Okay so I listened to that podcast where he talks about 'million dollars in debt' thing, here's a recap:
- his voice is annoying
- he met the host of the podcast in Bahli, her voice annoying too
- he speaks in 'deep & inspirational' cliche quotes, basically talks a bunch without actually saying anything, just like Niomi's 'deep' ig captions, no wonder she likes him
- started several businesses, businesses include organizing underage club parties (doesn't sound great but made huge money - his words, not mine) & working with brands like McDonald's & Coca Cola (sounds great but actually small profit)
- says brands tortured them with the amount of work they gave them (hello Nims & others taking advantage of mee), he regrets 'prioritizing' working with brands over event stuff 'cause it had smaller profit (mind you, event stuff included exploiting teens drinking but to each their own I guess)
- got too cocky, thought he was killing it but turns out his he wasn't delivering the work he should've, his boss pulled him aside and said 'buddy you're not actually that good, in fact you're IN DEBT' which crushed his ego, he lost his swagger (again his words, not mine)
- casually mentions he had a lot attention from women (which went away when he lost the money)
- lost friends, lost his reputation, had to sell his car, moved back in with his parents (same parents who tried to warn him about his attitude but he was like 'ehm what do you know, I'm way more successful than you ever were'), his mom had to give him an allowance (he was around 26 at that point)
- took him 5 years to get back on his feet & pay off the debt
- got sick from all the stress (kidney stones, colitis, problems with memory etc) so he had to reach out to someone for help.. who did he reach out to, surely a therapist? Nope, a holistic stress person, dieticians, all sort of different coaches etc etc...
- because his business was a spectacular fail, he thinks he's the perfect mentor for other entrepreneurs (?)
- last question in the podcast: "what makes you happy?", his answer: "Me!"
That's it, a little background to our Lordon (if they broke up already and I listened to that podcast for nothing I'm gonna kill her!)
