Lately every0ne online is talking about ‘getting rich’ and making so much money but will it make you happy? Gary Vaynerchuk is always going on about ‘get rich’ so you can buy things like private jets and private islands. He sells anything he can to the people that are dumb enough to eat up this dream like their life is worthless till they own a football team.
Fuck All That Shit
It won’t make you feel any better inside and it will most likely make you feel worse. With more money comes more problems. What makes us know this? Studying the many people that have walked in the ‘rich lifestyle shoes’. Just look at one of the worlds first porn kings Scott Phillips. Scott was born in Queensland, Australia and by his early 20’s he was making over a million dollars a year. He was dating a penthouse pet model and fucking all her female friends while they were all taking copious amounts of drugs. He was shooting meth almost every day. He was living in a big house and also owned a beach mansion that was one of Australia’s most expensive homes. He drove a black Ferrari and was one of the Cleo most eligible bachelors for the year in 1999. You would think he was pretty happy at the time, wouldn’t you? Well, he will tell you this was the most miserable period of his life.
How To Make $1m a Year?
To make a million dollars a year Scott Phllips was conducting many different business’s. These included running a successful porn website called pinkbits.com. He was also delving into the darker side of life by dealing drugs and operating as a loan shark. His fall from grace was spectacular and he ended up doing a couple of good sized stints in jail.
Scott was fined $2m for running a dating scam. It is claimed that backpackers were recruited to set up fake profiles on dating websites. These were done in order to obtain mobile phone numbers. From there these numbers were used to mass spam premium SMS offers to. These premium messages costed the user $5 per message and made the scheme operators millions. This is just one of the many schemes Scott was involved in. The man would be classed as a genius but unfortunately he broke the law by doing this.
He has now got himself clean and runs a successful share trading advice business and lives in Thailand and is now the happiest he has been in his lifetime. His net worth is a fraction of what it was when he was a porn king but he doesn’t even care in the slightest. How long before people stop listening to people like Gary V. and Grant Cardone and others that promote money as a way of happiness in life?
