What else would you blame it on? It keeps the people poor and desperate.

It's kind of a touching story...but tear-worthy? I don't think so.

Hate the circumstance but real happy to see a kid hustle and get something done. Wanted to run businesses since I was 3. Wouldn't trade it for much. This will do wonders for the confidence of that little girl.

Someone dead at 29 is not typical. Could be circumstances beyond control such as genetic diseases or some car accidents, or it could be something like a drug overdose.

The monument being donated is likely cold dead inventory because people aren't into buying such things any more.

Monuments are part of the reason I went through lawsuit hell last year.

Not necessarily...what I saw is people paying/donating money for the cause...way more than the product was worth....then, the stone was donated.
Will she go through life expecting similar results when she tackles a project?
This could set her up to have her expectations crushed.

Good points. Let's hope she is aware the original result wasn't typical and has perseverance to fail forward when confronted by adversity.
