The Platinum Meritorious award given to Richie & Amy Acunto is up for auction on Ebay.

Just recently I purchased a storage unit of Richie & Amy Acunto, Prominent Scientologists. This and my other Scientology items were located in the unit. This is probably the first and last chance you would have to buy these rare items. Please feel free to view all my other listings. Thanks and happy bidding!!

The award measures 13?w x 13.5?d x 20?t

It is very heavy, The award measures 40lbs, the special made case weighs 33 lbs.

I cannot tell you exactly what it is made of, Looks to be a marble base, The metal is slightly magnetic, so maybe plated.
​

Among the other items in the storage unit were tapes of the ACCs (Advanced Clinical Courses) and a Philadelphia Doctorate Course cabinet.

From a post by Marty Rathbun:

For those who don’t know, Survival Insurance made millions by catering to Scientologists. When they started they pretty much ripped off the short-lived, but then (eighties) popular Survival Rundown trademark.

Survival CEO Richie Acunto became one of the elite of the Miscavige elite public. In 2007 he completed his rarified IAS status by paying TEN MILLION dollars to the IAS.

Is it any surprise that four years later Survival Insurance has filed for bankruptcy?

Just a thought......that "preservation of the tech" project was started long before GAT I. So wondering what Kult is gonna do? Redo all the plates?

Anyway...I'm sure they checked everything before etching or engraving the plates.....Opps.....I guess they didn't. Sounds like a confusion to me...!!


Great News....another Cult member owned business......BANKRUPT.

 

[anonomog]

If I had money to burn it would please my little heart endlessly to buy the diamond meritorius monstrosity and award it to ESMB.

 

[Elronius of Marcabia]

The bait and switch get rich quick schemes have a long standing history
inside the cult of Hubbard, Survival Insurance was just one of many.

Note to self, never buy Insurance from a guy named Richie or Guido
or Sal or ... you get the idea

 

[AnonyMary]

I am wondering if Richie and or Amy forgot to pay the storage bill, or he let it go intentionally. Looking forward to finding out more on this

Or the ebay person is simply a "cutout" (trusted intermediary facilitating a sale using a convenient shore story) helping him sell stuff he no longer wants to recoup some perhaps badly needed cash.

BWHAHAHAHA. The guy is actually basing his prices off of CoS "retail." Good luck with that pal! Unless you have a team of gang bang SO salesmen and are holding your buyer's "eternity" and access to their family and friends in your hands I don't think you'll be seeing more than a few hundred bucks for all of that crap.

But, as for the tacky IAS monster trophies, he might luck out and get the cult to buy them just to get them off the market and stop the lulz. But if not the best he will get is some anon or a fan of Tony's buying the monstrosities just for some good old trolling good times. Be great to present one to Tony Ortega or Mike Rinder for some sweet photo op action.

 

[AngeloV]

Maybe I'm missing something here but why the hell would anyone purchase an award with some other person's name on it? And especially some low-life, bankrupt degraded being? LOL

 

[strativarius]

There must be an endless number of 'good causes' which could have benefited from a share of the 2.5 million bucks the unfortunately
named Mr. Acunto paid for this garish piece of trash. Bankrupt? He deserves everything that's coming to him IMO.

Yep. Hand bound, hand tooled leather surrounding thousands of pages of pseudo-science, clap trap, hogwash, bullshit, flim-flammery and nonsense all for the low, low price of $22,499.99!!

I hope I can use my PayPal account. LOL

Have a look. Have a look again:

Did you consider that the printing could be sanded away for a new printing or a new plate glued over it ?

e.g. you could write on this plate:

ANGELO V
has achieved the status of
SANE PERSON
because he didn´t waste $ 5,000.000,--
to obtain this statue​

Afterwards you could put the statue here in this beauty salon in LA:

What a fun....

 

[AnonyMary]

Looks like Richie and Amy Acunto are divorced. I searched under marriages in CA for him, knowing that any divorces would pop up. Sure enough...
1.WALKER, AMY SEANESS / ACUNTO, RICHARD JOSEPH CALIFORNIA DIVORCE RECORD https://knowx.com/mr/search.jsp

This may help explain why they were let go

note They also lost their home to foreclosure in 2011

[Leland]

some of those trophies would be great to take on a Protest at the Cult....

Perhaps most run of the mill SO would not know what they were by just looking at them..........

Probably Whales would recognize them...

Richie Acunto is just another tale of doom and catastrophe of an "OT VIII" who reached the highest level of spirituality at Freewinds.

Richie Acunto (Left) with Tiziano Lugli.

Bankrupt, penniless, screwing debtors, unpaid staff who worked for him for the last 2 years at Survival Insurance without pay, while the Vampire Regges (Sales people) were permitted to swoop in Thursday mornings before 2pm and rake Richie Acunto and Survival Insurance over the coals with money extortion tactics for YEARS. His partner Sue Mcfarlane dropped dead of cancer in her early 50s. Her Facebook page was quickly removed. She had reported to Flag for 20 years "on the level" to handle her *CRIMES*. She was a huge donor. The Church got everything.

Unlike Rex Fowler of Denver Colorado, Richie did not blow out the brains of his Survival Insurance Manager and there is no report that, unlike other "OT VIIIs" in touch with me, Richie did not have a mental breakdown or go boarderline Type III. He does go around with a beggar bowl to other Los Angeles Scientologists asking for money to live on.​

 

[Leland]

It would be interesting to tally up how much he donated to IAS....and or how much he spent on the "Bridge to doom"......over the years.

It would be interesting to make a time line of his rise and fall ........after becoming involved with the Cult .
