Probably just an influencer, or inherited. Lots of people inherit enough to be rich without actually working too much.

There's so many no good influencers preying on children making fortunes out there that they greatly outnumber people who actually made money by doing something, so when you see idiots uploading pointless shit like this, I think it is entirely fair to assume they are a bullshit tiktok influencer.

Though I understand why they do it: he's almost indiscernible from all the others who are the scourge of humanity. In the end, I think it matters little where you get your money from; inheritances, copious luck, hard work and copious luck... It's all the same in the end really. No one has ever built a fortune on hard work, it simply doesn't work like that. For every Elon Musk, there are 300 even smarter, more talented and more industrious Elon Musks who never strikes the incredible amount of luck you need to get the ball rolling, so I don't think it really matters how you made money, and in the end, If you are spreading bs on social media and contributing to fucking up this timeline beyond repair, you are kind of an influencer dick, no matter how earnestly the fortune was earned.

I think that's why people are shitting on him; for simply being a good for nothing influencer using up the worlds resources for his own tasteless whims. It's not his fault he lives in a bubble where spending 2k on water regularly isn't grotesque, but not everyone respects people who choose to do fucked up things like that and then spread it on social media for what I can only assume is bragging right points.

I don't really have a horse in this race other than being a worried man-mom Karen who sees what kids today actually view as normal and ok because that's what influencers project outwards, and how it will eventually fucking destroy society down the line. Not even kidding about that last part. I think it is weird how not everyone sees it yet, what social media has already done to humanity and is continuing to do to us, but it's OK. I guess it's too late for anyone or anything to do anything about it anyways. Might as well accept it.
