bob does not live on 4121 birch elmo rd.
bob is broke, making it, but broke. there was no stash, that he kept. he is very very arrogant, and still acts like he owns the old wellspring farm, but he doesnt. he didn't recieve a penny for it. he can't be half as smart as he thinks he is. if he was he would of handled his money a lot differently. like working on paying off some land or biuldings, etc. before expanding his institution. instead he mastered the art of financing more things, and made payments on everything. he never really owned much. but he acts like he does, b/c he is so cocky, and arrogant. bottom line...he cannot manage money or the "wellspring institution" would not of shut down SO quickly, it was operating on a paycheck to paycheck basis. that is why it shut down so quickly, when clients funds werent coming in. the attitude that he is a big shot caught up with him. the truth is there is wrong on both sides. there is no doubt that bob and wellspring helped many people, there was no abuse, just angry punk kids who needed someone to keep them in line, and they are mad because they were kept somewhere that didnt put up with stuff their parents did. there is also no doubt that bob kept parents money, and it was wrong. they will never get it back. you cant get blood from a stone. the staff was way overpaid and everything was financed, it was a disaster waiting to happen. an insitution with that much money coming in should not of crumbled that quickly, the $$ was not handled correctly...plain and simple. what is ironic, is that people pay bob to council him, when it is him who needs to be counciled

Some of the staff were grossly overpaid. Some were paid reasonably. Some were grossly underpaid. I know first hand.

I'm so sorry that so many of you are in pain because of Bob Gluhareff. He was once such a great counselor to kids. I know, because I had him as a teacher/counselor in high school. He listened to us when other adults would not. He could always be counted on to be discreet, and honest in the advice he gave. He was a friend to those of us who were struggling with home lives that lacked guidance and sanity.
I know I have not heard both sides, but I have heard enough. I looked Bob up because now I have a daughter who is in need of a non-biased listening ear. But thanks to all of you and the free flow of information online, I'll be looking elsewhere.
What happened to you, Bob? Where is the man I knew when I was a teen?
