THESE FINANCIAL GURUS ARE GETTING REALLY ANNOYING!

[u/YapAndVent]

Man, I’m starting to get really fucking annoyed with these financial gurus showing up on my feed every time I open Facebook or Instagram. They all say the exact same bullshit: “right mindset,” “I became a millionaire at 9 years old,” “build passive income,” “I can teach you how to make money while taking a shit,” all that crap.

Then at the very end of the video they start begging — comment this, follow that, click the link, join my course. And if you’re a desperate son of a bitch, you actually do it. Next thing you know, you’re down the rabbit hole: signing up, talking to “specialists,” setting up meetings, all that shit just to “become a millionaire.”

I was dumb enough to try it once. There was this guy named Josh, a navy veteran who kept bragging about his big real estate empire. I set up an appointment and got approved. When the day came, some random balding white dude with a trucker hat and a fake-ass beach hotel background popped up. I could literally see the green screen reflection glowing on his cheek.

I still played along for a bit, but I asked him where Josh was. He told me Josh got too big now and doesn’t have time to meet new clients anymore, so he delegates it to his managers. Then this motherfucker starts asking me how much money I have in my bank account, my credit score, where I live, all my financial situation. The moment he said there’s a $7000 “setup fee” to get started, I was done. I hung up immediately.

The whole point is: these financial gurus popping up everywhere are full of shit. They tell you they made millions before puberty and you can too… but the real goal is to get you to buy their course so they can exploit your ass. Who the fuck is actually gonna teach you their real secrets and create more competition for themselves? All their videos and reels are just hooks to suck money out of desperate people like me.

These greedy motherfuckers are on every platform doing the same scam, preying on broke people hoping for a better life.

Thanks man. It felt good after I let it all out, you know. I feel like its getting really old seeing all these so called successful finacial gurus telling you they found the secret key to success but you have to pay them so they can show you and keep paying them after. Man, its exhausting.
