He got ate up with margin calls though and missed out on potentially MILLIONS because of it. He’s gone busto or close to it several times. He got tied up in the GameStop/meme frenzy and when Robin Hood shut down trading he went nuts and even drove to California to protest outside Robin Hood HQ. He eventually started building a roll back in his portfolio and got lucky on a speculative crypto investment and ran it up to just over $1M. He didn’t lock it up and eventually lost about 70% of it before finally cashing out. He took the proceeds and paid cash for a house, leaving himself with practically nothing. He’s continued to grind poker,has built custom putting greens and painted custom basketball courts since then and has split up and got back together with his wife and they currently are back together in a house he bought last year. He’s in the process of building a pickle ball court and is documenting the progress.
lol, "pickle ball" , the game for people too slow or out of shape for tennis, squash, badminton, handball, racquet ball, table tennis, four-square, double-dutch, etc.
