So how rich is Tai Lopez anyways? All those Youtube ads plus he's renting huge properties and Lambourginis all the time. None of that is cheap. So he's rich enough to at least look really rich.

you can rent a nice house and nice cars for less than 1k a day combine I'm pretty sure...that's not cheap, but it definitely isn't fuck me money rich

You fucking idiots, running ads are so fucking cheap, you can get like 1 million ads for a few thousand dollars

He gets lots of money from books he reviews as well

He's basically a YouTuber, that's making thousands upon thousands of dollars per video, on average his channel makes around $5k, because of his subscribers and his view count.

He's making money all the time, he's probably spending 20% of his money, on the "image" and the rest 80% of his profits, he gets to keep.

>> No.944613

All in the service of looking rich, though.
To perpetuate his gimmick/image he's probably funneling a decent % of what he earns into properties/vehicles, effectively boosting his stature to the viewing audience.
He lives pretty near me. Here, you can rent a house for about 6 or 7K a month, but where he is it's probably closer to 8 or 9K.

Doesn't youtube only pay if the ad gets a certain amount of time viewed or that the ad has to be started?

I'm convinced he made all of his videos in one day, it even seems like he wears the same shirt for alot of the videos

The people who fall for him are the same ones who get into pyramid schemes. Apparently he is always vague about how he got all his money

Tai Lopez gambled a lot of money on his YouTube marketing campaign.

Something weird about him is that he claims his parents are from Clayton, NC which is false. His FB account wasn't created until 2013 which is about when his marketing started.

>> No.945550

He is from North Carolina, that isn't a lie. He ran his previous dodgy business from there. Tal Promotions LLC.

Parents are:

& Ernesto LOPEZ (1952 )

Mother moved to California. Father is in Florida.

I'm sure he has made a bit of money luring the mentally ill into buying his self-help book/seminar style videos over the internet.

Nice dubs.

Also, I couldn't possibly agree more. Life requires that people take bold risks in order to get ahead. Some people spend their entire lives just playing it safe, and while that's certainly better than wasting all your money in slot machines, you'll never be a millionaire by the time your 50, with such an outlook.

You literally took the words right out of my mouth. While their are definitely some sketchy businesses out there, people seem to be really judge mental about things they don't really understand. The words "multilevel marketing" take on a powerfully negative connotation, that resulted in the failure of many legitimate small businesses such as HerbalLife.

This cynical skepticism makes me want to vomit.

I remember seeing him on Millionaire Matchmaker on TV. If you can find it online somewhere, you will laugh and cringe. I'm sure he went to great lengths to get this offline.

Dude was autistic as fuck and had a nearly gay relationship with his friend. Socially awkward and needless to say all the gold diggers passed him up.
