!!

@@patricioeltoro1985 Exactly.

As he deserves to be used, sadly

this is why gay street has died it was full of these idiots financing it

@Anon Anon When it's obvious, according to you, what mental health issues do you mean?

He's a grown man, not a child

Lol So she should get a BF because she has a child? She was a woman and still is a woman before she became a mum. Lol no one is saying shit about the dad. She raised her child the best way she could and shouldn't be held to your standards just because you think all mums should be a certain way.

Looking for a new partner to have your child raised by two parents may be better for the child. But there has to be an equilibrium.

@@chelseaogbo6421 She shouldn't have chosen a man who did not enjoy the company of her children... Your children are your 1st priority. If your partner does not enjoy your children, then they're probably not the person for you. (This goes for both men and women).

yep - I loathed him in the beginning but he really, really wanted to try to get it done and he did.

cartoon junkie Yes - I admired how he tackled the challenge. He’s a nice guy whose mum has a lot to answer for. He seems insecure and lacks confidence.His self esteem is at rock bottom.

I think most of the comments here are from people that only watched a few minutes.

💜 SAME HERE! I ABSOLUTELY FELL IN LOVE WITH HOW SWEET GRAHAM IS 😊 HE REALLY CHANGED HIS WAYS! HE WANTED TO BETTER HIS LIFE, STOP LIVING OFF HIS MOM & I FEEL HE'S SUCCESSFUL. GREAT JOB & STAY BLESSED GRAHAM 😊🤗💜💜💜

I can’t imagine how lonely his childhood has been and I’m so proud of him taking on the emotional pain that shows up once the shopping bandaid has been torn off. He’s a good kid and very likable

thank you for such a lovely comment! i realize i have nothing to do with this issue or this show, but there have been just so many negative comments that i wanted to let you know it was very nice to read yours!! thank you - you have honestly made my day a little brighter!

@@SpoonieSensei I'm glad I could make your day! Thank you for sharing that. That makes my day!

Satin Perfume I totally agree with you

He is so fake

I was thinking the same thing

1 out of 25 comments that point out positive and actually see these people as human. The other commentators are hateful towards this really good story and the people who benefited from this experience. Thanks for your comment.

@@rebeccahoward4708 It's easier to judge than to think. ❤️

Think it’s partly her husband’s money. It’s the only thing that makes since.

Well said 👏 👌 👍

360 is going back to where he started. Just saying.

I think you mean 180 😊

Sadly it's very common because it's human nature.

Mine too my mum dated child molesters

@@Sinsteel NO ITS NOT

She admitted she was weak and make a mistake letting that person back into her life because she was lonely

Yep same old story

I agree, all she has to do is say NO!

Definitely. Notice how this channel seem to upload vids from years ago ? This one 2005 😑

skp yeah like if some boyfriend didn’t like my kid, he’d be packing his ass off to exville

Satin Perfume that’s not even the worst of it. When he was 13, mum had a boyfriend who didn’t like him and instead of leaving the boyfriend, she paid the kid off so he’d put up with it.

Yes. His mom is an enabler. I have zero sympathy for her.

He would be pretty cute if he didn’t talk and act like a girl 😟😟

Poutine in England?! Sounds like a risky business happy it worked out for him

Thats Awesome, thanks for update 😉💭 saving bought him a business that will support his life 👏😇❣

@@Jesus420.69 tbf, anywhere northern in England is probably better than Canada for a poutine business lol. Cheesy chips and gravy is the dish of kings up there

Well...I know a guy who turns 49 end of this month and he has himself a 68 year old sugar daddy who carries him through life. before that, he sold drugs and bummed off his parents and other people...never worked a day in his life mostly.

He needs to Grow up geez

You didn't live his life. Perhaps it's better not to be so judgemental. Different environments breed different outcomes. It seems your comment comes from a sense of superiority but i can very well say is utterly unfounded. He probably emerged a stronger and better person than most of us will ever be. If you do have issues some day, i hope no one comes to you with "ffs, everyone else can do it, why can't you?" Cheers.

Just Some Guy she hasn’t saved for retirement and she wishes to retire in 5 years??? And she’s an art teacher. Her retirement will not be fun.

"both him and his mother need to grow a pair" - which is what the entire video was about. Did you even watch the entire thing or did you just comment based on the title and first 5 minutes of the video?

@@causetheplumstasteyum7848 ahh, a troll. No worries. I sincerely hope whatever led you to being an internet troll gets better and you find some personal peace one of these days.

@@shaybob1711 Na cmon , if your gonna diss me son , don't go off topic and ignore it , do it properly , You asked, questioned my comment and in to which i replied yes , within the first 5 minutes , so hit me up on that and give me some info as you clearly had some , if your just gonna go with " ah a troll " I give up cause someone challenged me and i literally shat my pants and don't know what else to do ? come on young man , You asked if i watched the whole thing , perhaps you could elaborate some what on some of that other content , maybe drop a convo / topic in we can disuss ? I'l give you abit to think up a sensible reply ok boi ? :) x

He's successful now😊

@@margaretr5701 what's he doing?

Well put.

I wish I could hug his mother !

Agree seems him mum prioritised a man abusive partner over her kids. I have no sympathy for her

yep

YeS!! Very cheap styles 😭👗

Early 2000s clothing at it's finest.

Many designer labels are just ugly, overpriced clothes that some poor kid slave in a sweatshop made.

That's the hobo style that was trendy about 15 years ago even top sportmen and top models dressed like that

He's most likely trying to fill a hole with his spending. Also, they way he treats his mates to round after round of drinks. Tells me he's lonely and needs their affirmation.

@@el-maiki Everything doesn't need to be a mental disorder. He is just a spoiled brat.

@@disabledbabe lol I agree!

heehee mefunny I dont mean cute physically, I mean he thinks his behaviour is cute.

@@el-maiki you have no way of knowing that.

Iain Dennis you gotta remember this was a while ago, fashion was weird back then.

@@tobiassl8011 But as a fashion major, you'd think he'd see what was wrong with that grungy style of the early 2000s and try to move away from it. Instead he just tacked on more tacky. And that haircut?😬

Yup...a total fruit cake...

I like the haircut. About the only thing I like about him.

His dad needs to give him a good bitch slapping.

In his case I agree. But don't judge us all the same. I have mobikity problems and can't get to the end of the block without panicking that i'm going to fall. So taxis are the only option for me.But I pay for my own transport. This man should not be taking his mum's money. She needs to stop him bullying her (bullying can be verbal as well as physical.) And not finance him. I think he has a mental problem her. I hope he can change.

Thing is he stays close to the big city. 10 minutes walk is a good way to move around and it's good exercise. Unlike some places there are highways so there's no choice u need a vehicle to move around.

The hair cuts too are 2000's

This is maybe 10 years old lmao.

How old are you? 11?

@@MomoKunDaYo 2005 according to the roman numerals at the end of the show MMV. When I was 18...ahh the good old days.

Craig Young 👏😂

Great Going. God bless you

1Mommy Dez - congrats on getting and staying clean, it’s great to hear you battled thru and that you’re in a better place 😊 wishing you all the best for the future, you definitely deserve it 👍🏼♥️

Depends what drug is these are, bit if a gap between meth and say heroin

Yeah where would you even wear them

They certainly don't look good

+ Julie Arnold This bum is not a child, ergo, he deserves no sympathy. He needs to be forced to grow the frakk up.

Were is his biological dad...could be the cause

@@liesdamnliesandstatsweird1934 yes and it is his responsibility, but his mom is a horable parent who clearly shouldn't have given him all the money when he was a kid, it was her fault he was like this.

Don't, he's a grown man , he should know better

@@velvet2406 The dad is not on the scene obviously , he is not mentioned at all so i doubt it .

that was so unprofessional... smh

@@Phenurb yes, a little unprofessional. He could have put it better: 'By 'artistic' are you refering to his sexuality perhaps?

+ NVR Mnd Yep, you called it correctly!!!

I watch what I say to others. But sometimes we just have to be told the plain unvarnished truth. And usually when this happens it does not make us feel comfortable, it's not meant too. It's meant to make us think. Maybe if this lady had not had rose coloured glasses on concerning her grown son they would not have been in this situation. Because he would not have taken her through this without her consent. He may not have even considered it if he had been told a few truths along the way.

Saying gay instead of beating around of the bush as if her child is different or not normal is more comfortable for the mom, he said it deliberately.

I agree.

according2paro Me too . It’s not about the money. He seems isolated and his mum will give him anything but her time. He’s thriving on the attention he’s getting from the team and trying so hard. He may even be punishing his mum for neglecting him.

As I read the nasty comments I am realizing those making the comments didn't finish watching it. How people feel entitled to comment without watching the entire episode is deplorable. Before any of us comment on any topic you should have enough sense to gather as many facts as you can....in this case, watch the ENTIRE segment.

He has a business with a partner in London

Yeah, total 180 for me by the end

I was thinking that. Throwing money at him instead of spending time with him. He even asks her all the time and she declines! I found that heartbreaking. Hopefully today they both have a better relationship. We only live once after all and life is short. 🙏

Jan Marchand If you have a healthy bank account, I’ll bet you could have him!

I was cross with him until I realised he's making an effort to change.

Put a comma between kids and parents.

Does anybody know if he sorted out his life?

Are you transgender?

+Renee Slarve Baby Graham clearly does not care about his mother. 🤦🏽🤦🏽🤦🏽

It’s a nervous laugh. People tend to show various stress indicators when you’re unpacking their deepest flaws, insecurity, and entire life on national (at the time) broadcast. If it was malicious laughter, there’d be a lot less openness, progress, and actual change. He would’ve continued to sabotage his mom, and in a plethora of other ways, besides financially.

Watching these makes me nostalgic

aw man im so happy for them, I hope he and his mom have a better relationship now too

Well, they are legally married so...

@Alice Moore Mate, homosexual marriage is legal so stop being a douche, they also deserve to get married and be loved.

Excellent!!! Great news!

Agree.

Why no one blame outside ppl

Now you blame the mother.. in the western world for everything you come with some psychological reason.. I'm from asia...we say spade is a spade.. no matter what he came up with..cant he figure out between his mother's blind love and stupid money sucking friends..

😂

He I not a fashion designer, he did a course in fashion. Completely different
