    Its crazy how he is talking about money laundering and tax evasion and somehow people are turning it into a meme and think hes a victim. "I didnt want my sponsor money taxed so i put it as venture capital into this company and hoped they paid me back even though i sold majority ownership and didnt have a contract with them anymore"

    I don't even understand how ludwig is not noticing $3M of missing income over just a couple of years, surely there was a couple big sponsors in there, he never noticed he wasnt paid for them? He's breaded but surely not that breaded.
    Did he never look at a balance sheet or were they faked? Given that its worker owned, surely the employees have access to the broad-strokes numbers too, right? Missing tax payments too... I don't understand, do they not have an accountant? And the person who figured this out was Aiden who doesn't even work there. It's too much to be incompetence, but what is the motive if they never embezzled money for themselves and just used it to make offbrand seem more successful?

      He’s said before he doesn’t know how to check his bank account. The idea is he pays people to worry about that stuff for him so he can spend his time on making content which is what he’s good at. My guess is it showed up as income, so when he looked at the balance sheet every quarter it showed they had money and he said great.
      What was the motivation? This person wanted to keep them and their friends collecting a paycheck. Maybe they thought it would turn around.

      ​@@Kvothe4 sounds like he's hired multiple people who have failed to do the most basic, day-one aspects of their jobs or have knowingly deceived him for years. It doesn't take longer than a minute to check if you've received a payment, and another minute to text an assistant to follow it up. When you're working with this much money and have so many employees you cannot be this hands off and naïve
