145-Year-Old Man Claiming To Be World’s Oldest Human Ready To Die An Indonesian man claiming to be the world’s oldest human is just ready to die reports Independent UK : The world’s oldest man has been named as Indonesian Mbah Gotho, who is 145 years old, with documentation that says he was born in 1870. Mr Gotho said he began preparing for his death in 1992, even having a gravestone made, but 24 years later he is still alive. He has now outlived all 10 of his siblings, his four wives and his children. Though his age is impressive, Mr Gotho told a regional news network: “What I want is to die.” For the past three months he has needed to bathed and spoon-fed, and is becoming increasingly frail. Mr Gotho has official documentation which shows his age, and the Indonesian records office says it has confirmed his birth date as December 31 1870. If this is correct, this would earn him the title of the oldest person ever, a title currently held by French centenarian Jeanne Calment, who was 122 when she died – 23 years younger than Mr Gotho. Lawd, let this man just die in peace! YT

Lauren Holiday, Jrue’s Wife, Found To Have Brain Tumor New Orleans Pelicans point guard Jrue Holiday was hit with awful news about his wife, retired soccer star Lauren Holiday. The young couple, whom are six months pregnant, were shocked when doctors found a benign tumor in Lauren’s brain. The baby is not due for another few weeks but word is they’re planning to induce labor early so the doctors can operate on her brain without affecting the baby. Jrue said that the Pelicans organization has given him a lot of support during this rough time. Via PEOPLE NBA star Jrue Holiday will not be there to start the New Orleans Pelicans’ 2016-2017 season. Instead, he will be by his wife Lauren Holiday’s side. The Holidays were left devastated when they received news that doctors had discovered a benign tumor on the right side of Lauren’s brain, according to NOLA.com. Lauren, who is an retired soccer star, was about six months pregnant at the time of the diagnosis, and while the tumor is operable and not a threat to their unborn daughter’s health, it needs to be removed. “My family comes before basketball,” Jrue, 26, told NOLA.com. “I’m obviously blessed to play this game and be in the position I am in, but my wife is the most important thing in the world to me. She comes before anything else.” He also commented on how the diagnosis has affected the upcoming birth of their daughter. “Obviously, we were and are still very excited about the birth of our first child, but our focus shifted from having this magnificent blessing to making sure everything is going to be OK with Lauren and the child,” Jrue told NOLA.com. “Our priorities right now are being able to manage Lauren’s symptoms and still have a fairly healthy pregnancy.” Lauren, 28, is due in mid-October, but the couple is hoping to induce the birth so doctors can operate on Lauren as soon as possible, NOLA.com reported. Doctors are planning to operate six weeks after Lauren gives birth, according to NOLA.com. “Lauren has her good days and her bad days; some are better than others,” Jrue said in the interview. “She’s obviously a fighter, the toughest woman I know. That’s the reason why I married her.” Jrue added that his team has been incredibly supportive of his decision to take a leave of absence. “The Pelicans have been great,” Jrue said. “There wasn’t any pressure to be with the team or to choose between my team and my wife. They told me to be a husband first. I don’t think they know how much their support means to me and my family.” Our prayers and good vibes are being sent to the Holiday family.
Music Producer Owed $4.3 Million In Debts Scott Storch can breathe a little easier about his financial situation after a federal court judge discharged the majority of his more than $4 million debt in his bankruptcy, which means most of his money problems have been wiped clean. Last year, Storch – who was once worth an estimated $70 million for his work in producing music for Beyonce, Justin Timberlake and many more – filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy, and claimed he had less than $4,000 in assets to his name. His assets include $100 cash, $500 in clothing, a watch worth $3,000, several music companies valued at $0 and no other property. But his liabilities came out to $4,393,679, including $105,000 owed on an automobile, $46,000 in legal bills, thousands unpaid to collection agencies, a $1.5 million judgment plus another $2.1 million judgment from lawsuits, $68,000 to Mandatory Entertainment, $294 to a collection attorney for Direct TV, $22,000 the state of Florida for unpaid taxes and various other creditors. Storch listed his occupation as musician/producer and claimed to bring in $4,000 a month. But he said he spent $1,200 on food and household supplies, $400 on childcare and education costs, $100 on clothing and dry cleaning, $200 on personal care products, $250 on medical bills, $400 on transportation and $800 on entertainment – leaving him with $650 after he pays all his expenses. The music producer hit financial troubles back in 2009 and filed for Chapter 13 bankruptcy claiming he had assets in the $0-50,000 range but liabilities in the $50,000-$100,000 range. The case was dismissed because Storch didn’t fill out the required documents in the bankruptcy. Back in the early 2000’s the music producer was worth an estimated $70 million dollars, but he said he went broke because of a raging cocaine habit and living the high life. He also lost his mega-mansion to foreclosure and was slapped with numerous lawsuits over unpaid bills. Then on August 30th, Storch finally got some good news about his finances with the federal court judge discharging his massive debts. The order will wipe clean the majority of his $4.3 million debt, with exceptions being most back taxes, child support obligations and other debts related to criminal restitution or fines. Storch has been given a fresh start to rebuild his finances but the case will continue on with the trustee figuring out how to pay back his many creditors.
