Walt Winkelman WATCH OUT! Chicago Illinois

He has taken to calling himself. Dr. W. now, presumeably to hide the fact that he is really Walt Winkelman, who is supposed to be a con man.

I think he is pathetic.

So he was born in Minnesota and not Chicago as claimed.

I wouldn't expect a straight story from him about ANYTHING.
.
Personality profiling is a hobby of mine and I DO have more than a diploma mill/online ripoff education to back me up.

And since this guy looks like he is of my generation, I was interested and all I can do is say what a poor job he is doing of conning people.

He has no streetsmarts or even country clever about his M.O.

Think Bill Ayers without the support of his Dad's vast financial empire and and you have this Winkelman guy.

Apparently he attended a regular college back in the day of student radicals, free love, dope and all the rest of it, resulting in a wasted mind and he probably dropped out  whether through financial hardship or believing the hype about living  a counterculture lifestyle, who can tell? Those were very strange times back then.

I wonder if Timothy Leary or some other professorial role model influenced him because I see a propensity for him to use some sort of academic references when he cons.

Maybe he was mentored by some radical professor. There were plenty of those guys around and if they didn't self destruct, they caused a lot of kids to take the wrong path.

Whatever, it is sad and obvious that he wants to be a professor without actually doing the academic work with real colleges and universities to get his PhD. I think he did too many drugs but it could be something else.  You can NOT drink alcohol like a pig and smoke mind-altering chemicals and stay out all night at love-ins (orgies) and maintain a decent Grade Point Average. And I think that is what wiped out Winkelman's legitimate academic career.

he had no self-discipline or control of himself to get what he wanted legitimately.

I further suspect that he may never have had a "real" job for very long or functioned outside of the student setting which is why he is doing academic credential based cons. It is all he knows and is familiar with.

he is forever lost in the 1960s-1970s as you can see in the photo I posted of him with those two girls. He looks like a relic from that ti.me who never grew up or grew out of it.

Look up Psychopath on the net and look up Antisocial Personality.

He must have been dumber than most and actually took the LSD from the look I see in his eyes and may still be smoking weed.

Yes, he is a rip off.

reminds me a lot of Ted Bundy the serial killer without the murders.
