  • Today we’re sitting down with Dan Blizerian. Dan Bilzerian is a venture capitalist & author who has carved out a name for himself as a high-stakes professional poker champion, adrenaline seeker, & Instagram sensation. His lifestyle, love for danger, and careless attitude have earned him international acclaim & today he tells us everything. From what his childhood was like & his experience with bullying, to how he got rich in the gambling industry & what it’s like to live a day in his life. He discusses his experience with women, the strategies he uses to pick up girls & why he chooses to date multiple women at a time. We also see a vulnerable side & he gives us the truth about his feelings regarding his reputation, what he has to say to the people who hate him, and why he allows people to underestimate him. We round off the episode by discussing his book The Set Up and the difference between pleasure and happiness.

    I think good relationships come from two people that actually 100% want a relationship with each other. This want is not something you can choose. It is determined by your upbringing and genetics. Many people are just stuck in relationships they fell into (they were lonely or depressed and felt they had no future options, or the fear mongering about being old and alone etc).

    Why take life advice from a guy who owes his entire success and existence to his rich, criminal dad stealing millions of dollars from people and then 'gifting' it to his son to avoid having to pay fines? If this guy didn't have his rich dad he'd have burned out years ago. Lies about his Navy Seal credentials, lies about his Poker career, makes an active shooting situation even worse by distracting police officers - just a complete joke.
    If you've got kids that are following this guy, take an hour out of your day to research all his failings and family and then sit down with your kids and try to set them on a better path - there's no joy to be found in pursuing this guy.
