Was Brad a fraud?

I know he was the person he said he was from an appearance standpoint, but my question is did he make up his career?

He always said he made like 300k a year doing whatever it was.


Was it ever proven true/false?

Semi-fraud I think. He really was working in finance but was pulling like $75k beaver dollars and had a really unstable personal life, frequently unemployed, sleeping on his parent’s couch, bouncing around.

He was projected to make that much but sometime around age 24/25 he made some bad decisions that just kept snowballing and made him the man he is today. His mind has a hard time reconciling that so he’s mentally ill now.

Cool dude, but just like most people on the misc def exaggerated how much he was making.

I could see his parents helping him pay his condo, and getting fired for being too rinsed, and not showing up to work...His parents bailing him out once again.

One year he made like 170K and it was such a big deal he stuck the payslip up on his fridge. Then he lost that job for doing pepsi with interns or something.

He got knocked out in less than 10 seconds by ThomasCFA, one of the funniest and most embarrassing things ever to happen to a miscer.

I think his dad set him up with a job or something?

Brad was never a fraud. He could get a little manic when the Pepsi kicked in, but he was very open about his life, warts and all.

Unaware. How old was he claiming and how old was he really? I think he used to say he was around 31.

He was like 2 years older than he claimed. Weird thing to lie about on here.

I remember donald2yucky saying brad was older than he claimed long ago which always made me suspect he was one of brad's alts.

Brad struck me as a dude who was from a rich family, who was given everything, but he couldn't keep anything because he liked the nose candy and booze a little too much and ****ed everything up.

He is what one might refer to as 'Hooray Henry', but I get it. I went to school with a lot of these chaps. I wish him well.

why does everyone think brad was some privilaged rich guy

he lived in a meh condo wore basic suits, shopped at club monaco and lulemon and went to a normal public university

he was not some upper crust dude lol, totally normal guy (Srs)


reallifealpha is actually from a very upper class/privilaged background however (surprisingly)

Brad himself liked to paint that image that he was some Wolf of Wall Street finance mogger. In reality, he just did insurance sales or some pleb chit.

Didn't he lose his condo and was living in his parents cabin? He also drove an old ford escape

His parents are probably rich but he isn't from the looks of it

There were some things he was obviously lying about.

That Tanya milf from the bar story was bogus, hence the reason he deleted the thread.

I could swear reallifealpha said he grew up pretty poor and that's what drove him to hustle hard and make something of himself.

guy sounds like he spends most of his time partying, while living on his parents' dime. he would constantly get caught frauding on his patagucci account. just couldn't make up a good story and stick to it.

He might have been an inside wholesaler of mutual funds, I spoke with him a long time ago. He couldn't really explain what he did but "sales"
