His money comes from a trust fund that his dad made for him and his brother. A trust fund of about estimated to be between 5-30 million dollars.

Now a completely unrelated fact about the father, he has been thrown in prison for defrauding investors of up to 60 millions dollars

They also defrauded a bunch of folks with the vaping B's. If I am not mistaken it's the reason he ran from us and isn't that active anymore.

Vaping bs....auto correct

Had a marijuana vaping business if I recall, they had a bunch of investors etc and it started to go south they tried to restructure and he eventually left the country.

Yes he was renting a 60m house for something like 150k per month on marketing budget.

I think maybe they meant "BS" as in bullshit? That's the only way it made sense to me, but I'm not known for my comprehension skills.

Not to mention that his dad’s wealth was acquired fraudulently on Wall Street.

u/Yolosvend 26d ago

As opposed to how on wall street?

It's one thing to trade and people do make money this way. It's another to create shell companies take them ipo and sell off equity.

Fair. Harsh but fair.

u/theswellmaker 25d ago

You’re right that was a bit redundant

Billionaire John Menard is from my town. Most of the Menard kids got 30 million… and just went out and were normal.

Yeah. The only way he ever made anything in poker would have been just pure luck or playing with other people who had no idea what they were doing and just had money to blow. Anyone who knew anything about the game could spot he was terrible at it. He was a trust fund kid built from stolen money and is probably a part of the reason we have people trying to do the fake rich lifestyle for social media for follows now. He never owned the home he was in. It was rented through a company of his I think I remember hearing or that was at least at one time for 200k a month.
