Are these Vloggers just a scam? SOL or Shmee etc? (Vol 2)

I think we've found out why Ale hasn't replied to you Tim, it's apparently all your fault!

I couldn't last more than a few seconds, can you summarise?

What appeared to be the drunken ramblings of a man who believes that ‘the universe’ is against him. Very surreal.

You forgot bitter. Don't click the link in the details about the video. It's a load of people telling him how "real" he is and so on.

He seems rather... troubled.

It's tough pretending to be ultra rich.

He's essentially blaming Tim for his bad luck, worried about his GTR as Tim also has one.

I watched the video and he may have mentioned shmee and the 'curse' but I took it as heavily tongue in cheek, in no way is he actually blaming shmee

I had the same problem with my yellow Matiz. Tim, you don't have a yellow Matiz do you?

[Patrick-Peter]

The Shmee-curse is real.

Has Shmee bought some paint from BnQ recently?

Interesting to see Sam (STG) is pals with Philip Kadoorie

Yeah, that got me too. I watched the Lancia video a few months back and thought Phil was cool but didn't really realise who he was. Now there's the Hong Kong link and Phil with the hotel it all started to make sense he was a Kadoorie. If you Google his name his photo comes up as a Non Exec Director so it's confirmed it for me. Seems like a nice guy too!

They've been pals for quite a while. One of my favourate STG videos is where he and Philip were driving his Ferrari 250 in California and a bird poos on them

Mr JWW's 600LT Spider video is just Youtube car perfection 100/100

It does appear to be a genuine friendship rather than staged for youtube

Their reaction is brilliant, I'd be fuming but I guess in that situation you can only laugh

I want to be friends with Phil, he looks like the most fun ever

Great video too, jumping from a DB4 GT to a Honda Beat and enjoying both just as much.

Indeed - both connected to the upper class.

Would be good to see those two along with Lenny / yanni and SOL.....or not

I didn't realise Philip Kadoorie is only 26, I thought he was a bit older than that! I also didn't realise his dad, Michael Kadoorie, is worth 7.5bn....

The car collection, along with the fact that they're regularly moved around between HK, NY, LA and Europe somewhat goes hand in hand with that number!

He's definitely an old looking 26 though, that has really surprised me.

[e46m3Mark]

With 7.5b in the bank I suppose you can be any age you fancy.

[94OD]

I've seen a couple of STG videos with Phillip, he comes across as a decent bloke; I also didn't realise the reason behind his wealth. He certainly does not look 26!
