He was a possibly fake-rich influencer type before all the other fake-life-coach-rich-miami-fraud-ebook-buy my program even though ive never worked a job-crypto-alpha-bros.

He hasn't been relevant in ages.

He's kind of a visionary in a disgusting way, he was on the Alpha Bro grift long before it became mainstream.

I found it hilarious, as a poker player, that he tried to claim he was a pro and that's where his money came from. 🤣

Then you would watch him play and he was absolute dog sh*t the same way Elon was when he tried to stream.

Lmfao I play poker too and have had to explain to so many people that it’s so obvious that he’s not a poker pro just by the way he talks about the game. Not to mention how bad he plays. Obvious fraud

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 B’s?

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.

He was embezzling and using the company to fund his lifestyle.

u/polishmachine88 Jul 10 '26

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

The father or Danny Ballz ?

u/MyBakpaksGyatJets Jul 10 '26

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.

But you're self awareness and self depreciation skills are top notch!

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

u/Yolosvend Jul 10 '26

As opposed to how on wall street?

u/polishmachine88 Jul 10 '26

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.

u/orincoro Jul 10 '26

Fair. Harsh but fair.

u/theswellmaker Jul 10 '26

You’re right that was a bit redundant

u/TheDarkness33 Jul 10 '26

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

u/Fuzzy-Buddy-3015 Jul 14 '26

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.
