I'm not sure if this fella has been discussed before but I genuinely don't understand it/him.

Similar (to some extent anyway) to the other fella we discussed here but the legendary thread was deleted. By the man himself.

Anyway, who the actual fk is this https://www.instagram.com/danbilzerian/?hl=en

Been around for yonks. I have a soft spot for him. Google his lawyer's letter to a woman trying to extort cash from him. Hysterical.

Never heard of him. But within seeing several pictures on that site, I am very jealous of that manly beard.

I think His father was a Companies trader in the eighties, made loads of money, lost loads, sent to prison, made more when bailed etc etc. Dan's money is largely his fathers but he is well known on the world poker scene too, I guess if you can play big stakes you win big too.. Likes guns, girls and his cat.

I'm sure he tried SEAL/BUDS training then got booted for drugs, maybe urban myth

Looking at the pics I am sure he does, and a lot. But I wondered where his money came from....

IIRC, and I may not, his dad was a dodgy bd ripping people off and little Dan has been living off of daddy's money but claiming to have won it all playing poker.

Here we go:

"A Wall Street Journal investigation has revealed that his father, Paul Bilzerian - who now resides on St Kitts in the West Indies - is a convicted fraudster who has paid only $3.7m (£2.3m) of a two-decade old $62m (£39m) judgement against him."

I believe so, although questions have been raised in the past, especially due to his Dads dodgy past dealings.

Dude's a legend. If you could, you would, unless you're a pussified male that is.

Bloke seems like a total douche. Despite the instagram persona, he drips of insecurity / needing social reassurance. Say you have that amount of funds from dad. Why feel the need to shove it all on instagram? "hey guys, look at me and the hot chicks". Yep, that's impressive. However, whilst they are hot chicks, they are also sluts wanting your money. I could go and fk a slut for money tonight very easily, although admittably my expendature would be smaller so I might have do do her in a canoe not a yacht.

Either way, it might impress a few people on the internet - but in reality everyone knows that no-one respects a bloke that pays for sex.

TL;DR? Not cuddled as a child.

I'm pretty sure a toothless hooker on an industrial estate in Ipswitch cannot compare to those girls. I'm sure instagram is a tool he uses to recruit his female entourage. He's not harming anyone.

My understanding is...

His dad made lots of money illegally however managed to squirrel a lot of it away in trust funds for his children which his son [Dan Bilzerian] made use of to forge a career as a poker player in games which had a very high buy in figure. Due to the persona he portrayed whilst playing poker and the lifestyle he publishes on social media, he's gained notoriety and huge fame which subsequently has earned him a whole lot more money. He tried on numerous occasions to pass the Navy SEAL program however failed each time.

All a bit "meh" to me but I'm sure it impresses impressionable boys/men and young ladies who crave exposure.

I'm inclined to agree, I'm sure I read an interview where he came across as desperate to be liked and quite insecure.

Living his lifestyle in private would be pretty awesome and quite enviable but the constant need spread it all over the internet for "likes" is a bit sad.

That and the source of his (fathers) wealth is pretty questionable too.

If I had seemingly limitless funds I'd probably go crazy and spend every weekend flying around the world on a massive Gulfstream with my cat and goats and crowd of filthy "Instagram models" too but I wouldn't be sharing it with the world and I wouldn't be expecting the whole internet to pat me on the back and tell me how awesome I am for doing it.
