I guess you've heard the news about what will happen to FatWallet. I'm now an orphan. Cheer me up. This is my first post.

Not as warm as a golden shower, but they know that.

From a recent post by Tim Storm (former owner of FW) on Facebook (Wed 9/20 10:36 am).

I heard the news today... oh boy.
When I sold FatWallet in 2011, I told myself that I sold the right to complain about whatever happened after that.
I'm immensely proud of what we built - and sad to hear that it will be shutting down very very soon.
I've not been involved at all in the last 6 years, but my heart is with everyone that played a part, either with me, or after me.
It was a hell of a ride.


Also confirmed by FW mod.
