## 3. PROMISES BY GARY — KEPT/BROKEN

| Date | Promise | Status |
|------|---------|--------|
| 4/30/25 | "ill figure it out today" (domains + phone) | BROKEN — deferred, deadline missed |
| 5/2/25 | Rent help, "few options, just hang in" | BROKEN — 7 weeks until money came |
| 5/12/25 | $500 tomorrow | UNCLEAR |
| 5/21/25 | "Domains I'll confirm and transfer today" | DELAYED (Greg dependency) |
| 6/23/25 | "today i have money come" | **KEPT** |

| 8/28/25 | 2000 deposit "next day or two" | UNCLEAR — never confirmed |
| 9/11/25 | Savannakhet contract before "next Thursday" | UNCLEAR |
| **3/17/26** | **Daily 5-min calls (standing agreement)** | **BROKEN — acknowledged, not fixed** |
| 4/27/26 | Backlog docs ready "that morning" | NOT MET (rain, ceremony, delays) |
| 4/29/26 | "30 minutes" → call | BROKEN (slipped to silence) |

**Pattern:** capacity overload + cash-flow insolvency rather than overt bad faith — but the net effect on Sam is identical: chronic non-payment, broken scheduling, asymmetric burden.

## 8. OPEN DISPUTES / UNRESOLVED AT END

**Financial:** domain costs never reimbursed; chronic rent arrears pattern (recurring, only patch-fixed); SFE 2000 deposit unconfirmed; Savannakhet 5% deposit unconfirmed; employee $200 (since 6/1/25) unpaid; 5 suppliers unpaid; 70M kip medical debt.
**Operational:** Facebook ownership transfer never completed by Greg; greg@ email caused tax-dept court letter; consolidated documentation package (contracts/terminations/employee details/bank statements) still incomplete at 4/30/26 ("Cannot send now").
**Trust:** daily-5-min-call agreement broken (3/17/26); chronic meeting stand-ups; emotional reset 4/29/26 stabilized but fragile.

## SUMMARY

13.5 months documenting a partnership under permanent cash-flow crisis. Gary promised/delayed at least ~$2,000+ in direct support to Sam while Sam kept all infrastructure alive, recruited staff, built invoicing/branding, and gave personal support through Gary's near-fatal crash. Pattern reads as **operational insolvency + communication breakdown**, not provable deliberate fraud — important framing for what gets published.
