Third Party Sources
that testify to the Character, Credibility and Integrity of
Winston Wu
Hello. This is Winston Wu. I created this page for anyone who wishes to
check or verify my character, credibility, integrity or trustworthiness through
third party sources. As a debunker and exposer of BS (see my debunking articles
here), I know that talk is cheap and that anybody can say anything. I’ve been burned many times before, and I’m sure
many of you have too, so no smart person should believe everything they
hear. Common sense must be
exercised. And of course, it always
helps to be a good judge of character. I
believe that one ought to be able to back up what they say rather than just
expect others to take their word for it.
Since I never believe a stranger’s word alone, I would never expect you
to do so either. I respect your
intelligence and common sense.
So when valid evidence or a track record is available, a reasonable person
can take those into account.
Anyhow, if you are new to me and not well acquainted, what I can offer
you are third party sources and references about me for you to check. I trust that you will find them useful and
revealing. Here is a list of them, with
links and info.
Ebay
I have been doing business on Ebay.com
for years now, and have a 100 percent positive feedback rating from
sellers and buyers. Anyone can verify
this by looking up my Ebay user name “WWu777” on Ebay’s main site at http://www.ebay.com. You don’t even need an account to view a
user’s feedback rating. Here is the
direct link to my profile, from which you can view my perfect feedback score: http://myworld.ebay.com/wwu777
. That signifies that I am trustworthy and follow through on transactions.
Travel Accommodation Exchange
Websites
For some years, I have been using free accommodation websites like HospitalityClub.org and CouchSurfing.com during my travels, and
have hosted other travelers as well.
These sites have feedback systems where you can check a member’s
character references by other members who have met them. You can check the good comments about me on
my CouchSurfing profile by looking up my user name
“WWu777”. Here is the direct link. http://www.couchsurfing.com/people/wwu777 (See the bottom right corner of that
page). As to my HospitalityClub
profile (same username) though, only members are allowed to view it
directly. If you are not a member and do
not wish to become one, I’ve saved a copy of my feedback comments page and
uploaded it to this link here: http://www.happierabroad.com/HospitalityClub_feedback.htm. There you will see over a dozen sincere and
positive comments and impressions of my character from many different people
around the world.
Character References from Friends
and Acquaintances
Here are a list of character references from both friends and
acquaintances about me that you can see at the bottom of this page by simply
scrolling down. They are sourced where possible.
Credit Rating
As you might know, prospective employers sometimes screen their
candidates by checking their credit rating, which is considered a measure of
responsibility and reliability. Retailers
do as well when they need to decide whether to allow customers to make
purchases on credit or in installments.
So, if you wish to check mine, contact major credit bureaus like Equinox
or whatever, to check my credit rating for “Winston Wu”. There are also some online services to check
a person’s credit rating, but I think they charge a fee. If you do, you will see that I have an
excellent credit rating (evidenced by all the regular offers for new credit
cards I get in the mail!).
Established Reputation as a Champion
of Truth
From my sites, articles and ebooks over the
years, I have established a reputation as a “Champion of Truth”. You can see this in my list of debunking and critical thinking
articles here. There you will also
see that one of my primary interests and fields of study is Religion and
Spirituality. Now I’m sure you realize
that a person who studies those kind of things are
among the LEAST likely in the world to lie or scam others.
Also see these Quotes
about me from others and in my huge Fan Letter
Archive. I’m sure that you can
surmise that a “Champion of Truth”, it would be against my nature to defraud,
mislead or BS anyone.

OR, close friend since 2001, veteran writer, critical thinker, radio show co-host, and media
critic
- "Winston is a kind
and fun person. Even my son likes him." - Amber LaMond
- "Winston - an
Engaging personality! Met Winston at a social event, and was won over by
his open, friendly nature, and ability to converse on a deeper plane than
most. He is a really fun guy to be around - there is never a dull moment
with Winston! He is a prolific and articulate writer, and his homepage is
a site for sore eyes :) He is equally comfy talking to someone 1-1
as well as regaling groups of people with his world-wide adventures. Winston
is definitely someone I'd love to be friends with, and hope to run into
again." - The late Kumar, good friend and Microsoft employee from India
- "I am Mick Dean;
musician, freelance writer and in the security field in the Seattle
Northwest. Met with my working buddy, "Winston" getting to know
him was easy, as he is open quickly to breaking barriers. One of my first
impressions of him is his "critical thinking". Winston's ideas
and opinions ran deep and with much intelligent commentaries of the
progressing current events that continue to this day. We did quite well in
our work and became friends easily, as he has an attitude of optimism
toward the future that is hard to find. We formed a circle with other
friends that like to have fun and party in and outside of a very troubled
country. His written expressions are carefully articulated from his many
experiences that we all should learn from in order to make for a better
life. Those who venture outside America
for dating and professional activity will find that it is happier abroad.

happened. And like him, you don't just talk about it, you DO IT." -

GA, friend and man of few compliments

wish him the very best and hope to see him again soon." - Erin,
