You decide who wins $20,000 and appears in Variety magazine as America’s Favorite Couple
I was let go from my job, lost my apartment, and car broke down and phone broke within 72 hours last March 2024. I was staying at 24 hours fitness throughout the night because I had nowhere else to go. About three days into me staying at 24 hours, Fanny walked into the hot tub when I was there and I said "hola Hermosa" (hi beautiful). I learned Spanish in high school and she is Peruvian. She had only been in America about 10 days when I met her. We became friends and let me sleep in her RV.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?We went to Scottsdale Arizona for our honeymoon that I got invited for free because I am a golf professional and I helped the person that invited us get fitted for custom golf clubs.
What would you do with $20,000?I would use some for the immigration fees to legalize my wife in America. And visit Fannys home country Peru and meet her family. Get schooling for Fanny to learn English. And down payment for a car that is desperately needed. Whatever is left, pay off debts and finally start savings.
