Just for the record, I don't care what's actually going on. Whether Tanner has a real Cent, is an AU or has a working replica, it has no bearing on my life. But Tanner, your story (as you have admitted) is very suspicious and doesn't add up imo. There are tons of ways to put all of this to rest, and you're under no obligation, but given your behavior it doesn't seem like you shy away from attention so I can't figure out a reason why you wouldn't. I think the AU on parent's story is probably what actually happened and you know what, who cares...you have rich parents. But it sounds like you work as a developer and are motivated. That's almost exactly my back story as well. Now I'm graduating and going to work in finance...and I paid for my college out of state from a company I started in high school. I think your story is actually worse bc the way you represent it, you don't have the means to be a "true" Cent baller.
