The only way he would’ve ever been able to get something like that is through some type of inheritance. He continuously makes up lies to cover his insecurities, I think we can all see that. He wasn’t winded from running up stairs, he just worked out then immediately found his way to the top of a parking garage, and by the time he got there he hadn’t had time to catch his breath yet, it’s very plausible and real story. He also tracks his macros for his health which is always either the key sign of a poor, or someone who is very health conscious but as we all see, he’s probably 75 pounds overweight. The dividend portfolio is now even less believable since he says it’s bigger, oh he was day trading now, then he was sports betting, this is the same guy who despite what he will claim, is visibly shaken after losing standard hands for almost no money. As someone who is involved with sports betting there are massive swings even with proper bankroll management, not using one off 4k bets or whatever he described. My first year we went from 75k profit to 25k profit right before Covid shut down in about a month using I think $400 bets on player props which are a pretty soft market with lots of bets able to be done quickly that have a big edge so swings are less severe in theory than game bets, especially because player props a lot of the time have correlations, aka if Lebron scores 40, it’s less likely AD also does because there’s only one ball, etc, we recovered during bubble playoffs but have swings like that every so often even still, cost of doing business. All of these lies are along the same line of thinking of someone who would say that even though he had all these coolers he still only lost x amount, they are all about ego and making people not see him as a failure, which of course he is one.
Also I think the parents being educators is a key component of what I’ve thought for a long time. That he is basically a moron. I would bet alot of money he has an iq below 100 but just to be safe I’ll say 105 (I understand iq isn’t actually truly an accurate representation of intelligence). It never made sense that he went to Cornell or whatever it was, we all thought the same thing, mostly because we all kindve realize he isn’t very smart, but thought he got in from parents being alumni or paying for it, but college admissions are easy to game, and it makes sense his parents were able to help him sneak in even with his lack of intelligence. Now to go from any Ivy League school to Nebraska law school is just a crazy leap, Nebraska obviously a dog **** school for anyone to go to, but law school especially is easy to get into, law degrees are a dime a dozen in general. So to me it makes sense that he got into Cornell or whatever one it was, for some reason I keep thinking it was a different school but doesn’t really matter for what I’m saying, and then wasn’t very good at anything and to continue at law school had to go to a super crap school. Now his understanding of math related things and things associated with math aka finance are also a big key because he doesn’t understand the basic components of dividends which is clear from his explanations. Again, companies give profit to shareholders, either in the form of dividends, in which case the share price will drop to reflect that, or by the price of shares increasing, day 1 Econ 101 stuff even I learned barely paying attention. To fundamentally not understand that I think it’s pretty telling. So anyway that’s my theory on diesel. Now he does have a good memory which is an indicator of intelligence so could be a hole in my theory. However math also is, and he’s not good at math, or math related things aka finance, gambling. It is hard to stress how easy it is to win 20-30 an hour in my opinion at 1-2, I struggle to believe someone good at math couldn’t do it, when the strategy is basic game theory stuff. He doesn’t want to play above 1-2 because he doesn’t need to, players above 1-2 don’t have fun, he makes enough money at 1-2 and who would be interested in making more money to give yourself more time and freedom later when you retire in 1/10th of the time??? I’d much rather play 1-2 for 10 more years and make less than 1 year of playing 2-5 at the Wynn where you can make 150k+ a year at 2-5 in a very comfortable and engaging environment with all these rich people, which is why the Wynn is so great. Oh but also needs to get a job dealing that pays very little and it’s a huge windfall for him. Got it.
Also I didn’t make the website, but think you guys over estimate how easy that is able to be done. I bet it took me more time to write this on my phone laying in bed than it did to make that website and that website probably cost less than $5. I thought it was a funny troll, and no big deal personally
