Posted: September 11th, 2009 | Author: mattsly | Filed under: FutureMe | No Comments »On a fairly regular basis, feedback at futureme dot org gets silly requests that make me chuckle. Or cry. Or both. Here are some of the recent more memorable ones:
Mar. 3, 2010: Send my letters explaining S&P 500 movement to an earlier date
These two emails are by far the most important and valuable emails I have ever sent in my life to anyone including myself. the public email starts: “Please reveal to me the S&P500′s sequential order of movement and activity for the week of 2010/1/18. I thank you. I love you. I am eternally grateful. Amen.”
Oct. 6, 2009: We hate people with cancer, apparently (FM requires 30 day sending date minimum…) Jay says: “you’ll never beat cancer with an attitude like that”
Saw this on the Today Show this morning and decided to write myself a letter to see how I was doing next week and got a response that said you’re not a reminder service jaand it must be a month away. Well, you know what, when you have cancer, a month may not come for you. What a crappy service. You should be ashamed.
Sep. 18, 2009: He’s afraid about getting fired b/c he forgot his meds:
I was not taking my anti-depressants and think I sent a future me e-mail to my boss by mistake.
Please help me.
If he receives it I will lose my job.
Please help.

You are my last hope. We have lived with my girlfriend about one year in peace, but serious problems have more recently begun. It is very guilty to me and tries to disappear from my life not to hurt. We are very love each other, but I do not understand as myself to conduct.
More recently she has written 2 letters on your site. (her e-mail **********@mail.ru). the Second should be delivered on June, 30th.
If is though any possibility – send me please text of this letters on *********@gmail.com. Becouse of i wanted to know what i should do to keep peace beetween us and wish to know not to lose she. Help to rescue love.
Yours faithfully, *****
