Gonna do a very Reddit thing and regurgitate something I don’t know is true. I don’t want to research this man. But someone else said, again unverified, that if you watch his video, at one point he takes a 300K cash injection into his café or whatever. And that’s why he has 65K at the end, he didn’t earn 65K from nothing, he lost 235K from his starting amount of 300K.
Ah, the millionaire who went homeless as a marketing stunt to set up a coffee company and made $65k total even with all those connections and without having to pay for medical cover or fucking housing.
I guess the “social experiment” didn’t yield the result he was expecting.
I’m sure that he, in the true spirit of scientific endeavour, will fundamentally change his views on the capitalist economic system and the hierarchies of wealth and poverty it creates.
He didn’t even experience real homelessness. The fear that comes from having no safety net at all, wondering how many times you’re going to eat that week, being in chronic pain but having no way to address it, Only sleeping a few hours a night for days on end cause it’s too damn cold an you keep getting chased off. Simply knowing that if it ever really get to much you can go back to comfort doesn’t let you experience the true terror of knowing your only way out might be in box.
