    i don't see how this happened unless this dude was so oblivious and egotistical he actually thought he could do it without staging the whole thing.

    a savvy person with millionaire resources could stage a bullshit rags to riches story to credulous dumbasses no problem, probably fleece followers for donations while they're at it

      See, that's just it. He did stage it and he still failed. Some dude with a few million isn't going to have the connections or the clout to claw back up the ladder.

        how do you fuck that up all he needs is to give himself back his own money, then say it's from his entrepreneurial shit? surely he didn't actually get rid of his resources, or he wouldn't have any to 'cancel' the stunt with
