@Moon-Real By great chance you see this message -- I just got a warning from UA-cam that they will terminate my account if I don't follow comment policies. Just sent them a feedback letter essentially saying I will never be back on this shit app -- hypothetically they decide to do so. Are UA-cams policies becoming too extreme and controlling?
Its still going as well. Now you get ads trying to tell people that you can get 6.4k from a "Stimulus check" or "Why you lose every day trade". Different graft, same system pushing it.
I disagree, but there are a couple ways to look at it, 1) If the content is growing, it's because of the audience, not the algorithm. UA-cam doesn't take a cut from a Guru's course, they make a cut from advertisers, meaning the end goal of the algorithm is keeping your attention and showing you what's most likely to engage you. You wouldn't see it if you didn't engage with that niche. 2) Back when these guys blew up, they often ran ads on YT. Nobody should feel sympathetic to someone who buys into an AD. Back in the day it was timeshares on TV, nowadays it's lucrative side-hustles on the internet. No shortage of suckers in either period. We should stop blaming the boogeyman (algorithms/AI/etc...) That's the logic they WANT you to use; The reality is these platforms just give you what you're asking for. It all starts and ends with your interests and behaviors, which is then sold to everyone. People getting caught up in "get-rich-quick" scams are literally the simps of the business world, and those Gurus are just camgirls (although there are many genuine coaches/teachers/course creators who have made the walk forreal, and can genuinely give you the information you need to succeed in any particular field.)
I figured that out a long time ago when my mom would sign up for seminar after seminar yet she remained dirt poor. Even as a kid I thought, the way they're getting rich is by selling seminars claiming to teach people how to get rich.
@@concept5631 Exactly. Large platforms like UA-cam are fundamentally unable able moderate user generated content without significant costs that will put them out of business.

Tai Lopez ads were inescapable just a few years ago. He made my skin crawl - his talk about 'knowledge' and showing off his wealth - I generally cringe at anyone who claims to read one book a day - I mean firstly, where do you get the time? - Secondly, you need time to digest, enjoy the process of reading and reflect. This was obviously and is always obviously a lie told by people who never read. His shaming of anyone who wasn't a Ferrari driver was cringe and agressive.
I used to work with a dude who would always talk about how he learned speed reading and would read at least 3 books a day, one during his lunch hour. And it was all genres, not just get rich quick and self help books (though there were plenty of those), he would speed read horror,scifi, history, etc books. I'm pretty sure it wasn't true, but even if it was, like what enjoyment/pleasure do you get from whipping thru a sci fi or other genre book in an hour? It's not the actual act of reading just to read, you're supposed to read, reread sometimes, and absorb the meaning of the words. I guess if he's in a competition to read as many books as humanly possible, he wins, butb he pretty much loses in every other aspect of reading.
The most cringy were the ones from some fat Chinese/Korean guy. He’d built this cult following and it was always shots of him being driven about in a rolls or something but he looked super gross, something about his attitude to wealth
This was a good one. Im always amazed at peoples absolute lack of a bull shit detector. The way you make it in life is find out what your calling is, do what you love and measure success by your own personal happiness, fulfillment and mental peace. If this brings you a ton of financial freedom then thats the icing on the cake...not the cake itself. Until people stop attaching success solely to material wealth and status there will always be a sucker.
These fake gurus target the following people: 1. Hustler wannabes 2. People who are vulnarable to a midlife crisis 3. Materialistic people (often behaving like the ones mentioned in 1.)

I'm glad most aren't actually rich and use all their saving to rent a ferrari for one day.
A huge reason why tai’s video popped off is that he pushed people into seeing it via ads. It didnt naturally gain that many views. It was blasted all over youtube videos as a preroll ad.
Its amazing how many of these scammers were also pushed by stuff like Clickfunnels and UA-cam and other social media platforms. Its disgusting how they then start to collaborate with each other or ppl with some credibility
Keep up the good work bruv. You’ve opened my mind to a lot and you need way more credit. Thank you for exposing these narcissists,scammers and psychopaths.
Does anyone remember Amway? My buddy's parents growing up had blown over $10k and had an entire garage full of motivational tapes, videos and books from Amway stars trying to get people convinced how easy it was to just use your friends to get rich (with nothing to show for it in their own business). His family was always selling the latest multi level marketing, it was funny because all you had to do was look at their personalized plates on their car to know which product they were selling. Mellaluca, KM or Matol were other brands they sold. They were always broke. His dad would always try to pitch you regardless of the situation, so I eventually had to go no contact as it got out of hand.
My previous employers were the same, tricked me into going to a seminar once. Bunch of absolute idiots there, safe to say I got out of that job pretty quickly
The part that made me laugh the hardest about Tai Lopez's "here in my garage" video was the fact that the bookshelf itself was in the garage in front of the car instead of, you know...anywhere else in the million dollar mansion where it would be infinitely more convenient to grab a book. I already knew the guy was full of shit in terms of what he was selling, but that made it so blatantly obvious that the bookshelf itself was more of a meme than the Lamborghini, IMO.
@@thahirshibu5042 nothing. Just didn't know better. I didn't have UA-cam premium, so I didn't fully realize they were ads and I was like, that could actually work. Then I started realizing, wait, these guys look like their videos are in model apartments and they're just selling courses then I still have to do everything lol.
@@thahirshibu5042Picture this: You're a 17 year old, lazy, with no idea in what to do in life. Your parents want you to do something, but you only seem to want to play videogames or anything else all day. Then you see this guy who's a 22 year old talking smack on the internet showing off his expensive cars and lavish lifestyle, and you think to yourself "I want this, I need this life too, what's his Instagram again?". Bang, you fell into his trap. The attracting thing about them is that they speak differently than your parents or your teachers, who actually want good for you. They cuss, they talk angrily, they don't give a fuck about anything else, they managed to "crack the code" and get rich doing what the fuck they wanted to do, "just with a little adjustment." That's what entice teens and impressionable adults to these guys, making these scammers richer, and their followers poorer.
@@thahirshibu5042Another thing is that since they have this "very easy plan to get rich quick", when you end up, surprise surprise, not rich quick, you either have to "trust the process" or "try harder".
So...to become rich, all I have to do is rent an expensive car and make UA-cam, TikTok and Instagram videos showcasing it while creating fake pitches about how to "successfully make tons of wealth"? Alright, bet.

it's amazing how UA-cam allows these people to make their shady sales-pitch to millions of people on their site, but at the same time CENSOR others/words/phases that expose the truth on other questionable subjects...is there a "kickback" on allowing this??
Scammers, especially people selling MLMs and pyramid schemes have ruined the word "mentor" for me. And anytime someone talks about "retiring early" and "looking for better opportunities", I'm already checked out of the conversation.
Tai Lopez: "Look at the lambo I just rented and put into my piece of shit garage. I'm rich. But wealth doesn't matter. What matters is love. But here's my expensive course, so you too can be rich."
Over the years i have developed this allergic reaction to "experts" standing in front of a white boards on witch he soon will write "steps" and "truth".
Having experienced years of management standing in front of various Flipcharts, I naturally assumed anyone standing in front of a whiteboard was also self-delusional.
I bought a course from Grant Cardone. It was "on sale" for $100. It was such nonsense. Every video I watched was just him telling stories about his life. They were all 20 minutes or longer and you couldn't skip ahead of them to a section that you actually wanted to look at. I don't remember how much I had access to it, but I gave up on it because there was almost 0 practical info. Just "motivational" stories about how he eventually wore down his wife enough, after constantly getting rejected by her, to marry him.
I have enjoyed his books. At least the man knows something. 😄 this video should have swapped him for Dan Lok. That guy was always shady. Oh what about the latest guy with the Alpha Meditative practice?? He's super annoying 🤣

Cardone’s 10X rule is ridiculous. If you set a goal that’s 10 times higher than what’s possible and you get exceptional results, you’ll fall 90% short of your goal.

Every word, every angle, and every second of an online personality's existence is meticulously planned. The sooner you realize that, the easier you'll find it to disengage with the circus.
These gurus don't actually have specific steps on locating sources for investment capital, creating proposals, templates for proposals, or methods on identifying equitable assets or creating equity to begin with, they just give out motivational speeches with vague wording
Almost nobody is self made, I'm sick of hearing people boast about something that is very nearly impossible. Either being given opportunities that others wouldn't get, having a leg up because of a wealthy investor supporting you, or employing literally anyone to assist in whatever your venture is, you are almost always going to have assistance from somewhere. You may do the work, but to dilute yourself with delusions of propping yourself up is pure ego.

I've always been skeptical of the get rich quick schemes. I watched a friend of mine piss thousands of dollars away. I tried to tell him but was called a hater.
Used to work for one of these fakes - Elliot Wise. I swear they are all the same. Any time you are impressed by such a personality, then ask yourself - if someone is among the best of the best in their trade - would they really sell their secrets out for anyone to be able to compete on their level?
I think it was wildly inaccurate to say that Tai Lopez simply "went viral" with his "In The Garage" video...The dude fuckin PAID to have that video shown as an advertisement across ALL of UA-cam. It didn't matter what you were trying to watch; you got the Tai Lopez ad. Moon didn't even mention that it was an ad we all watched against our will
This showcases two powerful and depressing realities. One: the more willing you are to ruin other people's lives, the more potential you have of becoming rich. And two: Karma doesn't always win.
Reminds me of a quote. “Power is given only to those who dare to lower themselves and pick it up.” All of the most successful people are usually scum. Makes you think, what’s the point of working hard and being honest.
In print media, people were making ads that looked like articles. Very soon, those ads were ruled deceptive and had to come with a “paid advertisement” tag at the top. These vids needed such a warning
Fernando is probably the most tragic. He's one of the guys that got lucky and made a million on crypto. If his mindset was in the right place he could have called it good, gotten a proper fanatical advisor and could have been set for life. Instead he sought a life of vanity.
If these gurus really were successful business owners they wouldn't waste their time on social media, selling quick rich schemes. Thank you moon, for calling out these marketing stunt goons.
Jason used to film all his dumb TikTok videos at the Orlando outlet mall. I used to do art installs for brands there and I'd see him filming in the parking lot. There's a restaurant on the corner with a nice looking facade, and if you film at the edge of the lot facing it, the shot picks up the valet where all the nice cars are, making it look like you're at a fancy resort or something. I'm pretty sure that Mazarati of his was a rental from down the street. The Instagram sticker he used to put on it was just a window cling, I've seen him put it on and peel it off.
i will always remember being a kid and watching vanossgaming videos and the ad was always "hey guys here in my garage with my brand new lamborghini... blah blah blah knowledge books blah blah blah" then a little while later even they mocked those ads
*Gurus Apostrophes are used to denote possession. The gurus are not possessing anything. It's really not difficult to figure out when and when not to use an apostrophe.
I kind of figured tai was bsing about the books when I saw them in his garage. I rarely sit down and read a book unless I have to, but even I know books should be kept in a cool dry place
With the way men like Moon, Upper Echelon and others are educating that attentive masses with wisdom, knowledge and understanding, we most protect them at all costs because they are true heroes. Heroes this world needs more of.

@@daniels.2720 It's poor dumb people who are desperate. People making six figures see directly in 1 second through all these guys. From the way they talk, literally anyone who sells advice on how to get rich. It's the most pathetic way to be rich. To steal from those who have nothing. I'm glad most aren't actually rich and use all their saving to rent a ferrari for one day.
A huge reason why tai’s video popped off is that he pushed people into seeing it via ads. It didnt naturally gain that many views. It was blasted all over youtube videos as a preroll ad.
Its amazing how many of these scammers were also pushed by stuff like Clickfunnels and UA-cam and other social media platforms. Its disgusting how they then start to collaborate with each other or ppl with some credibility
Russell Brunson isn't any different. I actually think he was replaced in 2023 by an AI.
Keep up the good work bruv. You’ve opened my mind to a lot and you need way more credit. Thank you for exposing these narcissists,scammers and psychopaths.
Does anyone remember Amway? My buddy's parents growing up had blown over $10k and had an entire garage full of motivational tapes, videos and books from Amway stars trying to get people convinced how easy it was to just use your friends to get rich (with nothing to show for it in their own business). His family was always selling the latest multi level marketing, it was funny because all you had to do was look at their personalized plates on their car to know which product they were selling. Mellaluca, KM or Matol were other brands they sold. They were always broke. His dad would always try to pitch you regardless of the situation, so I eventually had to go no contact as it got out of hand.
Mellaluca was a disease in the suburbs I grew up in those moms were selling it by the pound
Still have ptsd from getting scammed into a mentorship that turned into an Amway pitch.
Pyramid scheme
My previous employers were the same, tricked me into going to a seminar once. Bunch of absolute idiots there, safe to say I got out of that job pretty quickly
My family did Amway for a while. But the good thing is that we got a lot of good quality goods that we used for years.
The part that made me laugh the hardest about Tai Lopez's "here in my garage" video was the fact that the bookshelf itself was in the garage in front of the car instead of, you know...anywhere else in the million dollar mansion where it would be infinitely more convenient to grab a book.
I already knew the guy was full of shit in terms of what he was selling, but that made it so blatantly obvious that the bookshelf itself was more of a meme than the Lamborghini, IMO.
All about selling your bullcrap😂 dudes such a fugazi
Years ago, drop shipping guru videos were popular and I almost fell for it.
What was so enticing about them?
@@thahirshibu5042get rich quick schemes
@@thahirshibu5042 nothing. Just didn't know better. I didn't have UA-cam premium, so I didn't fully realize they were ads and I was like, that could actually work. Then I started realizing, wait, these guys look like their videos are in model apartments and they're just selling courses then I still have to do everything lol.
@@thahirshibu5042Picture this: You're a 17 year old, lazy, with no idea in what to do in life. Your parents want you to do something, but you only seem to want to play videogames or anything else all day. Then you see this guy who's a 22 year old talking smack on the internet showing off his expensive cars and lavish lifestyle, and you think to yourself "I want this, I need this life too, what's his Instagram again?".
Bang, you fell into his trap.
The attracting thing about them is that they speak differently than your parents or your teachers, who actually want good for you. They cuss, they talk angrily, they don't give a fuck about anything else, they managed to "crack the code" and get rich doing what the fuck they wanted to do, "just with a little adjustment."
That's what entice teens and impressionable adults to these guys, making these scammers richer, and their followers poorer.
@@thahirshibu5042Another thing is that since they have this "very easy plan to get rich quick", when you end up, surprise surprise, not rich quick, you either have to "trust the process" or "try harder".
So...to become rich, all I have to do is rent an expensive car and make UA-cam, TikTok and Instagram videos showcasing it while creating fake pitches about how to "successfully make tons of wealth"?
Alright, bet.
Basically be a meme
Just stay away from suitcases.
That’s exactly what the second guy thought of😂😂😂
A majority of fashion influencers are pretty much what you explain

Ugh that one 🤮
I bought his nonsense back in the day but as a teenager didn't drop too much cash on it.
the book is good but Robert is super shady
@@FacelessBillions Why is he shady ? lol I have his book on my amazon wish list but haven't read it. I thought he was lying when in one video he claimed he didn't invest in stocks and shares. As far as i'm aware he mostly invest in real estate and bitcoin. Idk what dodgy things he's done
it's amazing how UA-cam allows these people to make their shady sales-pitch to millions of people on their site, but at the same time CENSOR others/words/phases that expose the truth on other questionable subjects...is there a "kickback" on allowing this??
Scammers, especially people selling MLMs and pyramid schemes have ruined the word "mentor" for me. And anytime someone talks about "retiring early" and "looking for better opportunities", I'm already checked out of the conversation.
I'm proud to say I legitimately had never heard of any of these people before.
No, I have UBO, the "better YT premium" :) @RoarTheRapper
Bullshit, not even Tai Lopez?
Knawledge
@RoarTheRapper some people have a blind spot for ads.
@@thumpertorque_honestly, Tai Lopez is one of the few on here I know about the most and it was by complete chance.
You should do a video on all the crypto guys who’s life has ended in the last few years and who publicly said this would happen to them 🙌🏼
Tai Lopez: "Look at the lambo I just rented and put into my piece of shit garage. I'm rich. But wealth doesn't matter. What matters is love. But here's my expensive course, so you too can be rich."
Underpants gnomes be like:
Step 1. Put a bunch of books in your garage and rent a lambo
Step 2. ...
Step 3. Profit.
Over the years i have developed this allergic reaction to "experts" standing in front of a white boards on witch he soon will write "steps" and "truth".
Having experienced years of management standing in front of various Flipcharts, I naturally assumed anyone standing in front of a whiteboard was also self-delusional.
If they stand next to a lambo or private jet there legit right? ...right? 😅
I saw the thumbnail and thought Ty Lopez died. Now I have to return a ton of stuff because I prematurely ordered a ton of party supplies.
😅
Tai is still sitting in his garage reading books in the driver seat of his new Lamborghini.
The man loves his KNAAWLEDGE
Materialistic thiiiiings.
Leather bound books, I might add. No softcover nonsense
Knaaaaw❤
Doesn’t matter who it is. I love when Coffeezilla gets a shoutout. Man deserves his flowers now.
You forgot to mention that "Here in my garage" became so infamous because it ran as an ad on almost every video for a month
For *months.
I never knew this guys name until now😅
"Here in my garage" was a brilliant piece of comedy.
I bought a course from Grant Cardone. It was "on sale" for $100. It was such nonsense. Every video I watched was just him telling stories about his life. They were all 20 minutes or longer and you couldn't skip ahead of them to a section that you actually wanted to look at. I don't remember how much I had access to it, but I gave up on it because there was almost 0 practical info. Just "motivational" stories about how he eventually wore down his wife enough, after constantly getting rejected by her, to marry him.
😂
I saw through this guy a long time ago. He is rich because people are dumb enough to pay for motivational crap. Especially, paying him particularly.
Grant is the sleaziest scumbag I've ever seen.
That’s…not the W he thinks it is
Imagine annoying your gf into submission to be your wife. Yeah that’s the foundation for a strong relationship
I have enjoyed his books. At least the man knows something. 😄 this video should have swapped him for Dan Lok. That guy was always shady. Oh what about the latest guy with the Alpha Meditative practice?? He's super annoying 🤣
I hope all the people who were scammed learned a valuable lesson and are more skeptical now
Well, sometimes people had to eat sh*t to learn their lessons....😏
Nah they are just signed up to Andrew Tate now unfortunately haha
I hope they didn't. The more people that take Ls the higher the chances that I'll take a W.
problem is theres a sucker born everyday. u cant stop that. these guys didnt invent snake oil. its been around for as long as humanity has.
@@morikibbutz2734 I can respect the hating 😭☠
You know I don't feel bad for fake guru's who suddenly "disappeared". They got it coming to them
I remember a couple years ago a family member tried getting me into crypto. The year after it was NFTs. If they didnt have rich parents to live at home with theyd probably be homeless. Looking forward to financial advice this coming Christmas party.

Thank you for shining light on things a lot of people fall for
Cardone’s 10X rule is ridiculous. If you set a goal that’s 10 times higher than what’s possible and you get exceptional results, you’ll fall 90% short of your goal.
The goal is not to hit it, it’s to aim higher and raise your expectation of what you can do raising your minimum.
It worked when I was in a call center, lawn care & auction worker basically any work you do based on production.
the government needs to hold companies accountable for promoting scams on their platform.
I'm sorry, but that will likely never happen. If the scammers pay the politicians to keep quiet, would they ever be held responsible?
Who do you think was paying them and telling them what to say? The CIA loves funding stuff like this. They're behind anything that makes people stupider.
*We* need to hold companies accountable for promoting scams on their platforms.
In case you haven’t noticed, the government can’t be trusted to do shit!
You're asking the government to do something good God no
The government is intended to keep us poor
This was so well done. Never watched this channel before. Amazing editing and compellingly presented stuff.
You missed Dan Lok, the worst of them all. That guy couldn't even lie well, and people still believed him.

Another fake guru that you forgot to mention is Robert Kiyosaki, author of the “Rich Dad Poor Dad” book. He’s been riding the wave since before the internet using books and was involved in promoting and selling several shady courses related to drop shipping/shopify and crypto (basically any get rich quick scheme).
that guy do be shady asf
ngl his book rich dad poor dad is very good but just buy that from him and nothing else, everything else he makes is sketchy
He is a real billionaire and businessman
@@timothygibney159 definitely not a real billionaire. If you google his net worth it’s only about 100 mil. And I never said he wasn’t a businessman, even snake oil salesman are businessman. He made his fortune preaching something that he pretended to know but had never actually done.
@@timothygibney159No. He isn't. He is worth nothing other than grotesque amounts of debt.

And Andrew Tate was stupid enough to copy the scammer's business model. Trump University actually came before Tai's courses.
sounds like the American Education system

Good man. Appreciated
Not to mention Grant Cardone is also a member of Scientology. The guy’s a nut.
Ah makes sense why I hate that guy
Never heard of him but I wana search but not going to lol
These gurus don't actually have specific steps on locating sources for investment capital, creating proposals, templates for proposals, or methods on identifying equitable assets or creating equity to begin with, they just give out motivational speeches with vague wording
Almost nobody is self made, I'm sick of hearing people boast about something that is very nearly impossible. Either being given opportunities that others wouldn't get, having a leg up because of a wealthy investor supporting you, or employing literally anyone to assist in whatever your venture is, you are almost always going to have assistance from somewhere. You may do the work, but to dilute yourself with delusions of propping yourself up is pure ego.
True
Exactly!!!
@@kristovapalenkova5884 fr tho
That's not true. Self-made success does happen, not as much as it once did.
You will always be a nobody with that attitude
I bought Sam Oven's program for 2000$ back in 2019. 4 years later, he took down the entire program down along with his facebook social group, though claiming I would get life time access to everything...

Why would u pay 2k….
@@jon70082$2k ain't that much
I mean, you kinda had that one coming.
bruh that 2k made me 100 lol that was the course that changed everything for me, blame yourself for not taking action on it smh
I got his courses by pirating lol. It was more of a mindset philosophy course.
I've always been skeptical of the get rich quick schemes. I watched a friend of mine piss thousands of dollars away. I tried to tell him but was called a hater.
Tai was way more proud of his library than his car collection, remember? lol
Success Gurus are no different from those celebrity preachers. But i don't blame them, people are too gullible for me to feel sorry for them anymore
What a cruel perspective.
@@ShastaOrange The truth does care about our feelings

a wise man once said, if it's too good to be true it normally is!
I think it was wildly inaccurate to say that Tai Lopez simply "went viral" with his "In The Garage" video...The dude fuckin PAID to have that video shown as an advertisement across ALL of UA-cam. It didn't matter what you were trying to watch; you got the Tai Lopez ad. Moon didn't even mention that it was an ad we all watched against our will
Moon: "Where they ended up is incredibly sad and dark."
Me: "I agree... I'm sad that they're not suffering more."
We are not the same.
😂😂😂 +1
The main guy in the thumbnail is the reason I signed up for ad free UA-cam…his ads kept popping up every single day 😂
This showcases two powerful and depressing realities. One: the more willing you are to ruin other people's lives, the more potential you have of becoming rich. And two: Karma doesn't always win.
Karma plays a very long game
Cope@@Financiallyfreeauthor
Yeah, but for that Suitcase guy, it paid back with interest.
Reminds me of a quote.
“Power is given only to those who dare to lower themselves and pick it up.”
All of the most successful people are usually scum. Makes you think, what’s the point of working hard and being honest.
Wrong on both counts but it’s interesting to see where your minds at
Sad? Dark? Not at all. They reaped what they hath sewn. Equivalent exchange.
In print media, people were making ads that looked like articles. Very soon, those ads were ruled deceptive and had to come with a “paid advertisement” tag at the top. These vids needed such a warning
My momma always told me, if someone is willing to share their hustle with you then you are being hustled.
The irony that while watching this I received several random guru ads. That makes me chuckle.
In my language "Lop ez (Lopez)" means "This steals"
😂
Which language?
Fernando is probably the most tragic. He's one of the guys that got lucky and made a million on crypto. If his mindset was in the right place he could have called it good, gotten a proper fanatical advisor and could have been set for life. Instead he sought a life of vanity.
He got rich off of loans from Argentine organized crime, which he had no intention of paying back.
Take a crack at the new age gurus. Andrew Tate, Iman, all the drop shipping clones
7:40 Did anyone notice Moon posted an article from 2022, said "...fast forward a few months," then cut to an article from 2017?
@xoxo_grease Yep I noticed iit
That was brilliant Moon thank you ❤
If these gurus really were successful business owners they wouldn't waste their time on social media, selling quick rich schemes. Thank you moon, for calling out these marketing stunt goons.
Jason used to film all his dumb TikTok videos at the Orlando outlet mall. I used to do art installs for brands there and I'd see him filming in the parking lot. There's a restaurant on the corner with a nice looking facade, and if you film at the edge of the lot facing it, the shot picks up the valet where all the nice cars are, making it look like you're at a fancy resort or something. I'm pretty sure that Mazarati of his was a rental from down the street. The Instagram sticker he used to put on it was just a window cling, I've seen him put it on and peel it off.
Having all of these channels full of quality content is incredibly impressive. Magnates Media is a favorite of mine.
Yea. Videos are always quality, compelling, and intriguing, everytime. Good job sir.
Tai Lopez got 10 bookshelves full of shit he’s never read 😂
Tai Lopez is in a league of his own. 😂
He is in a Lamborghini of his own. Possibly in a Hollywood Hills of his own.
The GOAT of all gurus
The untouched books lining the walls of the place he stores his rented cars really makes me think Tai Lopez is great at booksing.
The dude “I am in a tough spot. Let me go and borrow some $ from the most dangerous gang in the country. Yep. Sounds like a win” 👍🏻
We all remember where we were when we first heard the words "Here in my garage"
Back when ads were all Mike Chang 60 second abs and Tai Lopez in his garage
i will always remember being a kid and watching vanossgaming videos and the ad was always "hey guys here in my garage with my brand new lamborghini... blah blah blah knowledge books blah blah blah" then a little while later even they mocked those ads
Legendary video

This video also shows how there’s still real gangsters out there who will just pull up and mean business.

Apostrophes are used to denote possession. The gurus are not possessing anything. It's really not difficult to figure out when and when not to use an apostrophe.
Moon and coffezilla are just special, and deserve a bigger audience
I kind of figured tai was bsing about the books when I saw them in his garage. I rarely sit down and read a book unless I have to, but even I know books should be kept in a cool dry place
11:52 Moon quoting a SunnyV2 video? That is surreal.
Maybe a crossover video is a possibility

Grant Cardone is a Scientologist. I think someone's personal belief/ faith, religion, etc matters
It's good you're putting this content out here because these people need to see all these fakes and phonies!
With the way men like Moon, Upper Echelon and others are educating that attentive masses with wisdom, knowledge and understanding, we most protect them at all costs because they are true heroes. Heroes this world needs more of.

Corny ahh
you're right, putting people on point is important.
i agree in a form.....to me heroes are those out there getting the truth of corrupted institutions, Coffeezilla is one of them, whistleblowers of any kind, people who expose the deep ends of any institution whether government, corporation or army
Thank you dude, even though I never bought into these gurus in the back of my mind there was always questions. So thank you for answering them. Now I can rest easy
