First of all, she first said that she would be supportive of his financial situation and said she was empathetic of his setbacks. She even said it was frustrating when Wayne keeps everything inside. And then, the second he lets her in and tells her that he made a mistake (he admitted it was stupid) by investing $2000 USD into crypto, she gets disproportionately angry about it and storms off, telling him that he doesn’t understand the severity of this.
All that did was ensure that Wayne keeps everything inside going forward and never shares anything with her again.
That was in South African money. Converted to United States dollars, CAD or AUD, it’s $2,000-2,300.
I don’t know why they neglect to do the currency conversion on the screen sometimes, and yet sometimes they don’t.
A good possibility is that they do the conversion on screen when it will make the plot more sensational. But when clarifying the currency doesnt add to the drama, they leave it be .
For example, with Mary and Brandon, they put the currency conversion presumably to spell out how ridiculous their business plan was.
But on the other hand, when Wayne said that he, “dumped 40 K into crypto”, they just left that as it is, because they knew the assumption would be more sensational than the reality
Now I’m understanding why Mohammed was so mad and bitter at the 90 day fiancé producers. He kept saying how they didn’t portray the story correctly, and they countered with, “these are all things that you did, Muhammad“
Meanwhile, we can see right here, even through their tactful editing, how they do everything in their power to make us see things the way they want us to .
They definitely did do the screen conversions for most of their segments for both the South African money and the square feet fiasco.
The Mary and Brandon $60, insanity.
